The Simpsons ...

Saw "The Simpsons Movie" this morning and would love to share my thoughts about it. But the film's studio insists all review-type comments be held until Friday.

Not sure why the film deserves the state secret approach, but perhaps it's another way of generating buzz in an increasingly noisy media world.

Tune in Friday for my review.

You should blog about the power of "the buzz."

NBC has had "buzz-worthy" series that tank, financially, whilst "buzz-less" CBS profits off of advertising revenue unhappily.

It is show BUSINESS, where the bottom line IS the bottom line. How the "buzz" formula consistently persuades Green-lighter's decision making is beyond me.
