Simpsons Live Action Style

August 27th, 2008

I have no idea why this was done and what it is for, I imagine some British advertising for The Simpsons. No matter what it is very clever:

    It’s kind of bizarre to watch, especially the Mother and they absolutely nail the end bit when Bart lands on the car etc.

    If you look closely you’ll see Bart is about 21 in that shot (stunt guy i assume hehe) he just gets much taller, and much more shape

    ha ha… nicely done.

    I also like the related video, Star Trek vs The Simpsons. Funny how well the two themes mix.

    I’ve considered that a work of absolute genius since I saw it. It was perfectly done.

    In a slightly related note, when the Simpsons movie came out in the States, there was a nation-wide contest to find THE Springfield. The Springfield of Vermont (my state) won. Mostly because there actually is a nearby nuclear power plant. That and they found a local who was fat and balding to do the entry video…

    Oh yeah I read about that competition, didn’t know where they wound up choosing. Do you think the fat balding guy helped them across the line because I know where they can find some of those :)

    I thought it was a promo for a new simpsons series on Sky 1 I think. It is rather clever.
