We have taken some photos of "Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder". They represent actual movie quality.

• By far my favorite of the Furturama movies posted on 31 August 2009

  This one was great. Loaded with sight gags (old and new), puns (good and bad, LOL) and a fun, fun, fun time. It leaves open the chance for new movies (crossing my fingers). A couple of gags that made me laugh out loud was the "tickle me Bender doll" that goes "Stop touching my junk, you pervert!" LOL! and the beat-up old bus station lady saying "well, this beats Nutly on a Saturday night". The story was well done and time passed quickly and I hated to see it end. Great job, y'all!

• See this movie before you buy it. posted on 31 August 2009

  This movie really was just okay at best. It feels like it would have made 2 decent episodes, but does not work that good as a movie. Probably worth buying at about ten bucks imo since I doubt anyone could suffer through it more than twice.

• Please don't let Futurama end like THIS! posted on 31 August 2009

  This was the worst of all the movies. They started out with their best, (Bender's Big Score) and worked their way down to the very worst. I paid twenty bucks to watch a Futurama movie, not get preached at with mindless anti-development bullcrap. The jokes aren't funny, the story is boring and nonsensical, there is NO character development, and the ending is HIGHLY overrated. I for one hope they have more movies just so this monstrosity isn't the last Futurama ever. The series deserves better than this as a send off.

• Believe what you like posted on 31 August 2009

  Contrary to what people said when they reviewed the film, I really loved it! I loved the sight of characters long forgot in the series (the don bot, Leo Wong, Freeda (I think that's how you spell it, I can't be sure) and others). Sure, every movie taken from a tv series isn't going to be the same. But the fact that its a movie makes it good.
  
  That and the fact that Fry had a tinfoil hat made it better ^^.

• Back to the Old Futurama posted on 31 August 2009

  So some of the past Futurama movies have ranged from "hilarious" to "meh" and in one case just plain bad, but they definitely left on a high point. Out of all of them, this is the first Futurama movie I could have seen that would have possibly made it on a big screen. Regardless of what you thought of the other movies, this one is worth watching before you form any final opinions.

• Now that's more like it! They're back baby! posted on 31 August 2009

  They're back baby! Futurama returns to form after the two previous duds that were Bender's Game and The Beast with a Billion Backs. I was worried that Futurama was past its prime and that maybe it should end after movie #4. But after seeing "Into the Wild Green Yonder" I hope that Futurama is just getting started again!
  
  The movie starts off with our crew enjoying a vacation in New Mars Vegas developed by Amy Wong's parents moments after demolishing old Mars Vegas. During the construction, the Greenorita Eco-Feminist Collective led by Frida Waterfall come to protest against Leo Wong. Fry gets injured in an explosion and gains telepathic powers after a piece of a necklace is logged in his skull. Leela eventually gets fed up with Leo Wong's plan to demolish a large portion of the Milky Way galaxy to build an enormous miniature golf course and joins the Feminitos. From this point, the main story arcs develop:
  
  1) Leela and her eco-feminists work to save a violet dwarf star and a primordial planet. After President Nixon and Zapp Brannigan are bought off by Leo Wong, Leela and the other women of Futurama become fugitives.
  
  2) Fry meets a homeless bum named Hutch who teaches him to block the constant noise of other people's thoughts with a tinfoil hat and is brought into a secret society led by the number 9 man. He must find out who the Dark Ones are and protect the violet dwarf star from destruction.
  
  3) Bender falls in love with the Don Bot's wife, wins a poker tournament, and double crosses most everyone.
  
  4) Everyone comes together in the end to watch Leo Wong's demolition of the dwarf star, the Dark One is revealed, and our crew end the movie fleeing into a worm hole and a touching moment. I hope Futurama returns again!
  
  This movie is massive, though not epic in how much story is laid out. Overall I would say that Bender's Big Score was the biggest story, which you really had to pay attention to in order not to get lost. Billion Backs and Bender's Game were just long. Into the Wild Green Yonder is enjoyable, interesting, and very smooth all the way through. I felt that Billion Backs and Bender's Game were pretty jerky and showed their seams too easily while Bender's Big Score was busy but fluid. Into the Wild Green Yonder is the most seamless movie and feels more like it was always intended to be a feature-length movie rather than be broken into several episodes.
  
