>>222521017>Simpsons movie>20 years after the first Simpsons movie >First Simpsons movie was already almost a decade after the Simpsons stopped being good
>>222521017The effort put into this promo image tells you exactly how terrible it will be
>>222521017This will come out and flop and become the subject of scrutiny in some low grade culture war battle until it's discovered that AI was heavily used in the production
>>222521017holy shit the posters for this are fucking pathetic, the worst being the number 2 shaped donut. Absolute lazy bastards
>>222521017Depends on what the budget is.$10m? It will do great.$50m? Starting to get iffy.More than that? Flop city.
>>222521017Bart Simpson actress is hinting at a retirement. I believe this movie is a stealth finale
>>222521017The show's still going. Somebody's watching it. They'll go see it.
>>222521243This is exactly what will happen. There will also be 100 youtube video essays comparing the first simpsons movie to this one and what made the first one so much better.
>>222521333>There will also be 100 youtube video essaysmore like 100,000 AI-generated youtube video essays
>>222521017Do young people even know what the Simpsons are
>>222521419This late in the game I don't think anyone could tell you who the audience even is for this. Don't they still broadcast only on Fox? Who the fuck is watching Fox?
>>222521461I'm 18 and this thread is the first time I'm hearing about it
>>222521419Yeah, it's the spiky head guy from the una vela meme.
>>222521199You mean the lack therof?
>>222521017Yes simpsons is irrelevant for like years now who watches the simpsons post covid
>>222521686>who watches the simpsons post covidSorry I meant *post 9/11
>>222521419they probably know it from homer let the barts out and fortnite
>>222521017what an unengaging, static pose. shameful.
>>222521017What plot could save this movie?>It's a Treehouse of Horror film. >Jaws >Jurassic Park>Joyride
>>222521017They should've just made another video game. It probably would've been cheaper and made way more money.
>>222521243I think Fox/Disney is hoping the movie bombs so they have an excuse to cancel the series. Bart’s VA also hinted she wanted to end the series at season 40.
>>222521909If they had balls it would be a 2 hour anti plot movie that makes an excuse to show everyone that's ever appeared in the Simpsons show. 2 hours of an aggressively banal week in the life of the Simpsons; Homer is going to work with nothing interesting happening, Marge is doing housework, Bart and Lisa are going to school with nothing going on, all the characters show up at some point to say hi to the Simpsons, and then it ends with "it's been years and we're all out of stories."
>>222521909they talked about doing a road trip movie and it apparently got pretty far along. Eventually some of the writers or execs or someone was like, so it doesn't take place in springfield or feature the supporting cast at all? And it got scrapped. If they regularly made a Simpsons movie every 10 years they could do totally different things. Now I don't know what general audiences would be upset with.
>>222521979Didnt all the VA sign away all their rights for the company to use their voices however they like with AI?
>>222521017It will probably make money, but we won't like it.
The fact that The Simpsons has been bad for 29 years is truly insane.
>>222522310genuinely who has been watching the simpsons these last few decades, it makes no sense how it keeps getting renewed
whats (you)r idea for a final episode, anon
>>222522356Nuclear power propaganda ran by LLM bots that A.I. gen Simpson characters and environments.
What corporate slop do you think will tie-in to this movie?>Krispy Kreme d'oh nut flavours>Duff Beer (non-alcoholic soft drink)>BurnsOs cereal
>>222521017tv shows shouldn't live longer than dogsit's not healthy
>>222522382They do a two-part murder mystery episode that gives the supporter characters lots of screen time.
>>222521017It wouldn't be hard to create a good Simpsons movie, even during a zombie eraThe problem is that the voice actors sound like zombies themselves
>>222521017I never liked the cartoon joke of impaling your foot , specially with blood involved, it unironically gives me the ICK. The fact that's it's the movie poster makes me hate it already.
>Labor Day weekendMay as well say fuck a theatrical release entirely at that point
>>222521017Literally who under 30 has ever watched this show?
