“Simpsons” Scenes and their Reference Movies [Updated]

Update: Some quick notes:

  • I didn’t compile or make these images; I found ’em, thought they were neat and posted them for everyone to see.
  • You can find more images like this at Actualidad Simpson.
  • Yes, they’re stills and not scenes. Time was short when I posted the images and I used the wrong word. Anyone seriously incovenienced by that is eligible for a full refund.
  • Time was so short, that I posted a duplicate set of stills. There are only 66 in the set.
  • Time being short, I also didn’t post movie names. Feel free to identify them in the comments!

Here’s something for you film buffs who are also Simpsons buffs: 66 stills from various episodes of The Simpsons, each one beside the still from the movie scene to which they refer, courtesy of my friend Miss Fipi Lele:











Update: I’ve posted more Simpsons homages:

  • Stumbler. Excellent list here. I hope to see more of these in the future. Seriously, it is important for people to see how influenced the animators for this series actually are. Seriously, great idea! Thank you.

  • what about bart trying to steal homer's penny jar => opening scene of raiders of the lost ark

    bart hurts his leg, spends rest of summer in his bedroom looking through a telescope, suspects flanders kills his wife => hitchcock's rear window

    willie looking for santa's little helper in the air ducts as skinner watches on a radar monitor => alien

    hehe, there are so many....

  • Don't forget when Marge beats up I-forget-who just as Sonny beats the hell out of Carlo in The Godfather.

    And then there's Bart reaching for the muffin just as Little Alex reached for the chest of that girl in "A Clockwork Orange."

  • I liked that.

    What is the name of the movie that corresponds to the simpson's clips with the grandpa simpson and the old lady taking medicine?

    Anybody know?

  • Best obscure reference... the tagline on the banner for "Duff Days" was "A lost weekend for families", referencing the movie The Lost Weekend about a recovering alcoholic who goes on a weekend drinking binge.
