Transcript:
Woodstock sits next to Snoopy on the doghouse, watching the latter look at an envelope. The latter thinks,"It's a letter from my brother Spike..."<BR><BR> He looks at the letter and thinks,"Poor Spike...he leads such a boring life..."<BR><BR> Spike lies on his stomach on a rock writing. He writes,"Dear Snoopy, Last week I decided on a career change."<BR><BR> Spike sits smiling at a drawing board on his lap. He writes,"I have always wanted to be an animator, I love drawing those mice and bunnies."<BR><BR> With his drawing book tucked under his arm, Spike stands at the roadside hitchhiking. He writes,"So I bundled up my drawings and set off for Hollywood."<BR><BR> Spike walks away from a signpost that reads,'Needles', and walks in the direction of the other that reads,'Hollywood'. He writes,"I had a new idea that I was sure they couldn't resist."<BR><BR> He walks into a building marked 'Ace Productions'. He writes,"I went into the first studio I could find and offered them my great idea for a new movie."<BR><BR> A voice, coming from behind a desk, says,"No, we're sorry, but we don't think it would be a good idea to animate 'Citizen Kane'" Spike thinks,"Rats!"<BR><BR>
He says that, but the Simpsons has basically recreated most if not all of the movie by now.
