The Simpson
The Simpsons are such a mainstream staple of our lives these days, that i have even managed to squeeze Simpsons quotes into academic essays. Check it out here
but in the spirit of Onlines and I bitching about the current state of the Australian Film Industry, here is a quote from the Simpsons that could easily happen in a funding office in the AFC or even Film Vic
One month later, at the 20th Century Fox Film Studios, Ron Howard
pitches a movie to a film executive, who sits at his desk.Ron: [emotionally] And it grows, to a powerful, emotional
climax when the father has to choose which one of his
children will live … and which one … will die.Executive: Pass.
[Ron lets out a sigh]
What else you got?Ron: Well, well, there is this one thing. It’s about a
killer robot driving instructor that travels back in
time for some reason.Executive: I’m listening.
Ron: Okay, okay, well, you see … this robot, he’s got a
heartbreaking decision to make about whether his best
friend lives … or dies.Executive: Eh.
Ron: His best friend’s a talking pie!
Executive: Sold! Howard, you’ve done it again!
[he hands Ron two large bags of money; Ron holds them up
and smiles, as the closing line from the “Happy Days”
See thats what happens when you let the monkeys run the zoo. They end up hurting people
see?
