Ah, yes, the cash. Disney being a money-hungry movie-making machine is becoming a predictable trend, isn’t it? Ever since they bought half of Hollywood, many filmmakers and creators have been very afraid of Disney looking at movies and TV as solely dollar signs. That’s not entirely Disney’s fault, they are running a business after all. But one hopes that Groening isn’t being 100% sincere when he says Disney would simply make another Simpsons film because of the cash it would bring in. Let’s hope they would commission another movie because the writers and crew and performers had another story they wanted to tell. Am I being too naive? Yes, probably.

The question is when would this second Simpsons film come out? Would Disney decide to make it after the series concludes? There has been a lot of speculation about when The Simpsons will finally wrap up its TV run, with some guessing it’ll be within the next few years. So if the show does actually end, would we get a movie right after? A final big-screen farewell to Sprinfield’s most famous family? That makes sense to me but I’m not Disney. Maybe the studio will decide to somehow tie The Simpsons into Star Wars, Marvel and the countless other properties they now own.
