Futurama returns with look at Godfellas
🕑 Added 2025-01-20 20:46:32 +0000 UTCBrand new look at a classic Futurama episode is up! Doing a comedy is always a challenge, so I hope you enjoy it! https://youtu.be/lrJqkgWY7IE
The episode is philosophical on the nature of godhood, so the video gets into that. I tried to show respect to those who do not believe in a higher power while simultaneously engaging with the episode's theological and philosophical issues. Hope that comes through.
I'd hoped to also get you tomorrow's video much sooner, but it's proving to be a problem. I actually might wind up bumping it even further. It's B5: Signs and Portents. The problem is the same as with Lifeline, all the audio is lost on top of the normal problems dealing with a version of the program from fourteen years ago.
Further complicating was that Signs and Portents was the second B5 episode I did, and unlike the first (Passing through Gethsemane) it required a lot of context. As a result, the script is long on context that is no longer really needed, and short on actual content. I found for the first time in more than a decade that the situation really called for more than just a revision, it really needed a major overhaul. And I don't think I can get it done today. It's part of what killed the weekend - for the first time, doing a new review (Godfellas) took less time than just working to try to fix an old one, and the old one still isn't done yet.
