The Simpsons Movie Coming in 2006 Source: DVD Fanatic Tuesday, February 10, 2004

DVD Fanatic got a chance to talk to The Simpsons producer and writer Mike Reiss, who chatted about the next "Simpsons" DVD and says that The Simpsons movie is definitely in the works. Here's two clips from the interview.

Tom: What can you tell us about the movie? We've heard that there was supposed to be a "Simpsons" movie for the past several years but you don't want to just simply put three episodes together, so how are you creating something new that's not been done before?

Mike: That's been the biggest challenge. They've wanted to do this since season two. It's been 13 years of wanting to do "The Simpsons" Movie. Finally FOX said, "Let's just do it!" We never had the greatest idea that was compelling but FOX said, "Maybe if we start paying you, you'll get inspired." And sure enough it worked! We've got a very good and interesting idea and it's different from the show. You know, it's like the "South Park" movie where it's just a bigger, longer, amplified version of the show. I can't tell you anything specific about it. My wife doesn't even know the secret.

Tom: When do you think "The Simpsons" movie will come out?

Mike: I will say two years from this summer. I think it's going to be Summer 2006 or maybe Christmas 2006. It's a reality after being just sort of this phantom idea. I think it is really gonna happen.

I wish they'd say "Let's just do it" about bringing back Firefly. The more I watch it the angrier I get that they gave it the axe before it even finished airing all of it's episodes. Thankfully I have the DVD set, but there are so many unanswered questions, and the show has been at the top of every list that I've seen,of great shows that should still be on the air. Oh, well... my rant on FOX is over for the time being.

I look forward to seeing what they will do with the Simpsons on a feature, it will be interesting to see how well it will do in theatres. I would think they would have to do something pretty wild to get a large audience despite the fact that they do have a solid base.
