We went to see it on Sunday. Catherine really enjoyed it, and I was a little disappointed because, we agreed, I'd had higher expectations. We both thought there was too much of a Simpsons focus, and not enough of the other characters -- I suspect for me there was too much of the trajectory that leads back to the family, too much sentimental stuff (e.g. the Lisa subplot, the central focus on Homer/Bart & Homer/Marge), and not enough of the anarchy / frustrated desires which usually keeps the balance. Individual episodes often tip one way or the other, I was just sorry the movie went the wrong way for me.

ok here is what felt off to me:
i. yes it didn't go off towards the other characters remotely enough
ii. but when it did it felt like it didn't EARN their little dance of shtick
iii. ie in this regard it was always pimping off set-ups from the show, like students repeating monty python sketches
iv. but what else could/would it do? and why does this feel wrong?
v. this is a POLITICS OF FORM question but i haven't worked out the answer
vi. it relates to the sanctity of family but i'm not sure how yet
vii. it was kind of like no more than a rather long ordinary ep, but maybe it would have worked better if it was MORE like that

This is why I decided to see the Harry Potter movie instead, which was a mistake because I BLUBBED when I saw Hedwig, pregnancy hormones are a scary scary thing.

I love the Simpsons, but if the trailers are anything to go by the movie didn't seem like anything special.

I ran into my friend Chris in Governors Park; he said the Simpson movie sucked, but that Ozzy Osbourne was real good last Saturday. Ozzy jumped around a lot; but after the show Ozzy was taken to the hospital because of bloodclots in his feet.