  The characterization in this movie is very strong, our heroes act like themselves without being flat or one dimensional like I felt they were in Bender's Game. Happily our characters aren't overly predictable and aren't stuck throwing out recycled gags.
  
  The animation, as always, is incredible. Colors are vibrant, 3D animation is well blended and just plain cool, and there are many visual treats to be had. This is one of the reasons I loved watching Futurama so much during its original television run. There is plenty of freeze-frame fun for fans (whoa, 5 f's!) but not much in the secret jokes or science/math references department. The movie looks stunning on Blu-ray in widescreen, I highly recommend it over the regular DVD!
  
  The audio is in 5.1 surround and fits the movie well. The Sinatra-esqe song at the beginning is performed by Seth MacFarlane of Family Guy fame and has a nice bit of the Futurama theme thrown in. The rest of the musical score works just fine for the movie, I just wish it was a full orchestral one like we got in the TV broadcast days. Oh well.
  
  Both the DVD and Blu-ray are packed with lots of extra features:
  
  * As with all previous Futurama DVD releases, there is an audio commentary track for the whole movie on which members of the Futurama crew including creator Matt Groening and executive producer David X. Cohen give background information while having a good time. [The Blu-ray includes the commentary with video overlays.]
  
  * Other random goodies include a funny Behind the Scenes with Amy's voice and jack-of-all-trades Lauren Tom
  
  * An animatic of the first 22 minutes
  
  * Guides on how to draw Futurama characters
  
  * Five deleted scenes
  
  * 3D models with discussion by the designers
  
  * Zapp Brannigan's guide on "how to make love at a woman"
  
  * Bender's cinema etiquette
  
  * A "toilet paper" animation
  
  * And a short featurette with Penn Jillette, Matt Groening and David X. Cohen in "space".
  
  Very good amount of extras in my opinion. The other unique feature to the Blu-ray would be the more fluid menu design.
  
  So in closing, I am very happy with Into the Wild Green Yonder as far as the movie itself and the Blu-ray. After getting worried about, what I feel to be a mediocre performance in Billion Backs and Bender's Game, I am glad to see movie #4 pack in a lot of the elements that made the series what it was. Great voice acting, fun story, geeky references (anyone spot the Botany Bay?), and fantastic animation. If you've ever liked ANY part of any episode of Futurama this is a sure-fire addition to your movie collection.

  Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder [Blu-ray]Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder

• Of the four "Futurama" films on DVD and Blu-ray, I really enjoyed this one the best... posted on 31 August 2009

  Prepare yourself for another hilarious film in the "Futurama" universe!
  
  The crew of Planet Express are in another hilarious adventure as the crew takes a look at New Mars Vegas and learn more about Leo Wong's goal of creating another golf course. Of course, by doing so, he's destroying any natural vegetation that still exists, as well as exterminating living life that reside on the planet's underground system which prompts a group of Eco-Feminists who protest Wong's golf constructions.
  
  And to make things more interesting, Wong wants to take his passion for golf to the Milky Way and like he has done in New Mars Vegas, he will do to the Milky Way and destroy things to get this way.
  
  Due to Wong's actions, this causes Turanga Leela, Amy Wong and LeBarbara Conrad to join the Eco-feminist protesters and lead them on crusades against Wong.
  
  
  As for Philip, he somehow gains a power of reading minds that leads him to a crazy group of people known as the Legion of Mad Fellows who believe that Fry's new talents is a gift to save the universe.
  
  
  And as for Bender, let's just say he finds some mad love with a fembot who happens to be the wife of a Donbot in the mafia.
  
  
  Expect a lot of outrageous hijinks, all-out fun and crazy adventures as the crew of Planet Express are pit against each other.
  
  VIDEO & AUDIO:
  
  With this animated film created digitally, for fans of "Futurama" and those who enjoy the style of animation by Matt Groenig, you will see how colorful and clear the animation looks on Blu-ray. Featured in widescreen 1:78:1, you get a good balance of digital and 3D-based artwork. Some parts that are quite vibrant and overall good uses of color throughout the film.
  
