I’m not sure how I feel about it, but the BBC is reporting that the Simpsons will be released in movie form with about a year. Now I could be a sucker and falling for yet another April Fool’s Joke, but this news hits me in a few various ways.
I’d love nothing more than have this be true, but Homer and crew on the big screen? It’s a great concept, and I’m sure there will be droves of people who will flock to the theatres to see it. However, the Beavis and Butthead movie signaled the end to that franchise. Are we in for the same thing?

Well, you’ve probably seen the teaser trailer by now so, yes, The Simpsons Movie is for real, July 27, 2007. http://youtube.com/watch?v=_ZEBITMoJuQ
I saw an initial mention of it in, I think, one of my LiveJournal communities where they said Greoning planned to end the series either with some huge grand finale or a movie. If that’s true then this will mark the end of the Simpsons and is several years overdue.