>>222521017they should use AI to de-age the voices
>>222522721plenty of early 2000s kids watched the simpsons from what I recall, since a lot of people still watched TV up until the mid 2015sunder 20 doeee? yeah probably nobody
>>222522782>mid 2015slol idk why i wrote it like that, bit redundantmeant mid 2010s
>>222522356>>222521686>>222521461As people ask "who's watching it" I have to point out that it was once a show that got 30 million viewers every week and it is now a show that regularly dips below 1 million viewersi.e. 97% of the audience has fucked offThere is only one piece of economic sense there; it's one of the only long-running shows in history that saw a salary REDUCTION (shows typically just spiral up as they run, seeing stuff like all six Friends being shoveled a million bucks a week at the end)In 2011 every Simpsons cast member took a 30% pay cut in lieu of the show being shitcanned, the threat was apparently quite serious. And I guess inflation works against them because they haven't gotten a raise since.
>>222522975They should have shitcanned the show
Homar get shingles
>>222523041It really was the closest it ever came, Fox had a finger on the triggerIt would have been perfect since the actual series finale would have been Lisa Goes Gaga. What a note to end on.Yes, that was fifteen years ago
>>222522721i was born after 2000 and grew up with the simpsons. i watched the early seasons on vhs and dvd. the movie came out in 2007 as wellbut judging from the posts here maybe that was unusual and most kids watched other shit
>>222521017nobody cares. sneed
>>222521271If they make it a finale it might do very well, if the series continues as it is, it'll fail miserably.
>>222522975It's starting to get into Flintstones/Scooby Doo territory where it simply exists so it still exists.
>>222521243For me, I can't wait for this piece of shit to drop and retards start retroactively acting like the first movie was "better" when it was released squarely in the dark age of the show and felt like an extended dark age episode with limp wristed "satire" and light weight jokes told badly with no subtlety like in the golden age eps.
>>222523195The reaction when the movie came out was already that it was dogshit but was a moderate improvement from the dogshit airing on television at the same time
>>222523195>>222523245We've all seen the prequels be rehabilitated by retards, why not the Simpsons dark ages? Someone is watching this crap still, it makes money.
>>222521419Steamed Hams was a big meme a few years ago
>>222523084>It would have been perfect since the actual series finale would have been Lisa Goes Gaga. >What a note to end on.That episode was dogshit, and made worse when they previewed it and Matt Groening did the most phoned in interview about working with Gaga>Oh my God, we're working with LADY GAGA!Matt, you've been in the industry for over 20 years by then, you've had guest stars ranging from Barry White, to Mick Jagger, to Michael goddamn Jackson on your show. In no way is it believable you're in "awe" of a popstar who was more or less an industry plant before she made music.
>>222521017That's pretty graphic for a promotional image
>>222523158Scooby Doo is definitely the ultimate zombie franchise, although I'd say it was never a cultural phenomenon in the first place and aside from Mindy Kalig it also rarely actively pissed people offThe Flinstones is an interesting one - over the past thirty years, there's only been a handful of occasional cameos or specials. Pic related was essentially the end of the franchise as a continuous public presence, which is honestly fitting enough for how bizarre it is.Same goes for The Jetsons, by the way. It's still "iconic" but it went functionally extinct in the year 1990. Currently Jim Carrey is struggling to exhume it for another humiliation ritual, best of luck to him.
>>222521102Then why didn't the first one flop?
>>222521017The people who havent watched the simpsons in 20 years are going to be shocked by the geriatric voice acting I think.
>>222523325Exactly!Also, Lady Gaga teaches Lisa the value of being herself and standing up for what she believes in!
>>222521419There was an entire season of fortnite that was simpsons themed.
>>222523331The Jetsons is a great example because it finally wrapped after all of the main voice actors died
>>222523393>The Simpsons is finally as big as Tung Tung Sahur
>>222523309Way easier to rehabilitate flawed action, horror, or sci-fi than it is to rehab a bad comedy. The only ones I think of are Mallrats and Freddy Got Fingered, the former of which people agree is flawed but got way too beat up by critics, and the latter is because it was meant to be absolutely retarded.Neither of those you can apply to post 90s Simpsons, mainly because not only do you have a mediocre movie to rehab, but dozens, maybe hundreds of hours of TV to rewatch.>Someone is watching this crap still, it makes money.Usually as background noise, and these days almost entirely in public venues like bars, gyms, and restaurants. It's been at least 20 years since the show was appointment TV for residences.
