I feel ashamed...

While attempting to find movies, games, etc that I can review for you, I made the fatal error of watching "The Simpsons Movie".

The Simpsons Movie (2007)

Watching this movie is enough to make you want to confess all your sins to God, and send yourself to hell so that the Lord Almighty cannot smite his/her awesomeness upon you. Not that he/she would, but you're all too thick to know that anyway. Well, lets get down to ripping this movie apart. Stupid, majorly unfunny at points, took too long to get released, but it is far better than the tv series is right now. The sheer plot of this movie took approximately 15 years to accomplish, but "accomplish" implies they gained something other than the worlds shitiest movie award. I know it took this long because the script has been circling the drain since I was a little cynical boy who enjoyed watching The Simpsons every night and day, but their strength in jokes has plummeted with their dignity as the show has gone on for far too long. Fox continues to shove shit like this in our faces while they continue to cancel great tv shows such as Firefly and Arrested Development. You think they might have learned that despite the fact that The Simpsons are still, somehow, popular, you really need to get something new around. I think that's why Family Guy was created. Rude, racist, but hilariously funny. Yet, sometimes I feel their humour is lacking a few things every now and then. But lets get back to the matter at hand. Although the movie manages to shove its hand down its throat and share its vomit covered jokes, the movie just lacks the laughs I would expect. In fairness, I never expected this movie to be good, but I thought I'd watch it for the sake of it, nothing more. If somehow this movie became the beacon of light that everyone claimed it might be then I might renounce my faith and create the Church of Unlikely Gods, but unfortunately that never happened. The few highlights of the movie are watching Green Day die, having everyone in the town of Springfield trying to kill The Simpsons, and also the part where it was far more entertaining than the current tv series. But that last comment could be disregarded as it could be seen as an episode with several parts, so technically it is as funny/unfunny as the series, but with all of it combined you come up with a smile that may cross my face.
