It’s time to admit this movie wasn’t very good.

That's what everyone here says about this movie

Zoomers are born closer to the movie than the Tracey Ullman shorts.

>this whole show was never good
Fix.

seasons 2-10 were peak anon

>>150255342
Seasons two through 16 were some of the best TV series in history

Not 10, that was the Billy Baldwin episode.

It's a fun way to kill an afternoon if you've never seen it before. The low points are pretty bad and the emotional scenes don't hit at all, tho.

It's wasnt very good it was regular good.

GET THEM OUT
GET THEM OUT OF HERE

I like The Simpsons Movie but it has the same problem as the Spongebob movie in that the movie isn't anywhere near as good as any solitary episode of the show's "golden era".
Both movies also have a weirdly different feel than the show where everything feels "off".

Marge’s recording to Homer is the best moment in the entire franchise

I miss when The Simpsons was a good TV show

You weren't even around when it was good zoomer.

It's way better than what the show was putting out at the time it was released, but good lord that's not saying much.

I hung out with a former producer of the show and he talked about how they brought back a lot of the original behind the scenes creatives who hadn't been on the show for several years so they really didn't have the feel for where the show had gone since their time and that's why the movie was a bit disconnected from the series.

I continue to wonder when gisnep will shit out the eventual sequel. The movie turns 20 years old in 2 years. Perfect opportunity to rerelease it to theaters and spit out a sequel circa 2028.

The Simpsons ride is the bigger stinker here compared to the film.
>no AC
>long as fuck wait times
>mediocre experience by the end of it
>literally just a reskin of the BTTF ride, down to the use of screens and hydraulic cart
Atleast it makes all the other rises in Studios look better. It's about as bad as Jimmy Fallon and FatF on its own.

>>150255626
I still wish both had marked the end of their respective franchises

>>150255284 (OP)
It was fine, but felt mostly as a really long episode. It could Easily be an hour special.
Modern tv simpson nowadays is 20 times worse

>>150255626
I think Spongebob's movie was still pretty good. The only part that doesn't really work is Spongebob and Patrick having an entire arc about being kids since in the show they're more like different flavors of adult manchildren.

They're "kids" from the perspective of characters older than them, like Krabs or Plankton. When you reach a certain age, you do basically view younger adults (e.g., those in their early 20s) still as kids due to their lack of perspective, experience, their naivety, etc. Hence why Spongebob wasn't considered ready for the manager position.
The point is more about Spongebob and Patrick being kids at heart and all that.

Probably for the best though. The thing most fans of old-school Simpsons liked about the movie is it had relatively little of the worst elements of the show in the Scully and Jean eras, not as many cheap jokes and puns (Jean) or shock humor (Scully) even though both men were working on the movie.

What it felt like was a good but not great extra-long episode of Classic Simpsons, but it was never a match for a really great episode.

The Albert Brooks character kind of sums up the movie, he’s funny but not anywhere near as funny as Hank Scorpio (who he was originally supposed to be, but I have my doubts he could have matched the original even if he had been).

The timing was bad, but it could’ve been released in the golden age and still not felt right. It’s a piece of merchandise like the comics and video games.

You are at least 15 years late here man.

Yeah pretty much. Felt like a good extended season 9 or 10 episode to me.

I felt like I was crazy when everyone was going nuts over spider-pig. The naked skateboard gag was probably the one bit where I actually laughed out loud

tf were they so obsessed with Bart's dick for? shit was creepy.

The movie was about them being tested more than usual and criticizing our apathy towards environmentalism and the government failing and the contradictions associated with marriage, parenting, and religion with all those values tied to them. Basically all of the original points of The Simpsons. Environmentalism and the government are more Lisa-centric stories but they are the ground for joke fodder and overall edginess associated with 90's Simpsons being carried over to the 00's.
If they do make a sequel, I dunno, I'd like them to do one about something like Krusty or some corporate leader taking over Springfield and running all of the characters out of business and sucking the fun out of communal American stuff.
Like that Bowling Alone book.
Mr Burns either joins the new leader or fails himself due to how much control this new character has and how much more surveillance there is regarding customer behavior and the even more bottom of the barrel products they provide.
I mean this is all stuff Mapple and other episodes that people hate covered but I dunno only something like that would be what I consider good ground for a new movie to go over.
Maybe some scenes or some brief lines of how more and more people are dying or aging out of the community has to be shown due to the show slowly dying due to IRL people dying. I dunno maybe not. But an ending where Springfield has new citizens that remember people individually and how they impacted Springfield would be a spiritual ending to the show.
Also what happened to Colin? I thought he would stick around not even as Lisa's bf. I could've seen him getting flaws and being like the Fry to Lisa's Leela. I know he appears in that post-movie intro but I forget if he just moves or something.

It's funny that naked Bart comes with the twins.

i'd have rather seen Marge topless tbqh

>>150255359
Half of 9 and all of 10 were the Mike Scully era, that was the start of the decline.

>>150255284 (OP)
of course, it's a shitty movie. Only a moron thinks it's any good
a 03/10 garbage