  As for the audio, audio is presented in 5.1 DTS-HD and there were good uses of rear speaker usage during scenes that involve action-based scenes to parts that include a lot of people and you can hear crowds on the rear speakers.
  
  SPECIAL FEATURES:
  
  There are a good number of special features included on "Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder" and included inside the case are four "Futurama" postcards. Special features included on the Blu-ray Disc are:
  
  * AUDIO/VIDEO COMMENTARY - There is an optional audio or audio + video commentary on Blu-ray. The video commentary features a Picture-in-Picture (available on BonusView Enabled Players) while watching the film and watching Matt Groenig, David X. Chohen, John DiMaggio, Maurice LaMarche, Patric M. Verrone, Michael Rowe, Lee Supercinski and Peter Avanzino together. The audio commentary is quite informative and hilarious as the group is like watching a group of guys having fun, cracking jokes but also talking about certain parts of the film.
  * STORYBOARD ANIMATIC: Into the Wild Green Yonder, Part 1 - Featuring how storyboards were utilized for this film.
  * DOCUDRAMARAMA: How We Make Futurama So Good - An interesting behind-the-scenes feature of how "FUTURAMA" is created and learning how Lauren Tom does all the voices, all the special effects and storyboards.
  * "LOUDER, LOUDER!": The Acting Technique of Penn Jillette - A short segment of Penn Jillette doing his scene for the film.
  * GOLDEN STINKERS: A treasure of Deleted Scenes - Scenes that were not included in the final cut of the film. Instead of full animation, some the deleted scenes are in storyboards.
  * MATT GROENIG AND DAVID X. COHEN IN SPACE! - A video featuring both Groenig and Cohen taking part in a weightless flight ala Zero-G.
  * HOW TO DRAW FUTURAMA IN 10 VERY DIFFICULT STEPS - Featuring a few of the crew drawing several of the characters featured in "FUTURAMA" and some tips and advice by those who draw the characters.
  * 3-D MODELS with Animator Discussion - Animators discussing how the vehicles and the meteor were created in 3D and what changes they went through during the process of creating them.
  * BENDER'S MOVIE THEATER ETIQUETTE - A short segment featuring Bender at the movie theaters and learning about movie theater etiquette such as do not provoke people by throwing popcorn at them or else they may shoot you with lasers and destroy the movie theater.
  * ZAPP BRANNIGAN'S GUIDE TO MAKING LOVE AT A WOMAN - Brannigan shows us how women with one eye and women with two eyes must be treated differently if you are trying to romance them.
  
  I also discovered two Easter Eggs so far on the Blu-ray. Here is a way to access them:
  
  Select 500 - Get a toilet paper Bender animation
  
  At the main menu on the roulette table, hit left with your remote and the center of the roulette table will be selectable. You will find a "Congratulations - You have found a very obscure Futurama DVD Extra" which is Billy West voice acting as Zapp Brannigan.
  
  JUDGMENT CALL:
  
  "Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder" is another hilarious and enjoyable "FUTURAMA" film. I think it's also pretty good timing for a Blu-ray release since there have been no television episodes currently in production but the films on DVD and Blu-ray, fans can still look forward to the characters. And sales for "Futurama" on DVD have been quite positive.
  
  "Into the Wild Green Yonder" definitely was enjoyable to watch on Blu-ray. Picture and audio quality was quite good and there are many special features included, so this release was definitely worthwhile.
  
  The fourth Futurama film is a hilarious take on women's independence, ecology, corporate greed, taking care of endangered species, robot love and more. Definitely incorporates the wackiness that one expects from the television series and previous films. All-out fun!
  
  I've read that the goal for four films of "Futurama" was that they would be split up into sixteen episodes for a fifth season on television. But in a recent interview with Wired, head writer David X. Cohen would not rule out more additional films straight-to-DVD or a theatrical release.
  
