I don’t know if this should go in IMHO, but I was just reading the Cussing Aliens thread, and it reminded me of this.

IMHO part: Do you think it’s a good idea that they are making a Simpsons movie? Most movies based on TV shows have been crap - will this spoil a good thing?

MPSIMS part: Suggest Ideas for the movie.

My only requests: Make sure Tom Jones and The Ramones do cartoon cameos.

It’s actually in the works? I thought I had heard several interviews with members of the staff saying they would not make a movie until the series was over, so they could concentrate on each one separately. If they _ever_ released a live action Simpsons movie, in the style of the Flintstones, I would protest it. That would be an abomination. I’m a **big** Simpsons fan.
