I am glad someone else has time for this because I sure as shit don’t.

However, if I may nerd out, it’s not 100% correct. For example, the third image down shows Marge with a serrated knife and it’s alongside the scene from The Shining where Wendy (Shelly Duvall) grabs a knife to protect herself from Jack, her insanse husband (Jack Nicholson).

Pushes glasses up on nose.

The Simpsons’ scene is from Treehouse of Horror 1 “Bad Dream House.” Marge is using that knife to make a sandwich, not defend herself. You can’t just pick an arbitrary scene of a character holding a knife and say it references a movie. Sheesh!

Still, it’s pretty great. It also shows just how cinematically literate the Simpsons’ writers and animators were.

66 Simpsons’ Scenes Alongside the Movies they Reference.

UPDATE: Apparently these images originated on a Spanish site. You can view these and MANY more Simspon Movie References here.

Well done!
