I dont get it
>remember loving movie parodies>watch old treehouse of horrors episodes>enjoy them greatly
>>215196592>Always so much easier in Mexico......
The best ones were probably like II - XV, the last four or five Treehouse of Horror's were really hot and miss per segment.

>remember loving treehouse of horror episodes>rewatch them today>most of them are just movie parodies>still love them
this is digusting
>>215196953Stupid, cheap weather stripping!
It's shocking because you can see the visual decline of the series if you watch them in succession. 1-5 are very visually diverse, going for a cinematic approach so that the episodes feel "sepcial". After that, they start to standardize the show's look, and it's more visually bland. By the later seasons they solidified this completely sterile visually bland look that started in god damn Family Guy and spread to the rest of western animation because of how cheap and fast it is to produce. Everyone just standing around in wide screen flapping their gums. Backgrounds are highly detailed, but you're never going to show them from another angle.
>>215196592Parody is one of the most common forms of comedy

>>215196953Very satanic and gnostic
>>215196953Why does Marge, Lisa, Bart and Maggie all have flesh under their hair?
>>215197374>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3Mm8wDH9Fk [Embed]Still from one of the better segments. The joke relied on the Simpson's doing CG animation. ''For me, best segments are: "The Monkey's Paw""Dial 'Z' for Zombies""The Devil and Homer Simpson""Terror at 5½ Feet""Attack of the 50-Foot Eyesores""The HΩmega Man""Hell Toupée""Starship Poopers""Life's a Glitch, Then You Die""House of Whacks""Reaper Madness"After that it all becomes a blur.
>>215196592it gets way worse later when they start parodying shit like 007 and mr. and mrs. smith
>>215196592What movies were the monkey's paw and your pic from?
>>215197992https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Monkey's_Paw
>>215196592Okay, congrats on learning something that everyone knew 30 years ago.
>>215196745give it another year or two
>>215196592The Simpsons was largely movie parodies. That's what made the show appealing in the first place.
>>215197310Many of latter ones aren't even from horror movies, one is from Mr and Mrs Smith
Whats the best complete Treehouse of Horror? Not one segment, but entire episode? All three segments, the introduction, and if was present, wrap around story?
>>215197687>it gets way worse later when they start parodying shit like 007https://youtu.be/fyZ32nF9Hxs?list=PL-KqzH2V3-ZhE-d6KT10BJoIvzl0rKjLAAt the 600th episode they were just like... "holy fuck, we're still on the air?"
>>215198184First one. Actually takes place in the treehouse, has wonky 2nd season charm, James Earl Jones in every segment, creepy music, less obvious parodies, Bart as The Raven. Personal favorite.
>>215198063I wasnt around at that time
>>215196726Me neither
>>215196734he just like me...for real
my favourite is night of the dolphin
>>215196953>Showing this to kids is okay but showing a nipple would get the Simpsons in trouble
>>215196953>How is this appropriate for children but maggie spread eagled in bondage isn't?
>>215196592>rewatch season 8 because everyone says it's the best simpsons season ever>mary poppins parody episode>x-files parody episode>lassie parody episode>rodney dangerfield parody/homage episodeI know the simpsons has always parodied TV and movies and that some of these were pretty funny, but these were probably the first time i felt it was too on the nose.
>principal and the pauper literally explains the message during the final scene>filtered plebs STILL didn't get it
>>215196726quiet you
>>215196953https://youtu.be/_nK4VnBjD24?si=SOGQtopx5MbHX-2k
>>215196592>Marathon treehouse of horrors episodes>Can pinpoint the exact season the series turned to shit
OH, YOU COULDN'T DESTROY EVERY POLITICIAN
>>215196953yeah the upscaling looks terrible
>>215196592Adulthood is realizing the Simpsons wasn't that clever of a show.
>Ooh! Erotic cakes!
>>215199766Check'd.Adulthood is realizing that Married With Children was pure unadulterated kino.
>>215199427> everyone says it's the best simpsons season everWho says this? Season 8 was the beginning of shit Simpsons for me. Season 7 had a couple weak episodes (Homer cannonball LOL) but Season 8 was like that the whole way through. And the animation got noticeably blander around then. Seasons 4,5, or 6 are the best picks
>>215199694Tell us what season it went to shit.Also, which is your favorite Treehouse?
>>215199835ehhhhh No Peg
>>215199857>*Flushes toilet*
>>215196592Don't rewatch Futurama - every single episode is a movie parody.It's so lazy.
>>215199427Season 8 is awful anon. Who have you been listening to?
>>215199766It's amazing how many jokes they stole from Zucker Bros movies.
>>215198856>shows two nipples>no one got in troublewhy do you think it's okay to come on the internet and be factually incorrect?
>>215200090They've show Lisa butt naked before too. Mouthwatering.
treehouse of horror 3 is the best
>>215197655>No "King Homer"pleb.
>>215196726they were just being le random
>>215198184The first is great, though I alwsys thought the Raven was weak (as good as Jones is). V is great but it was the one to drop the wrap.around format which I miss.So its III or IV. I think I'll give it to IV even though III has a better flow.
>>215200879>>No "King Homer"That's a good addition too.
>>215202537Also, got to add Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl.
>>215202586The Lucy Lawless part gave me my first boner
>>215196592What was the episode where Homer went behind the bookcase in reference to?
