CHAPTER 5 CONCLUSION and SUGGESTION As People Knows , the Simpsons Movie Is a Television Show That Is Always Served a Story From CHAPTER 5 CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION As people knows , The Simpsons Movie is a television show that is always served a story from the issues that is happening in the life. Then the issues will be summarized into a humorous that contained a message and will be understood by many people easily. In general, this film is a critique for every people to their environment around them. For example, that there are still many people who are littering. Especially in the lake. Not only a small garbage, but also for waste disposal, and still many people who want to wash on the lake. Therefore, The Simpsons presents something that is also experienced by many people, but still have criticisms of certain things. In this chapter, the writer will make conclusions from the analysis of The Simpsons movie that using ecocriticism theory. After that, there are some suggestions for other research. 4.1. Conclusion From the whole story is that The Simpsons Movie is a depiction of the problems that are faced by the United States which are caused by environmental problems and the system of government that does not make sense. Some scen shows about the bad habit of people, and other scene shows about the effect of their bad habit. Environmental problem that is experienced by the people in Springfield is when they see the Greenday’s barge drowned because of the impurity that is contained in the lake. Can be seen that the moment is not important for Springfield people’s life, so they act to not care about what happen and still littering in the lake. They also do not want to be taught. Because, people always ignore Lisa Simpson when she wants to warning the people in Springfield about the pollution in lake Springfield. Although in the end they can be changed to be better, but Homer Simpson survives with his bad habit. He throws the leavings of his pig into the lake that has been cleaned by the people in Springfield, and the result is a pollution is that more 57 58 polluted than ever before. In this case, Homer is seen as the head of the family who are very irresponsible. The fatal mistake that Homer did has been used by the government as their personal gain. Rather than provide a good solution for Springfield and its people, they have instead to provide solutions which are not very significant for them, those are covered Springfield and restrict their lives by a large dome. After that, the government also decided to blow up Springfield and make the region as a new tourist spot that is as new Grand Canyon. In this case, government has a plan to take benefits from the disaster in Springfield. Beside in Springfield, there is also an environmental problem in Alaska. The bad habit of people in Alaska are they like to spend money and have fun with their money. Moreover, Alaska gives $1,000 for every resident. The purpose of the money is to make people in Alaska will not thinking about the environment. Because in fact, Alaska is used by the oil companies that can destroy that city. Most of all cases in The Simpsons Movie, can be seen that government also takes part. Not only in Springfield, like Russ Cargill take a benefit from the dome that covered Springfield, for electricity, and wants to make Springfield to be new Grand Canyon. The part of government also can be seen in Alaska part. Government will give money to every resident to allow the oil industries destroy their place. All of this parts shows that the government not only does not care about the environment to take many benefits from it, but also negligent in handle the bad situation about environment. From all cases, can be seen that human habits can affect the environment around them. The bad habit itself can be the culture of human life. Because of that, the theory of culture and nature takes an important part in this research. 4.2. Suggestions Beside the conclusions, the writer also gives suggestions to make the research paper complete: • It is recommended for further research on this movie. Because, as has been known by the public that a television show or movie provides many messages 59 that are useful for many people. This is because the television show or movie is a tool as a reflection of the many people’s real life. • From what the writer analyzed in this research, it is good for everyone to be aware of the importance of protecting the environment. In real life, there are so many people still keep on their bad habit. So, people must realize that there are still many people who feel that the environment around them is not too important to note. Therefore, from this analysis, the writer is expected that each person is able to change their mindset to be more responsible to their environment. • From the research, people also must learn that the government also takes the role in the part of environmental issues. Because of that, every person must think carefully before they act. Which is means, do not do something just because someone who has power ask people to do something. People must think first to do it. Will it be a positive or negative in the future. .

