Tripping the Rift: Ships: Sex Slave 1

Tripping the Rift: Ships: Sex Slave 1

The Sex Slave 1 is Bobafett’s ship. And its bloody huge! It’s almost half the size of the Jupiter 42, and it only has one crewmember. If you were to see the Sex Slave 1 on the road it would be a Lincoln Navigator.

Futurama: S02E07: Put Your Head On My Shoulders

This felt like another one of those filler episodes, just something seasonally appropriate for that time and slightly amusing. You could miss this episode and not miss a single plot point. (but don’t! 🙂 )

Futurama: People: Philip J Fry

Futurama: People: Philip J Fry

Fry originally hails from the 20th century like most of us. He had a dead end job as a delivery boy, a girlfriend who cheated on him, and generally nothing to look forward too.

Futurama: S02E10: A Clone Of My Own

Futurama: S02E10: A Clone Of My Own

There are some truly inspired animation moments in this episode. Fast-paced and action packed, much of the action is based on the Star Wars trilogy (4-6).

Futurama: S02E11: How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back

Futurama: S02E11: How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back

This episode has no shortage of inspired animation moments either. Perspective seems to be the animators’ speciality. It amazes me how much good animation I miss, simply because it’s so seamless and edited like a live-action show.

Futurama: S02E12: The Deep South

Futurama: S02E12: The Deep South

This here’s the story of the crew’s adventures in the mythical sunken city of Atlanta, yes, Atlanta. This great episode is full of rapid-fire one-liners and visual puns, way too many for me to describe.

Futurama: S02E13: Bender Gets Made

Futurama: S02E13: Bender Gets Made

I gotta tell ya, I loves me some Bender, but this episode leaves me unsatisfied. It has dead-on Godfather inferences and the story is well-told. I can’t shake the feeling, however, that there was too much story stuffed into too little time.

Futurama: S02E14: Mother’s Day

Futurama: S02E14: Mother’s Day

More Mom, Yay! She’s just an evil old bitch; I love her. Some steamy past romance comes to the forefront and we get to see a side of Bender never seen without mechanical coercement.

Futurama: S02E02: Brannigan, Begin Again

Futurama: S02E02: Brannigan, Begin Again

DOOP, or Democratic Order of Planets, is similar to the Federation from Star Trek. There’s also all of the alien life-forms o­n the space station, some familiar and some not. Of course, there is the entire space station itself and the scene when part of it breaks off into space.

Tripping the Rift: S01E12: Love Conquers All…Almost

Tripping the Rift: S01E12: Love Conquers All…Almost

Love Conquers excelled in all areas of production. The script was fantastic, with jokes spilling out nearly every line, and enough quick B and C plots to keep the “Romeo and Juliet” A-Plot moving along at a steady pace.

There’s a certain anonymity to the city, a certain coldness, distance—I remember sometimes trying to shake that feeling off.
