What movie will be best!?

What movie do you think will be best of TMNT 2007 or The Simpsons Movie!?
I personally think The Simpsons Movie will be better!
But I'm a slightly bigger fan of The Simpsons than TMNT!
I am really exited about The Simpsons Movie!

TMNT. Easily.

The Simpsons Movie will be just like every other episode from the past seven or eight years, mild, uninteresting, crap, I mean, the fact some utter twits think anything with that damn pig is remotley funny is proof enough they no longer know what the show used to be.

That didn't stop people from comparing TMNT to another episode from either series, it doesn't matter, as well. Sometimes, I felt that way too.

I'm hoping that the Simpsons will be better than TMNT, since I found the new movie to be a big letdown. Financially, it's not a question, the Simpsons will beat TMNT in the opening weekend. Also, if The Simpsons manage to be worse than TMNT in the story department then they must really have tried to be worse. As in, they sat there and went: "Let's make this movie suck beyond recognition."

The only thing I'm worried about is that they try to be too silly. They had a couple of seasons, like at season 13 or so, that weren't all that funny while being overly silly, but now they're getting better again. If I was to make the Simpsons movie, I'd try to get the humour back that was present in the earlier seasons.

By the way, speaking of the Simpsons, I know that I'll miss Marge's German voice. The voice actor died unexpectedly about half a year ago. And her replacement doesn't do a bad job, quite the contrary, but she just doesn't sound like Marge anymore.

I'd have wanted the movie to have been held back for a reason, if they had reservations about aging the characters, fine, that justifies it, but when push finally comes to shove, they just played it safe.

Indeed, the plot of the movie harkens back to the "Two Cars In Every Garage" story, focusing on ecological damage and Burns role in that, and Bart being taken in by Flanders also reflects an older episode.

I'll give the show it's due though when it deserves it, it's recent season finale was an astounding and bold assault on FOX News (Affliated with it's mother station) and the media, it was something out of straight-laced Bill Hicks and returned to focusing on Springfeild's menegerie of underlooked characters like Kent Brockman. Keep that up, and we'll have a series that can hopefully end the way it began
