Simpsons on the Silver Screen
An anonymous reader writes "It looks like Matt Groening is going to actually go through with it. This article
says that the cast of the Simpsons has signed on for at least 3 feature films. Hooray!" I hope they call them Episodes 4, 5 and 6.
According to this, The Simpsons are going to be on Inside The Actor's Studio, on Nov. 18. How freaking cool is that?
James Lipton: Homer, what is your favorite curse word?
Homer Simpson: D'oh!
Unfortunately, Nov. 18 is when they tape it, not when they broadcast it...
Education is the silver bullet.
Isn't this a repeat?
No, wait.. this same rumor recirculates every few months, that's right.
As much as I'd love to see it happen, I'll believe it when there's something resembling a formal announcement.
1) A Simpsons movie is unlikely to run 2 hours. Most animated films (excepting Miyazaki) run about 90 minutes.
2) There are around 22 episodes in a standard Simpsons season.
The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what we share with someone else when we're uncool. -Crowe
I saw Matt Groening in Montreal (here) a few months ago at the Simpsons Reading (Just For Laughs Festival). He confirmed that there would, in fact, be a Simpsons Feature.
The show (reading) was pretty cool, too. (-:

They first were on the Tracy Ulman (sp?) show as a little 5min crudely done cartoon. I can remember the first year it went from that to a 30min show, which has now turned into the greatest cartoon series ever created =).
