See What A Live-Action 'Simpsons' Movie Would Look Like

Though it would never ever happen in a million years (we wish and hope and pray), it's still fun to play around with image software to see what a live-action movie based on the animated TV show The Simpsons would look like if it starred a bunch of today's hottest actors and actresses. Australian graphic artist (and Cinematical reader) Brad Anderson created this project as a way to promote his new graphic design business, and I have to say he did a pretty good job finding celebrity images and then tweaking them to fit the Simpsons mold. Can you guess who is who just from looking at the image above? Go ahead and try, I'll give you a moment ...
Give up?
Here's the cast: Homer (George Clooney), Marge (Cate Blanchett), Bart (Ewan McGregor), Lisa (Reese Witherspoon), Maggie (Jennifer Aniston), Otto (Johnny Depp), Krusty (Vince Vaughn), Ned Flanders (William H. Macy), Moe (Steve Buscemi), Mr. Burns (Willem Dafoe), Millhouse (Dustin Hoffman), Mr. Smithers (Stephen Colbert) and Chief Wiggum (Ricky Gervais). We posted the Simpsons family in the gallery below, along with a larger version of the image up top. Head over to Brad's site to view the rest, and throw this guy some business if you're looking for a graphic designer. For the love of god, he's a Simpsons fanboy! Pay the man!

Uhh, if I was looking for a graphics designer I think I'd choose someone with a better grasp of photoshop.
I prefer the untoons...

Oh, c'mon - the Steve Buscemi as Moe image cracked me up. I kinda liked the Vince Vaughn as Krusty as well.

I cant tell the difference between good and bad photoshop, so I cannot join that argument. But am I the only person who found this picture really creepy? I don't know what it is, but it looks so wrong.

At first glance, I thought Mr. Smithers was Terry Bradshaw.
