« on: March 26, 2009, 05:43:25 pm »
Hey did anyone else notice how Bender from Futurama is an exellent dwarf-type? I mean, comon!
-"Kill all humans!" (and elves.. and goblins.. etc)
-Needs alcohol to get through the working day (gets really cruddy from reduced alcohol-intake)
-Is ready to cancel any task to go have a drink (or so it would seem)

Remember the giant bender statue he made on the egypt planet? 

If that wasn't a megaproject I donno what is.  It even shot flames from it's eyes(magma?) and had a highly flammable explosive booze stockpile underground below it.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

What are you talking about?  Bender can be very emotional.

I belive there was an episode where Fry gets killed by a giant space wasp and Bender is all sad at the funeral. 

I don't remember the quote exactly but it was something like... "Whenever I said 'kill all humans' I always quietly said 'Except for one'..."  So I think he would go melancholy.   Of course...

Holy cow...a spoiler tag used as intended.  Don't see that often. (P.S. No offence to people using spoiler tags to reduce post size.  I agree wholeheartedly with the practice.)

So what is the problem with that? Dwarves made of metal will be a possible to mod in after the next version is released.  ;D
