>bring back futurama>may as well be set in current dayWhen did they lose the ability to actually make it seem like the future?These are just modern smartphones.
No no way back. The "eye phone" was an embarassing episode.
>>150482031BUT ANON PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO WANT TO WATCH IF THEY CAN'T RELATE
how are people gonna connect to a future that's never going to happen? at least this way both the show and reality suck
>>150482054Was that the one with the Apple Maps joke?
>>150482031>>150482054they did a whole episode that parodied Napster in the original run though that was more clever.
>>150482358kidnapster was a good play on napster and them stealing their entire identities to implant into robot base bodies was good scifi horror
In the year 2000 America was filled with tremendous hope and awe about "the future". And now we're not.
>>150482031Whys he playing an old FPS on a laptop when they have full body VR games?
>>150482653THIS!!!
>>150482358Yea, they really lost the ability to write episodes that are both timely AND have an interesting sci-fi element to it.NOTHING in that OP image says "this takes place 1000 years in the future." It is literally just a bunch of current day shit.If anything, it seems a bit outdated.
>>150482653because another character was doing that>>150482791Same hereIt's like weirdly they made multiple seasons pre-smartphones, but now that life's a bit more futuristic compared to 2000, they can't really think beyond that
>>150483940The whole industry is afflicted with "can't think"
