“Don’t like to nap, eh? We have a place for babies like you: the box.” – Ms. Sinclair
On a single viewing, The Longest Daycare, which premiered this morning in theaters near and far with Ice Age 4, was very good. I say on a single viewing because this has the feel of elder seasons way more than the movie did, and way way more than Zombie Simpsons does (including the animation), so I’m sure once it inevitably finds its way to home video most Simpsons fans will watch it at least a couple of times. I’ve changed my opinion on a few episodes as we’ve done Crazy Noises, so I don’t want to say that I’m going to love it forever, but on first impression, it impressed.
Consider this an open thread. Jebus willing I’ll have a longer post up on Monday.

Still no comments.
I think the moral here is that nobody wants to pay for an Ice Age sequel just to watch a five minute Simpsons short.
Yeah, I’m kinda surprised by this. Sneaking in to see just this and then going to see another movie would be trivially easy (at least at the googolplexes around here), but even the thread at No Homers is pretty barren. Most of the posts are from when it was announced, and only like two people posting have actually seen it. Ice Age 4 wasn’t terrible either, it’s not a must-see movie by any stretch of the imagination, but I wasn’t bored, and it was certainly more fun than Zombie Simpsons.
