When I first heard about The Simpsons going to the theaters I thought it was a joke – The Simpsons in the cinema? What the f? For me, The Simpsons have always been a series, short sequels of twenty minutes each that could be watched when eating a pizza after school/university or when waiting for the girlfriend to finish her hair. – but a movie?
I was not surprised when many people told me the movie sucked, but still many others that were no Simpsons fans (original fans) went to the cinemas and told me to go watch this movie. They are now Simpsons fans. So can one say, the movie lost old fans, but generated more new fans?
Certainly the movie was a blockbuster and played in several million $ (some $250m to my knowledge), then news hit the ground of a Simpsons game being released soon… Season 18 was a full success and now Fox offers (or thinks of offering) Season 19 already on Fox on Demand.
2007 – Year of the Simpsons?
