Those lazy buggers at Disney

Make one film, and just keep on tracing.

As was revealed during a Simpsons commentary, if you call it an homage it's not a rip-off.

Better than that 3D crap.

Apologies for reviving an old thread but I just saw this one the Daily Mail website.

The quote in there is almost what Seefacts said!

The quote in question - "Disney made one movie, and they've been tracing it ever since" - comes from an April 6, 2009, post on collegehumour.com.

Nice detective work.

I don't read that site, so I can claim full originality on the phrase obviously.

It was repeated in various forms on various sites. Nothing wrong with a bit of homage; though really, if we're English speakers, it should rhyme with 'porridge' and not with 'fromage'. I blame The Simpsons DVD commentaries for popularizing the French pronunciation in TV and movie-land. Quite frankly, 'oh-marj' is pretentious unless one is speaking French.
