I'm excited! To hell with all the "it's sucked for years" haters. I'm going to see it, and I will very likely enjoy it. :up:
 
I'm so excited too! :hyper:

Last weekend when I was in Seattle, I went to the 7-11 that they have decorated like the Kwik-E-Mart! :love:

I've loved The Simpsons since I was a kid, and I'll definitely be seeing this movie!
 
MAJORLY EXCITED!! WOOT!!!:hyper: :hyper:

My second cousin is Sam Simon who was one of the original producers of the show. He left the show in the mid 90s but still is filthy rich just off the royalties, products alone.. He has also done quite a few shows, like Cheers, Taxi etc... Not sure if he gets any credit on the movie. I will have to check..

I just checked imdb and he is getting credit as a developer I believe. I haven't talked to him since I was a kid..

Indeed. :cute: This show is my childhood. I'm going. Maybe not opening night, but I definitely intend to see it at the theatre.
 
As long as I accept this is post Season 7 Simpsons writing, I won't hate it, I guess.

I mean, but, remember when it was a great, relevant show? I miss that a bit :(






Now, if you will excuse me

I would argue that it was good up to (and including) season 9. After that, it's dropped off to having about 3 good/decent episodes a year. :(

However, this movie has supposedly been in the works for 10+ years, so maybe it won't suck. :shrug:

i miss that a lot. :( :(

i'll probably still see it, unless it's supposed to completely suck.

which it could.

I catch myself humming and singing "spiderpig, spiderpig......." just out of the blue.......
Can't wait to see this!

There's probably no one left on planet earth that doesn't know that
The Simpsons Movie is opening this Friday, July 27. What folks may not
know is that our favorite frontman is referenced in a sub-plot
involving Lisa Simpson and an Irish activist she becomes interested in.

No word yet on whether or not Bono is pleased by this shout-out, but
since imitation is the highest form of flattery, and U2 did appear on
an episode of The Simpsons during its ninth season, I'm bargaining
he's okay with it.

:cool: :bono: :hyper:
 
I'm going with 7 friends, to the premiere, TONIGHT!!!

I'M SO PYSCHED!!!! :hyper:



in the cinema lobby, there's a couch with all 5 simpsons, and an empty seat, so you can take our picture, and with some coupon contest, I MAY WIN ONE OF THEM (homer, marge, bart, lisa, maggie or the couch) :hyper:



SPIDER PIG, SPIDER PIG, DOES WHATEVER A SPIDER PIG DOES!!!! :faint:
 
I went to see it today, it was just amazingly brilliant*, I would encourage everyone to go see it. Only problem with is that it's quite short but still it gets a massive :up: from me.

*My opinion is in no way biased by the fact that I am a Simpsons fanatic

Can he spin from a web? No he can't cos he's a pig, look out here comes a spider pig :wink:
 
The guy in our paper today gave it only three stars, saying that once it hit the 30 minute mark it went downhill. He said the first half hour was hilarious, the rest not so much. "Good but not great."
 
I'm trusting the less positive reviews, personally... Spiderpig does not strike me as funny in the least (does this mean I have no soul?) and there was no part of the trailers I found even interesting at all.

I guess I'll see it, it's not like my respect for the show has been tainted alrady, it's been downhill for the past ten years now, and that's a fact.
