"The Simpsons Movie" (2007)
Directed by David Silverman, 2007's The Simpsons Movie followed Homer (Dan Castellaneta), Marge (Julie Kavner), Bart (Nancy Cartwright), Lisa (Yeardley Smith) and Maggie as their beloved town of Springfield was placed under a dome during an environmental crisis.
It earned nominations for Best Animated Film at the BAFTA Awards, Critics Choice Awards and the Golden Globes.
Back in 2007, Groening told BBC Movies about the popular TV show's journey to the silver screen.
"We've been talking about doing a movie since 1992 but we've always been working on the show. We work on it all year round and we do 24 episodes a year. We didn't have a team waiting in the wings ready to do a movie," he explained. "But finally we said we were coming up to our 20th year of existence and our 400th episode, so we should get a movie out."
