Play It Again Sam Simon

The Simpsons Movie
Praise Jebus!
Trailers & MOe!

When we last left off, we were sweaty, dazed & funfused, and about 1/2 hour shy of seeing this baby thru til the end. This film musta been sum tang special, cause how else would you explain my return to theater the very next evening to finish it off? As one of the rare few who've now seen this movie 1 & 2/3 times, I muss say, it holds up on repeat viewings. I still laffed at the bits I was chompin at on the first go around, and the last 1/3 made the second trip all worth it. While some are disappointed that the creators didn't divert from the usual winning formula that they established for years on the idiot box, I say, if it aint baroque broke, then why fix it? So many shows that have made the quantum leap to the big screen have failed miserably because they tried to take the material in a different direction. So kudos to you Simpsons Movie! For you hath reminded me of why I loved The Simpsons so much. Maybe when they realize that the TV show has purty much run its course (yeah, try 4 years ago), they'll pour all their efforts into releasing a Simpsons flick ever year in theaters. You might say that canceling the show is sacrilegious, but I say, mmmmm, sacrilicious!
