The Simpsons

I went to see "Live Free or Die Hard" today, which I believe is the official state movie sequel of New Hampshire.  I have nothing to say about the movie, other than it allows me to hold out the hope that I can be an action movie hero when I am in my fifties.  But I did get to see the trailer for "The Simpsons Movie".  Now, I had wondered what "The Simpsons" could do in a film that they couldn't do on TV.  Well, now I get it.  There are so many more stunts and action sequences in the movie than in a single televised episode.  Just paying the animated stunt doubles would have been prohibitive, to say nothing of the cost of insuring the stars, who are, after all, the franchise.  Just judging from the trailer, "The Simpsons Movie" looks very promising, indeed.

1 - Funny. Do you think Bart had his skateboard insured at Lloyd's of London? (Comment this)

2 - I'm pretty sure Bart's original skateboard is in a Planet Hollywood somewhere. (Comment this)
