Thread: The Simpsons Movie

  1. #1

    Default The Simpsons Movie

    Much better than I thought. The timing of the movie is still a problem, 12-14 years ago would of been preferable, as the movie still reflects the last few seasons rather than the superior ones in the mid 90's. But nonetheless, this isnt just 4 episodes stuck together. They put alot of effort into this movie to make it as funny as possible, and for the most part, this movie is much funnier than anything the last 5 or 6 seasons have produced. If your like me and dont even watch the new Simpsons episodes anymore, still watch this movie because at least you can be assured that its much much better than what there cranking out on the TV nowadays.

    i saw it today, and thought it was really good too. A lot of it is much funnier because you are in the cinema with laughing people though, meaning its no where near as funny at home on DVD But i was still hugely impressed being a big Simpsons fan

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    I hope they didn't try to make it more accessible, throwing in jokes that appeal to all groups of people simply to reach out to a broader audience. (In the trailer, they just show a bunch of characters get hurt.) That is probably my main concern. However, I am a minority among Simpsons fans in the sense that I prefer the newer episodes to the ones from the early 90s. The ones from mid and late 90s were the best though.

    I'm seeing it tonight, it looks so funny.
    But the 90's episodes were the best, hands down.

    I liked it - it was a lot better than I expected. I laughed a lot, but there was never any feeling of impetus or peril. I think it was pretty much as good a film as they could have made out of it. It's always going to be more suited to 20 minutes but, to its credit, it didn't feel like it dragged.

    Ralph is awesome.

    I went to see it with very low expectations, but I really liked it. You can tell they put a lot of effort into trying to please the fans, not just cranking out a movie for the sake of it.

    It wasn't something I'd rant and rave about, but it gets my thumbs up.

    Saw it tonight and it was good. Still, I just couldn't help but compare it to the good old days before the show started to suck and feel that it just didn't measure up in the end. Twas a good movie, but I agree with Dreddz that a movie should have been made when the show was in it's prime.
