I would say this popularity contest is a "no brainer" but since that's literally all that's left of them, maybe that's the wrong choice of words here.

Either way, it's great to have an excuse both to watch some new animations of Futurama in a post-Futurama world, as well as to hear Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, Stephen Hawking, and George Takei fighting for our attention.

The actual news about this new animation is that Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow -- a mobile game made in partnership with Matt Groening that's a blend of simulation, combat, and choose-your-own-adventure -- will be released June 29.