  Personally, I think there is much life left in this series especially for the way this film ends. The adventures of Planet Express crew definitely has more exciting potential for more outlandish adventures and much more possibilities for more hilarious, fresh and crazy storylines may it be for television, the Internet or straight-to-DVD or theatrical film!
  
  Nevertheless, every character has their own contribution to the wackiness of this film. And I have to say that of the four "Futurama" films released so far, this is by far my favorite.
  
  "Futurama" fans will definitely find enjoyment in this Blu-ray Disc release.

• I'm so full of luck, it's shooting out like luck diarrhea posted on 31 August 2009

  Green Yonder is a great end to the 4-DVD Futurama series. In fact, it might even edge out Bender's Game as my favorite of the quadrilogy. As others have mentioned, these are long movies, clocking in at 1:30. Bender's Game had a bit of a wandering plot, but Green Yonder manages to keep the storyline very cohesive while also throwing in plenty of laughs. All the old characters are here, even grumpy snail, Zapp Brannigan, and HypnoToad on a MagnaPhallix 302" TV.
  
  The storyline involves Leo Wong (Amy's dad), and his quest to bulldoze or dynamite various celestial objects in order to build a mini-golf park. Leela heads up a group of feminists in opposition. And we get to discover the true purpose of the mysterious "number 9 man" who appears in the early Futurama seasons. Surprisingly, the plot holds together well throughout all 1.5 hours. Oh, and the storyline also involves a leech.
  
  If Futurama were to end with Green Yonder, I wouldn't mind.
  
  And now, let me leave you with these quotes.
  
  
  Justice Scalia (after Leela is acquitted on a 5-4 vote): The vote was along gender lines, so the female Supreme Court justices' votes only count for half!
  
  Calculon (rehearsing an Oscar acceptance speech): I'd like to thank my wife, my agent and my operating system, Windows Vista, for...

• Out With A Bang! posted on 31 August 2009

  The fourth Futurama DVD launches with a hilarious "Mars Vegas" sequence featuring Bender and the Robot Mafia, then moves into epic sci-fi territory. Like the best Futurama episodes, the sci-fi ideas are intelligent enough to have formed the basis of a straight-up sci-fi movie or novel. Plot-wise, without giving too much away, the events are set in motion by a battle of the sexes pitting Zapp Brannigan, Bender, and the rest of Futurama's bone-headed male characters against a rebel "Feminista" gang led by Leela. Naturally, this is set against a billion-year cosmic war that builds to a huge (and surprisingly emotional) climax by the end of the DVD. Note: Make sure to check out the entertainingly phony "Behind the Scenes" bonus feature, and listen for Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane doing some incredible guest vocal work early in the DVD. Snoop Dogg also is also great as the future Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

• Not quite "Billion Backs bad" but almost posted on 31 August 2009

  The fourth and final DVD movie shows, quite clearly, why episodic television rarely translates to feature length with any real appeal.
  
  The first movie was pretty good, the following three are abysmal.
  
  
  "Green Yonder" doesn't sink quite to the depths of horribleness as "Billion Backs" does, but it's got few laughs (I chuckled exactly once) and watches like an episode that's four times longer than it needed to be.
  
  I would rent or avoid this release.

• An epic adventure that feels uncomfortably imbalanced and tense at times posted on 31 August 2009

  Into The Wild Green Yonder is the fourth and final installment in the series of direct-to-video Futurama movies, all of which are scheduled to be cut up into quarters and be broadcast as a "fifth season" on TV. While it's a decent enough episode in its own right and provides an poignant conclusion to the series, it demonstrates the difficulties (not insurmountable, but significant) in adapting Futurama's blend of witty satire, sci-fi action and character development to a feature film.
  
  The first quarter of the movie shows our heroes enjoying a vacation in the New Mars Vegas, recently developed by Amy Wong's wealthy parents. The whole chapter is lighthearted, enjoyable and plants two seeds of the main plot -- Fry gets injured in an accident and gains telepathic powers, while Leela becomes upset at the extent to which the construction is destroying the environment. From here, the main story arcs develop: Leela joins an eco-feminist collective devoted to saving a violet dwarf star and planet and becomes a fugitive; Fry joins a secret society and learns that that the violet dwarf system is a key element in a cosmic struggle for the fate of all biological life in the universe; Bender teams up with Zapp Brannigan and initiates a crucial plot twist. The final scenes tie up a long-running thread in the Futurama saga and provide a touching (yet not excessively sentimental) conclusion to the Futurama series while leaving open the possibility of future adventures.
  
