Goofs:

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The mailbox of Leela's parents house in the sewer reads "Turanga". Turanga may be Leela's 'first' name, but Turanga is actually the family name - Turanga Leela and her parents Turanga Morris and Turanga Munda.

"Good news everyone"

I'm a huge fan of the television series and the 2 movies that followed.'Benders Game' is the best movie and episode to date.It's full of laughs,crude and sexual humor,and wacky cartoon violence.In fact,this sequel is much more violent than the first 2 movies and all of the episodes.So make sure not to let little kids see it.Save it for teens.

In this episode,Bender the robot discovers that he has no imagination until he becomes obsessed with a board game that goes by the name of Dungeons & Dragons.It's an actual game to.But soon,Bender loses control of reality and his imagination causes the Planet Express crew to fall into a fantasy world where Bender is king and where everybody eats fried dwarfs.Sounds too weird for you? Well,it gets a little weirder as it continues.

'Futurama: Bender's game' is the best movie of the series and is a must-see for Futurama fans.
