The Simpsons villain Mr. Burns is a renowned billionaire who is vile, conceited, and uses darkly humorous language.

Benson Boone has heard the jokes. He’s aware of the “moonbeam ice cream” ribbing; he knows the world thinks his flips are a gimmick; and as for the claims of being a “one-hit wonder?” He made a shirt.

When The Simpsons Movie rolled into theaters in 2007, it sold viewers on a big-screen blast of the show's trademark bite-loud, sharp, and unapologetically self-mocking.
