Simpsons Film in Preproduction 331
93,000 writes "According to Yahoo news, a Simpsons feature film is now in preproduction. In TFA, Nancy Cartwright is quoted as saying "We've just done the table read for The Simpsons movie, so although we've been promoting that we're going to do it, now we're actually doing it and are in production . . ." Also from TFA: "'They are working on hammering out a script, but there's no title or production date or release date,' studio spokeswoman Antonia Coffman told E! Online Wednesday. 'We always wanted the show to end first but it just keeps going. Now they've worked out a team to simultaneously do [both the film and show].'""

Oh and thanks for the keen observation about my current social and working situation as well as the genius of linking UID to age and maturity. If you represent the archetypal Slashdot 'golden-oldie' then perhaps I feel glad that I didn't register until I did. I'm sure such a venomous comment is really indicative about how much of a 'winner' you are.
