The Simpsons Movie was actually very entertaining.

(Yes, the newer episodes aren’t as good, but it’s difficult to keep up something that hilarious for years and years!) The trailer shows what the movie is about pretty well, which is what it’s supposed to do… (minus the romantic troubles, but whatever XP)…

you know why this is “a little disappointing”? because you’ve hyped up a TEASER so much by saying “OHHHHHH LOOK ITS A NEW SIMPSONS MOVIE TRAILER” if you watch the actual trailer you would find it much less disappointing

The downloadable trailer is not in HD! It is less than 1280 x 720 pixels and is also blurry.

Looks brutal. (But do I think y’all are being a bit harsh.)

Good observation Incredibly Fatman,

That was the first thing that went through my mind… that I was watching 3D animation.

The Trailer looked great. I could have done without the opening 3D bunny stuff, but that’s for the non Simpson fans I’d wager? Those who wouldn’t be expecting an animated film not in 3D? I hope.

It’s just a complete rip-off of the South Park Movie trailer with the joke about uber-animators using the latest techniques while a 3D Cartman head is being drawn in wireframe. Oh well.

Geez, you guys are harsh! I agree that the trailer doesn’t make me want to go see the movie (hell, I don’t even watch the show very often any more, and it’s FREE), but I think it’s not so much that the show is any better or worse than it was when it started, it’s just been on forever, so anyone who watched it at the start really probably ought to be bored by now. On the other hand, topical references are best when they’re, well, topical, so I imagine that people who only tuned in for the last year or two think it’s as funny as I used to think back in the day.

@Incredibly Fatman – I thought the same thing. -)

The trailer was funny, I guess, but I was disappointed because it was so hyped up.

And The Simpsons has been going downhill for the past few years. Remember the episode they had after the Super Bowl a few years back? It stunk big-time. They really need to just take the show off the air.

@mark: It wasn’t un-funny because it was anti-war, it was un-funny because it was just not funny. The last few seasons have gone WAY downhill… And I was a major fan in years gone by. (The anti-war thing is just a coincidence that two episodes in a row now are anti-war.)

And any cartoon is now considered to be “ripping off” The Simpsons it seems. Whatever.

not a terrible trailer, although i would’ve liked moe to say something in response to the narrator’s “one film dares to be ugly” instead of just stating what we can all read. looks like it could be a decent movie though, i’ll go see it.

you do know the American Dad episode was probably created first in terms that it only takes Trey and Matt as little as 3 days to complete an episode (that’s why they can keep up with current events better) but it takes the animation studio for 20th Century Fox over 8 months to complete one episode. So in actuallity, just because South Park’s WoW episode aired first, Fox most likely had it planned months ahead of time…
