My Top Simpsons Future Episodes

Over the two decade long run that the Simpsons has enjoyed, it seems that the episodes that are amongst the most popular are the yearly Halloween episodes, and I can't really find any fault in that. With the vaguely realistic rules that surround the regular episodes relaxed a bit, they are able to indulge in some jokes and character development that they wouldn't be able to do otherwise (for better or worse).

But for me, I've always had a soft spot for the episodes that portray how the future might be for the Simpsons Universe, as it has the same narrative freedom as the Treehouse of Horrors but generally is more emotionally invested in what's going on. Plus these episode fill the gap left when Futurama was taken off the air for the umpteenth time.

Anyways, here are the episodes based on the Simpsons' futures that I've liked the most, as of the current season (23).

Disney's Fantasia 2000 - Firebird Suite

I always said that animation was an artform, and here is an example of that being true. From Fantasia 2000, Igor Stravinsky's Firebird Suite, the 1919 version.

Movies and TV Shows I Saw Over the X-Mas Break

Over the Christmas Break, when I was travelling to and from my OS' family in Cincinnati, I ended up catching up on a lot of movies that otherwise I probably wouldn't have seen for one reason or another. And for the most part... I was actually pretty suprised. Even the ones that weren't great were actually still in the least fairly good.

Saw a good mix, and here are some brief reviews of what I ended up seeing.

EspanolBot's Opinionated Bests and Worst in Comics of 2011

Due to moving house, I unfortunately have been unable to make any Casstoons to cover this, so here is a prose semi-list of things I thought were good and bad about comics (mainly DC) that happened in the year 2011.

EspanolBot's New Year Message

Well, I'm back from America, and what are my hopes for the new year?

Well I hope that this is a year with less earthquakes, tidalwaves and meltdowns. And hope that any revolutions to replace dictatorial regimes are actually successful, rather than installing someone worse.

I hope that there slightly less terrible people being around, following the deaths of Bin Laden, Ghaddafi and Kim Jong-Il, and again the hope that no one rises to fill their places.

Here's to a sane American general election, and the hope that Obama remains in the job and isn't replaced by a crazy person who doesn't know that Europe isn't a country or something.

Here's to people realising that humans are actually kind of awesome, to good entertainment being released, and the hope that people can make the world a little bit better in their own small ways, by not being dicks for no reason.

Here's to a happy new year, I hope you all have a good one.