>>222523331>Scooby Doo is definitely the ultimate zombie franchisejesus wept
>>222523371>teaches Lisa the value of being herself and standing up for what she believes in!More or less touched on that in the vegetarian episode that was actually funny and even had a Lisa/Homer bonding moment in the end. In other words, it had actual character writing and not rehashed ideas.
>>222523331>Pic related was essentially the end of the franchise as a continuous public presence, which is honestly fitting enough for how bizarre it is.The Flintstones was a smash hit with a 7x multiplier at the box office. It's frankly amazing they didn't try to make sequels or spinoff tv or other random shit.> The JetsonsI think the Jimmy version will just be an undignified fart, but like Flintstones shows it's possible to translate a dead franchise into a good movie. Jetsons could do a lot with the retrofuturism vs how shitty our current 'future' actually is. That's take some intelligence and risk taking rather than just IP necromancy though.
>>222523474holy shit that IP should be federally banned. The worst is the one made by that fucking jeet bitch from The Office. She is horrible.
>>222523490Rainier Wolfcastle standing in front of a brick wall.jpg but I can only attach one image to this post so I'm giving you this one instead
>>222523522>amazing they didn't try to make sequels
>>222523534Next year it becomes an anime!
>>222523560Yeah, there's that guy too. Point is the Gaga episode is pure rehashed slop.Sarcasm is hard to pull off here with infested it is with jeets, bots, and other turd worlders
>>222521243>until it's discovered that AI was heavily used in the productionHave you seen how bad their animation has been for years?That would be an improvement at this point.
>>222521017I hope so. I regret going to see the first one. I'll torrent this one just to see how bad it is.

>>222523816I really wonder how they aired that, did they not even get what he was saying?
S1-12 are the only watchable seasons. Sure, 1 is finding its feet, 9-12 aren't golden age, but its 13 onwards where it is doomed. That's the first seasons where there are more bad episodes than good/okay ones.
>>222521419Reruns stopped on open TV many many years ago in my country. It used to be a tradition to eat at 14:00 while watching The Simpsons. Nobody youger than 40 watches TV anymore. Doubt many youngsters use Disney+ either.
>>222523908>I really wonder how they aired that, did they not even get what he was saying?It may have been in that same season where that retard Banksy made that infamous couch gag where he depicted the Korean animators as slaves, and the gooks got pissed at him for it because they had working on the show for fifteen years and most of them made a decent living from it. A classic "left winger is unintentionally racist" moment.iirc they ironically still made it "under protest" in exchange for a bonus and telling the general public that Banksy is a dipshit who doesn't know a thing about how animation is made.
>>222523945behind the laughter is my official finale and even then seasons 10-11are pretty bad
>>222524025banksy is a dipshit period and he should have been arrested a long time ago for his "art", not because of its political message but because its bad and vandalism
>>222524039Can respect that, and they are, but I can watch them, nostalgia smooths over the bumps. 13 is just painful, flash simpsons/movie pure zombie
>>222524025The Disney+ stuff is kinoDid you know Lisa got to meet Billie Eilish?And Billie Eilish taught her the value of being herself and standing up for what she believes in!
>>222522433But Duff Beer already exists and it allegedly tastes like shit
>>222524084I feel like all of modern Simpsons problems can be summarized by saying it's written by people whose favorite Simpson is Lisa.
>>222524122Her VA only does that one voice so they have to keep giving her episodes so she earns her pay
Please, watch this.it is 15 seconds from an episode from 2025, with audio.Post your genuine reaction.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1786650309637443.mp4
>>222523346Because in the early 00s, most people agreed the Simpsons had slid in quality, but still had some funny moments and were still nostalgic about the 90s episodes. By now, most people don't give a shit about the Simpsons and most people agree it should've ended by now. It just isn't in the same place culturally as it once was.
HmmThe very first Simpsons episode to be fully digitally animated is the one where Frank Grimes Jr. tries to assassinate Homer to avenge his dad
>>222524260
>>222521017they should have done the first movie in 1997, second movie in 2008. it's too late now. nobody cares. all the voice actors sound like they're on the brink of death. you KNOW they're gonna do AI voices once the actors start croaking
>>222524084>Lisa meets Travis Scott>he teaches her the value of being herself and - oh no, she's been trampled to death
>>222524260you could spend an hour analyzing everything wrong in that scene
>>222524122Basically the same problem afflicting all of Hollywood writing, mutatis mutandis.
