Title Reference

Is there anything to support the notion that the title "Godfellas" was in any way based on "The Godfather" ? More likely Goodfellas, eh?

Can I add the quote (Bender): "First I was God, then I met God..."

[edit] Goofs

Does the fact that there IS God in this episode yet in "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid" it states there is a Big Bang and that "every religion is wrong!" seem to trouble anyone? Go Futurama! User:Sp3000 07:02, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

It was never established in this episode that the being bender meets IS God, only that it probably COULD be God--Tiberius47 07:59, 28 November 2006 (UTC).
That is true, "God" never states he IS god but, he does make statements like "there are so many, asking for so much. After a while you just...." This refers to the prayers of the people. Anyway, how else did "god" get the backpack on Bender or be able to speak English? Go Futurama! User:Sp3000 11:38, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
There could be a God and a big bang and every religion could still be wrong. The exact meaning isn't really made clear. We also have to be wary of violating WP:OR and WP:V. Stardust8212 15:54, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps we can quote the appropriate part from the episode transcript? The discussion between Bender and the galaxy thing happens quite compactly, within about ten lines. And it would give the original information from the episode to let readers decide for themselves.--Tiberius47 23:58, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
I dunno, I'd prefer not to include it but as always that's just my opinion. Stardust8212 01:22, 29 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Based on a story by

It doesn't really resemble the "The Microcosmic God" all that much, but does closely resemble a story by Alan Dean Foster. I've changed the reference.. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Harry Mudd (talkcontribs) 21:24, 15 March 2007 (UTC).
