It really is. And George is the first one to admit it. I respect that about him.

I found the Simpsons episode online!

The Simpsons: Apocalypse Cow - AOL Video

I couldn't view it because it won't play in Canada

But hopefully it will work for you. The AWE gag is pretty close to the beginning of the episode (within the first 3 to 5 minutes).

Because The Simpsons, shoveled crap and AWE DVDs pooped out!

It's perfect!

Quote:

Lizzie was a PIRATE and for Will, she had to give up the life she so obviously loved to wait around on land to see him once every ten years. If he had really loved her, he would have released her from that obligation. He was far more selfish than Jack, IMHO. Will was only worried about what he'd get out of the deal. He didn't seem to care that Lizzie's life pretty much ended that day too...that he had locked her right back up in that cage she'd been trying to escape her whole life. If Will had truly loved her, he would have put her needs before his own. Yet, he did not which makes his love more of a selfish love than a giving love. I'm not saying JAck was perfect, but he was perfect for Lizzie. He was willing to give up immortality to make Lizzie happy. He certainly didn't do it for Will. Jack was willing to make huge sacrifices for her, but Will wasn't. IMHO, that makes Jack the better man ad the better man for Elizabeth.

Well said.

Oh man. That was too good.

Buttermilk_Moon · 04-29-2008, 08:49 AM

Jack was definitely the better man for Elizabeth. She grew into his woman through the trilogy.

Which makes it totally ludicrous that Disney actually stuck her with Will in the end, but I was really ecpecting no different. I was really hoping that Lizzie would choose to be alone for a while since I didn't think Disney would actually have her end up with Jack. What does Disney have against strong female characters who don't have to have a man beside them to be happy?

Even my brother's fiance, who is a major Disney freak (she owns a Cinderella toaster), hated that Lizzie ended up with Will. Even Disney-philes, hated the Will/Elizabeth pairing. Disney made a HUGE boo-boo with that one.

That Simpsons was freaking AWESOME!!!!

Oh crap I can't stop laughing.

That needs to go with our vids on the front post

All the non-shippers I went with the AWE thought the ending was ridiculous. It wasn't just Sparrabethers. It was all people with good sense

Analise's Pieces · 04-29-2008, 11:31 PM

To be perfectly honest, most of the non-shippers I know didn't give a damn about the romance of the series. In fact, they found it all to be too distracting. But I can tell you this. I have yet to meet a person who liked how AWE ended romantically. What people liked about the disgusting wedding? Barbossa performing the ceremony. Thats it.

And then everyone else I know? Sparrabethers. That's right.

And these are people that I became friends with first and much much later asked them about who they shipped. All coincidence.

tanith75 · 04-30-2008, 08:40 AM

I don't know any other POTC shippers except you guys

Or maybe I do, but I just don't ask. I'm afraid if someone agreed with me I'd start going off on a rant about shipping and then I would scare the person to death

It's better if people don't know

tanith75 · 05-01-2008, 07:07 PM

So I'm going to have a Johnny film fest tonight I think

I'm gonna start with From Hell and then do Secret Window and then I'll be so terrified I won't be able to sleep so then I can watch Finding Neverland and get super depressed

What?! No Edward Scissorhands...the best movie EVER! And no Sweeny Todd, Benny and Joon, Ed Wood, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, or Sleepy Hollow...all great Johnny movies

tanith75 · 05-01-2008, 08:03 PM

I actually am not a huge fan of Edward Scissorhands

Don't throw tomatoes please. But I will say Johnny is so sweetly fabulous in it.

I don't care for the movie because I can't stand Winona Ryder. She drives me up a freaking wall. She's like nails on a chalkboard for me
