• The Futurama Iceberg E...
I think the first issue you mentioned of fry assuming his previous life can be answered with the idea of multiple timelines. Lars could have gone back to one timeline and lived his life, but the OG fry's timeline we see mentioned all the time in the show was untouched and thus plot lines are not inconsistent.
Was looking for a comment like this, also wanted to mention that the time travel code was a paradox preventing one. Perhaps once Lars froze himself again and went into the future, it began to shift back to the timeline we follow for our fry. Sort of erasing that past, since the only other time they mention Lars outside the movie is one episode. The universe possibly erased the paradox and went back to our timeline over a small amount of time. Just a dumb thought I wanted to bring up.
There's also the episode "The Late Phillip J. Fry" when Fry (and Bender and the Professor) go so far into the future they essentially restart time...twice. So the new universe plays out as normal except this time there's no time-code paradox (they also crush their new universe selves).
this is further supported with the fact that lars was considered the paradox clone and was killed by the universe, and not fry
@@Pearcinator presumably the bender and fry of those universes did the same things, as the only difference is that universe 3 was around 10 feet lower than the first one
The episode that always tugs at my heartstrings is "the sting." Where Leela is in a coma from a killer bee sting and fry is next to her bed, begging her to wake up and causing Leela to dream about grieving over a dead fry and her desperate search for him through honey induced dreams inside of her coma dream. Something about the hopelessness in fry's voice when he's begging Leela to please wake up just breaks my heart.
Loved this video, definitely worth the 1000-year cryogenic stasis.
instructions unclear, ended up in roughly in the year 4000 with my ex in a mad max-esque wasteland populated by deadly children
actually, im beginning to think this really is roughly 3000, and im just in a smog-ridden LA, and im pretty sure pauly shore just stole my gf, my bad
I always think about how someone finds a Easter egg as complicated as the one in the game... so much effort!
Probably by looking at source files.
@@prometheus9096 Yeah, that makes sense
at least there was no language decryption involved
One of my favorites is the cursed Waterfall family. I think there are like 5 of them and they all die in the episode/movie they appear in. The hippie that gets eaten by Lurr, Zoidberg's lawyer when he eats the flag, the environmentalist on the penguin preserve, and the feminista and Hutch in Into the Wild Green Yonder.
This video almost cured my crippling Boneitis! Thank You, Bill
dun dun deh deh nuh neh neh den den
Do another! Your insight is brilliant
Cool Video,
If you decide to do a third iceberg video about Futurama,you should talking about the fact that this is not the original universe of fry,in fact, Leela died alone in fry's original universe and this terrifies me a lot.
This is something I often forget about with this show. I think I subconsciously forget it on purpose, because otherwise I do love and think about the episode quite a bit. It's such a dark and depressing thing when you think about it, even though the episode seemingly ends happily.
Meanwhile may have been a perfect ending for Leela and Fry, but The Late Philip J. Fry is an equally canon and parallelly existing sad ending for at least a Leela. (Not to mention a Fry, Farnsworth, and Bender, too, who each got crushed to death at mostly relatively young ages...)
Or rather, maybe I wouldn't say relatively young...
Professor Philo J. Farnsworth was 169 years old at the time of death, Philip J. Fry was chronologically 2043.95 years old, although biologically only 36 years old, and the body of Bender Bending Rodriguez, [Bending Unit Model: 22, Serial No. 2716057] was between 1007 years and 1012 years old, whereas his head was between 2062 and 2068 years old, at the time of death.
Bender's year of birth is unclear, but is most likely to be between 2993 and 2998, with multiple inconsistencies on this date given in the show. His head is 1055 years older than his body due to being left behind in 1947 after the Roswell New Mexico Incident in Roswell That Ends Well. Theoretically, each person and robot could be chronologically be at least twice as old as the universe itself, which would be a number I wouldn't even be able to write down, but that would only apply to the versions of the characters from two universes ago.
Sorry about this. This is my favourite show and I'm stuck in the hospital, and I'm so goddamn bored. And for some reason I really like adding up the ages for these guys, haha. Sorry to dump this crap on you!
I feel like the reason Fry's nephew is named after him and he still has the moment with his mom, cause they are not grieving about him going missing, but him "dying" in the house fire.
It cant be. Fry II (the son of Yancy) was live when Lars apparently died. Stills more probable that the relationship between Yancy and Fry has improved and that's would be why his son has that name
09:45 FINALLY, after decades.. Someone has done it. I low-key wondered about this ever since my first time watching that episode 🤣
I always thought Fry genetic line goes to his mother, not his father. It's said here Frys father is 50% Fry and 25% himself.. Frys mother shares the same Fry-horn/cow lick and nose. Is it said somewhere the father is Frys genetic line?
