I been a fan of it since I was 6 or 7. I have all 3 seasons on DVD, waiting for season 4 :D .
This movie idea sounds good. I'd like to see the simpsons stuck in reality would be something to see.
Well I can't wait to see the teaser trailer :wink:

The Simpsons are great and I've said it before, one of the few shows worth wasting time on the tube to watch. I would love to see a movie.

Simpsons is a classic, but it hasn't been all that good in years, so I'm dubious toward a movie.

This is the fourth time they've announced a movie, will it come to fruittion this time around? who knows?
Wait until the series ends, it's better to go out with a movie...
Though given the fact the show has sucked for five seasons now...I might not like it.

I think Simpsons works best without movies. It's part of their charm really, because when it gets too long, it'll probably be more serious then usual. A live action movie would not really work, because you couldn't do all that slapstick, physical comedy in reality and have it look funny. It'd be more goofy then funny.

I love the Simpsons....life quits around the two college towns that I have lived in when the Simpsons are on.

I used to love the show but since season 11 it has become ridiculous. Honestly, I hate the later episodes and I have the feeling that this movie is going to suck, too.

What the hell would they do in a movie? They've done everything possible in the series.

Wait until the series ends, it's better to go out with a movie..it.
Bad idea.
The only reason for it to end would be for people to lose interest. And when they lose interest, why would they want to see the movie?
Anyways, it might be good, because, incase you haven't read, they'll have 5 veteran writers working on it.
And no, the 15th season has been pretty good so far. The best in years..

Oh come on! Plenty of TV series' waited until after the series finale to make a movie out of it. Star Trek, anyone?

No matter what happens, this is the path I do NOT want to see them go!
Personally, if they want to make a movie, get Conan O'Brien, and all the classic writers and dump Ian Maxtone Grahm and his college kid ilk. I mean, I still like the show, but it's just about how many stupid situations they can put Homer in.
Now a Futurama movie.....

Now a Futurama movie........would suck regardless of how it was made, since the series sucks in the first place :D
Don't hurt me please....

Sadly, I have to agree...
I've always been rather content in that they never made a movie as of yet. This idea sort of freaks me out... not comfortable with it at all.
Hmmm...
Also I stil think the Simpsons is hilarious. I don't know why so many people think the recent past few years have sucked. Do you still watch them though? All of em? I do religiously....

I'm surpised so many fans are living in constant denial.
The show has gone beyond the point of no return, it's plots are cliqued, and the humour is terrible

I dunno if it is denial as much as a matter of taste.
I like how the quality in character design and animation has increased over the years, as any good show should, and I still do laugh at it.
Sure, there are some episodes that aren't as funny as others but I still love the show.
I just... don't know how they'll do in a movie. :tanime:

I've told you already. They have VETERAN writers working on it. The ones who wrote all of your favourite Simpsons episodes.

Oh yes, MIKE SCULLY, classic writer there was'nt he? :roll:

Get out of this thread if all you're going to do is be a sarcastic asshole.

Nope, considering I'm a Seasons 1-11 fan, I like the fact there making a movie.
And quite frankly, you've been a total Prick yourself in some threads, so keep it shut

A simpsons movie? I have mixed feelings about that. On one hand they will be having classic simpsons writers doing it, which is good. On the other hand it could follow the cartoon movie trend where a movie comes out and from there on the show goes downhill, such as Hey Arnold!, Recess, Pokemon, among many others

Those are all children's shows.
South Park, anyone?

"Hey Arnold" was always going to end when the movie came out...and it did'nt go down hill, "The Journal" is one of the greatest finales ever to a cartoon.
Recess always sucked
Pokemon, whilst it has sucked for three years, has finally become worth watching again with "Pokemon Advanced"

there arent any other cartoons-turned-to-movies that I could think of that weren't kids shows

Yes I realize that... that's good, although I dunno what they could possibly write about that would last between an hour to an hour and a half, the typical cartoon movie timeframe.
I guess all I gotta do is wait til I see it to judge.

Maybe the lack of "great" episodes is due to the fact that they're using all of the good ideas for the movie. :lol:

That could be true, since I've heard that the movie has been in the works for quite some time now.
On a side note, Stone Ill is from Mississauga??? So am I. What a crappy city. Where abouts in Mississauga?

To be fair... Recess was cancelled before they made the movie. It's just in endless reruns now.
But even if it sucks as an animated movie, it will REALLY suck 10 years down the road as a live action movie made by some guy who saw one episode and decided to wing it! Or was I the only one that saw that pathetic Inspector Gadget movie!
