Bart Simpson's Nude Scene

Cartoon Kid Bares it All in "Simpsons Movie"

On Friday, April 27, it was revealed that America's favorite bad boy, Bart Simpson, would be appearing in the buff in "The Simpsons Movie." The much anticipated first "Simpsons" animated feature will premiere at theaters on July 26, 2007, narrowly dodging an R-rating because of Bart's

 nude scene. It will, in fact, be the first movie to dodge an R-rating where there's full frontal nudity, animated or otherwise. The scene comes early in the film where Homer challenges his son to skateboard nude through the town of Springfield. And Bart does.

"The Simpsons Movie" won't be the first animated feature to face ratings controversy. In 1972, animator Ralph Bakshi's version of comix artist Robert Crumb's "Fritz the Cat" became the first animated feature to receive an X-rating. Despite the loose (and some critics have said "inferior") interpretation of Crumb's masterwork, the film became a box office hit, the first animated feature to gross more than $100 million. "Fritz" then spawned other X and R-rated animated features.

Other adult-oriented animated television series, such as "South Park" and "Beavis and Butthead", have released successful full-length feature versions of their shows. When Paramount asked "South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone to make a PG-13 film, they refused, stating that they wouldn't make the movie unless it was rated "R." Paramount caved in. The 2001 Guinness Book of World Records said that "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut" had more profanity than any other animated feature: 399 curse words in all. And Japanese anime features, which are becoming increasing popular in America, often earn R-ratings because of sex and violence.

The writers and creator of the film have gone on record saying no one really knows what is going to be in the movie because they are feeding the world all fake information and everything seen in trailers as well up until this point has also been mostly cut out and replaced...so I wonder if this is a joke of theirs....of course as a Simpsons fan I'll go see
