Bender is the worst character
>>221215923The worst character in Futurama or the worst in any show?
the worst thing is when they abandoned the whole fish-out-of-water aspect with Fry. a few seasons in, he was just comfortably living in the future. none of it was new/alien any more. it effectively stopped being set in the future (just some status quo life for him: could have been a fantasy realm he grew accustomed to, didn't matter any more).missed opportunity for jokes like '9/11? Huh? What was that?'
He usually talks too much and his voice is annoying but I think it’s the writers fault for having bad premises and overplaying him
>>221215969Him getting accustomed to living there is part of his arc. Just ignore any season past the 4th
>>221215923Bite my shiny metal ass!
>>221215989>He usually talks too much and his voice is annoyingThat's at least as accurate a description of Fry.
>>221215969By the second season he's comfortable living in the future. It would've been fucking stale if that kept that premise and didn't have him evolve. The show was still kino for its entire FOX run and had one of the greatest endings of any other show
>>221215923Wow now faggy zoomies hate bender
>>221215992>>221216015i get the idea but i dislike it tbqh. could have just toned it down gradually. and yeah by the movies/reboots it was just gone entirely.it's the Harry Potter Effect where at first you're discovering this strange new world along with the main character. they had a lot of fun ideas and got some great jokes out of it. but a few years in?>oh yeah, that's just a Quantum Transfunctioner. anyway, back to our sitcom situations that could exist in ANY time period or setting.wasted of the setting/premise tbqh.also why did only season 1 have original incidental/electronic music each episode? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5mglcL_L6A&t=11s(fuck you i liked it.)
Bender is just Invader Zim with cigars.
>>221216281Accurate lol
>>221215945Think crossed the line post-cancelation episode "Murdet In Planet Express"Where he goes his way, steal Fry's kidney while he's sleeping.Think he got just Flanderized into nothing but asshole. I really don't see season 1 Blender doing that shit.
you misspelled kif
>>221217049No, Kif is bearly featured
>>221215923>tin can homer is haha le funniyeh u rite
Who's the person who got butthurt that Amy was basically a bimbo punchline and tried to make her a main character in the revivsl seasons
>>221218077Plz. Go outside.
>>221216684Didn't the entire cast get flanderizied after the cancellation? Like Fry went from guy not understanding the future stuff to just a full blown retard
>>221218257That's not flanderization. Fry maintained all his other qualities.
>>221218380Flandertsizatierts
>>221217620might've been me.i get she's a postgrad in S01E01, but the joke is her parents paid her way through college. it's a cartoon: characters are fat, they're lazy, they're stupid, they're greedy, it's fine.for some reason the reboot made the point she's on an internship and suddenly she is intelligently, sincerely walking around in a labcoat helping the professor with le science. it's a weird course correction, when that was never her character. it's like the Barney-gets-sober arc of later Simpsons (the one they just abandoned).
>>221215923I dislike Dimaggio voice in almost every role. Bender is well written comic relief but the voice doesnt really fit him
>>221219155i don't get why he's praised as such a great voice actor but he only has the one voice. doesn't that make you a BAD voice actor?you hear the gruff guy in Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines and oh hey, it's Bender. you hear The Joker in that cartoon where he looks like Lobo, oh hey, it's Bender.he plays Steve Ballmer from Microsoft (in a very obvious bald cap) in Pirates of Silicon Valley. one of his only live-action roles. and whenever he talks>oh hey, it's Bender.compare that to Frank Welker or Troy Baker or someone. they actually SHOULD have replaced DiMaggio for the reboot tbqh, i'm sure someone because DiMaggio can do the Bender voice.
>>221215923Your thread is bad and you should feel bad!
>>221219155I've always preferred the italian voice
>>221215923Fuck off.
>>221216684Holy ESL
Bite my shiny daffodil ass.
>>221216015Apparently the Hulu era is ending this year so let's see what kind of note they'll end it on. It has to be open ended if say Apple buys the rights and wants to reboot it again. They ran out of ideas during the Comedy Central era and the VAs sound way too old for their characters. Fry and Leela are supposed to be in their twenties but their VAs are in their seventies. Let the show end for real this time.
>>221215923he was funny on a funny cartoon, you are trying to cover your lack of life experience with hyperbole and exaggeration. pathetic really
>>221220564>Apparently the Hulu era is ending this yearI don't know if that's confirmed yet, the final episode of the newest seasons will be about Fry's relationship with his brother so it doesn't seem like one that would lead to the typical big ending.
