She'll probably say something that'll get Bart Strangled by Homer.

And, once they get caught, Bart would exclaim his famous, "Ay caramba!"

Oh yeah...to anyone of my generation, this is a very familiar movie quote. Even Robin Williams had fun with it from time to time.

Thanks! I've had this one on my mind for quite some time. You ought to join in the fun - all you need is a favorite movie quote and just wrap a Simpsons pic around it.

That was truly one of the greatist Simpson episodes ever.

Three words can describe my voice idea for Maggie: James Earl Jones.

::laughs:: Maybe here it's Bogart. Actually, for another of my projects, someone asked me who I would get to do her voice, and my answer was Emma Thompson.

I've always like the idea of her speaking in an omninous baritone voice, maybe it's because of watching to much Treehouse of Horror.

That was just such a classic Simpson moment, and the baritone voice captured the surreal nature of it. I have an unpublished Simpson/Futurama mash-up story where Maggie talks a bunch; the Emma Thompson voice would fit in better there.

Another cute "talking Maggie" pic. The only thing missing from Maggie that would give her little Captain Queeg speech more relevance is a pair of steel ball bearings for her to roll in her little hand. Still, I'm happy she used her speaking ability to bust Bart and Lisa. Well done.

Thanks! I struggled with that, almost giving her a red rubber ball to play around with.

Well, I suppose her pacifier will have to do in place of the ball bearings, n'yuk, n'yuk, n'yuk!

I don't think Barney Greenwald (Jose Ferrer) would touch Maggie's case with a 10' barge pole. And if he did, he'd probably get disbarred.

I still love Greenwald's performance at the end; it's one of those great performances in Hollywood history.

So did I. I particularly liked how he showed what a scheming coward Fred MacMurray's character was in addition to proving Queeg's insanity.

Last night at work I went from watching clips of that to watching a special on the life of Bogart - his son actually has his voice, and some of the looks of Bacall.

Really? Very interesting that Bogart's son sounds just like his daddy. It's a pity that Bogart and Bacall didn't have a daughter in addition to a son; I'm sure she would've inherited the bulk of her mother's looks. Even in old age, Lauren Bacall looked good.

They did actually; they had two children, a son and a daughter.
You're GD right Bacall looked good; she was hot looking in jeans before it was cool to be in jeans.

You and I are definitely on the same page when it comes to Lauren Bacall. Bogie was sure lucky to have her. As for my not knowing she and Bogart had a daughter. . .pardon my backfire. I'm sure the Bogart's daughter is as good looking as her mom.

They were showing clips from "Key Largo" last night - I have a very neat memory behind that. The last time I saw that flick was in a really nice hotel room in the Chicago loop.

I'm happy you enjoyed a classic Bogart movie in a comfortable accommodation. I checked out some photos of Leslie Bogart as an adult, and she's not bad looking. She does have a little of her mother's looks.

I love how a movie can conjure an image or a memory like that; the last movie that our entire family watched together in a theater was "The Sting."

I saw "The Sting" when I was in the Army. I'm happy that you had your whole family together when you saw it. Yes, the really great films, the classic films manage to endure. I just wish more young people would watch these kinds of movies in order to get an idea, at least, of what really good movies were instead of this load of horse doody that passes for movies nowadays.

We saw the Sting in Phoenix, where we were living at the time. It has even more meaning for me, as parts of it were supposed to take place in Joliet - I've been there.
I don't decry modern films too much, but I do hate this "Shake and Bake" mentality were they take some big name actors and throw them together with some big budget effects to make a hit, like in "Independence Day." If it weren't for the two main actors, that film would have gone down like a lead balloon.

Personally, I avoid the majority of today's films from "Hollyweird." People are raving about the latest "Star Wars" film, "The Force Awakens," but I won't be seeing it. To me, the "Star Wars" films are just cinematic eye candy. What really frosts me is how George Lucas, after selling the rights to LucasFilms to Disney for an astounding fortune has the gall to then call Disney "white slavers" for their part in handling this latest "Star Wars" movie. That ungrateful, malignant dwarf! Somebody needs to plant a steel-toed boot right in Lucas' groin! However, that would be a wasted effort since guys like him are generally devoid of testicular endowment.

To me most of that stuff, the Star Wars films, Avatar, are mainly just visual thrill rides. Sure I enjoy them. I often fantasize what my Alternate Leela stories might be like with that kind of special effect wizardry. But then there's real Hollywood film making as an art. You can't confuse the two.

The films Hollywood made in the past were both artistic and entertaining. The stuff Hollywood puts out now, with very few exceptions, is just cinematic vomit. And believe me, I never confuse the two. I know the difference between art and junk.