  The massive, epic nature of the movie (a consequence of the feature-length format, as well as the writers' desire to go out with a bang) is responsible both for the strengths and the weaknesses of the episode. On the one hand, the characterization throughout the movie is very strong. Placed in stressful, completely unfamiliar circumstances, our heroes act in ways that are true to themselves for the most part without being overly predictable or coming off as caricatures of themselves. The artistry is impressive as well -- many of the shots of outer space are breathtaking, the opening Sinatra-themed number is a hit, and alert viewers will recognize the return of some of the moving musical themes from a previous movie. The writers and creative staff manage to take an epic adventure and make it connect with the viewer on a personal level.
  
  On the other hand, the sci-fi content of the movie is sloppy and heavy-handed, with little of the nuance and subtlety of Futurama's previous ecologically-minded episodes. In addition, the satirical wit and goofiness that is the hallmark of the Futurama franchise gradually peters out about halfway through the movie -- the jokes don't disappear as such, but most of them are exhausted running jibes, while the genuinely clever lines and gags are unable to lighten the mood of the episode, making portions of the film feel tense and grim. It's clear that Futurama can become imbalanced when forced to adapt to the more massive, slower-developing story arcs of a feature-length film.
  
  While this movie is certainly a mandatory purchase for devoted Futurama fans, who will appreciate the positive elements of this movie and be willing to leave the rest behind, novices are advised to start with the original series (or perhaps Bender's Big Score) before delving into the rest of the movies. As for the future of Futurama, the writers still seem to be capable of producing fresh ideas, and the events of Into The Wild Green Yonder leave several issues open as fodder for future releases (Twentieth Century Fox has just confirmed that Comedy Central has ordered 26 new episodes, to begin airing in 2010). Despite the unevenness of the movies, there's plenty of reason for optimism.

• A Fun and lets hope not finale to the great show. posted on 31 August 2009

  The fourth (and lets hope not final) of the planned straight to DVD Futurama movies, "Futurama: Into The Wild Green Yonder" has arrived and continues the winning formula of the television series and three previous films as well as ties things up nicely should this be the final outing for the Planet Express crew.
  
  The film opens with a new take on the traditional opening and we are treated to the scenic Mars Vegas complete with futuristic interpretations of the class Las Vegas hotels. As the film opens, Mars Vegas is being destroyed to make way for a new and even better Mars Vegas. This does not sit well with Amy (Lauren Tom) as her father is the one behind all of this, and when she learns that he plans to eliminate portions of a solar system to make the universes biggest miniature golf course, she decides to join a militant feminist group with Leela (Katey Sagal).
  As this is happening Fry (Billy West), learns that he has the power to read minds and is recruited by a secret organization who inform him of a great evil that is loose in the galaxy and that he will be the key to preserving the universe.
  
  Bender (John Di Maggio), as usual is happy to drink and griftt his way through life, that is until a affair with a local crime figures wife provides him with some danger and distraction.
  When a planned protest goes horribly wrong, Leela and Amy end up as fugitives and are doggedly pursued by Captain Zapp Brannigan as they race against the clock to save the creatures of the solar system from Leo Wong's planned construction.
  The film is as usual, loaded with laughs and plenty of pop culture gags. Snoop Dogg and Penn Jilette make cameo appearances as do many of the characters from the series.
  
  With sharp picture and sound, this is a very enjoyable new adventure for fans and should add demand for future adventures in the series and provide great viewing enjoyment.
  There are loads of extras which include deleted scenes, commentaries, as well as deleted scenes.
  
  4 stars out of 5

• Best of the 4 posted on 31 August 2009

  I laughed at this one. Out loud. The plot meanders a bit, but it's really four episodes loosely strung together, so I that's to be expected. I recommend it!

