Futurama’s back after being canceled over 4 years ago. The show will return on November 27th as a full-length high-def film sold on DVD. It will be followed by three additional films, and each film will be divided into four episodes each to be aired on Comedy Central.
The first DVD film to be relesed - Bender’s Big Score - centers on the Planet Express crew fighting to save Earth in an epic battle against nudist alien internet scammers. Who send Bender back in time to loot the Earth of its greatest treasures.
The remaining three films will be released throughout 2008 & titled, ‘The Beast with a Billion Bucks’, ‘Bender’s Game’ and ‘Into the Wild Green Yonder’.
I Just thought that I would announce: I have added a new section titled “downloads“, a place where I can put a few of my attempts at art and various other things that I am willing to share with the world. At the moment it is small, with a few wallpaper attempts and a couple of banners. It should hopefully grow as time goes by. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think.
I Just got back from watching the Simpson’s movie. I went with a number of friends and family. After a 30 minute wait in line and 20 minutes of ads it started.
And I have to say it was well worth going to see, with non-stop laughs from start to finish, and some great animation. The first 30 minutes were as Mr Burns would say, Excellent. If the film had carried on like that, it would have been the greatest Simpson’s episode ever. But towards the end, it seemed to tie things up a little to quickly in my opinion.
My biggest disappointment with the movie is that Sideshow Bob appears nowhere in the film. All throughout the movie I was expecting Sideshow Bob to appear and help homer save the day, or more likely be the very man behind the plot to destroy Springfield. But it never happened - I even waited until after the credits, with no luck.
Other than the absence of Bob, the Simpson’s movie was a great first film, lets hope the Sequel is even better.
Graphene, a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon, eluded scientists for years but was finally made in the laboratory in 2004 with the help of everyday, store-bough transparent tape. This research is an important first step, For developing a way to mass produce metallic graphene that could one day replace copper as the primary interconnect material on nearly all computer chips.
Not a fan of the Zune, I prefer my iPod more, But I do like the Zune Arts videos their really artistic. The latest edition to the Zune Arts gallery “Dogfight” has some great animation in it, enjoy.
You can check the rest of the videos out at zune-arts.net.
Today I found that some one had registered on Shellscript with the username: poset97qq & email: petersmith97@gmail.com, over the last couple of days I’ve had a massive influx in spam comments. And because the username looked a little too random, I was slightly weary of the new subscriber.
After googling the username I came across a number of blogs complaining about the very same subscriber. It seems like it could be the same bot with the username: xdfsd45oi & email: johnsmithuswe@gmail.com that tried to delete a number of blogs a while back, due to a word press bug that has since been fixed. The best thing to do if any of these users register on your blog is to delete them and make sure you have the latest version of word press installed.
Browsing youtube again, I came across this funny spoof on the original superman movie. The way it should have ended seems to make more sense than the original ending did - for one he stops both rockets before they hit their targets, after all he is Superman. Even Batman makes an appearance. Classic.

Shellscript.co.uk has been on and offline constantly for the last seven days due to a faulty Internet connection, after an upgrade on the connection took place just over a week ago. It has been difficult to get a connection to the Internet for more than a few minutes at a time. For 3 hours yesterday, it remained connected, so I was able to get shellscript transferred to an offsite web server - which I had planned on doing in a few weeks time despite this problem. The transfer was just in time because 10 minutes after, the Internet connection died again. Fortunately, ShellScript is now back online and all seems to be well again.