    CONTEMPORARY ANIMATION: THE SIMPSONS TO SOUTH PARK-FILM 4165 (4 Credits) SPRING 2015 Tuesdays 6:00 P.M.-10:00 P.M. Social Work 134 Instructor: Steven Pecchia-Bekkum Office Phone: 801-935-9143 E-Mail: [email protected] Office Hours: M-W 3:00 P.M.-5:00 P.M. (FMAB 107C) Course Description: Since it first appeared as a series of short animations on the Tracy Ullman Show (1987), The Simpsons has served as a running commentary on the lives and attitudes of the American people. Its subject matter has touched upon the fabric of American society regarding politics, religion, ethnic identity, disability, sexuality and gender-based issues. Also, this innovative program has delved into the realm of the personal; issues of family, employment, addiction, and death are familiar material found in the program’s narrative. Additionally, The Simpsons has spawned a series of animated programs (South Park, Futurama, Family Guy, Rick and Morty etc.) that have also been instrumental in this reflective look on the world in which we live. The abstraction of animation provides a safe emotional distance from these difficult topics and affords these programs a venue to reflect the true nature of modern American society. Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to provide the intellectual basis for a deeper understanding of The Simpsons, South Park, Futurama, Family Guy, and Rick and Morty within the context of the culture that nurtured these animations. The student will, upon successful completion of this course: (1) recognize cultural references within these animations. (2) correlate narratives to the issues about society that are raised.

  • The Simpsons WORKSHEET A
    Inside Out The Simpsons WORKSHEET A First shown on television in 1989, the animated sitcom The Simpsons quickly became a huge success. The first series attracted an average of more than 13 million viewers per episode in the United States, and it wasn’t long before it started gaining fans in many other countries. In its 18 year history it has won countless prizes, as well as being named best ever television series by Time magazine. So what do people find so funny about the dysfunctional Simpson family and the other cartoon characters who inhabit the imaginary American town of Springfield? One possible answer is that the show doesn’t just poke fun at American society and culture, but also at universal aspects of the human condition. It also balances ‘low’ and ‘high’ humour, for example by combining amusing visual jokes with clever references to social and political issues, music, science, television and history. The show’s principal characters are, of course, the members of the Simpson family. The father, Homer, is widely seen as one of the greatest comic characters in cartoon history. Although lazy, clumsy, inconsiderate and basically quite stupid, he still manages to be likeable, partly because in his own unusual way he is devoted to his wife and children. He works, rather inappropriately, as a safety inspector at the Springfield nuclear power station. His catchphrase, ‘D’oh!’, used on the many occasions when he makes a mistake, became so popular that in 2002 it entered the Oxford English Dictionary. It is fortunate that his long-suffering wife, Marge, possesses a tolerant personality in addition to her eye-catching blue hair.

  • Homer Economicus: Using the Simpsons to Teach Economics
    Homer Economicus: Using The Simpsons to Teach Economics Joshua Hall* West Virginia University Getting students to understand the economic way of thinking might be the most difficult aspect of a teaching economist=s job. The counterintuitive nature of economics often makes it difficult to get the average student to think Alike an economist.@ To this end, the need to keep students engaged and interested is essential when teaching economic principles and interdisciplinary approaches to engaging students are becoming increasingly common. For example, Leet and Houser (2003) build an entire principles class around classic films and documentaries while Watts (1999) discusses how literary passages can be used to teach a typical undergraduate course more effectively. I further extend this interdisciplinary approach to economic education by providing examples from the long-running animated television show The Simpsons that can be used to stimulate student discussion and engagement in an introductory course in microeconomics. Using The Simpsons in the classroom The bulk of this paper describes scenes from The Simpsons that illustrate basic economic concepts. While the examples are pretty straightforward, the difficulty in using The Simpsons lies in deciding: where to place the examples into the lecture and the best way to present the scene to the students. _____________________________ * The author gratefully acknowledges the financial support of The Buckeye Institute. One difficult feature of using any popular culture in the classroom, even a show that has been on the air for fifteen seasons and 300-plus episodes, is that students do not all have the same frame of reference, even in the most homogenous of classrooms.