>>222523331Any Jetsons reboot would be a total spite project because the OG series had an entirely white cast with none of the females working. It stood for everything the left hates about mid 20th century pop culture.
>>222524260lmao holy fuck her voice is BEAT
>>222523587>Shaggy is noticeably anime-ed>Scooby just looks like ScoobyWhy
>>222524399I randomly caught the first episode of The Jetsons last year and the very first joke of the series is that Jane is shopping for the robot maid and she turns down a bunch of sexy ones, then she meets fat grumpy Rosie and declares her perfect and brings her home to George
>>222524260>unironically using the term incel in today's age

>>222524260>>222524505I'm asking myself "Would Homer really be that squeamish about porn"?He bought titty magazines in early seasons, right?
>>222524260I just killed myself
The later seasons of Simpsons have ruined the early seasons of Simpsons
>>222523346people who didn't watch remembered it from the 90s and went to see it, whilst those who followed the show saw that they were brining back old writers/runners so were willing to give it a chance. It's a solid 6/10, wasn't that impressed but there were some funny moments.
>>222524610only to conceal when he was buying fireworks
>>222521017>Will it flop?From my perspective, it already has
Not gonna Google it but wasn't the first movie an Under the Dome spoof? Will they be riffing on King again? I would unironically watch Simpsons: The Stand
>>222524260fooking hell m8 that's a rough Marge
>>222524728They did a hour long IT Episode that wasn't completely terrible a couple years ago. Not IT / Not IT Episode 2
>>222521017It will do modestly well in Asian countries and South America I reckon. Everywhere else it will flop badly....Is what I would say. They're way too keen to make this though. I can only assume that they MUST have data that indicates I'm wrong and there are silent majority who are desperate to spend money on the big screen to watch this. There's no way the execs would be so stupid as to demand this film to be made with basically a blank cheque just based off of feelings and gumption afterall. R-right?
>>222524728The Simpsons movie came out in 2007Stephen King wrote Under the Dome in 2009He joked that he believed it was an original idea until his daughter Naomi called him to tell him that he ripped off The Simpsons
>>222521461They broadcast on Fox, but are soon added to Disney+ which is where most of The Simpsons' legal viewership is now.Like how Rick and Morty mostly gets watched on HBO Max, not on the Adult Swim cable channel
>>222523474For me, it's Lego Scooby-Doo! Blowout Beach Bash
>>222523331>>222523522>the flintstones movieThe thing that amuses me the most is that they hired a borderline autistic superfan to be the creative supervisor of the set, props, and costumes. Kinda based?
>>222524788Was it the same data that told WB and MGM that there was a silent majority of people who would go out and support Supergirl and He-Man?They probably want to drum up nostalgia for the classic episodes on Disney+. OIr even nostalgia for early COVID where everyone had the same idea to binge the first eight seasons.
>>222524788I bet they are going to announce its the series finale a couple months before they release the film. That is there only hope of making money.
>>222524122>>222524137Rumour is that Nancy refuses to voice the character unless Lisa is written this way
will donald blumpf be in it?
>>222522433Unkrustable the Clown
>>222524811That is actually insane, wow. Well, kudos to the Simps for the original idea but seeing as how UtD features Big Jim aka the greatest small town villain of all time, I'm giving roses to the King take.
>>222524861Of course!>that middle bookoofthey're gonna have to reel that one back lol
>>222524861>will donald blumpf be in it?They unironically should do this to keep it thematically linked with the first movie, which was late to the party in mocking Bush, as by 2007 even a lot of republicans agreed the Iraq War was a waste of time and Bush was more or less a failed president.
>>222521017I see people posting family guy or American dad clips all the time on social media, I never see anyone posting simpsons, especially not simpsons clips from the last like 25 years.
>>222525059i see it but its only classic simpsons season 1-10 never anything beyond
>>222524260The same episode has Marge freaking out about Marge reading Manga (it's a 1980s style astroboy parody because of course it is), despite Marge being a millenial who would've gooned to Fruits Basket Yaoi on Deviantart.It's like they write her to act like Julie Kavner would act irl or smthng
Did they update Grandpa Simpson to Vietnam? Is he still somehow a WW2 vet?