They say that in the show.... every firstborn son of the Fry family would be named Yancy.... that's why Fry's Father is Yancy sr his brother Yancy Jr.
Also that's why the Luck of the Fryish hits so hard......Yancy Jr broke the tradition for his own brother
Here's me six months later for anyone who might come by and read this; in "Luck of the Fryrish" Yancy Sr specifically says "Just like me, and my **grandfather** and so on." Yancy's father wasn't named Yancy. In "Roswell that Ends Well" Fry supposedly addresses his father directly... in Enos's... downstairs, "Everything's gonna be alright, Dad! ". He's also fully aware of Grandma Mildred and spent time with her before he froze. He's dumb, but not so dumb as to not recognize which grandparents are which. (Also, his mother's maiden name is supposedly Gleissner, but admittedly I can't find a source for that so, you know, grain of salt.)
Much love man, thanks for the video
Thanks Usopp. Looking forward to the Elbaf arc
I need the rest of these ASAP 😂😂
calling the tattoo a "paradox free time machine" isnt quite right, considering that any paradoxes get killed within the movie (lars, paradox hermes, the copies of the pink dude) and it's explained as the universe fixing itself (and also when bender time travels like a million times he ends up opening a hole in the universe and all of his copies explode like popcorn)
The ship may move space around itself but that isn't actually unique. That is 100% how warp works in star trek, the warp drive warps or folds space to move it around the ship and the ships movement is an illusion of perspective, that's what makes inertial dampening so important.
Planet express ship is faster than light, even if it's standing still and the universe moves around it, that prevents physical aging
They gave a decipher sheet , for languages, in one of the DVD seasons. Can't remember which one.
3:09 you didn’t watch that episode when fry went back little fry was already born. He didn’t go back right at the same time he left he went back years later.
No, no. Fry returned the same day that he got freezed. He was 12 years in the past (and also Bender )
Did you wait 7 months for this part 2 so people would have to go back and watch the 1st before this? Cause it worked, well done lol
Fry did still leave at some point so Jurassic Bark and the moms goodbye could be canon. Just a few years later than we thought.
Would love more discussion on futurama
Poor Fry's dog
The ships running on anti-matter is probably a reference to Star Trek and how the Enterprise uses dark matter as a fuel. In Star Trek, they use the explosive energy of mixing matrer and anti-matter to power their engines.
Two episodes make me cry obviously Jurassic bark but also luck of the fryish
For me it's Jurassic Park, Luck of the Fryrish, and Game of Tomes. Cold Warriors might be a runner-up.
Futurama is by FAR the best adult animated TV show and its really not close... like what would you compare it to? American Dad...laughable or even worse, Big Mouth? Horrid
we've come a long way, baby...
Talk more about me, BENDER!
The very first point you make about fry being in the past is to do with multiple time lines in which something has to happen in the future for it to happen in the past the first time. That sounds really difficult to wrap your head around trust me I feel the same way. It’s like when you go back to be your own grandfather but you exist to do it. TH-cam comments isn’t the place to discuss in depth but it still checks out. The first man on the moon fry would exist up until this point where he goes back this changing it at that point not before.
Also with the infinite inbreeding technically passing your genes to yourself would result in a clone not make it worse.
Please, do Community Icebearg Part 2 next
Love the vid! Thanks for the hard work assembling this. One of my fave shows ever since initial run way back in the day. My older brother used to give me crap when I watched it as a teenager. Screw him! Still love it! Keep 'em coming 10K. You rock!
I don’t know why I never thought of this before, but in the episode where they get stuck underwater, why do they have to change the engine to be a thin flaps then if it’s literally moving the universe around the ship and not relying on like moving the ships through the universe you would think it wouldn’t need to do that
The solar sail?
I've watched this whole series through at least 4 times. I will still watch just about any futurama related video on the internet lmao. And all time travel paradoxes/weirdness are forgiven because they gave seymore his human and nixed ... that ... ending.
is that seriously a smooth jazz instrumental version of "i got hoes" playing in the background?
Bender's game is the only futurama movie that I've only watched once
Bender got jealous because he thought Fry was replacing him
Fry pulled a Rant Casey. Killed his grandfather and became him.
You should rank all the episodes of King of the Hill like you did with Bobs Burgers
'We're science writers':
Bender flushes his torso down a toilet.
