Talk:The Simpsons Movie

message: Here are two more movie references:
* The scene were Homer uses Marriot's doorman's-Uniform to pretend to be a general is a reference to Der Hauptmann von Köpenick, especially the 1956 version --> Der Hauptmann von Köpenick (1956 film)
* The scene were Homer and Bart are driving through a dry channel on a motorbike immediately before they start to drive up the dome is a reference to Terminator 2: Judgment Day (The Terminator and John Connor ride through a dry channel).
Maybe you can use this in the article. --134.34.5.104 (talk) 22:51, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cultural references 

message: I know on Wikipedia we use hidden text for a lot of things, but I happened to be browsing the article, something I haven't done in a while, and I noticed a bit of hidden text with a source with it.  Is there a specific reason for this?  This is is at the end of the "Cultural references" section and is as follows:

replies: text: I think I bracketed it out (although I can't be sure) because it sort of didn't really belong anywhere. It's not a cultural reference because it's a reference to the film from elsewhere. It was certainly true and I thought it might be worth including somewhere at some point but it didn't fit in then, and it still doesn't really go anywhere else. Gran2 21:15, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Johnny The Homicidal Maniac Reference 

message: Will you please believe me on this thing? It is NOT because of the fact that the film is animated that I want it to be considered "children's". THESE are the reasons:
* The film is based on The Simpsons.
* Many young adults who are now in their 20s and 30s fondly remember watching The Simpsons as children.
* The film's plot may be based on climatic change, but climatic change, religion and politics are things that can be tolerated by preteens (10-12).
* Preteens are considered to be children, right?
* Maybe the film is rated PG-13, but films do not HAVE to be G-rated just to be called "family films". There are many family-friendly films that carry the PG-13 rating.
* Maybe most of the film's jokes may appeal more to older teens and adults, but there are also some sight gags that can make children laugh.