• I Loved It! posted on 31 August 2009

  This movie was just as good as Bender's Big Score. I thought it was really funny and a had a great plot. It was a great way to wrap up the series. I'm sure true fan will have nothing but great things to say about it.

• Great ending, craptastic film posted on 31 August 2009

  Well, it's finally over - the four movie Futurama direct-to-video series ends with Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder, and it maintains the trend of the films: it's the worst of the four, making Bender's Big Score look like Blade Runner in comparison.
  
  How did such a classic TV series struggle in the home video space? The chief problem is format - Futurama worked as a half-hour series, but when stretched to 90 minutes, it just suffered. The first film managed to pack a coherent storyline, but some of the humor was sacrificed for fan service (starting with the entire lame sequence of "Box Network" jokes and the hokey opening credits.)
  
  The subsequent sequels, though, didn't fare as well. They began to struggle to fill 90 minutes, and entire pointless 20 minute TV episode sequences would be introduced and go nowhere, with only a thread of the plot making them relevent to the story.
  
  Into the Wild Green Yonder is the worst offender. Bender's affair with a mob boss' moll is introduced and forgotten, having zero to do with the plot, for instance. What was the point of it save having Bender compete in a poker tournament with Fry, who has become psychic from a freak accident? None. The poker tournament itself also forgotten about roughly 5 seconds after it is over.
  
  The most serious problem, though, is what Woody Allen's character complained about in Manhattan: "It's worse than not insightful. It's not funny."
  
  Forgetting the fact that the film is disjointed and scatterbrained like a six year old ADD sufferer on acid - it just isn't funny. Some jokes are telegraphed and predictable, while others aren't funny in the first place (especially the eco-feminists, who are a shrill parody of a parody.) Some blatant fan-service jokes will be lost on non-Futurama fans, while boring to Futurama fans because they'd seen the same humor in many of the episodes.
  
  I don't want to believe that the series was canceled at the right time - I'd rather think that the problems with the films are the fact they had to expand a 23 minute-per-episode format to 90, that they had too long to think about a script (while during the series, they had to push out scripts for 22 episodes fairly quickly), and that they only had to please already established Futurama fans rather than attract new ones since they didn't expect non-Futurama fans to buy the DVDs. One wonders what might have been produced had instead of trying to produce four films, they just produced four new episodes per disc, creating a direct-to-video season instead.
  
  Despite the badness of the script, the film does send the crew off in style, in one of the appropriate places for fan service, wrapping up one or two ongoing stories, and bidding farewell to the crew in a truly poignant moment while leaving the door a crack open for a possible return.
  
  As much as it pains me to say this - I hope they stay away. The closure to the series in the last few minutes is perfect, and I'd rather accept that than another dismal effort that further stains my enthusiasm for the license. Now I know what a Star Wars fan felt after the second trilogy.

• The end...again posted on 31 August 2009

  
  The story is classic Futurama, but many of the jokes are feeling a bit tired and long in the tooth. With this being the anticipated end of the series the need to close any loopholes in the series and give all the characters a fitting good bye sometimes gets in the way of the story. The scope of the story in this release is a bit more epic and scifi compared to past entries.
  
  
  The end of an era, again, maybe. This is set to be the last direct to DVD Futurama and the series bows out gracefully. Futurama was denied a graceful ending to its television days and I am glad to see it was able to capture it here.
  
  
  I hope this isn't the end of the story, but I'd rather see this be the last one than to see the series go downhill. There are hints that it can be great in this DVD but its hard to capture the magic it once had. Here is hoping that we have some more great installments to look forward to and if not to wish Fry, Leela and the gang a well deserved retirement.
  
  

• Best one great ending to Futurama posted on 31 August 2009

  This movie is classic Futurama and I love Fry and Leela as a couple so I loved the ending been waiting on those two to get together for a long time! Best movie out of the series! If you love Futurama you'll love this movie.

  A short review, just so I can give it the 5-star rating it deserves:
  
  This was a really great movie. It completely made up for all the times in the previous movies that the humor seemed a little "off." In this movie, Futurama is back in full force, and let's hope the networks don't ignore it.
