Street artist and director Banksy continues to show his love for Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa by storyboarding and directing the 1:44 second opening sequence for Fox's The Simpsons October 10th episode "MoneyBart." In case you missed it, below is the opening, in which lies a nod to his film Exit Through the Gift Shop. Courtesy of Banksy films.

20th Century Fox has removed the video, so for the next 55 days, here's the only place you can see it.



Banksy previously paid homage to The Simpsons in this New Orleans wall mural:

Memorable Quotes In Equally Memorable Typographic Art Posters By Jerod Gibson.

As a Los Angeles resident, coupled with working in advertising, it's not uncommon for me to experience (and engage in) conversations, facebook statuses, reader comments, punch lines, and headlines which incorporate great quotes from movies and television --and in more erudite circles, novels. But seldom have I seen some of those presented in as aesthetically a pleasing manner as those in the typographic posters of designer Jerod Gibson.

His series of typographic art prints, available in his online store 37 Posters, feature iconic silhouettes embedded in which are memorable quotes from such cult films and pop culture favorites as Pulp Fiction, The Simpsons, and The Big Lebowski. In tasteful colors with nice graphic layouts, the posters are as visually pleasing as they are smile-inducing.



If you're a fan, or better yet a "quoter" (Greg, Chad, Thom... you listening?), you'll probably like these as much as I do.
