And look i am suddenly a girl simpsons12/7/2023 ![]() ![]() Pacific Data Images, a computer animation production company that had worked a bit on Batman Forever and Terminator 2-and did the digital rendering of the Pillsbury Doughboy in commercials-was looking to extend its reach into Hollywood at the time. (And one whose triumph of tech was somewhat trumped a month later with Pixar's release of the first CGI feature-length movie, Toy Story.) Suddenly, though, an erotic cake store captures his interest, and he wanders in as the credits roll, thus concluding an utterly bizarro adventure into the outer limits of 1995 technology. When Bart tries to rescue him from this math-y techscape, Homer falls into the black hole-and into our real-world realm-bringing us the first live-action Simpsons moment: CG Homer pulls himself out of the trash and walks down an L.A. His new-world trance is broken when a cone ( Shapes!

Discombobulated yet intrigued by these environs-as well as his more fully formed body-Homer's mouth leaks a beautiful drop of drool as he marvels at fish in a pool ("Mmmm, unprocessed fish sticks"). In this parody of The Twilight Zone episode "Little Girl Lost" that also riffed on the burgeoning state of computer animation, Homer discovers a "mystery wall" behind the bookcase and passes through the portal to enter a freaky new dimension that looks like what would happen if Tron and Battlezone had sex on Good Will Hunting's chalkboard. ![]() ![]() The formidable undertaking titled "HomerĀ³" ( referred to as "Homer Cubed" or "Homer 3-D" or "3-D Homer") sent the Simpson patriarch into new dimensions via CGI magic, which may look amusingly outmoded now but was rather stunning and visually innovative at the time. ![]()
