So who is going to see this movie?? I'm hoping to go tomorrow.

I'm going tomorrow whether my friends want to or not.

Simpsons fan ever since I can remember.

I'll be there tomorrow. Just before I go over to training camp. D'oh! I guess it's today........

heh....i love SPIDER PIG!

I saw this movie at 12:01 this morning at Valley View, and I have to say it was freaking fantastic!

I've been a huge Simpsons fan since it first came out. I went into the movie completely blind. I didn't watch a single preview or read a single review before I went in.

I laughed throughout the entire movie, as did my wife and best friend, and the entire theater, so this isn't just me justifying it because I'm a huge fan. It was a really funny movie.

This movies is coming out way too late. The show peaked in it's 4th, 5th, & 6th seasons.

That said, as a die hard fan, it is still my duty to go see this movie.

And doesn't it bother any fans who've seen the trailers and TV spots, that they have President Swartzenegger instead of President Wolfcastle? Every true Simpsons fan knows that Renier Wolfcastle (McBain) is just a Swartzenegger parody. They didn't even alter the voice for it.

That's nit-picky me, for you.

lol, point taken. I know that when I saw Star Wars Episode I, the people there were extremely die-hard Star Wars fans, and you could tell they were disappointed in the movie.

This movie last night, though, people were really laughing. My wife is a fan, but not a die-hard, and she was doubled over laughing at points.

Yeah, there were slow points in the movie, but I haven't seen many movies that didn't have a slow point or two.

Overall, I thought it was a really funny movie, plain and simple.

Woohoo! But I was looking for Harry Plopper.

I saw the movie at 12:01 am and I thought it was fantastic! They didn't explain why happen to Harry Plopper/Spiderpig, so I guess that is my only criticism of the movie..

Spider-Pig, Spider-Pig, does whatever a Spider-Pig does
Can he swing from a web? No he can't, he's a pig
Look out, he is the Spider-Pig!

Did anyone else ever get the Simpsons magizine?

Did anyone else hear that the movie took over four years to make?

I can see that... can you imagine how tired Homer's got just filming this spider pig scene? Must have taken DAYS to get it right. Then they have to clean the ceiling between shots, etc... very time consuming..... and I hear Maggie held out in contract talks for a while too (Condon is her agent).

Yet through it all, Bart doesn't appear to have aged a day... make-up these days is amazing..

His secret is the Fountain Pen of Youth.

well, I read somewhere that he has that Webster disease, the one that keeps you small.... like Gary Coleman.

You are anxiously waiting for the soundtrack aren't you?

This is so horrible that its funny.

That's some high production value right there!

Saw the movie tonight - funny as hell! A little too short, but I thought it was fantastic!

I saw the movie and I thought the first 20 minutes or so were hilarious but the rest was pretty bad.

I watched it last night.....

Some parts were funny i guess....not sure if i would call it a GREAT movie....still it was worth my 6.50 so thats all that matters....


I LIKE MEN NOW

I was at park last night, and some guys that were rock climbing were singing hte spider pig as they climbed.

I'm not a huge Simpsons fan, I'll catch it in a couple weeks.

It was everything I thought it would be, it was great!

Still wish the movie was made about 10 years ago though. Then it would have been even better.

As I said earlier in this thread, I think the show peaked around seasons 4, 5, & 6 and started turning REALLY bad around season 9. These days I think the show is at its all time worst and there MIGHT be a strong show or two per season.

All that said, I went into the movie w/ super low expectations and ended up LOVING it. It was so surprisingly good. There were some slow parts, but for the most part it was GOOD.

There are two many good and funny parts to mention. The biggest negative for me was the horrible lack of screen time for Mr. Burns. He should have been featured MUCH more.

They assembled writers from every era of the Simpsons for this movie. If they used this team for the actual show, it would be totally resurrected and I'd be very excited to watch new episodes again. If not, then I always have Seasons 1 through 8 on DVD.