>>215202651Did you see that movie Tron?
>>215202651Twilight Zone: Little Girl Lost
>>215202663Really? It's just Tron? That's fucking LAME.
>>215202690Not only was I just quoting the episode but Tron is fucking awesomeSaw the 1982 one last night and it was unreal kino
The hallucingenic chili pepper episode has NEVER been surpassed.
>>215202730Based, that's my all time favourite episode
This is indeed a disturbing universe.
>>215202755Mah niggah
>>215196592But they were always largely parodies based on movies and books/novellas
>>215196726According to my Simpsons episode guide book which I received in 1997 for my birthday, it's a reference to a certain Brazilian author.
>>215202852I am familiar with the works of Carlos Castenada
>>215202730Homer3 is a close second in my book.
Lots of them were parodies of the Twilight Zone>"Hungry are the Damned">"The Monkey's Paw">"The Bart Zone">"Clown without Pity">"Terror at 5 1/2 Feet" >"Homer 3 (cubed)">The Genesis TubThe Twilight Zone parodies stop at season 7, with the exception "Stop the World, I want to Goof Off" (season 14) and "I've Grown a Costume on Your Face" (season 16)
>>215202852>Carlos Castaneda >Brazilian lmao
>>215202912>Born in Cajamarca, PeruSame thing isn't it?
>>215202852Incorrect, "the first non-Brazilian time traveler" refers Alberto Santos-Dumont, a Brazilian guy who claimed to have made the first manned flight before The Wright Brothers.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto_Santos-Dumont
>>215202852That's bullshitThat's how it was in "le based" 1990s. Complete nonsense would be published and there was no way to immediately push back on it, so it would become accepted as fact.
>>215202929No, it's not. Those are two different nations.
>>215200169I like his operator grip on the barrel
>>215202912That's where the time travel comes in. He changed his own birthplace.
I've been watching Simpsons clips lately and the show is sooooooooo Jewish. I actually can't stand it.
>>215199427The Springfield Files is one of my favorites and I'll die on that hill.
>>215202989Wait until you watch Seinfeld, the supposed most intelligent comedy ever madeThere's a whole episode where Kramer says that circumcision is horrible, and if they really wanted it then the baby should grow up and make that decision, and the audience laughs and he's treated like an idiot
>>215200090>Produce a cartoon. Get the R rating. Show a nipple. Show two.
>>215202992>i seem to have left something in my car...
>>215198856They showed Bart's penis in the Simpsons movie.
>>215203001I've watched a lot of Seinfeld. I don't like it either. Jews are just a weird gypsy race that shouldn't be in White countries.
>>215203013>I don't think he's coming back
>>215203039That was just a Kilroy reference
>>215202989>>215203054O B S E S S E D
>>215199766>>215199835Too many brown people post here.
>>215196726It took me until the rio olympics to get it. Its a joke about brazilians taking credit for human achievements that they didnt do first
>>215203007heh
>>215202938Good thing hes talking about time travel and not flight you dumb fuck.learn to read
>>215196726wasn't it supposed to be "I'm the first non-fictional person"that's funnier
>>215196592most of the early ones were twilight zone/outer limits episode parodies
I stopped watching Simpsons 20 years ago. Maybe seen the odd new episode.Are there any good Halloween episodes beyond Season 11?
>>2151994278 - 10 is the beginning era of zombie simpsons. Seasons 2 - 7 are kino.
>>215197454"A good character design is one that can be identified by its silhouette"
>>215196592
>>215199766"Adulthood is realizing" is the lowest form of judgement
>>215204574Hey that post really sucked!
>>215202730>>215202755Really? It's alright, but it seemed a bit too out there for me. I guess it's notable for being a "serious" episode that didn't happen in the first couple seasons. The first half was good, but second half kind of lost me.
The thing that sucks about Disney's ownership of The Simpsons is that it's no longer syndicated.So no more flipping to a rando TV channel and watching a Treehouse of Horror's marathon in October. Where do I watch the bulk of these episodes online without having to pay for a subscription?
>>215204712Yeah someone like (You) wouldn't enjoy it
>>215204712>t.brainlet
Anyone got a simpsons torrent that also has the audio commentaries?
>>215196592The Simpsons is an overrated show because its writing has zero originality in it, it's all parodies of its contemporaries.
>>215202730What surprises me the most about that episode is it was the only "Marge and Homer marital issues" episode I fully enjoyed. Even more, this one and the X-files episodes are on my top 10 favorite episodes.
>>215202852>"Where the Elites Meet to Have Their Spirits Broken"I don't get it
>>215202959let's be honest heresouth america is just one singular country for all intents and purposes
>>215204900No, it's not. You are ignorant.
>>215205023u r guay
>>215199427>8The best season is 6, though 8 is very good
>>215205023nah, i'm correct and this fact upsets you
>>215205023ohnonono this dumb brown sudaca thinks anyone cares about his favela shithole
>>215205123>>215205141Many Americans refer to over half of their own nation as "flyover country" yet this churro-enjoyer is getting offended that nobody cares about Africa, Mexico and other places I don't give a crap about.
>>215205043In Rand Mcnally, they wear hats on their feet, and hamburgers eat people
>>215205206Does hot snow fall up?
>>215199427Season 8 is the last one before the quality really drops
