Well i say it today and as a simpsons fan i wasn't really impressed. Waited a long time for this and have to say it honestly was a let down. Didn't think it, but most of the laughs were in the trailer........

I think its time to let it die and stop flogging the dead horse
 
Thats a shame - i'm dying to see it - was it really all that bad? Did you see it in a cinema - were others laughing? Darn it!! So looking forward to it.
 
Most of the funniest bits are in the ads/previews alright.

Have to agree with the guy on Today FM this evening (involved in Pet Sounds in some way)-the first 8/9 series are definitely the best-I don't think much of a lot of the newer episodes.

Plenty of people laughing and not 'bad', but you're not missing out by waiting for the DVD (or TV etc.)
 
It got great reviews yesterday on most of the radio stations but I'm still not 3expecting much. I'll go to see it anyway.
 
I went to the movie with the not expecting much frame of mind and really enjoyed it... It doesn't "go to another level" or anything but is as good if not a bit better than a tv episode except there were more plots and gags due to the extra length..
 
They had one of the producers on Today FM last night and they asked him to name his favourite episode...he said the one where Bart sells his soul.

My own favourite is the one with Scorpio and James Bond.

Anyone else got any favourites?
 
When Bart plays Rod/Todd in Crazy Golf ("Your putter's name is Charleen").
When Bart attempts to jump Springfield Gorge-Homer ends up in the ambulence and crashes into the tree-one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
When Shelbyvillans steal Springfield's Lemon Tree ("Shake harder...")
When Bart joins the Junior Campers ("Give Me 10,000 Krusty Burgers")
The Softball episode.


P.S. Albert Brooks (who was the voice of Hank Scorpio) plays a major part in the movie.
 
Mr Burns' son being 'kidnapped' ("yes, yes I am missing one son - return it immediately")

&

Homer accused of molesting the babysitter ("mmmm gummy bears")
 
Just watching the movie now and it just doesn't seem to work, unlike the series.

Mr. Burns election
Anything with Ralph Wiggum
All the takes on movies - Citizen Kane was one of the best done.

Fair enough...it wasn't a recommendation though, just a statement of fact.
I saw the movie this evening and was not impressed. Just an overly long episode really which will have you looking at your watch after about 45 minutes.
 
It was ok. Funny enough in parts but just like a long episode. Don't think I've ever been to a movie with so many screaming kids in the audience.
 
First half an hour was hilarious - Bart and Homer on the roof - brilliant, after that no so many laughs, except for Spider pig of course, reminded me of pinchy the lobster, very funny!:D
