Actually I think it is. The movie was called "The Simpsons Movie" so they're calling the game "The Simpsons Game". Why else would they have a new Simpsons game with that title?
I just found out that Matt Groening is going to be the final boss in this game. I'd love to see that!
The game isn't based on the movie. It's going to be one big parody of different games like Gtand Theft Auto, Medal of honour, Batman begins, Nintendogs & EA itself.
Apperantly The Simpsons are aware that they are in a video game (Albeit forced to take part) and get to choose their own powers.
Most of the game is self-refferential. With most of the references so far being from Treehouse of horror episodes. Eg. You have to fight the giant Lard lad statue, you have to fight the killer dolphins & also Homer can become that green blob he was in the last Treehouse of horror episode.
You also have to fight the loggers from the episode "Homer to the Max".
