Is it 1994 again? "The Simpsons" movie is driving into multiplexes this summer and now Universal Studios Orlando officially announced that a "Simpsons" motion-simulator ride will take over the space previously occupied by the "Back to the Future" ride. The new attraction will thrust visitors into an adventure through Krusty Land. Sounds totally rad, dude.
   
We remember a time when we were much younger when "The Simpsons" lived alongside "Married with Children" and "In Living Color" on Fox. Bart Simpson was plastered everywhere. And although we didn't get the jokes back then, we appreciate them now. With these new — or maybe late? — forays into expensive new mediums, the 20-year-old franchise is experiencing a most interesting pop cultural renaissance.
