OT: Homer Simpson is a Filmwaster
« on: September 04, 2012, 02:21:56 PM »
I saw this the other day on TV but couldn't find the entire show on youtube... so you'll have to settle for a strange translation filmed from the tube...

homer paparazzi (los brothers del humor)

The entire show was dedicated to Homer making it as a paparazzi :)
Just imagine that...


Edit:
The show's title is "Homerazzi".
Here's a link to the full episode. Plenty of Filmwasting (and just plain wasting) in there.

That's only in a single episode correct? Bender has been using the same film camera for many seasons. :)

at first I thought you were referring to the Jazz Jellies, of which I have a pink one...

I have one of the cameras like Bender too....  :)

Actually, it produces surprisingly good images. Looking at them, you wouldn't think they were made with something that looks like a big blob of Jello!

Using it, I found the plastic cover a bit too rigid. It makes the camera hard to use.

But back to the Simpsons/Futurama part of the thread, I find it funny that both Bender and Homer use film cameras. And it got me wondering about something: since both series are from Matt Groening, would it be that he has a special love affair with the world of classic emulsion photography?
