Let’s say The Simpsons’ writers and producers panic, or are lazy, and don’t have any material completed for the new Simpsons Movie. Thanks to modern editing techniques, we can use existing footage to complete the film. In fact, you don’t even need to do any editing. Just program the DVDs in the right order. Seemless, huh? For this you will need: _Call of the Simpsons_ (Season One) _Kamp Krusty_ (Season Four) _Selma’s Choice_ (Season Four) _Bart on the Road_. (Season Seven) _Some Enchanted Evening_ (Season One) _War of the Simpsons_ (Season Two) _Homer’s Night Out_ (Season One) _Secrets of a Successful Marriage_ (Season Five) _Homer Badman_. (Season Six) _Homer’s Odyssey_ (Season One) _Deep Space Homer_ (Season Five) _Homer’s Triple Bypass_ (Season Four) _Homer vs. The Eighteenth Amendment_ (Season Eight) _Trash of the Titans_ (Season Nine) Movie Version #1 The family buys an RV and goes off on a camping trip ([7G09](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/7G09.html)). Bart and Lisa ditch Homer and Marge and go to Kamp Krusty ([8F24](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/8F24.html)). Once Kamp Krusty turns into a nightmare, they hitch a ride back to Springfield. They talk their Aunt Selma into taking them to Duff Gardens ([9F11](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F11.html)). Bart gets detained by the Duff Gardens security, escapes, steals a car, and drives Millhouse, Martin, and Nelson on a cross country road trip ([3F17](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/3F17.html)). Movie Version #2 Homer and Marge, going out to a romantic restaurant, leave the kids with a babysitter who turns out to be the Babysitter Bandit ([7G01](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/7G01.html)). Marge gets into an argument with Homer after Homer gets drunk and turns into a womanizer ([7F20](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/7F20.html)). Homer, still drunk, dances with a belly dancer at the Rusty Barnacle ([7G10](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/7G10.html)). Marge kicks Homer out of the house. Homer sleeps outside, goes crazy, and eventually seeks forgiveness from Marge ([1F20](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/1F20.html)). After a misunderstood incident, the town thinks Homer is a misogynist and a mob intends to kill him ([2F06](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/2F06.html)). Movie Version #3 Homer gets fired from the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and goes out on a crusade for safety ([7G03](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/7G03.html)). Homer becomes an astronaut ([1F13](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/1F13.html)). Homer has a heart attack ([9F09](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F09.html)). Homer goes into bootlegging ([4F15](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/4F15)) and racketeering ([5F09](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/5F09)). ---

This is a hilarious idea. It reminds me of the old Warner Bros. TV specials and movies which were old Looney Tunes strung together with a bit of new animation to make the plot make sense. Since the producers said they originally planned _Kamp Krusty_ to be a movie, let’s use that for a base… _The Simpsons Present A Krusty Movie: The Rise, Then Fall, Then Rise Again Of The Klown_ 8F24, _Kamp Krusty_, Season Four 2F12 _Homie The Clown_, Season Six 3F12, _Bart The Fink_, Season Seven 1F11, _Bart Gets Famous_, Season Five 9F19, _Krusty Gets Kancelled_, Season Four Bart and Lisa visit Kamp Krusty ([8F24](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/8F24.html)). While the kids are away at summer camp, Homer, in an unusual coincidence, ends up as Springfield’s official Krusty impersonator after enrolling in Klown Kollege ([2F12](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/2F12.html)). Krusty invests his cash from the Kollege betting against the Harlem Globetrotters, leaving him nearly bankrupt. After the horrible experience at Kamp Krusty, Bart ends up looking for Krusty’s autograph after he ends up getting a checking account, which ends up to him accidentially uncovering Krusty’s tax evasion([3F12](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/3F12.html)). After Bart convinces Krusty to return from his reclusion after being caught by the IRS, Krusty returns the favor by giving Bart a job as his gofer, which accidentially leads to Bart becoming the famous “I Didn’t Do It Boy” ([1F11](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/1F11.html)). Despite Bart’s success, a newcomer named Gabbo steals Krusty’s thunder, leaving Krusty high and dry again. Bart comes to the rescue once more, bringing Krusty’s celebrity friends to the rescue to help Krusty get back on top in a feel-good ending ([9F19](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F19.html)). ---

You two are more in tune to the Simpsons than I could possibly ever be. I bow to your…your…whatever it is that you have and I don’t. ---

Well, the [first review](http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117934252.html?categoryid=31&cs=1) is out and the news is…promising: > [@](#): > > Put simply, if somebody had to make a “Simpsons” movie, this is pretty much what it should be – clever, irreverent, satirical and outfitted with a larger-than-22-minutes plot, capable (just barely) of sustaining a narrative roughly four times the length of a standard episode. > > On its face, this is no small accomplishment. The conundrum of expanding a TV program (particularly of the animated variety) to feature size and scope has always posed a tricky proposition…and the credited team of 11 writers (all of them at one time producers on the show) have incorporated plenty of knowing flourishes the audience will surely appreciate > > …As for magnifying the series without losing its deeply ingrained charms, the producers have mostly passed that test as well, proving their 18-year-old child was ready to go out and face the big bad (theatrical) world.
