A very good ass movie that really bring out the best of what South Park was during that era. I would love to Trey and Matt do a other theatrical South Park movie one day, a sequel to this.

I saw this in the theater the weekend it came out. During the "Uncle F%$ker" song, the crowd in our actual theater got up and started leaving, along side the crowd in the movie getting up and leaving. It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. My entire face hurt from laughing when I left the theater.

The Kenny face reveal in the movie makes the first Mysterion "reveal" so much funnier because the only feature we knew Kenny had was blonde hair.

@@BlackOpsPeppe I never said south park was better back then just that I was nostalgic for era. Yes things should and will change but not all change is positive. Also the boys relationship has changed with cartman becoming worst while the boys and most of the characters softening. So now cartman instead of being a bad friend he is usually just the antagonist who the boys remain friends with because of the status quo. This does allow for some great episodes of cartman Vs Kyle but at ot makes all the more ridiculous and hard to believe they would ever put up with cartman especially since cartman and Kyle aren't even friends.

The censorship drama gets more and more relevant every year. Last year I went to a “Weird Al” Yankovic concert where he told a story about one of his songs, One More Minute. A couple of lyrics included the phrase “I’d rather lick all the toilets in Grand Central Station with my tongue”. The censors told him this wasn’t appropriate for the music video version of the song, so they replaced it with “I’d rather lick all the toilets in Grand Central Station with my BLEEP”. “That’s actually worse!” He joked. So ironic in that trying to fight for censorship some inadvertently make something that SHOULD be censored.

It is 3 episodes after this film came out until Butters was finally named and finally made into a character. During this time, he was only a Background kid and Pip was the pawn of 4 boys.

I grew up on British TV in Canada and The Simpsons would not have been possible without Tracey Ullman. The Tracey Ullman Show introduced The Simpsons to American (and Canadian) audiences. She's best known for Tracey Takes On in the 90s and she had a small but memorable role as Latrine The Witch in Robin Hood: Men In Tights. She also had a hit song, "They Don't Know," which was a cover of a 70s song, but in 1983 she turned it into a throwback to Motown. It's really good and Paul McCartney makes a cameo in the video.

[@Omnipotentmonkey]

Boycotting and cancel culture are two completely different things and the fact that so many people don't understand that is troubling. A boycott is when a group of people have a grievance with someone or something and use the power of withholding their money or time to affect change. Cancel culture is when a group of people have a grievance and demand the government or any authority to step in and stop or eliminate the thing they don't like. If you think the Montgomery bus boycott is ANYTHING like cancel culture you need a history lesson.

[@ForFearOfDeath]

Not to mention the fact that when most people talk about being opposed to cancel culture they’re referring to groups of people attacking an individual and attempting to ruin their life because of that person’s opinions. Whereas a boycott is targeting a corporation. The fact that people can’t tell the difference between not paying for a product or service and actively trying to ruin a single person’s life is insane.

[@zoidySVK]

Also cancel mob uselly use namecalling. Like when you buy harry potter game they call you transphobic fascist for example.

[@Angel_Investor_Music]

Cancel culture is about a mob targeting an individual person and trying to ruin their career over something relatively or totally innocuous. It doesn't matter if the person is a regular guy or a known celebrity. The point is to get them fired and convince everyone to hate them unless they apologize (but even then they remain cancelled). It often involves people going out of their way to dig up someone's decade-old tweets that nobody thought were controversial at the time, but which may trigger the sensibilities of modern crybullies. It is a completely manufactured outrage cycle perpetrated by terminally online activists who want to ruin people's lives for fun. Boycotts target corporations. The customer is always right, so it is always the corporation's own fault if they have isolated and angered a substantial portion of their consumer base.

[@chadharger9323]

​@@zoidySVK Another difference ans it's a huge on. When people boycott it starts and ends with the company, product, and/or person(s) in question. Cancel culture goes far beyond the target(s). The word 'culture' is a big clue. What they are doing is practically a culture war.

[@PewPewPark]

Yes it's always been a pet peeve when people don't get it. Boycott is making a choice to not support someone or something you don't agree with. Canceling is trying to deny people their choice to support or not support them.

