Simpsons Film in Preproduction
93,000 writes "According to Yahoo news, a Simpsons feature film is now in preproduction. In TFA, Nancy Cartwright is quoted as saying "We've just done the table read for The Simpsons movie, so although we've been promoting that we're going to do it, now we're actually doing it and are in production . . ." Also from TFA: "'They are working on hammering out a script, but there's no title or production date or release date,' studio spokeswoman Antonia Coffman told E! Online Wednesday. 'We always wanted the show to end first but it just keeps going. Now they've worked out a team to simultaneously do [both the film and show].'""
D'oh!
I Got First Pos....
D'OH!!!!
That's unpossible!!!
Are you familiar with the old robot saying "DOES NOT COMPUTE"?
Oops, wrong show...
The movie begins with the same theme song sequence as the show, the family ends up in the living room staring at the TV, but the TV is missing. A road trip begins as the Simpsons search for their missing TV. Their search takes them across deserts, to the Hoover Dam, in the trunks of cars, and ends up in Washington DC, all while being chased by cops and robbers. By the end of the trip, they finally find their TV and they go home. /err wait
South Park did it!

We always wanted the show to end first but it just keeps going.
My thoughts exactly.
I'll probably wait to watch it on DVD, while enjoying freshly picked Tomacco.
Thank you.
Rest assured I was on the internet within minutes registering my disgust throughout the world.
In Soviet Russia, family visits you.

/. jumped the shark when we had our first dupe.
I feel sorry for the ten people who were here to witness the end of an era.

"Qua!?"
Isn't all meat cooking necro-cooking? ;)
Holly shit!
Let's hope she made it the bathroom. And wouldn't "Ay caramba!" be more appropriate?
What?
Thanks for telling me what my UID was, I was completely unaware of the proximity to the 700 thousand in my example and thus the humour therein. And how convenient that the poster who was complaining about the phrase and to which I replied had a UID of 721795. I guess what with being British, I expect people to acknowledge subtle, self-deprecating humour without needing to add JOKE tags.
Oh and thanks for the keen observation about my current social and working situation as well as the genius of linking UID to age and maturity. If you represent the archetypal Slashdot 'golden-oldie' then perhaps I feel glad that I didn't register until I did. I'm sure such a venomous comment is really indicative about how much of a 'winner' you are.
Mother, do you think they'll like this sig?
I can't believe no one has posted that episode reference yet.
