Shouldn't Leela be Leeloo?

[–] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 56 points 8 months ago (1 children)

First thing I said! Amy is the singer, the professor is the priest, and obviously either zoidberg or Hermes is ruby. Then bender should be gary oldmans character

Easy picks...

Corbin Dallas - Fry

Leeloo - Leela

Cornelius - Farnsworth

David - Hermes

Diva - Amy

The Mangalores - The Omicronians

And I would consider these two for either character

Ruby Rhod - Bender

Zorg - Zoidberg

"They sure do make him...."

"Perfect. I know."

Look at all these little things!

You want something done right, do it yourself why not.

Shouldn't Leela be Corbin and Fry be Leeloo?

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

That's funny!

But Katey Sagal can actually sing

The Professor would be better cast as the guy Ruby Rod says is stone cold deaf, and who eventually rolls a billiards ball back to Bruce Willis's character (I'm drawing a blank on names this morning).

If anything, Bender would make a better Ruby Rod and could cast Roberto as the flaming bad guy entity.

Hermes would make a good Zorg.

Alrighty, I'm thinking way too much into this. 😅 I'm stopping now.

Zorg has to be Mom

Joanne-Baptista Carolina MOM

"To my left is Baby Ray! He's not gonna get much out of this concert, cause he's STONE DEAF!!"

Bender is ruby 100% and the devil cloud professor. He sends them to their death constantly.

This could have been a fun mashup but this execution just feels kinda wrong/gross overall to me.

  • Why are so many main characters not included (Hermes, Zoidberg, Nibbler etc.)? At least Bender is present as the flaming mass we all fondly remember from the film...
  • Was it really necessary to include perky nipples and a camel-toe on Amy?
  • The staff Professor Rhod is holding has what resembles a golden swastika in the only significant change from how it appears in the movie. And though the Professor is occasionally shown without teeth in the show is there a reason he doesn't have any here?
  • Why does that train have eyes?
  • Just a bizarre composition in general. Why include so much of the stone and vents around Amy, then make the openings between the slats just reveal the background image? If Leela was shifted over slightly left her fading tendrils and feet could have been cleanly hidden behind the Professor.

Really wish these people would jerk off first and then make their fan art.

[–] dmention7@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago

Or...

Make the horny version first, jack off, and then make the non-horny version. That way we all win regardless of whether we are pre- or post-wank!

Yes. Do you know what the word necessary means?

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 7 months ago

Baffling, mate.

[–] akintudne@reddthat.com 2 points 7 months ago

Why is Amy standing in for Leeloo instead of Leela?

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 24 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fry makes no sense as Corbin Dallas, he has completely the wrong energy for that character. The character with the closest energy to Corbin Dallas would be Scruffy, but obviously we can't make Scruffy the main character, so maybe it's Bender instead.

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

It would be wild to have scruffy as the protagonist though lol

[–] Mostly_Gristle@lemmy.world 20 points 8 months ago

Now I'm imagining Scruffy as Zorg.

1990: leelo revealed too much skin

instagram today: "you rang?!"

Super green

Why is that Amy and not Mom