>Hey remember beloved fan-favorite Schwarzenegger pastiche character Rainier Wolfcastle? Anyway, here's Harry Shearer voicing the role of literal Arnold Schwarzenegger.I just don't get it. Was it for focus test retards? Because it sure wasn't for Simpsons fans.
>>222525059Family Guy and American Dad often require no setup or context for their jokes. It’s pure absurdism. The Simpsons (and KotH while I’m here) doesn’t translate as well to shortform video.
>>222525144We get more holocaust survivors every year, so why not more WWII vets?
>>222525059American Dad is the only legacy adult animated sitcom written by people with functioning brains
How is this supposed to work with Marge sounding like a cancer patient now?
>>222524610They have an entire episode where him and Marge fuck in public a dozen different times in like S9 or 10.Modern Homer is just a puppet to whatever character is having a dilemma now instead of Homer coming around and realizing he needs to be the good guy.
>>222525191They'll keep using her until she's dead.
>>222525175Those goys served their purpose, let's leave most of that period of history in the past where it belongs.
>>222525191MARGE BECOMES A ROBOTHAVE NO FEARS WE'VE GOT STORIES FOR YEARS

>>222525264Bart get ipadbut unironically
>>222522975How is this show still going? Who is the audience for modern Simpsons? I saw a 2010s episode and it was fucking awful. Seasons 1 to 8 were pure gold.
>>222525321There are enough boomers who leave the TV on all day and night to generate ratings. That’s also why SNL is still on the air.
Nancy Cartwright (Bart VA) tries to get recognised in a coffee shophttps://youtu.be/BNHOLqfTLxA
>>222525321There are just some things left over from legacy TV that the networks won't budge on, Simpsons is one. Any random streamer can shit out a VOD and the view count will btfo of any episode of the Simpsons from the past 15 years. They just keep it around because it came with the building.
Marge never did become a robotBut Artie Ziff built a Marge Robot and then married it, does that count?
>>222525305I thought this show was supposed to be funny.

>>222525488This would go incredibly of the guy who voiced Master Shake did it
Yes. The Simpsons was already well past dead when the first movie came out; but it felt like some sort of culmination, maybe even the beginning of the end. This fucking thing has no reason to exist. There is literally no reason for anyone to be interested in this. They'd have to kill several major characters even to get noticed
>>222525488This is like that video of Mark Hamill walking around LA in a Darth Vader mask and nobody recognized him of cared because LA is 80% hispanic.
>>222521419yes although many of them have only seen the show through clips uploaded to tiktok

>>222525146>I just don't get it. Was it for focus test retards?Pretty much, I forget exactly when, but either it was a test screen of an early cut or Fox execs during pre-production thought normies wouldn't know who Wolfcastle was or that he was always the stand in parody for Arnold and other 80s action stars, and in a sitcom that was the most normie program for over a decade. You can tell how unconfident they are with him being in the movie when they show that very obvious ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER name placard front and center on his desk.

>>222521271It's already confirmed that they'll run it up to season 40.
>>222522975Did they really love the show that much or was the pay check so insane that 70 percent and no raises ever again was still a good deal?
>>222521017Is Simpsons the new Looney Tunes? Matt Groeining has been seen wearing a jacket with all the characters on it in the past.
>>222527854*Groening
>>222528269Notice that this thread went EXTRAORDINARILY well because we went 200 posts before you showed up, you insufferable fuckin' faggot
>>222526113Im old enough to remember being confused about why the Simpsons still had an old ass TV and VHS player in the early 2000's when everyone moved to more modern flat screen CRT's and had a DVD player (or PS2) Now Marge is whipping out the DVD player like it's some ancient technology. Just end this show man.
>>222528339>do not redeem posting cartoons on /tv/ bloody benchod bastard
>>222521017You guys are out of touch.Simpsons is still a giant name from cultural value alone. Yes, zoomers and alphas know what the simpsons is. Everyone does.>But nobody watches itBecause it's a broadcast tv show. The movie going to theaters is going to get a lot of people who normally wouldn't go through the 'hassle' of sitting and watching tv on cable.
