Taste the happy.

Hopefully it turns out as good as the second Futurama movie.  :bow2

In some ways it makes no sense that anybody would bankroll a movie based on this TV show.  But then again, somebody paid for the Strangers With Candy movie.....so anything's possible.

maybe they think it'll do decent now that Michael Cera is the biggest actor in the world?

a modest budget (10mil?) should ensure success

Is it actually going to be in theaters or will it be straight to dvd?

Really looking forward to this, AD is one of my favorite shows - rewatched it countless times, and it's still just so entertaining.

I see this going one of two ways:

1)  it's total fan service, comprised entirely of references from the series with almost no jokes isolated to the movie itself
2)  it's completely stand-alone and loses all of the charm the series developed as a result of its clever handling of the episodic format

...but I will remain cautiously optimistic that they will pull it off with some grace.

I enjoyed the second one much more than I expected to. I found the first one kind of meh.
