Medical marijuana was very good. Fantasy camp and Gay guys weren't bad either.

LOL At the people who said: "People won't pay to go see something they can see for free."
[ QUOTE ] 20th Century Fox's official Friday estimate shows The Simpsons Movie made $30 million Friday -- or what the studio hoped its toon would make all weekend -- and could have an $80 million weekend. That's more than Transformers made on its opening day and best single day this summer, and good enough for The Simpsons to slot into the Hollywood's Top 17 opening days of all time (right behind the $30.1 mil of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones). But the well reviewed (a score of 88% positive critiques on Rotten Tomatoes) and wide release (playing in 3,922 North American theaters) pic managed an outstanding per screen average of 7,649 Friday. It's also playing huge overseas [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: ***The Simpsons Movie Official Thread***
I think the very well-established overseas market for the Simpsons is going to mean this thing will do amazing business, maybe unprecedented. This thing has legs.

20th Century Fox's official Friday estimate shows The Simpsons Movie made $30 million Friday [/ QUOTE ] I'm not at all surprised. I bought tickets for a Thursday midnight showing at like 7pm on Wednesday. At 3pm Thursday I checked because I had a few more friends who wanted to come, it was sold out. At 4pm the theater added another showing. At 7pm that was sold out. |

Re: ***The Simpsons Movie Official Thread***
I nodded off for a good part of it. I got dragged along to the theater even though I was dead tired. I enjoyed a lot of it.
"Idiot proof"+Cletus+dead possum strangely, I was the only one in the theater audibly laughing. It reminded me of the Beavis and Butthead, where Beavis pulls live worms out of his pocket to regurgitate to save teh baby bird. "Beavis, why do you have worms in your pocket?" "It feels good." |

Re: ***The Simpsons Movie Official Thread***
Just got back from the movie...it was nothing short of terrible. The idiot next to me had to cover his mouth because he was laughing so hard, so I guess some people loved it. I should add that I think the show became unwatchable about five years ago, so I'm no diehard Simpsons fan. Still, it was borderline unwatchable, and I felt like I was at a kids' movie.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm a diehard, but only for up to season 12 or so. It had some moments, but I didn't find it funny overall. The first fifteen minutes were solid, but they have just made Homer into a complete idiot. There were jokes here and there that elicited a chortle from me, but my gf fell asleep halfway through it. A lot of people were laughing at parts I thought were very meh. The animation was great, though. |

Re: ***The Simpsons Movie Official Thread***
I saw it, not a huge Simpsons fan, though, when I'd watch it, I think I enjoyed it etc. Overall thought it was pretty solid, beginning started out really funny. not bad
