When Bart goes to vist Milhouse, right after the wedgie Milhouse leans over and whispers says: "I'll always love you Bart," before shouting "Springfield baby! Springfield baby!"

I could have sworn I saw a similar line in a movie somewhere. Anyone know?

Well, one place you didn't see it was in the episode "Last Exit to Springfield", as that line is from "Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore". :-)

Someone told me that there's a similar scene in Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket" where Pvt. Pyle, the recruit played by Vincent D'Onofrio is about to get hazed. I saw the movie but barely remember it.

Has the script, but there's no mention of dialog, though my friend swears that Pvt. Joker says to him "this is only a dream" before Pyle's beaten with soap socks. Not quite the same as "I love you, Bart" but pretty much in the same vein of human emotion. I guess I'll have to rent the movie to see for myself.

Of course, Milhouse's denial of Bart had parallels to Judas and the other disciples but I still think I've seen that exact scene played out in a movie, which is pretty standard fare for the Simpsons. Take Dr. Zaius, for example. "Planet of the Apes" doesn't even sound so strange for a Broadway play anymore, given what they've already dragged onto the stage kicking and screaming.

This is obviously an early draft and not the shooting script, many things in the movie were done differently, e.g., the Senior DI was shot in the latrine, not the barracks, I believe the character known as Alice was 8-ball in the film, etc. I think your friend's right, BTW.
