Free Music Notes for The Simpsons Movie: Limited Edition Donut Packaging
Free Music Review: Be VERY clear here, THIS IS NOT A MOVIE; it's the soundtrack !!!!
Hit: 3 Stars
The case is cute and functional; the soundtrack is "fair to middling"; w/ glimpses of brilliance. But I prefer the movie to just the soundtrack and for less $$$ (and no doughnut) you get both..... I own both just the same. I know the doughnut can only increase in value; because it nevers gets stale. Tee Hee, D'oh !!!!Free Music Review: Donut is great!
Hit: 3 Stars
I on the other hand bought it not knowing there was a donut and was excited to find it! The music is good classical soundtrack type music, BUT! It doesn't have any dialogue snippets or Homer singing spider pig, which is why I bought it in the first place!Free Music Review: Five Stars for the CD, No stars for the Donut- averages to 2.5
Hit: 2 Stars
I'm a huge Simpsons fan- I'm a huge Hans Zimmer fan, when I first heard the two would combine- my first thought was, "Why Hans Zimmer?" Alf Clausen does an amazing job on the show, and Danny Elfman's theme song is one of the most recognizeable themes and songs ever- but I must say the score is impressive. It has a 90's family comedy feel to it. It bounces, it really complimetns the movie VERY well and was a big surprise to me. The soundtrack is just amazing, and the Choral version of "Spider Pig" is nothing beyond genius- to hear an Acappella choir singing Spider Pig (an extended version of the one heard in the movie) is magic and hilarious. The soundtrack is a must have.
The box, unfortunatly Is NOT worth the price. The picture is VERY misleading- the donut pictured looks almost edible. The Donut I received looks like Dark pink Plastic with Dark colored Sprinkles- it's much shorter than the picture would have you believe- and it doesn't even have a hole in it!! Add to that the fact that you're actually paying ALL THAT extra money for cheap plastic casing and a box. The box is a nice gift box, but that's about it. I sort of expected something a little better made- something not so shiny- perhaps a matte finish on the frosting- but all I got was a shiny plastic case. Even the booklet offers nothing new, the exact same booklet as the regular soundtrack
My advice, unless your the ultimate Simpsons fans, then this is a must own, unless you're that fanatic about it- and even if you ARE that big a fan- it's definilty NOT worth the money. Buy the regular soundtrack.

I bought this for a Simpsons fan, who since seeing the movie, had been obsessed by the spider pig song. Given the cute packaging, I thought it worth 'importing' this item to Australia and I had high expectations. Unfortunately the packaging was not as cute as I thought it would be. It is cheap looking and doesnt have the characteristics you would expect of a replica donut. The music is not good with the only thing worth putting on the i-pod is the spider pig songs. Maybe next time I will download and not only save the environment but postage money too.Free Music Review: nothing too spectacular
Hit: 2 Stars
the "donut" is quite cheaply made and the little round part in the center that holds the CD in place seems quite brittle. The music was okay...just okay.
