Post subject:  The Simpsons - New opening title!

I just had a look for a thread for The Simpsons and couldn't find one! Unless I'm looking in the wrong place... so lock this if there is already one please, because I find it hard to believe that there isn't already a Simpsons topic.

I just heard about it on a random gossip website. It has a new opening sequence;

FEAR THE CHANGE!

It's not massively different, just a little tweaked.

And also, The Simpsons rules.

So whaddaya think? Do you like change?

I personally really like it :edgy:

It's a nice change, I guess.

...I dunno, that's all I have to say. It's nice.

I like the changes, although I think that it goes on for a bit longer than I liked.

The TV falling off at the end was brilliant though.

Lets just hope the quality of the actual episodes is as good as this.

I liked the changes (ex. who Bart skates past) but diskliked the additions (ex. sawing off Jebediah Springfield's head). That pretty much sums up my feelings.

The Simpsons in HD is kind of pointless, but whatever, I can't really complain about the new opening title.

Author:  Louise [ Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:25 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: The Simpsons - New opening title!

I'm hoping that the actual title is only the first minute, and that the last minute is the usual couch intro thingy LOL

The Simpsons isn't as good as it used to be but it's still fun X^)

This will definitely be cut down for episodes that run the standard length. We'll probably only see the full version on Sundays or during syndication for episodes that are running short, and they couldn't think of anything to add to it (i.e. odd paused voice over for a building and such).

The long bit was just the couch gag for that episode. It's usually only a few seconds :godot:

THe rest is as long as it was before, I think.

I like it, overall. Some nice changes, more characters get spotlight (CRAZY CAT LADY FTW) and I like the touch at the end. After all that, the tv falls off the wall...XD

I love this new intro. It's so "Simpsons". I mean, it's full of references and witty lil' jokes, like (prepare for the show-off of a Simpsons fan):

The crow sounding every time the Nuclear Plant is shown (00:06)
-"A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man" (00:10)
-"Krusty - Now Doing Funerals" (00:12)
-Homer's photo in the wall as an astronaut (00:16)
-"Absolut Krusty" (00:27)
-"Donut Fancy" (00:28)
-Mr. Sparkle Cleaning Powder (00:28)
-"Tomacco Juice" (00:28)
-Bloody Gums Murphy's Picture (00:35)
-Jerry 'N' Terry playing with a GBA-like console (00:36)
-Otto eating the Plutonium bar (Almost potentially historic) (00:47)
-Sideshow Bob, Helen Lovejoy, Apu & the Eight (forgot the word), Moe, Comic Book Guy, Disco Stu, Cat Crazy Old Lady (forgot the name to, I know it in Spanish, damn), Rich Texas Tycoon (?), Chief Wiggum, Hans Moleman (you know when)

·The ones you have to pause for:
-Ralph playing with Frank "Grimey" Grimes' grave's sand (01:00)
-That guy in the black pajamas walking all weird (01:00)
-Spider Pig (01:00)
-Kang and Kodos (01:00)
-Three Eyed Fish (01:00)
-"El Barto" (01:00)
-Moar GBA twins (01:00)
-Mafia burying a body (01:00)
-The School Bus having a loose tire with the barfing kid inside (01:00)
-God (01:00)
-Satan (01:00)

Wow, those were a lot.

Anyway, I think this is just to promote their enter to the world of HDTVwhich is worth every cent every cent every cent, and nothing else. FOX can't replace the Simpsons' Old TV with an HDTV TV. It's pure evil! EVIL!

Hell no. He was put in an asyllum after faking his own death with the help of his parents, his wife and his son, next to all of these.

@DeMatador Gameboy Advance? in my Simpsons? "its Moar likely than you think!".

@ Wannabe

I think the "GBA" visual gag will be a recurrent in the series from now on. Dunno why, just... think :\

I can't wait 'til Season 20 premiers here. It's usually the 3rd/4th Sunday of May, so that would be on the 24th? Meh, I'll just wait.

WATE. MAY 24. GYAKUTEN KENJI IN MAY 28.

Finally fate smiles to me TvT

EDIT: BTW, it's my Simpsons, ya bitch. ma'am.

It was alright, I suppose. A bit too crowded near the end, though I suppose that's more for the fanservice than anything, so it's not a big deal. The TV falling off at the end is a nice touch, too.


I'm sure I'll get used to it by the second or third new episode, just like everyone else probably will.

wow, a new opening :maya:
So will this be for HD only or both??? Just wondering :S
Also you know the TV falling off at the end does that mean the Simpsons' got a new TV? Because thir old one wasn't attched to the wal, was it?

Nice. :phoenix: I've been a long time Simpsons watcher and fan and its noce to see a change. Althought I thought the couch gag was a bit too long. :yuusaku:

@ DeMatador - I love your reply LOL so much stuff I missed!

When I was 14 I was so obsessed with the Simpsons it wasn't even funny (the obsession I mean). I think I still have a wad of the comics!!!!!!!

And I have a Bart doll with a burnt nose and permanent moustache I drew on with a pen thinking it would wash off.

And I had the Homer bag :edgy:

I'm pretty much with Orca on in this case. I don't mind the crowded part too much, I just wish they would have slowed it down a bit so we can actually see who is who.

I think it was kinda point to make it HD but a new intro has been long overdo. Most shows usually have sort of updated intro after a few seasons or so. I'm just glad they kept must of basic elements like Bart Skateboarding and Homer almost getting run over.

Thanks, I always look for referencey details in The Simpsons. Why? Because they always insert them. A LOT of them.

Now they removed the "almost" and replaced the "run over" with "hit, almost killed".

I have a book somewhere on the Simpsons. It's from the beginning of it up until 1997 and has details about what each episode is paying homage to. It was really good reading it and going "oooh so that's what it was about" X^D

Author:  DeMatador [ Thu Feb 19, 2009 10:51 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: The Simpsons - New opening title!

Those books are hard to find here, and, as if it weren't enough, horribly translated.

Hmm... E-books, maybe? I'll see...tomorrow.

Post subject:  Re: The Simpsons - New opening title!

I think it was about 50p from a charity shop hahaha

Some of the pages are ruined though coz I used to read it in the bath LOL

I think tomorrow I might try and dig it out and I think I'll read some of the comics :edgy:
