Star Wars References in 'The Simpsons'

Use this thread to discuss the different references of Star Wars in The Simpsons!

well...discuss!

 

Simpsons has so many, look at my sig, you seem to want to start all of these .

 

^^^^
check out JEDY's sig

"Use the for...." "The force?" "No, the fork. Use the fork " - Mark Hamil and Homer
"We have to go back, I forgot my lightsaber. Oh wait , here it is " Mark Hamil and Homer
"Ah ha , not even Xena is strong enough for a double-edged lightsaber."

 

There's an official thread for TV SW references, but i've checked back 13 pages and I can't find it.
So much for my superiority complex





{||||| ?||} -----------------------------

 

That episode when Mark Hamil came was awesome, I love it because it was such a sweet idea. When he enters the stage, he just pushes stuff around with his lightsaber .

I also love when they parodied GL, and he was some short dude creating "Cosmic Wars" .Jib-Jab cereal.

 

And the parodied GL rode away on a TaunTaun into the sunset.

 

George Lucas + Simpsons = Randal Curtis

 

And the comic book guy has a mint addition darth maul lightsaber, never been opened, then he suddenly opens it to attack bart and Lisa. Also when the new Cosmic Wars comes out (Episode I), the comic book guy gets out of the movie and says,"Worst cosmic wars ever, I'm still gonna see it three more times today".

 

Jim-Jam Bonks cereal. It's just Alpha Bits with extra J's.

 

Just like in my sig, he was going to attack Xena.

I love that line, "worst cosmic wars ever, I am only gonna see it 3 more times....today."

 

I remember a quote from Bart, something like - "War is not cool, except for the Star Wars Trilogy!"

 

One recent repeat showed Comic Book Guy in bed with a Jar-Jar doll.

Comic Book Guy: Oh Jar-Jar, everybody hates you but me.

 

I think the bart quote was: As you've seen tonight, war is not good nor fun. With the following exceptions: The American Revolution, World War Two and the Star Wars Trilogy.

Then theres the Lenod Nemoy[sp] episode and Quimby says: And can I say May the Force Be With You!

Theres Darth Vader in the Sky saying 'Luke, I am your father' when Lisa is talking to bleeding gums murphy.

Theres The time the woman offers a box full of stuff to comic book guy including: The alterative ending to ESB where Chewie is Lukes father and Princess Leia anit breast jiggle tape.

Plus Many Many More!

 

What about the one where Homer and Marge are on a date and they come out from seeing TESB.

Homer walks past a load of ppl waiting to see it and says "I can't belive Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's father".

Then the queueing guys get pretty p'ed

 

Ellbobin - That's the one!

 

How about when Lenny and Carl are having a lightsaber battle with carbon rods at the power plant?

Lenny: I say "Phantom Menace" sucked more!
Carl: I say "Attack of the Clones" sucked more!

 

The Cosmic Wars Episode was brilliant if only for the skit on the opening crawl of The Phantom Menace!!
It went like this!

Cosmic Wars - The Gathering Shadow

It is a time of uncertainty. The empire's ambiguous tariff statutes mandate close reexamination of galactic import quotas. Interim Princess Agoomba has co-chaired a subcommittee to draft amendments to existing trade policies. Meanwhile, regulatory agencies are being heavily lobbied by a consortium of mercantile interest groups and their suppliers to streamline loading restrictions for class C cargo vessels. The shipping..."

It was brillaint!

 

For all your SW Simpsons references!

IMO, the Simpsons will spoof anything/everything if it's popular. I find their parodies of Star Wars to be tasteless and very low. If Matt Groening asks at sessions where they write new Simpsons episodes, "Which pop culture icon should we spoof in this episode?" I bet that the writers instantly blurt out: "Star Wars!" and "Disney!".

 

Skinner: And Ralph Wiggum's entry.... a box of Star Wars collectables. Chewie, Yoda all my favorites are here. Well, it's the best thing at this science fair. First Prize!

Ralph: I bent my wookie.

Or something like that

 

It was a diorama contest.

Skinner: This is just a box of Star Wars collectibles...and still in their original packaging. He's got Luke and Obi-Wan...and my favorite Chewie! What time is it?

Miss Hoover: I think it's lunch time.

Skinner: We have a winner!

Ralph: What's a diorama?

Later in the episode, Ralph is walking with his box of toys with Lisa, he trips and exclaims "I bent my Wookiee."

 

Oh, and don't forget the "Treehouse of Horror" episode where Yoda performs the wedding ceremony between a gypsy and a leprechaun.

"Pronounce you man and wife, I now do".

And the Halloween episode a year later, where Bart and Millhouse are playing around with this magic stopwatch to play pranks on the town. Everyone finds out who's doing it, and a lynch mob sets out after them. In the middle of the mob, Comic Book Guy is seen waving a green-bladed lightsaber.

And, of course, there's the Darth Vader theme that is often used to herald Mister Burns.

 

today's repeat had R2 playing a guitar in one of Bart's daydreams.
