    Loved my time with the movie. Many things to think over after watching. Love the visuals and characters. Has many great themes. I take the main point is live, create, and treasure the time you have. I watched it with subs and after the credits. I saw the cast for English and want to rewatch again with dubs. Ghibli and Miyazaki are truly something spacial and try to get anyone to watch one of there films. They are amazing. Spirited Away maybe my favorite but I love so many others. Where do I rank this one. not sure. I think pretty high. I already want to rewatch it again which is a great sign. Great video with some great insight. The movie makes me think and feel emations. Its a strange movie but also feels very real.

      Thank you! Totally agree with you about Miyazaki and Ghibli, and also about this movie! It's so dreamlike, but also so relatable. I'm hoping to re-edit this video now that the movie is out on streaming, because the clips I could get when it was in theaters were so limited, but we'll see, haha 😅 I think my favorite Ghibli movie is either Mononoke or Howl's Moving Castle, but it's so hard to pick! They're all so amazing

    Wow, I loved this episode. It was on the money all the way through. The music was great which helps a lot. I also liked all the designs. Even Zoidberg looked very classy. I didn't know that was possible! Jessica, the white wooly mammoth with purple shades? So many great jokes, like the Professor saying there is just no way to ..(with the sad music rising) .. WAIT! (And it stops.) 😄 The giant caterpillar which just ends up crunching some fash (that's a word now), and Hermes 'And we're fine.' Bender 'Just kidding, I'm a regular customer.' Wornstrum is back and he always has a pet that follows him. The wormhole is even beautiful in keeping with the fashion theme. This is Futurama at it's best, it's like they pulled out all the stops when writing this one. Easily the best of the season for me. Great music, great fashion, great jokes, what more could a Futurama fan want? It just makes me want to .. (music rising ..) SING .. Farnsworth: Oh shut up!! 😄🙂

    Good comment. Apparently Man is the only animal that befouls its nest. Bill Moyers said the philosophy of "IBGYBG" sums up the problem. When the crunch comes, "I'll Be Gone, You'll Be Gone." He was talking about affordable health care for rural Americans in the 80s or 90s. And why the industry did nothing to fix the looming crisis. Thank you.

    I really love the last 4 episodes. I was only iffy about the first 2 episodes this season. If the rest are like the last 4, then this could end up being my favorite season since the Fox era. I especially love how this season seems to be doing more worldbuilding and actually using the world itself more and showing more locations and technology from the time compared to last season, where I didn’t feel like it did a good job (although I do really like last season minus a couple of episodes). They are getting much better at this and make me excited for the next 20 episodes. Although funnily enough, my favorite parts of the first episode were the NFT stuff bc it was fun to see a museum heist, and the adults not understanding NFTs was hilarious since nobody understands them. Oh, and one last thing, I don’t really think they have a Leela problem. I saw your titles on your other reviews, but I think Leela has been handled well this season.

    Ive long since accepted that Futurama is just one of those shows that writes men as people but women as women. I havent seen the new season yet but I would say that Futurama has a women problem, not just a Leela problem. Im a woman and I love Futurama, I grew up watching it and it will always have a special place in my heart. That being said, it is absolutely not a show I will ever rely on for good female representation.

      Yeah, I'm kind of in the same boat as a femme nonbinary person who grew up watching the show. I think the writing for the female characters definitely tends to be very uneven and it has glaring issues especially in episodes like Neutopia where the female versions of the male characters were incredibly stereotypical I think I used to give it more grace as a product of its time, but it's hard to extend that grace to episodes written today when they should know better and have more women in the writing room

    I really enjoyed the fact the boys formed an actual book club and got super into it. The fact that most of their group most are idiots or people would not read classic literature while the girl's group had more smart people who would like classic literature made for an entertaining subversion. Its like you said, Amy has a PHD, Leela is the most mature member of Planet Express and the doctor is highly educated as well, meanwhile Fry, Bender and Zoidberg couldn't get through a magazine between them let alone a full novel.

      @@renrants I think the line for me was the <virus> episode. Specifically the "emotional support raygun" joke, which makes no sense in universe. Compare that to the similar "Anthrax, for duck hunting" where it was a reference to people needing automatic guns "for hunting" but even in the context of the scene it made sense he would have it.

    I don't know they way they portrayed Fry's mom was nothing like that she was indifferent of Fry but did care and Fry loved her This is why I don't like when the keep bringing it back. As someone that grew up with parents the were indifferent too I identify with Fry my parents are gone too but I don't really hold anger for them.

      I can definitely see how that kind of sucks the way they retconned Fry's parents, I do like a lot of the episodes that are more sentimental with his family, but it is kind of a betrayal of the original storyline for sure

    I never really thought too much about Amy and Leela's relationship. I am more of a Professor Farnswroth and Zoidburg entuusist. Amy saying "I guess not" did make me laugh.

    This episode was ok but it had a glaring plot hole. Why were they all reading books when a few episodes ago they just said people don't read in thr future they dump them on a far off planet. I wish they explained that away with a little joke or something.

      The struggle of being the voice of reason character. Leela does get good ones though like the one that revealed she is really a mutant. Not every vocie of reason character can top Richard from Unikitty. He is one of the best voice of reason characters.

    Nice review by the way, this is something I noticed, I found it weird that Nibbler is yet to appear in season 12, like where is he? because his last appearance was Parasites Regained. My guess is he could be living in Leela's old apartment or something.
