Lord of The Curry Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Now, as a huge fan of Simpsons during their prime I will be seeing this movie out of loyalty due to the amount of one-liners and quotes it's given me to use in my everyday life. Having said that I expect this to be the nail in the coffin for the franchise. Every single clip or line I've seen/heard from trailers, commercials etc. have made me cringe. I'll be there opening night but I'll be there with the expectations that I'll leave the theater with less respect for the people involved then I do now.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I always thought it was meant to be a parody of itself and other pop culture references. So that's why I didn't mind the trailers and stuff, but I will probably wait for the DVD to see it.
razazteca Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I wish I had a 7-11 that was converted into a Qwicky Mart here so I can buy pink donunts and super sugary squishys
SamoaRowe Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Come on, that "spider-pig" moment in the trailer killed me. In a good way.
BlackFlagg Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 man I was there was a Kwik-E-Mart near here, I want a Squishee and a pink donut dammit...mmmm, sprinkles....
DrVenkman PhD Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Every 7-11 has that stuff. I'm looking forward to the movie but will not be totally surprised if it's not very good.
Cheech Tremendous Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I am a long time Simpsons fan but that trailer makes the movie look absolutely brutal. It totally emphasizes the crap that made the franchise start to fall in the first place.
treble Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 For some reason, that Spider-pig thing kills me. I think I've seen about 4 new episodes over the past 3 or 4 years, but I'll go see this. It'll probably disappoint, but that's what happens when you're billing it as one of the biggest movie of all time.
Lord of The Curry Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Posted July 13, 2007 They're billing it as the biggest movie of all time? Seriously?
4hartthreat Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 I'm looking forward to this. I don't know what to expect though. But I can be added to the list of people who think the "spider-pig" moment in the trailer is hilarious. The song and the look on Marge's face are priceless. That's the clip that has given me hope and raised my anticipation for this film. I'm glad we're finally getting a Simpson's movie.
Lord of The Curry Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Posted July 13, 2007 If that spider-pig line gives you hope then I have no sympathy for the feelings of disappointment you'll get leaving the theater.
treble Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 They're billing it as the biggest movie of all time? Seriously? I'm not sure if they've used those exact words, but saying stuff like 'the movie event 18 years in the making' will set the standards pretty high.
the max Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 No Kwik-E-Marts down here, but certainly 7-11 has Buzz Cola, donuts, squishies, etc. I've gotten the Buzz Cola a few times.
Red Baron Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 I'll see it on a cheap night. I just hope they throw a few F-Bombs in there so its not a total waste.
NoCalMike Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 I am seeing it. I am sure it will be a hell of a lot funnier then it will get credit for.
2GOLD Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 Other than the mild chuckle I got from the moments of Homer with the pig, the movie looks horrible. I will try and wait for the 3 dollar theater to show it unless I hear tons of positive things about it. I'm currently waiting for Hostel 2 and LFODH to get there so another one wouldn't hurt.
J.T. Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 Our Kwik-E Mart here in Vancouver gets LOADED with asians (who live here) that treat it like a tourist attraction. Its retarded. You have to go after 9PM to keep your sanity. I think the movie will end up being as good as the Family Guy movie was. Any goos lines will be due to the languege/Content that they can use for the theater. Any PG good lines would have already been used by now throughout its 18 year run.
Lord of The Curry Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Posted July 14, 2007 I'll see it on a cheap night. I just hope they throw a few F-Bombs in there so its not a total waste. Anything more then one F-bomb equals an R rating so there's next to no chance you'll see that going down.
Mik Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 Well, I read in an article that... they do an Austin Powers type montage where Bart's dick keeps getting covered by random objects and then it misses once and you see it. I'm not sure how accurate the article was.
Lord of The Curry Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Posted July 14, 2007 Yeah, I'm doubting that one.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted July 15, 2007 Report Posted July 15, 2007 i was kinda but not surprised it got pg-13'd. Im gonna go see it the day it opens.
luke-o Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 I'm genuinly excited for this flick. I've always felt that hating on the Simpsons was done because it was "cool" to do, like hating John Cena in 2005.
Star Ocean 3 Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 It's done because the show has had many genuinely horrible episodes.
Red Baron Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 I'll see it on a cheap night. I just hope they throw a few F-Bombs in there so its not a total waste. Anything more then one F-bomb equals an R rating so there's next to no chance you'll see that going down. Your kidding me? Thats the most idiotic thing I've ever heard.
