List of movies parodied on The Simpsons
Simpsonscruft - the potential for this list to expand is very large, given the sheer number a) of Simpsons episodes, of which I would warrant every single one in some way is a parody of some film and (b) the sheer density of cultural reference and parodies actually present in each particular episode. Any information can be part of the voluminous number of pages which are dedicated to each and every Simpsons episode and the associated pages. Listcruft. Jammo (SM247) 06:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. Such a list makes finding such parodies a lot easier. Or would you prefer surfing every single episode article? I would however include rigid rules about what to include and what not. The body in the film "Stand By Me" wasn't found in the sewers but near a train track. So either it was a parody of the book, or not related at all. That one should be removed. - Mgm|(talk) 09:49, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Point taken, but it is going to be ridiculously long, and indeed still expanding. It is also arguably going to involve a lot of OR for some of the more subtle ones, and arguably POV based on people's interpretations. Jammo (SM247) 09:51, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Those that are not abundantly clear or rely on interpretation should not get on that list. - Mgm|(talk) 07:42, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete There are already detailed articles on Simpsons episodes which no doubt mention movie parodies.. This is Simpsoncruft which duplicates existing material. doktorb | words 21:12, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. Possibly encyclopedic, but too long for an article, if properly maintained. &mdash; Arthur Rubin |  (talk) 01:23, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless someone looks through all the Simpsons episodes and adds all the parodies. User:Clay4president

 * Keep being parodied in the Simpsons is a benchmark of social notability, in a way. Carlossuarez46 22:28, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
