Paradox/Continuity Error

Shouldn't it have been Fry that was doomed and not Lars? Considering that Fry jumped back in time the second time before returning to the 31st century, that would have made him the third copy in that time frame. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.214.80.190 (talk) 12:18, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But the rule is a time PARADOX DUPLICATE is doomed. You may have noticed that Nudar's duplicate (the one that had only one line) got smashed by the Smelloscope, Bender's duplicate (the one that says, "Okay boss") self-destructed, and Hermes' backwards body got hit by a chandelier. All of those were PARADOX DUPLICATES. Therefore, Fry was safe and Lars was doomed. Got it, meatbag? - Jasonbres (talk) 21:58, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there many benders at the end only one went back and waited it out each time so why was there lots .... ?

The paradox is that Bender told them to come up at the end instead of when they actually did. That's also why they exploded. 139.78.253.213 (talk) 21:34, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

Why are we dividing the plot section into four parts? While it was divided for broadcast it was originaly a movie and it seems to me we should present the plot in that format. While admittedly this is the format used by Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story I don't really think we should follow their lead seeing as that article is unreferenced and chock-full of Original Research. I'm just wondering if anybody could give me a good reason why we should present a made for dvd movie as four episodes when it was written as a single plot line. Thanks Star dust 8212 12:45, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I think it should be presented as one continuous plot line and the division for broadcast should be properly noted, either in a "broadcast" section or merely in the lead (which it may or may not be already, I don't have the article in front of me). -- Chickenmonkey 19:02, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed them. Third the opinion. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 00:17, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How does the entire plot section not include any mention of the Fry Duplicate/Lars who stays in 2000 and his adventure with the narwhal Leelu? I'm not sure where to put it in, but it seems a major omission. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.2.127.191 (talk) 07:22, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added a couple sentences about Leelu. Cy3 (talk) 00:28, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re-worked the plot to try to make it more concise. It's a bit difficult as the plot is fairly involved, but I think I covered most of the major plot points. Wxkat (talk) 09:06, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

time code?

It should be mentioned in fun facts what the time code is and what it translates from binary to English. 204.191.74.245 (talk) 17:01, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This would require a reliable, third-party source. The best thing I'm able to find is this, which is not a reliable source. --82.136.210.153 (talk) 23:51, 25 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