>>222521243>some low grade culture war battleI love how it went from "social justice" and "white silence is violence" to "some culture war thing" the moment you started losing lel
>>222521017>finally make simpsons movie>first scene is a child weinerbravo jews bravo
Nothing more American than spelling the date in a retarded way.09.03.2027Can someone translate that shit?
>>222530020August 34th, 2027
>>222530020Some fag from a shit hole country can't read dates. So tiresome
>>222521017
>>222521017>Simpsons>2027
>>222524260Genuinely unrecognizable as Marge's voice. She should have quit years ago.
>>222526228That would use too much water.
>>222531073all of the main VAs are nothing but overpaid sellout fucks
>>222523346Novelty and nostalgia, first Simpsons' movie.
>>222524260What are their ratings like?
>>222523077From his new iPad
I hope so I've fucking hated this show since 1997. Even the 'good' seasons are fucking trash.
>>222521940A good Stick of Truth style game could be great.
>>222524260Ironic how overly expressive, off model, and rubbery the animation is, when that was something Groening tried to avoid and nearly got the show killed when the pilot had the same problems.
>>222528531>Simpsons is still a giant name from cultural value alone.Cultural value from when it was good 30 years. In the modern day, it's the worst example of something coasting on past glories.
>>222526011Just thinking about that scene and him trying to get out of saying he was at a bar is 100x funnier than anything in the last 20 years.
>>222523766Super nigger hell Simpsons era
i can't wait for 2027, capeshit and the sneedsons will bomb and die
>>222524260good lordshe sounds like she's actually dying
>>222524260Homer truly get ipad in the end
>>222523675Unironically Chris pratt
>>222521333Eventually these channels will start collectively funding the creation of bad sequels.
>>222521017Is the Simpsons still a thing? I thought it ended 2 decades ago.
>>222521461I think it is honestly just popular in the third world nowadays
>>222524260I prefer Shin-chan. Related because Neox (Spanish channel) used to air Shin-chan with the Simpsons, currently airing this ""show"" now.
>>222522975>In 2011 every Simpsons cast member took a 30% pay cut in lieu of the show being shitcanned, the threat was apparently quite serious.They get 300k per episode after the 'pay cut'. The episode numbers per season vary but let's keep it simple with 20. 6 000 000 per season. 15 seasons since 2011. = 90M per major cast member.Viewed another way, there's 6 major cast members, at 6M per season. =36M a season just for them (or 1.8, let's say 2M/episode). Now given the viewership of ~1 million we could compare this to a mediocre Youtube channel, having a 2M in production costs for just voice per episode and you start to get a sense of how absurd it looks. However, the real money maker for the Simpsons is not the show itself, but all the merchandise. Fortnite skin licensing probably paid for years of production costs alone.
>>222524260>Marge sounds worse than her mother in the S2 thanksgiving episode where she has laryngitisI'm not even surprised at the "me own son a fookin' incel" plotline because this is the same show that had Marge stand up and break the fourth wall for five minutes to tell the audience about Roland Blumpf saying mean things.>>222524137The funniest thing is, that's just Yeardley Smith's regular voice. She's barely even putting it on.
>>222523346People still thought that things might have a chance to be good back then.
>>222524025>infamous couch gag where he depicted the Korean animators as slavesHe literally stole that shit from Clerks Animated.
>>222524958>always liked the character and name>can't use it as part of a username any more because of this placeFuck you assholes
>>222531371I mean from their perspective most of them were no name actors who lucked their way into being the voice cast of a super popular show. That got them a huge paycheck back in the 90s and has given them regular, easy, and well paying voice work for the next 30 years beyond the point when the show should have ended.If you were getting paid half a million a year to dick around in a voice recording studio for a few weeks out of the year I think it would be hard to turn down the money. Besides they had time to get used to the mediocrity. Seasons 11 through 20 were a gradual decline into Zombie Simpsons and after a decade of getting paid to make a mediocre show it would be easy to convince yourself that getting paid millions of dollars for another 20 years of steady, easy work isn't that great of a sin. I think most people who work are ultimately doing things for money that they wouldn't want to do otherwise.
>>222524260i knew modern shitsons was bad but I never could have imagined it was this bad
>>222521184>>20 years after the first Simpsons moviewtfNOW I officially feel old
>>222526247Can't wait for Abe to be a Gulf War veteran. Skinner probably is one already.
