Wes Anderson, James L. Brooks, and Luke Wilson went to the Academy Museum yesterday to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the film Bottle Rocket. After the Q&A, they were planning to go home. However, the elevator had other plans for them.
According to TMZ, the seven people spent about an hour trapped in the elevator until they were rescued by LAFD Station 61.
After they were set free, Anderson asked one of the firefighters what caused the elevator to stop. He told the filmmaker that he believes it was because they put too much weight in the lift. To which Brooks, the comedic legend, did not miss a beat and said, It was probably me.
And with that, I would be surprised if we get an episode with The Simpsons stuck in an elevator.
Harry Shearer has been voicing some of The Simpsons’ most well-known characters since the beginning. But has he watched the show that multiple generations have grown up watching?
Recently, the man behind the voices of Mr. Burns, Smithers, Ned Flanders, Reverend Lovejoy, Principal Skinner, and Kent Brockman sat down with The i Paper to talk about his musical comedy Here Comes J. Edgar Hoover. However, you can’t interview the legend without asking about The Simpsons, so that is what Shaun Curran did.
Curran wanted to know if the actor thought the long-running animated comedy peaked in the ’90s. Shearer told him, “I don’t know. I haven’t seen it.”
Can you imagine being part of something for almost 40 years, and never seeing it? Maybe he should take some time to do that. This way he can understand why millions and millions of people have seen all of the over 800 episodes.
Hank Azaria did a tour singing Bruce Springsteen covers as The Boss. If you closed your eyes, you couldn’t tell the difference. But we didn’t really have a comparison because they were not in the same room.
What if they were in the same room? That is what we found out when The Simpsons’ star was in the audience of one of Bruce’s shows, and he sang along with the legend and the crowd.
If you closed your eyes now, could you tell who is the OG and who is the voiceover artist?
We grew up watching The Simpsons, but we never got to play with them at home. However, now we can.
Fisher-Price shrank our favorite animated family and turned them into a Little People set.
Homer, Marge, who is holding Maggie, Bart, and Lisa, are 2.5 inches tall and look like they do on the show.
Plus, the box shows them standing in their living room. So you can record your own couch gag whenever you want. You know you have always wanted to do that.
The limited edition set is available now at Amazon.
