Simpsons Week

[Segurant]

You might have noticed that some of us are flashing Simpson style sigs.  Well in light of the the Simpsons movie (which was pretty good in my book)  The Seanchan is having a Simpson's week.  So post about your favorite Simpsons quotes, shows, characters, or your least favorite.

 

Also I wanted to give praise to Cadsuane for making us these sigs.  She rocks.

[Emperor]

she does indeed rock. 

 

Ummm.... I have never been a big fan of the simpsons, but I did watch the first few years of this show.

 

I do like Flanders and how happy he is all the time. 

[MsDanya]

those sigs does rock! I wish I had one but I couldnt make up something funny by myself  :P

 

well my fav character is definatly Maggy.. she rocks ;D I loved that thing she did with the bottle in the movie.. and the episode where Marge takes away her pacfier.. hehe hilrious!

 

I also love Smithers.. he is so obviuously gay and eeryone knows but Burns.. hehehehe

[Kivam]

how anyone could not love the simpsons is beyond me.

 

In the words of Comic Book Guy: "life well spent"

[Cadsuane]

Seg... all I have to say is...

 

 

 

;D  ;)

My favourite character is Homer. Although the others (like Ralph :D) are great, no one comes close to Homer.

 

I take a whiskey drink, I take a chocolate drink, and when I have to pee, I use the kitchen sink!

I sing the song that reminds me I'm a urinating guy.

I'm allergic to bee stings. They cause me to, uh, die.

In honor of Simpsons Week, I'd recommend you all experience the joy of being <a href="http://www.simpsonizeme.com">Simpsonized</a>!

 

It actually works pretty good, too! Here's what I look like Simpsonized...

Ok, now we have to make a "family" album with everyone together. Cads, care to do the honors?

[Haxorsist]

Aaaah, this thing is such a tease! First it starts the countdown at 700 seconds, and I wait patiently 'till there's 3 seconds left. Then the thing jumps back to 12 seconds over and over again. When I finally get past 3 seconds it jumps back to 800 seconds! *grmbles* I'm just gonna put on an episode of the Daily Show and hope it'll be done when the episode's over.

Mrs Krabappel: Is there a Mrs Comic Book Guy|

Comic Book Guy: I was once married on an online role playing game. We were going to have children but we ran out of power crystals.

 

Or something like that. Either way, my sense of humour was seriously tickeled  ;)

[Segurant]

Seg... all I have to say is...

Notes to Matt Groening from FOX Sensors Regarding The Simpsons Movie

 

 

Matt—

 

Wanted to check in and let you know we all really love the directions you’ve taken the Simpsons in for their first film (of many…remember your contract!), and while we appreciate you stretching your wings a bit in the transition, we do still want to nab that PG-13 rating. With that in mind, please look over the below list of some of the studio’s thoughts about the current cut.

 

 

    * Marge’s hair is a bit phallic for our tastes. Maybe for the movie she could get a nice bob or shoulder-length cut? Or, and we don’t want to interfere here, but maybe her hair is burned off in a chemical fire in the first act? In any case, we’re just not comfortable with one of the main characters’ hair being shaped like an erect blue penis. It invites the audience to imagine a giant blue vagina into which it might fit, and that’s going to hurt our opening weekend box office.

 

    * This isn’t a ratings concern so much, but one of our interns pointed out that the skin swatches you sent to the animators all came out pretty yellow. It’s hard to notice at first, but take a look at Homer and Bart especially. Good thing we caught that one! That’s the benefit of working with a studio that pays attention to the shows it produces.

 

    * You may not have noticed this yourself, but Mr. Burns’ evil plan to gain control of Springfield is startlingly similar to the September 11th attacks. In fact, it’s pretty much identical.

 

    * Most of us thought the sequence where Bart goes full frontal is hilarious, but there’s a few folks on the board who worry it might encourage pedophiles to attend the film. But between you and me: their money’s as good as anyone’s, right? I say leave it in. In fact, I have some sketches I did of Cherri and Terri naked if you’re looking to add any scenes to counterbalance Bart’s. No pressure, but it could really play for the pervert demographic.

 

    * We really think it’s best to stick with the show’s formula of “Bart crank calls Moe, Moe threatens to gruesomely murder him, but gets sidetracked or outsmarted before he can follow through.” The joke kind of loses its levity when Moe is able to track Bart down, keep him in an underground torture room for three weeks, and finally strangle him with his own intestines. And the scenes of Homer and Marge in tears at their son’s grave really didn’t do much for us either.

 

    * Again, try and maintain a sense of cartoonish disconnect when dealing with violent sequences like the Itchy and Scratchy short at the beginning. Pasting Itchy and Scratchy’s faces onto footage of US soldiers gunning down Vietnamese POW’s isn’t just lazy animation, it’s downright haunting.

 

    * Even if it is in a dream sequence, Milhouse probably shouldn’t be depicted penetrating Lisa from behind.

 

    * We’re pretty sure Maggie has only spoken once in the course of the series, so we were wondering what the thought process was behind having her curse like a sailor every time she appears onscreen.

 

    * The sequence where Homer is deployed in Iraq is timely, we admit, but couldn’t you do something about Lindsay Lohan or something instead?

 

    * Your character notes say that Homer is thirty-eight, and that he impregnated Marge right out of High School, yet his oldest son is only ten years old. We still want you to account for the missing decade, but honestly, we think you can come up with something better than the rather convoluted forced alien insemination storyboard sequence you sent over. Although we did like the S&M Kang and Kodos designs. Possible toy line?

 

    * We like most of the funny signs you’ve got in the backgrounds of shots. We were only concerned with the one in the Church of Springfield establishing shot that reads “Woman was God’s second mistake…Nietzsche.” We’ve already got the NOW broads on our nuts enough of the time; do we have to give them another reason to get on the rag?

 

    * We understand that Smither’s homosexuality has always been a running joke on the show, but we appreciated the subtlety and subdued nature with which it was handled in the past. Please, consider eliminating the Otto/Smithers/Moleman daisy chain sequence.

 

        * We notice that at the end of the movie, things seem pretty resolved. The kids have come to terms with Homer’s death due to a failed liver, Marge and Moe have worked through most of their major problems, and Bart’s drug problem is more or less on the wane. We’re worried you’ve painted yourself into a corner in terms of sequel potential. We don’t want The Simpsons to go the Harry Potter route and only get seven movies out of the franchise. We’re looking at more of a James Bond film dynasty here, with Homer voiced by various actors as time goes on. In light of that, and of course without sacrificing the integrity of the ending you have now, try and make sure everything ends in exactly the same state as it began. If it’ll help, we can probably get Nicole Richie to do a guest voice.

 

 

[Vemynal]

there is so much wrong with that I don't even know where to begin...

[Paityr]

I think we should have a contest on whose Simpsonized pic looks most like them. Based on what I know of what everyone looks like, I'm leaning towards Empy, Maj and especially Cads for the best look-a-like.

 

I think it was the legs that gave yours the extra something, Cads.

 

*nods*

 

MMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....legs...

 

*drools*

[Emperor]

lol... lets get some before and after pics going then.