>>222525810I'm pretty sure this came first, but I might be wrong.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNsZ1B01-Zo
>>222525810What was even the context of this supposed to be?
>>222534518Its so weird to me when Hollywood starts moralizing about Trump name calling when they've spent the past decade calling him a deranged orange rapist with tiny hands. The whole concept that politics is supposed to be respectful seems to all go one way against the other side for whoever is invoking it.
>>222523346Simpsons was formerly better
>>222528557>losinglmao. you might have gotten Trump into the white house again, but he is globally despised and the right has never been seen as more of a laughing stock after its recent attempts at picking a fight like over the Odyssey, which was a smash hit and cost chuds what little legitimacy they had left. the Trump presidency is just the last dying gasp of your "movement"
>>222524260its over
>>222533997>he made a parody shop of my shitty b8 comic from 2021I'm in awre of you
You think if this flops they'll consider sundowning the show?
>>222526247>Homer and Marge are 38>First avenger was released in 2012, 14 years ago>Make them 24Just give it 5-6 more years
>>222530020Nueve de marzo del dosmilveintisiete
>>222534246That's exactly what makes them overpaid sellout fucks
>>222521909just adapt Hit and Run.
>>222535466Would you turn down the money?
>>222535578not him, but i legitimately would have if i saw that what made me famous was becoming soulless. money isn't everything. ESPECIALLY if you already have millions.
>>222534170The difference is Clerks was trying to be funny. Banksy actually thought he made a STUNNING AND BRAVE STATEMENT ABOUT LE EBIL CARTOON INDUSTRY AND OPPRESSED POCS only for the yellows to take offense at the idea they were retarded peasants who needed to be into submission on how to properly make cartoons. The reality was that the simpsons had been outsourcing to Korea for like 20 years by then and some of the lifers and studio heads actually made a decent living from the show thanks to its success and longevity.All that sequence accomplished was confirming Banksy was yet another vapid faggot "activist" who doesn't know how things work.
>>222524991>Two Scoops for Me
if Homer sings Starlight with dancing Transformers in the background in the movie, it will break a billionif not, it will make 150M and we'll hear cope about how streaming deals put it in the black before it even premiered
>>222535605
>>222534499Skinner was 13-14 during the first Gulf War. Abe is old enough to be Vietnam Vet but he's younger than John Lennon would be.Burns is barely old enough to be a WWII vet (assuming he's still 104)
>>222524260normal motherly love reaction.
>>222534927People have been posting that baitu a lot since then (if it's not you personally keeping it up). It's always fun to make a bit of OC.
>>222535881>Skinner was 13-14 during the first Gulf War.So he'd already be an Afghan war vet? Lule. YOU WEREN'T THERE MAAAAAN
>>222523474Scooby-Doo blew up at such a time and in such a way where it'll seemingly just always exist (regardless of organic demand for it) because older people know of it and think of it as a popular thing, so it gets funded.I sometimes think about how if a lot of characters made this century had blown up four or five decades earlier, they'd be perma-immortal too.
>>222521017I would assume so but then oddessy and spiderman did amazingly against all odds so who the fuck knows
>>222523118They may as well have filmed it before anybody has a chance to die and then not actually release it until the series is over
>>222524260>>222525125People mainly focus on the "le incel" commentary here, but the dumber part of this is presenting completely normie general audiences anime like MHA and Attack on Titan as inevitable gateway drugs to hentai. IIRC the actual episode basically conflates modern anime, Astroboy type stuff from the '80s, hentai and even fucking kaiju media as all basically being the same thing. Might as well have thrown Nintendo games in while they were at it.I can't believe these racist writers hate Japan so much.
>>222524025>he depicted the Korean animators as slavesDoes Banksy think South Korea is a fucking third-world country?
Now that the thread's over, how the fuck was the thread so productive and civil? The schizos that shit up the place for the last decade have the day off?
>>222537044Some of the most civil talks I've ever had on /tv/ have just been people sharing their opinions on the Simpsons falling off, because it's both popularly agreed upon while also having enough different examples of stupid shit happening for people to share.Remember that time Sideshow Bob made a Harry Potter reference as containing "great plot twists" like how he'd reference opera and Shakespeare's works in earlier episodes?
