UK Fans Cheer for Simpsons Preview

Ten full minutes of footage from The Simpsons Movie was shown to a London audience on the 4th of July, as the British were not spending the day lighting fireworks and grilling out on hot coals. Instead, they were watching a preview for the much-anticipated Simpsons big-screen premiere, which will be released worldwide later this month. The clip suggests that religion and environmentalism will be a big part of the plot, but the animated FOX series is well-known for their misleading plot placement.

Kwik-E-Mart Coming to Your Neighborhood 7-Eleven?
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Animation, Comedy, Prime Time, FOX,
Anyone with even remote knowledge of The Simpsons is familiar with the Kwik-E-Mart convenience store on the series. The current 7-Eleven marketing promotion converts a dozen of the stores into Kwik-E-Marts for the upcoming The Simpsons Movie. A stroke of genius, to be sure, but a bit of a rip for fans of the animated classic who aren’t in proximity to a 7-Eleven. Fear not, however, because most of the other 6,000 locations will also sell Simpsons’ inspired products, including Squishees (a.k.a. Slurpees), Buzz Cola and KrustyO’s cereal. I’d think for even the mildest Simpsons fans, these would be coveted items to own. The Simpsons Movie will open on July 27 and you can bet that people will be pouring into the theaters for a glimpse of Homer on the big screen. If you do live near one of the transformed stores, you’ll see the exteriors look decidedly like the animated Kwik-E-Mart—so, lucky residents of New York City, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Burbank, Los Angeles, Henderson (Nevada), Orlando (Florida), Mountain View (California), Seattle and Bladensburg (Maryland)... check it out soon, because your area Kwik-E-Mart will only be around for this month.
