The Simpsons Movie: 8 out of 10. This is the hardest movie review I've ever sat down to write. I just ended a 17 year wait to see a film featuring the Simpsons. Since they announced this project had been green lighted, I went from heavy anticipation through a thick
Speaking of positive reviews for The Simpsons Movie, the Globe and Mail had a nice little collection of Cancon Simpsons moments in an article they called D'oh Canada. I like it so much, I'm reproducing it here in its entirety. D'oh Canada! by David George-CoshThe members of America's favourite nuclear
I made it all the way to 7pm without reading a single review of The Simpsons Movie. I successfully avoided all Simpsons-related news and the entertainment section of the paper. Then, I decided to get my head out of the sand and see what I'm in store for. I think
I don't watch Jay Leno's Tonight Show, but I just found out Homer Jay Simpson performed the opening monologue last night. Here it is. And as an added bonus, here's a pretty cool Burger King ad featuring characters from The Simpsons.
With The Simpsons Movie only days away from your local theatre, The Simpsons marketing blitz is in full effect. 7-Elevens have become Kwik-e-Marts, Simpsonizeme.com is completely overloaded, a giant figure of Homer with a doughnut was painted on a Dorset hillside alongside the ancient 180-foot figure known as the
It's almost here. I first wrote about The Simpsons Movie back in February of 2004 and I've written about it a few more times since. As much as I've been anticipating this movie for the 18 years, I probably won't see next weekend. In fact, I probably won't see it
July 27th is fast approaching. Please be good, please be good, please be good, please be good, please be good, please be good, please be good...
I thought this was pretty sweet.
Take a gander at all these Simpsons-related entries. And lest we forget the Homer Simpson Quotes of the Week I've been managing for almost four years. Yep, I've loved The Simpsons since day one. We're a couple of months away from the long awaited Simpsons movie. The closer we get
During the Idol Gives Back special last night, The Simpsons made an appearance. Homer, Marge and Lisa were judging Simon Cowell's rendition of the Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha". Bart shows up at the end to steal the sequence with his Brian Dunkleman jab.
Twenty years ago tonight, The Simpsons made their first appearance on television. On April 19, 1987, The Tracey Ullman Show aired a two-minute animated short by Matt Groening that introduced the world to Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. The rest, is history. I can't think of a better way
Watching the Simpsons last night, I was most impressed with the couch gag. I've seen hundreds of these things, and a few have really stuck out as winners, but last night's ranks amongst the very best. It's the evolution of Homer and it might be the longest couch gag in
Here's the latest trailer (I believe it's number four) for the upcoming Simpsons movie.
It originally aired ten years ago yesterday, and to me it hilariously epitomizes everything this holiday has come to represent. Homer vs. The Eighteenth Amendment begins as Springfield celebrates St. Patrick's Day with a day revolved around booze. Even Bart gets drunk, leading to a return to prohibition and much
I had seen the cast of The Simpsons on Inside The Actors Studio, but Buffalo Boy led me to an edited version that's 9:03 of pure hilarity. It's worth another viewing.
A third trailer for The Simpsons Movie aired last night. This appears to be the footage they watched on AI the other day.
The highlight of yesterday's American Idol was the footage of the contestants viewing a sneak peek of the upcoming Simpsons movie. There was quite a bit of new footage there and some interesting behind the scenes shots. Here it is, if you missed it. Oh yeah, there was also some
From the time it was revealed they were finally going to do it, I've been anticipating July 27, 2007. That's the day The Simpsons Movie will hit theatres. I'm nervous. Things I read cause me concern. "We're still trying to figure out what the movie is about," admitted show producer
I just wrote about wrapping up season eight of The Simpsons on DVD. Since I mentioned it, I thought I'd reveal my Simpsons DVD watching routine. When a new season enters the home, I watch each episode twice. I watch it once with James and Michelle the way it was
When season eight of The Simpsons originally aired, I remember being amused but realizing that the glory days were long gone. I was still watching but I was looking back to the first five seasons wishing some things had never changed. I just finished season eight on DVD and I
Steve and I have been exchanging the same gift for years, but this Christmas we reached a new level of indolence. I bought him The Simpsons Season Nine on DVD and he bought me the same thing, only I bought the DVD with the plastic Maggie cover and he bought
Jewelgurl just sent me this. It's a virtual tour of the Simpsons house and it looks bang on.
I remember the cautious optimism when it was confirmed they were making a Simpsons movie. Then, it was leaked they were targeting 2008 for the films release. Marked on my Google calendar now is July 27, 2007, the scheduled release date. Tonight, the trailer will air during a new episode
During a sadly uninspired Treehouse of Horrors episode of The Simpsons last night, Homer was a green blob eating people. After devouring Dr. Phil he remarked that Dr. Phil tasted exactly like Jeffrey Tambor. That's what I say!
It looks like the ninth season of The Simpsons will be released on December 19. That makes it a virtual certainly that this annual tradition will continue. Of course, I'm falling a little behind. Season 8 has been out for over a month now and it hasn't found its way
