having a movie under their belt (albiet animated, not live action) the Simpsons have had a lot of success that the Flintstones had. Even though their cereal didn't last as long as Pebbles.

But here's where they've gone this time...

That's really funny. And honestly, I'm surprised things like this didn't come out earlier!

The Flintstones did actually have one full-length, animated movie released in theatres.

The Man Called Flintstone (1966) was released after the series had ceased production. It was co-directed and co-written by Hanna/Barbera, and was a spoof of the then-current spy craze.

So that WAS theatrically released. I thought it was made for TV.

Anyway, As for the Simpsons, it took 17 years for a film.

The Jetsons pretty much waited over 20 years for one.

*We are Simpsons kids; 10 million strong and growing*

The Jetsons Cereal didn't last very long either. Pretty good by the way.
