The Simpsons does a lot of parodies of popular/famous shows, books and films, especially in the Treehouse of Horror episodes. Does anybody have a favourite? I'm sort of undecided, but I liked the parody of the 1980's film The Shining, although there were many others I really enjoyed as well.

I was thinking of The Shining when you mentioned this haha. I also like how they've done the Star Wars references too. I thought it was good how they did the Steamboat Willy. I'm not sure if you'd count this but I really like it when they take off the Peanuts characters also, they've done this a couple of times. They've done so many, I know I'm going to be missing out a ton, would be cool to see a full list of all the parodies they've done but I can imagine that would be quite a big list haha Congrats on getting to your handing a flaming Moe post count by the way

Yeah, the Treehouse Of Horrors seem great for doing these really don't they? I've been trying to think about more parodies that come to mind for me that they've done as there has been so many.
I do love the scene where they come in as South Park characters, Adventure Time, Pokemon etc... at the end.

Same here, and I liked the brief parody of the Breakfast Club they did where it was crossed with the Fight Club:

The Minecraft one is interesting; I remember the intro but not the scene with the kids going into school with one student dressed as a Minecraft character.
