Spiderpig…Spiderpig…
Who could forget those infamous song lyrics by Homer J. himself? The sheer creepiness of Homer walking a pig on his ceiling was intriguing enough to make me want to see the very first movie in the history of the long running The Simpsons television show. I admit, I was puzzled and wanted to know where the heck Homer got Spiderpig and why he was walking him across the Simpsons’ family ceiling. I was looking for something new and fresh in relation to the series, which is now in its 19th season. I was happily surprised by the results of The Simpsons Movie and that is why I am recommending the film to anyone reading this review.
I don’t typically recommend a film so early in a review, but I think it is safe to assume those reading this review will stick around to find out why I found The Simpsons Movie to be so enjoyable. The show needed something fresh and new to keep viewers interested in a show that has been on the air since I was a mere 8 years old (Just for reference, I’m currently 27). That kind of longevity is surprising in any show, let alone one that is animated. The previews for The Simpsons Movie looked interesting, but they really didn’t tell anything about the actual film. I went into this not knowing what to expect or even what the story was about. That being said, I’m glad I now know the power of Spiderpig.

Our Love Affair is a Wondrous Thing… That We’ll Rejoice in Remembering…
That enchanting song gets in my head and brings to life wonderful memories of one of my favorite movies. I would say that Cary Grant is at the top of my list of favorite actors and his performance in An Affair to Remember only strengthens my belief that he is one of the greatest actors of all time. All of the credit cannot go to Grant though. The elegant and talented Deborah Kerr, with whom Grant has such amazing chemistry, puts in the performance of a lifetime. Now, I have the ultimate An Affair to Remember DVD to keep the memory of their performances, and one of the only love stories I think is worthy of watching, alive.
New generations will fall in love with this classic, which their mothers/fathers and even their grandparents once loved so dearly. Every time I review a classic film that is as superb as An Affair to Remember I say ‘they don’t make movies like this anymore’. Well I’m saying it again. Not one of the new films I’ve seen this year can hold a candle to the magnificent creations of old Hollywood. Actors were held to a higher standard and that standard typically demanded that not only would the story be of a higher caliber, but the actors and directors would be held to the highest level. I remember watching An Affair to Remember as a teenager and truly enjoying the story. I feel the same way about it today.
Second Installment of THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR franchise to be produced by Pierce Brosnan’s Irish DreamTime Productions
LOS ANGELES , CA November 14, 2007 – Continuing to place high priority on building out its own tent pole franchises, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. has signed Paul Verhoeven to direct the highly anticipated romantic thriller THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR 2, the second installment in MGM’s highly successful THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR franchise. Rick Sands, MGM’s Chief Operating Officer, made the announcement today.
The next installment of the Thomas Crown franchise sweeps across Europe and the Middle East as Crown becomes entangled in a centuries old feud and must decide how much he’s truly willing to risk for love. MGM and Irish DreamTime will produce THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR 2. Brosnan and Beau St. Clair will serve as producers for Irish DreamTime along with D. Constantine Conte. The start date of production will be determined shortly.
“THOMAS CROWN is a rich blend of dramatic tension, high adventure, romance and just the right touch of humor,” said Sands. “Paul’s body of work demonstrates his ability to deftly combine those elements while telling a story that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. His directorial talents complement Pierce’s portrayal of the Thomas Crown character and we’re all looking forward to an engaging and entertaining film.”
