Okay, some friends and I were talking about various film ideas and we came up with this idea for a game. Fox has decided to greenlight a _Simpsons_ movie (not really, just for the purposes of this game) and because Rupert Murdock is such a tightwad he’s decided to cut a lot of corners on the deal. The first is the director, he’s hired a total unknown (that’s you) and the second is that rather than pay the writers to create a script, they’re simply going to do a shot for shot remake of some other movie with the Simpsons characters as the actors. No changes to the dialoge, plot, etc. whatsoever. Fox has also decreed that if the film does well, they’ll simply make another Simpsons movie the same way. Given that, the rules of the game are thus:
1. No Simpson character can play multiple roles unless the actor who’s role they’re assuming did so in the original film.
2. Any Simpson character is fair game, except for guest stars who played themselves in the episode(s) in which they appeared.
3. Any character voiced by an actor who is no longer living may not be used.
4. Male characters can’t portray female actors unless it was done so in the original film (the reverse is also true).
5. If the film spawned a sequel, the same Simpson characters can only appear in the sequel if their counterpart did so as well. (i.e. you can’t do all 20-odd James Bond films with Marge as the Bond girl in each one).
6. You don’t have to cast every role or Simpson character to play.
Scoring: 5 points for every film idea, 1 point for every Simpson character you use, 5 bonus points for using more than ten Simpsons characters. I’ll give an example film to get the ball rolling (feel free to use it, for yourself, but for it to count, you’ll have to do the prequel and cast more of the characters):
_The Empire Strikes Back_
Luke – Bart
Leia – Lisa
Han – Milhouse
Obi Wan – Grandpa Simpson
Yoda – Moe
Vader – Smithers
Emperor – Burns
Chewie – Homer
Total points: 13
