Again, I say you should contact the person who wrote his page at http://filmonic.com/who-would-you-cast-in-a-live-action-simpsons-movie , my selection of actors should please him, and my thought on how the movie would work should give him an idea, too. You guys should talk with each other.

By the way, I’d give a critique on the “Three Stoohes” cast list, but I don’t know where to find it. Could you tell me how to get there?

I will try if I can find it. Anyway you should consider my idea and try telling about it to the person at Filmonic who posted his thought on the idea.

You can find him at http://filmonic.com/who-would-you-cast-in-a-live-action-simpsons-movie

And you can tell him how I think making a live action Simpson could work.

Excellent choices mostly…really inventive…
The really spot-on ones are Burns, Grandpa, Krabapple, Flanders, Krusty, Carl, Snake, and Rabbi Krustofky. Lenny is a skinny guy with dark hair who we think resembles Jon Hamm. I guess the only other character though that Ferrell could play would be Kent Brockman but he\’s already been Anchorman. Giamatti guzzled wine very capably in Sideways so that\’s also a good choice. A great stunt casting would be GNR axeman Slash as Otto.

Castelleneta Fan, now you have to critique our Three Stooges cast as you have a real knack for this!

How about asking thesharkguys what they think of my choices? And also you should check Filmonic and you can see how many other suggestions for casting have been made besides this one.

My good man, Tim Curry can be the Sea Captain. He played one in Muppet Treasure Island, didn’t he? And Mel Brooks may be Jewish like the Rabbi character, but I chose Jackie Mason because he was the first to voice the animated character and naturally has that acccent. And the guy at Filmfonic considered Jones as Dr. Hibbert, probably because his voices sounded like it was based on Jones. And come on! Anybody can play characters like Apu. These people are actors. If they weren’t actors, I wouldn’t've chosen them. If I could figure out how to post these pictures I have of them, you could see the reselmblance.

Don’t see Tim Curry as the Sea Captain….or Tim Allen as principal S. Not pompous or self-important enough. Jones is 70. Dr Hibbert is a father of 3 who still works. Shaloub is not even Indian!! How the hell could an Arab play Apu?

What about Mel Brooks as the rabbi?

Russel Brand as Otto?

Ratzenberger has the Cheers/Boston/Quimby connection…

How ’bout Jack Black as the Comic Book guy?

Wait a minute forget Mona Simpson, I just realized she died two years ago in the episode “Mona Leaves-a”. I just of another character we should add, the Crazy Cat Lady. I know another veteran actress could play her. Hmmm, I’m thinking Susan Sarandon, this part would be easy for her.
