I’m 8% robot and I’m sick of this anti robot sentiment

40% titanium, 40% dolomite, 40% zinc, 30% iron, and a 0.04% nickel impurity.

Thank you for remembering the dolomite.

It’s the tough black mineral that won’t cop out when there’s heat all about!

How is this a reboot? Isn’t it just a continuation? Reboot implies they’re starting over…

“Reboot: A new direction taken on by a pre-established story or character. Remake: A retelling of a story audiences have seen before, but typically with a difference.”

This is definition of film reboot. I think you’re referring to a software/hardware reboot.

That would just be turning it off and back on again.

Aha, I always thought reboot and remake mean the same thing

Lexaprofessor ,

Ooh gotcha, thanks for the reply. I would ask though, is this a reboot by that definition? Doesn’t seem to be taking a new direction.

In my opinion it is a reboot.

Show is obviously not “changing” but it’s under new direction (literally) and I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t inject more modern situations and humor into the show.

If it’s good, that’s great! If it isn’t good, then I hope everyone involved enjoyed making it. This isn’t the first time we’ve been through this.

Even if it’s dog shit writers and animators were employed to create it, and that’s a W

“Great is ok. But amazing would be great!”

Lazerbeams2 ,

Fair, but there hasn’t been a decent reboot of anything in forever.

So I’m going in with no expectations to avoid disappointment. If it’s good I’ll be happy, if it’s bad I won’t be surprised

marcos ,

Well, all of the previous Futurama reboots were good.

(Maybe except for the one where the writers decided to protest against too many reboots and inserted all those jokes about how reboots are lame. Or maybe that’s the best one, IDK.)

Lazerbeams2 ,

Sure, but the last Futurama reboot was a long time ago. I can’t think of too many good reboots that have come out since

Don’t forget the all-important 0.04% nickel impurity!

CubCadet ,

It’s what makes Futurama Futurama!

Absolutely goated username

JohnDClay ,

Since it’s had four endings, now five with the most recent reboot, that’d make it 80% reboots

schmaustin ,

Thank you, I was hoping someone had done the math because it felt like more. I’m going to confidently quote this fact without checking it, I trust you.

bamboo ,

What are the 4 endings? The original Fox run, the movies run, and then the Comedy Central run. What am I missing?
