The Nutcan senior staff writers will be attending a midnight screening of the most anticipated movie of the year - the Simpsons movie - a movie that's been 18 years in the making. Was/is it the best movie of the summer?

Best movie ever. Obviously I am not going to say anything about the plot, but I laughed throughout the whole movie. It didn't disappoint, which was surprising considering how long we'd (collectively as a whole fan base) waited for it. However, if you're under 18 (i.e. are younger than the age of the show) you shouldn't be allowed to go to the first screening. Not because they were loud or anything, but what do they know about the show?		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

My initial impression is: good, not great. Of course, when I go back and think of the best jokes, I realize it was pretty entertaining. But still, I feel like there was room for improvement. They obviously had a big task on their hands in making a movie that could live up to the bar set by themselves and the fans. They did a good job. But it wasn't like it reached a new level of excellence or anything. I won't go into specifics though, I don't want to reveal anything more. To recap, good, not great. Worth seeing. I'd go see it again.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

I think they were between a rock and a hard place as far as the movie went. Despite the fact that I laughed the entire time I left feeling inexplicably disappointed.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

The first 20 minutes or so were excellent; the rest of the movie was too much like an extended episode of the series. It was still funny and definitely worth seeing (perhaps even multiple times) but, except for the first part, I guess I was expecting something bigger/different/special to warrant the movie treatment.

I saw it. It was hillarious. I had the same feelings as the rest of the previous bloggers, though. I was hoping for a lot more guest appearances. Tom Hanks was funny though.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

I was thinking it was going to be lame because they would come up with some lame way to shoehorn in like every secondary character who's ever had a line. Then I left somewhat disappointed at the lack of secondary characters.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

Sorry, I was too busy attending Lollapalooza and watching one of the best Pearl Jam shows of all time which included a brand-new anti-war song featuring Ben Harper, during the second encore of a 3 hour show.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.