Regardless of who's doing them, cancelling and boycotting are two different things. Boycotting is personally abstaining from a product, company or creator. It comes with social pressure, ie telling others they should join you, but that's where the influence ends. It's essentially you participating in the free market and choosing to lower demand on your end. Cancelling is attacking the success of the product OUTSIDE of the free market, trying to make it fail by pressuring other factors that help it succeed, like employers or potential income sources, regardless of the demand that exists for it. The Hogwarts Legacy boycott was just a boycott until people started harassing streamers for enjoying the game, then it became a cancellation attempt.

This is one of the funniest movies ever made. It's great, because it works even if you've never seen the show before. It's a perfectly self-contained story, and has the audacity to pull off being a social commentary, an irreverent comedy, and an animated musical at the same time.

Another Fun Fact: Paramount Pictures originally asked Trey Parker and Matt Stone if they could make a PG-13 rated film. They said no and would not agree to make a movie until the studio agreed that the final product would be rated R.

This was already a movie I loved before I realised it came out on the exact day I was born, at which point it just became an annual tradition to watch it then. It’s a movie I can never get bored of, it’s worth it for La Resistance alone, and everything else is just as spectacular.

I saw "Oklahoma" on stage when I was a tween - and later listened to the show's soundtrack over and over - so I caught all the references to it in the songs. "Mountain Town starts out a lot like "O What a Beautiful Morning," "Uncle F***a" has a spelling-out at the end just like the title song, and "It's Easy, Mmkay?" has roughly the same meter as "The Farmer and the Cowman." I've also noticed that "What Would Brian Boitano Do?" sounds a lot like (appropriately enough) "Jesus Christ Superstar."

This was given an NC 17 rating for the strong graphic language, yet the creators had to cut down some swears to get an R Rating. This is the same thing that happened to Team America World Police.

One of the things that they had to alter made it far better: Unclefucker. It was supposed to be motherfucker. But if they used a nonsensical term that nobody uses, it wasn't as harshly graded.

[@robertgreen6499]

What people also forget at the time because of all the fighting against the Censors, and only being into 2 seasons when this was being made. This was the creators giving everyone the birds. Putting everyone on blast, and if they truly were going to get canned because of all these groups against them they wanted to do it in the best way they can. And well minus all the changes they've done to the series they are still here all these years later.

I can't help but think that 'Blame Canada' and what the song is also poking fun at is even MORE relevant now nearly 25 years later. The mothers in this film would be proud of the Twitter generation. Doug's quote "their outrage might be doing more harm than good" sums it up perfectly!

I hope this review isn't a sign that Doug's gonna start censoring his Nostalgia Critic videos. One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to KZbinrs is when they become so paranoid about getting demonitized that they start walking on eggshells and resorting to self-censorship, often while going "LOL, we can't say/show that on KZbin." Swearing and inappropriate jokes in general have always been the biggest source of humor for the Nostalgia Critic, and it would be a huge shame if Doug started bowdlerizing his most popular show. Besides, most Nostalgia Critic videos are already sponsored, so I don't see why Doug needs to worry about losing money.

[@arilumani6194]

AVGN, Angry Joe, Jackseptcieye, Gigguk, The Critical Drinker and Mother's Basement have been swearing as usual lately and they haven't been demonitized once. Meanwhile, other channels like Cinema Sins, Smosh, PhantomStrider, Joshscorcher, The Completionist and Spaberspark have been censoring themselves since the dawn of KZbin. There is also Helluva Boss which has characters constantly swear and, once again, Vivziepop hasn't been demonitized once. I wouldn't be shocked if the the new policy becomes irrelevent sooner or later and everyone on KZbin goes on like nothing happened.

8:16 Boycotting is different than cancelling. Boycotting is abstaining from doing business with a company. Cancelling is directly attacking an individual's livelihood and personal safety through a campaign of harassment against their employers, banking institutions, and assaults on them directly.

A Boycott and Cancelling are not the same thing. A Boycott is not buying from a company. This affects a corporation or business. Canceling is a person being silenced and shunned from society. This affects an individual. If you work at a company that's being boycotted and it's having an affect on your life, you can get work elsewhere. If you're cancelled and it's affecting your life, you can't get work anywhere.