>>222537083>Remember that time Sideshow Bob made a Harry Potter reference as containing "great plot twists" like how he'd reference opera and Shakespeare's works in earlier episodes?That episode where Lisa tried to forcefully convert Todd Flanders into Buddhism
>>222521268it needs 10 mil just for one VA
>>222534927>I'm in awre of youIs that a Bobby Baccala reference
>>22252146180 iq south americans absolutely love new simpsons. If you have to ask who the audience or market is for something the answer is always foreigners.
>>222523346It didn't flop because SimpsonsBut anybody that likes that shitty movie aren't humans, on god and on gang.
>>222524260>There are leftists on 4chan 24/7 telling me I should blame the right for age verification stuff>But in their own series they are saying a hint of titty will turn kids into murder rapistsYeah sure, the right totally aren't being made useful idiots taking all the heat for a left wing endevor
>>222536843Perhaps they have friends in the American comics scene, which Japan has been thoroughly raping for decades.
>>222534927>I-it's just bait!classic cope
>>222537044people can't even troll and argue that the simpsons isn't a dead husk of a show
>>222523766Sneedsons
>>222521184Simpsons donuts at 7/11 and spider pig was classic 4chan?
>>222524260Fucking hell, the retarded dialogue aside just listening to Marge made my throat sore.
>>222524260The dialogue is pure reddit cringe, Marge now sounds like her own mother and their movements look all jerky and weird because the animators are now talentless hacks who can only do digitalAt this point they may as well outsource to AI, it's shit and soulless already but at least it'll save time
>>222521017>gore of flag stick going through homers footyou know stuff like that really does not fit Simpson outside of Treehouse of Horror.It is really off putting and bad taste
>>222521199The picture isnt even in the spirit of the show honestly.
>>222524260what the le fuck
>>222537044>the simpsons is so culturally irrelevant even the schizos and trolls don't bother with it anymore
>>222521909They go anti-Simpsons Movie 1 and make this for the fans, meaning they DO acknowledge people remember Hank Scorpio and base it around him doing something like initially planned. Considering meme culture now is mainstream compared to 2007, and clips from seasons 1-12 tend to be the most popular as short-form clips on Tiktok/IG/whatever, people might actually remember one-shots like him. This will never happen, but it'd be the only way to put old fans asses in seats again>>222523331>Pic related was essentially the end of the franchise as a continuous public presencePebbles and Flintstones vitamins are the easiest Flintstones-based money-printers for Warner currently, neither have shrink issues at my store, and Pebbles of all kinds especially are the one cereal we never have overstock issues with. I guess you can argue they're just soulless wallpaper at this point, but even if it's not the show/movies, they've been branded into the back your head due to your breakfast routine as a kid. I doubt any kid today's going out of there way to watch OG Flintstones, but they definitely know who Fred and Barney areMore importantly: vidrel has spawned thousands of remixes and memeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF-xdiL7Nr0
>>222521017gotta be the swan song of the series, somehow fullfills contracts or some shit, no way it can be an attempt at making money
>>22252147242 and also first time hearing about it
>>222523331Jim's gonna die before the Jetsons shit gets off the ground. Guarantee. You know, steroids bloat the face and all for a reason, it's not just bad plastic surgery. What makes a man use steroids? What starts with a c? Who's living on borrowed time?
Jim Carrey is a very sick man, and by that I mean he's probably dying, but when will he die for all the misery he's caused others? When will he actually die and if not just be a Wikipedia hoax? When will he actually dose the pills that will kill him so he can be taken out of this world and stop being cancerous, abusive, psychotic AIDS? Come on man, just kill yourself already
>>222521909>It's a Treehouse of Horror film.This would be the only way I'd have any interest, since Treehouse means anything-goes since it's not canon. Give me some good what-if fucked up scenarios.
>>222532696He gets typecasted over and over though. John Goodman was as fantastic a supporting actor as a lead throughout his career.>>222523331I need to rewatch both of those movies again, been awhile.
>>222534551Nothing. Probably the most relevant part is that "the squad" was circulating in usage at the time to describe what boomers refused to acknowledge were those resentful shitskin race communists.
>>222524260Easily the worst Simpsons footage I have ever seen, by far. I stopped watching new content around 2009. Seen the Gaga bit, one or two other clips. Nothing prepared me just for how shit this is.