  • The Id, the Ego and the Superego of the Simpsons
    Hugvísindasvið The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson January 2013 University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson Kt.: 090285-2119 Supervisor: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir January 2013 Abstract The purpose of this essay is to explore three main characters from the popular television series The Simpsons in regards to Sigmund Freud‟s theories in psychoanalytical analysis. This exploration is done because of great interest by the author and the lack of psychoanalytical analysis found connected to The Simpsons television show. The main aim is to show that these three characters, Homer Simpson, Marge Simpson and Ned Flanders, represent Freud‟s three parts of the psyche, the id, the ego and the superego, respectively. Other Freudian terms and ideas are also discussed. Those include: the reality principle, the pleasure principle, anxiety, repression and aggression. For this analysis English translations of Sigmund Freud‟s original texts and other written sources, including psychology textbooks, and a selection of The Simpsons episodes, are used. The character study is split into three chapters, one for each character. The first chapter, which is about Homer Simpson and his controlling id, his oral character, the Oedipus complex and his relationship with his parents, is the longest due to the subchapter on the relationship between him and Marge, the id and the ego. The second chapter is on Marge Simpson, her phobia, anxiety, aggression and repression. In the third and last chapter, Ned Flanders and his superego is studied, mainly through the religious aspect of the character.

  • The Simpsons and Futurama
    Chapter 24 Popular Culture in Teaching, Scholarship, and Outreach: The Simpsons and Futurama Sarah J. Greenwald Abstract Subject to thoughtful analysis of the benefits and challenges, popular culture can be an ideal source of fun ways to connect students and the general public to mathematics. My colleague Andrew Nestler and I created, class-tested, and widely shared activities related to the Twentieth Century Fox television show The Simpsons. The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) provides us with an analytic framework to develop, improve, and share our activities. We designed the activities to introduce or review important mathematical concepts and engage students. Later I expanded my interest into Futurama, another Twentieth Century Fox television show. I will describe informal outreach activities connected to both programs, including our educational website Simpsonsmath.com and my interactive lecture that audiences have accessed worldwide from a Futurama DVD. I will summarize the reception of my work by departmental colleagues, the institution, and the mathematical community. I will reflect on how this work has affected students and general audiences. I will also consider the direct and indirect impacts on my career and the unique challenges and rewards of working with popular culture in teaching, scholarship, and outreach. Key Words Popular culture, Outreach, SoTL, The Simpsons, Futurama MSC codes 00A09, 00A66, 97A40, 97A80, 97D40 24.1 Introduction Educators have a variety of methods available to them to deliver mathematical content and facilitate student engagement and learning. Mathematical cartoons can be a fun way to introduce or review concepts and reduce student anxiety (Schacht and Stewart 1990).

  • Homer Simpson's
    Homer Simpson’s “Doh!” Singsong between Music and Speech Albrecht Riethmüller, Berlin The article examines sound phenomena situated between word and music, voice and noise, and singing and speaking. A theoretical exposition of three modes of com- munication – articulation, gesticulation and modulation – is followed by examples from the TV cartoon series The Simpsons, including Danny Elfman’s overture and Homer Simpson’s signature exclamation, “Doh!”. A growing number of research projects on the subject of voice have recently gained international attention. As expected, the studies’ outcomes are trans- mitted by written and spoken words. No one would anticipate that the results be sung. Why are thoughts and ideas communicated by the spoken word and not by singing, even on questions concerning the voice itself? Why do we trust the persuasiveness of rhetoric1 above the expressiveness of emotion? 1. Complete and Incomplete Communication In recent discourses on the phenomenon of voice, one repeatedly cited para- digm is the sound of the sirens, those same sirens created at the beginning of our written western tradition by Homer in his Odyssey (XII). A full library has been devoted to them over the ages, and countless writings speculate about how they might have sounded. The predominant general agreement is that the sirens probably uttered a type of singsong. This is also how Debussy set 1 Kant, in his Critique of Judgment (first published 1790), had second thoughts when it came to ars oratoria as it evoked in him “an unpleasant feeling of disapprobation of a treacherous art” (1951: 172; § 53, annotation). 216 Albrecht Riethmüller them in his third Nocturne for orchestra entitled “Sirènes” (1897), where the women’s chorus adjacent the orchestra sings vowels, not words.
