Homer adopts a pig who's run away from Krusty Burger after Krusty tried to have him slaughtered, naming the pig "Spider Pig." At the same time, the lake is protected after the audience sink the barge Green Day are on with garbage after they mention the environment. Meanwhile, Spider Pig's waste has filled up a silo in just 2 days, apparently with Homer's help. Homer can't get to the dump quickly so dumps the silo in the lake, polluting it. Russ Cargill, the villainous boss of the EPA, gives Arnold Schwarzenegger, president of the USA, 5 options and forces him to choose 4 (which is, unfortunately, to destroy Springfield) and putting a dome over Springfield to prevent evacuation.

Goofs
(at around 36 mins) When the Simpsons are in Bart's tree house and it is being pulled down by a school bus, we see Grampa Simpson take aim at them with a shotgun that obviously has two barrels, but he cocks it by pumping it. A double barreled shotgun is cocked by pulling the hammer back. See more »

Crazy Credits
There are several short clips played throughout the end credits:- A scene revealing the fate of Mr. Burns and Smithers, a scene in which The Simpsons family sit through the end credits and a clip at the very end - a theatre employee (the Squeaky Voiced Teen) 'cleans up' the audience's mess.

Alternate Versions
For network television, the image is modified to fit a 16:9 screen (the same aspect ratio as later, high-definition episodes of the television series). As such, the aspect ratio never widens to 2.35:1 after the opening Itchy & Scratchy segment, and certain shots in the film (notably when Bart, in his tree, speaks to Flanders, in his house) are compressed horizontally to fit everything within frame.

I Don't want to give much away, but this movie truly is EPIC. The storyline is great, so is the animation. The movie is hilarious throughout, and also has one of the most emotional moments ever on The Simpsons. You can see just about every face ever on The Simpsons and they keep making subtle references, such as when Homer and Bart jump Springfield Gorge, the ambulance is still crashed into the tree.
It definitely rewards long-time fans, but it is a great movie even for those who don't watch the Simpsons. CGI only adds to the excellent drawings, and it is very cool to see them on the big screen!
If you love the Simpsons, Old or New, you will LOVE this.
