IGN posted an article giving away details on the plot. As expected, the plot seems much like something you'd see as an episode for the show. Of course, this is just a big dvd-direct episode of the show.
IGN says:As Xmas 3007 approaches, the Futurama crew must fight to save Earth in an epic battle against nudist alien Internet scammers. When the evil naked aliens launch a cyber-attack on Planet Express, they make a shocking discovery: the secret of time travel, mysteriously tattooed on Fry's buttocks. Using their devious nudist software to control Bender, they repeatedly send the beer-fueled robot back in time to loot Earth of its greatest treasures. Bender's rampage through history has shocking repercussions when he encounters Al Gore (guest-starring as himself) during the 2000 Presidential recount. Meanwhile, Leela finds true love, a beloved crew member suffers an embarrassing decapitation, and Fry learns deep secrets about his destiny and his buttocks
Ahhhhh...sounds like we have another Casablanca on our hands!
But all kidding aside, I loved Futurama, and while I may be the only one, I shake my fist at Fox's televised Sunday sports shows..and Fox themselves, of course, by making the show walk the plank by giving it the 7pm timeslot. You know, the one that Football trampled over every single time it ran long. Of course, it didn't help having the Post Game show that always told sports fans every thing they already knew by watching the game. Ok, I'm rambling. Sorry guys, I just feel like the show was cut off way too soon, and I still think it's amazing that it lasted as long as it did.
