I have a wav file of the Michael Moore part of the interview. If anyone is interested in hosting it, send me a PM or e-mail.
 
First of all, I don’t have cable or satellite TV, have never watched “South Parkâ€, and didn’t even know it existed until I started reading reviews about “Team America: World Policeâ€.

My wife (a very young 60) and I (58) went to see TA:WP this afternoon. It was better than I anticipated, and we liked it. There is one issue or short theme (proof of loyalty) for which we didn’t care, and we thought it was unnecessary, but the remaining 95% of the movie was just fine.

It does not take political sides, but it is pro-gun, anti-terrorist, anti-Hollywood, and anti-Kim-Jong-Il. They make fun of many liberal actors (not by implication, but by using their real names), and include Michael Moore in their satire.

Yes, it is vulgar; there is a lot of swearing, sex-innuendo, and explicit ‘puppet nudity’ and graphic ‘puppet sexual activity’. There also is a lot of violence and gore, a-la Kill Bill, but puppet-style. Most of the humor is original, and we found ourselves LOL several times.

They ‘borrow’ from many movies, such as “Star Warsâ€, “Crouching Tiger…â€, “The Matrixâ€, and others. I was impressed by the details, the puppet-type special effects, and the overall production of the movie.

We are glad we went to see it, but it may not be for everyone. I don’t believe it is appropriate at all for young kids, but I am not sure how to define young anymore.

Do yourselves a favor and go get "South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut". Great movie.
 
I saw Team America today. It was pretty funny. Matinee definitely. It had it's moments. Moral of the story....don't listen to actors preaching politics.
 
i am downloading it as we speak. if it is as good as everyone says it is i might have to see it in theatre to support matt and trey.
 
StandOnGuard,

It works for me. Maybe it doesn't send to Canada.:eek:

Just kidding.

It should work fine with a left click.
 
That sound clip from Conan was great. :D I've always liked South Park, even though they make fun of EVERYTHING, gun owners included, you could always tell something was right with them. One of my favorite lines from South Park was in the episode where the city banned fireworks and so Jimbo and Ned decide to drive to Mexico to bring back illegal fireworks. Jimbo's comment, "Hell, everything's legal in Mexico, it's the American way!"
 
Saw a Team America mattinee yesterday. 2-3 dozen people in the theater were laughing hystericall. I had tears running down my cheeks 3 times from laughing so hard.
