Metaphor

HE reader Mike Schaefer writes that "if you didn't see South Park last night, you need to catch the encore tonight at 10 pm. They mercilessly skewer Steven Spielberg and George Lucas for a half-hour. I thought of you all through the episode." Schaefer didn't mention that the show includes graphic dream-sequence footage of Spielberg and Lucas having their anal way with Indiana Jones.


Here's a Comedy Central clip from the show. Here's another one. Not since Deliverance has the viewer been jolted by such a depiction of violation.

I am a HUGE fan of South Park...never miss it. Last night was just ridiculous. I couldn't believe the balls of those guys. And while I am on Butters' side in that I sort of enjoyed myself while watching it, it was extremely funny. They animated George Lucas' O-Face. I nearly choked on my laughter. The show just keeps nailing it, each and every week that it's on.

I think it's safe to say that Trey Parker and Matt Stone will not be invited to the Skywalker Ranch to preview a new videogame any time soon. Of all the humorists working in America (the world?) right now, they are the only ones that consistently push the envelope, while still having something important to say.

You gotta love those guys.

That rape scene from THE ACCUSED was so fucked up. I don't think I can look at George Lucas' face again.

Trey Parker came off as a self-important asshole in terms of his comments on THE GODFATHER making-of on the new DVD reissue.

He's someone who should never be let near interviewers.

what did he say? why was he interviewed for the new Godfather DVD anyway?

Family Guy had a decent parody of The Accused. Peter got the prostate exam and...well, you should just watch it.

Parker made a fairly stupid comment about Coppola filming the wedding scene even though there were "mistakes" in terms of the extras performing in the scene; that's what I recall.

He was interviewed because he's part of the Paramount/Viacom family; Kimberly Peirce (who's far more interesting to listen to) is on the disc as well because STOP LOSS was a Paramount/MTV release.

Likely Parker and Stone wouldn't have done last night's SOUTH PARK if Spielberg (who brought about the current GODFATHER restoration) and Dreamworks weren't leaving Paramount.

Safe to say you won't see episodes with anal violation of Mel Karmazin and/or Sumner Redstone.

At least there's something to be thankful for on Nov. 27.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing ads for the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull DVD running throughout the rest of Comedy Central's programming after the episode.

Too bad they couldn't have parodied the rape scene from IRREVERSIBLE as well.

So why did this guy think of Jeff when he was watching the episode? Most of us hated Indy 4 the FIRST time we saw it.

Great episode. The indy thing was a punch line, you know something horrible happened, there's build up then the reveal it was the Indy movie. I was on the floor. It must lose something knowing what's coming but it's great, great, stuff.

These guys are the best.

Well, Cartman was the racist and as usual he was shown to be wrong and crazy. Though he does NOT condone the shooting of dudes in the crotch. That something you just DO NOT do.

I love this show.