Bender puts a plug nickle in his compartment and then is sucked down the hole it was plugging.
A bit late, but in futurama, the french language is go poof gone
6:57 Alien language 1 or also known as A1. But on screen it says AL1.... now I'm confused😂😊
Didnt know Fry's parents were bros
I don't think his inbreeding would get worse, he would be restarting it over again, not adding to his unborn dad every time. The going back in time would keep undoing it.
Canceled? Dude it had an ending and it’s coming back for a new season…. So it hasn’t ended
Retarded? Dude! Canceled shows,can always be un-canceled.It was LITERALLY fucking canceled at least 3 times,and then was brought back.Its really not too difficult to understand.
You're technically correct, the best kind of correct.
But he wasn't wrong. It was literally cancelled. Having a conclusive, written ending doesn't negate that. In fact, it was cancelled twice.
As well as that, although this is just a somewhat related fun fact, Futurama has had four finale endings, with one episode written as a potential, 'just-in-case' finale.
I know you didn't ask, and I know I'm digressing, but these episodes are, S4 The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings, [S5] Into the Wild Green Yonder, S7 Meanwhile, and S6 Overclockwise as the 'potential' finale. (During the production of season 6, the staff weren't sure if the show would be picked up for a 7th, so Overclockwise was written so that, should they be cancelled or not picked up, it could serve as a series finale if need be. Luckily that wasn't the case, but it does give the episode's ending a new meaning when you see it again!
Less go
We’re doin it
Theres also an episode of Adventure time that deliberately uses all (Or most) of the voice actors from Futurama
Why did they use a part from KITT for the wherecar when the KARR was clearly the evil version.
How was the building Fry was in able to escape the destruction of the city.
10:36 "Hey it's a cartoon get over it" I'm quite sure that after making all these iceberg videos you have definitely lost your right to use that sentence!!😅
So is planet express built over the Simpsons house because we all know that bender crashed at the simpsons house cuz he couldn’t go in the Time Machine 😳
So something else I had in mind with the movie retcons is that even afterward the show seems to just totally forget about stuff that happened in the movies. Most likely due to embarrassment from bad writing and fans pointing out how it makes no sense in the show's continuity. The big one is the professor being the father for one of mom's kids. The revival seasons act as though that reveal never happened which yeah makes sense considering what a nonsensical mess it is that was probably just put in the the sake of having a twist. I could list all the reasons why but I don't have all day.
If it weren't clear I do not like the movie episodes lol. I'd even take most revival episodes over them.
The game Easter egg is so fucking insane too. Like just why lol. I wonder why and how the devs got that in and came up with it. Especially for some licensed basically shovelware...
Its not that, is just the timeline of characters like Lars or the Hermes that die collapse once that the paradox is fixed.
The actual plan with the movies, was they could be made. Though only if the movies could be made and later broken apart into individual episodes, if the movies did well. They were not designed as movies, but as a long running season broken into 4 parts. Even into straight dvd release, the makers of Futurama sold enough to show there is a fan base. Even with all the restrictions placed on them. Futurama fans, like myself, understand it wasn't ever truly given a chance to succeed. Let's see if this "review" can get it right from 1:48 on in. Cause the movie break down missed history.
Hey can you do Family guy please
Wabble ding
I thought I watched this thing while drunk and this comment confirmed it
futurama is a S tier series easily
“Infinitely inbred”
Has anyone seen what has been coming out of Harvard lately? Havard does not mean smart.
Soon we'll have more stuff to add
Pretty sure fry's mom is the one with his genes since she has his hair and everything. And they cant both be his descendents cause then it'd be even more inbreeding on top of infinite inbreeding 🤣
His father is his descendant. When they go back to Roswell, he shouts "sorry dad" at his grandpa's nuts.
Pretty sure it takes TWO to horizontal tango lol So,he clearly has genes from BOTH parents.Have you honestly ever heard of anyone that ONLY took genes from one parent? That doesn't make sense lol You're something special.
First
Proud of you
0:40 That line aged badly my friend!
Can someone explain "Fry's father is also his own grandfather?". That part doesn't make sense to me. since the lineage starts with fry, doesn't that mean his dad DOESN'T have a grandpa on that side of the family?
Fry is simultaneously the son AND father of his father. Which means his father is simultaneously the son and father of Fry. So they are each other's grandfather. Contrary to what the video says, the Fry who sleeps with his grandmother didn't 'pop up' from nowhere, he is still his father's son.
he's also farnsworth great grandfather but still calls him uncle fry@@jbjaguar2717
