Simpsons on the Silver Screen

Posted by timothy on from the it-will-be-funny-you-will-laugh dept.

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.

    Okay look, I LOVE the simpsons, but I find it very hard to imagine it translating to the big screen well. The problem is that most of the simpsons is small bits that fit well in a 30 minute time slot. When you try to drag something like that to 90+ minutes it tends to do just that, drag.

    I'd love it if they made a simpsons movie and it was good but I'd bet heavily against it.

    Beavis and Butthead Do America was absolutely hilarious and their weekly show wasn't even a full 22 minutes. I'm sure the Simpsons' crew can come up with something just as funny.

    Homer: Hey, I have a, uh, friend who's going to be on "Inside the Actor's Studio."

    Moe: What's his name?

    Homer: Ahh, Joey...Joe-Joe...Junior...Shabba-doo.

    Moe: That's the worse name I ever heard.

    Joey Joe-Joe: (Cries and runs out of bar.)

    Barney: Joey Joe-Joe!!!

    Homer: Ah, never mind, it's just me.
