Futurama to Return! Woot!!

[Pappa]

it is great news!

must be better than 'beast with a million/billion backs' though
that was balls

Have you seen "Bender's Game" yet? That was a lot better!

I like all the films.

As do I, if I'm honest.

I always watch them with Felix, and he laughs and laughs all the way through. It's infectious.

the quality of the series and films leading up to 'BWBB' was what made it a disappointment for me.

Can't wait. I really like Futurama. Best thing is Kif's sigh whenever Zapp makes one of his stupid requests. I don't think I'd enjoy the show anywhere near as much without Zapp.



"If we can hit that bull's-eye,
the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards.
Checkmate!"




Zapp: "I'm facing a formidable female adversary Kif, suggestions?"
Kif: "I fail to see any problems sir. You already imprisoned her under directive B10.81."
Zapp: "You mean Brannigan's Law?"
Kif: "Right... that law."
Zapp: "Which one?"
Kif: (sigh) "Brannigan's Law."
Zapp: "Kif, you're my best and most loyal friend, but you've earned my contempt once again. As my protige, you should know that the only one way to deal with a female adversary is to seduce her. This time we are sure she's a woman, right?"
Kif: "Yes."
Zapp: "Good, oh and have the boy lay out my formal shorts."
Kif: "The boy, sir?"
Zapp: "You, you lay out my formal shorts."





"Brannigan's law is like Brannigan's love, hard and fast"




"Yes, comets! The icebergs of the sky, by jackknifing from one to the next at breakneck speed, we might just get some kind of gravity boost.....Or something."




"No, stop! The spirit is willing but the flesh is spongy and bruised."




"I am the man with no name. Zapp Brannigan, at your service."




"The quickest way to a girl's bed is through her parents. Have sex with them, and you're in."




Zapp: "Kif, get me ten cases of Pert and Popular."

Kif: "What shall I do with your Jergens, sir?"

Zapp: "Squirt it on some homeless man with dry elbows."




"...but paper covers rock and rock crushes scissors... Kif, we have a conundrum. Get me some paper, a rock and some scissors."




Leela: "You know Zapp, someone ought to teach you a lesson."
Zapp: "If it's a lesson in love, watch out! I suffer from a very sexy learning disability. What do I call it, Kif?"
Kif: *sigh* "Sexlexia."




"I'll be all over you like a fly on some very seductive manure..."




"All right, amateur hour's over. Let me show you why they call me the Velour Fog...."




"That young man fills me with hope. And some other emotions that are weird and
deeply confusing."





[Scene: Wheel Room. Comets are zooming around all over the place outside the ship.]

Kif: "Sir, remember your course correction?"
Zapp: "No."
Kif: "Well it's proving somewhat more suicidal than we'd initially hoped."
Zapp: "Kif old friend I don't know which disgusts me more... Your cowardice or your stupidity! We'll simply set a new course for that empty region over there. Near that black-ish, hole-ish thing."




Zap: "One day a man has everything. The next day he blows up a 400 billion dollar space station. And the next day he has nothing. It makes you think."

Kif: "No, it doesn't."




Fry: "Uhh, just so we know: who‘s the enemy?”

Zapp: "A valid question. We know nothing about their language, their history or what they look like. But we can assume this: they stand for everything we don’t stand for. Also they told me you guys look like dorks!"





Zapp: "So, this Leela, I know she's a very sensuous woman, but what manner of captain is she?"

Fry: "She's very strict."

Bender: "And mean."

Zapp: "I see, does she by any chance give the crew members spankings?"

Fry: "No, she just makes us do work and stuff."

Zapp: "Good, good. But should she ever institute some sort of bare bottom spanking policy, let me go in your place. I won't have my comrades harmed."




Zap: "Captains log, stardate... ummm...."
Kif: (sigh) "April thirteenth."
Zap: "Stardate April thirteenth..... point two. We have failed to uphold Brannigan's Law. However, I did make it with a hot alien babe. And in the end, is that not what man has dreamt of since first he looked up at the stars?"
[pause]
"Kif, I'm asking you a question!"




"I like your style, Fry - you remind me of a young me, not much younger mind you, perhaps even a couple of years older."




"And like all my plans, it's so simple only an idiot could have devised it!"




Zapp: "Captain's Journal, stardate three thousand point three."
Kif: "Who are you talking to sir?"
Zapp: "You, aren't you getting this?"
Kif: "Ughh" (Kif walks over to typewriter).
Zapp: "We've detected a vessel attempting to break the security cordon around Vergon 6. I'm anticipating an all out tactical dogfight, followed by a light dinner: ravioli, ham, sunday bar."




Kif: "Sir they're headed straight for us."
Zapp: "A well calculated move straight out of Sunzou's classic text The Art of War or my own masterwork Zapp Brannigan's Big Book of War. But the one thing their captain doesn't realize and never will is that..."
Kif: "Sir, they've docked with us and come aboard."
Zapp: "Then I've risked all and lost. Kif old man, I'll be in the escape pod. If that wicker chair I like so much survives the slaughter, have it sent to my P.O. Box." (They come in) "Ahhh!"




Leela: "We're hoping to save the animals of Vergon 6 from extinction."
Zapp: (spits out wine) "Vergon 6! This light dinner is over."
Leela: "Wait, what's wrong?"
Zapp: "The Democratic Order Of Planets prohibits interfering with un-developed worlds, it's a little rule known as Brannigan's Law."
Leela: "But people already interfered, that planet was mined completely hollow."
Zapp: "Yes, by a Democratic Order Of Planets mining crew."
Leela: "This doesn't make any sense."
Zapp: "I don't pretend to understand Brannigan's Law, I merely enforce it."

That always killed me. It's his law, and it's even named after him he is so pompous, but he doesn't even know what it is.




Zapp: "Good morning lover."
Leela: "Uhh, listen Zapp."
Zapp: "Now you're officially my woman. Kudos, I can't say I don't envy you."
Leela: "Zapp last night was a mistake."
Zapp: "A sexy mistake!"




Zapp: "So crawling back to the Big Z like a bird on its belly. Delicious."
Leela: "Birds don't crawl."
Zapp: "They've been known to."
Leela: "Look are you gonna rescue us or not?"
Zapp: "Can't you ask a little more sexfully?"





Fry: "This is a mutiny!"

[Kif sighs.]

Bender: "You're outta here, lady. Zapp's the new captain."

[Zapp handcuffs Leela. Fry already has his shirt off and raises a beer.]

Fry: "All hail the new captain!"

[He unzips his trousers and lets them fall down.]

[The ship speeds away from Stumbos 4.]

[Cut to: Ships Cockpit. Zapp is sat in the pilot's seat.]

Zapp: "Leela, you might be a formidible do-er of the nasty but I am forced to relieve you of your post."

Leela: "On what grounds, you slobbering oaf?"

Zapp: "Failure to prevent a mutiny. Throw her in the brig."






Failure to prevent a mutiny, I fucking love that.

[Pappa]

My son does the Kif sigh.

AND I LOVE FUTURAMA!
