Mmmm... Movie! The Simpsons Movie



    It takes a feature-length film to fully capture Homer Simpson's
    stupidity and The Simpsons Movie does it! One of the top grossing
    films of all time, The Simpsons Movie has generated more than $500
    million globally and will be available worldwide on DVD and Blu-Ray
    Disc (BD) Internationally on December 3 and in North America on
    December 18 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

    "One of the best movies of the year" (Washington Post), The
    Simpsons Movie stars Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright,
    Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria, Harry Shearer, Pamela Hayden and Tress
    MacNeille. Additionally, The Simpsons Movie also features the guest
    voice talents of Oscar nominee Albert Brooks, rock band Green Day and
    two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks.

    In the long anticipated film Time Magazine said was "well worth
    waiting for," The Simpsons Movie finds the fate of Springfield - the
    suburban setting that has been home to "The Simpsons" clan for more
    than 18 years - hanging in the balance when Homer and his new pet pig
    inadvertently cause a major ecological disaster in their hometown.
    Forced to flee, it is up to the paunchy patriarch to save his family,
    the Springfield community and possibly... the world.

    The Simpsons Movie was produced by the series' executive producer
    James L. Brooks, series creator Matt Groening, current show runner Al
    Jean, Mike Scully and Richard Sakai. "The Simpsons" series' veterans
    Ian Maxtone-Graham, George Meyer, David Mirkin, Mike Reiss, Matt
    Selman, John Swartzwelder and Jon Vitti joined Brooks, Groening, Jean
    and Scully to write the eagerly anticipated script, and David
    Silverman (Monsters Inc.) directed.

    The Simpsons Movie DVD is loaded with bonus features including
    commentaries with "Simpsons" writers/producers, actors and directors,
    numerous deleted scenes and promotional spots including The Simpsons
    Judge American Idol and Homer's Monologue On The Tonight Show. The
