I don't care if you wish to call me an arrogant bitch or something even nastier than this for saying this, but you'll understand if you've seen the movie:  you've simply got to be fluent in English in order to fully capable of appreciating the Simpsons.  Dubbing or even just subtitles won't do it at all.  So much essence is lost through translation that the original joke is either changed or completely sabotaged. 


Yeah, you might laugh at Homer's silliness, and Bart's recklessness.  You might think Lisa is so hilariously nerdy, and chuckle when Maggie sucks her pacifier.  Yet you might never understand the difference between the Irish accent and their American accent.  And how does one catch the joke about advertising during movies without the translation through subtitles.  Give it up.  The Simpsons is genuinely made for Americans.  Americans only.


Hey, but once you are capable of enjoying the movie, you'll see that this is yet another one of those movies that is trying to unveil some 'inconvenient truth'.  Perhaps you'll walk out the theater, still laughing your head off about the little scenario as the credits roll.  You'll forget everything that has happened in the movie and continue to live your life as you always have.


BEWARE!  Because you never know!  One day you'll wake up, and you'll finally discover the truth: you are living in a dome! 



Here's the trailer for the movie:




ps.  Do me a favor: DO NOT BRING YOUR KIDS ALONG

  • 我以前﹝還沒生阿米兒時﹞最愛看the Simpsons了,尤其是它的內容有時會影射一些政治社會現象,更是讓人會心一笑!
  • 應該是說那就是他的主題
    這也證實了:
    不是是卡通就適合小孩子看
    也不是只有小孩子愛看卡通~

  • Well, I am going to wait until the DVD comes out. It's a lot cheaper to rent the movie then to watch them in theater.
  • Of course.
    You do that.
    It's not a must-see-on-big-screen sorta movie.
