The cost of seeing movies in theaters has gotten ridiculous. James, I know you’re a movie maker and that having people see movies in theaters is your life blood, but…jesus. $10 bucks per person (that isn’t even imax or 3D, just regular show) you take your wife or girlfriend and you spend $20 bucks JUST TO GET IN THE DOOR. Buy 1 large popcorn and 2 drinks and that’s another $10. We are now at $30 to see a movie ONCE when I can wait like 3 months and buy the fucking DVD or Blu Ray for $15 or $20 and watch it as many times as I want, get special features, get commentary, and get subtitles because I can’t hear for shit. Movie theaters are going to disappear probably in my lifetime. I’m 32, and I’m confident theaters are going to all but completely disappear before I die. It’s just not worth it to most people. Unless people are willing to lower their profit margin (which they aren’t) prices are just going to keep going up and up and up…until people stop going to movies altogether. And as long as shitty mediocre movies keep coming out, nobody is going to pay the outrageous prices period. It’s not piracy that’s killing hollywood, its their own greed and lack of imagination. When Hollywood starts making a product that people are willing to pay for (and that people are ABLE to pay for) then you’ll see more people going to the movies.

@Senna4ever

That depends on how you define CG, since the key animation and the inbetweens are all still hand drawn, even if it’s composited and colored using a computer. Even much more recently that they’ve begun drawing on tablets instead of paper, there’s still no digital inbetweening, so I think that’s still something.

@ ronniemation “it was just one long episode.”

Why do people use this as a critique?
Of course it’s like one long episode it’s The Simpsons a normally 22 min show made into a 90 min movie.
That kind of comment is inane.
What exactly were you expecting the movie to be like other then a longer version of The Simpsons?

As for James’ comment about it being nice to not have a CG animated film. The entire film is CG. The Simpsons has been animated on computer for years now.
This movie was CG from start to finish.

The movie was entertaining but something i wouldnt watch over and over again (even though I have the DVD). How simpsons episodes i watch over and over again. Family Guy has been around 9/10 years and is already boring cuz they really use the same jokes over and over, and the simpsons is more like Smart Suttle Humor, so it’s very different and harder to get old. That’s my two cents. But Ill always love the Simpsons and I have no fear cuz theyll have stories for years like Marge becomes a roboooooooooooot.

Family Guy – Simpsons crossover. It will happen 🙂
