Futurama’s ‘The Beast with a Billion Backs’ Trailer

Futurama’s direct-to-DVD follow up to the direct-to-DVD release, ‘Bender’s Big Score’ will be hitting store shelves on June 24th. Titled, ‘The Beast with a Billion Backs,’ has something to do with a beast coming through to our universe and taking over Fry, making him the Pope of a new religion.

‘Bender’s Big Score’ was pretty damn funny (even though I checked out of keeping track of the specific plot points thanks to the convoluted time-travel wackiness that took place about halfway through) and I’m glad to see that Futurama is still coming out with new things. I hope Fox offered to give them a time slot back and they said no. Of course the ratings were low while it was on the air. How can a show do well if it’s constantly preempted by football?! Fox, you’ve done it again.

Anyhoo, this is much better. Check out the trailer (which isn’t really funny, but still) below and long live Fry!

Weezer Names New Album

Weezer Names New Album

WeezerWith the anticipation of Weezer’s follow-up album to ‘Make Believe’ slowly gaining momentum, the band has officially announced the upcoming title and release date of the new disc.  Being released on June 17th, the new Weezer album will officially be called……….’Weezer’!  June’s release will make this the third Weezer album to be self-titled, following the band’s 1994 debut album, ‘Weezer’ (known as the Blue Album) and 2001′s follow-up to ‘Pinkerton,’ ‘Weezer’ (known as the Green Album).  The color scheme this time around?  Rumor has it that the album will be known as the Red Album.

No word on whether the band will be following the latest trends of an online release or whether they will be sticking to the standard let-it-leak-then-buy-it-at-a-store approach.
