Video: The Futurama opening titles remade in 3D is breathtakingly brilliant

Welcome to the world of tomorrow...

Welcome to the world of tomorrow…

JOE often thinks that it’d be possible to create the best person alive if we combined elements of the Futurama cast into one amazing being.

Imagine if you could mix Bender’s hatred of jerks, Fry’s slacker attitude, the professor’s brains, Zapp Brannigan’s bravado and Zoidberg’s whooping sound all into one person. It sounds perfect, doesn’t it?

We may have to wait quite a while for this to happen, but  Russian animator Alexey Zakharov has given us a timely reminder of just how awesome Matt Groening’s show is in another very special way.

If you have ever wondered what Futurama’s intro would look like if it were rendered in 3D then this is just the thing for you… becuase it’s Futurama’s intro rendered in 3D obviously.

Right, we’re off to grab a can of Slurm and re-watch a few episodes of the classic cartoon.
