Topic | Gauntlet Crew Ranks Animated TV Show Movies |
PrinceKaro 08/19/18 8:44:15 PM #397: | 1. South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut Snake: 1 Johnbobb: 1 Scarlet: 1 Charon: 1 Inviso: 2 JONA: 2 Red: 2 Karo: 3 Stifled: 4 Genny: 4 Total Score: 21 Snake: Pretty much stands heads-and-shoulders above every other movie on this list. A phenomonal takedown of musicals, PC culture, politics, and everything in between. The musical numbers, besides a few duds maybe, are hilarious and catchy. Its near impossible trying to get Uncle Fucker out of your head after watching this. My favorite part is probably Cartmans anti-cursing chip. Better animation then a majority of this list, and this is South Park were talking about. Its message remains relevant today, making South Park a timeless, and more importantly, hilarious movie for the ages. Johnbobb: To date, still my favorite portrayal of Satan in any media (though Care Bears 2 comes close). He's hilarious and gets what is by far the best song in the movie (sorry Brian Boitano). The message about hypocritical censorship is hilariously blunt, and the songs are surprisingly memorable, given how short and goofy they all are. Every significant character gets their moment, but none feel particularly dragged out (though the Clitoris subplot is a little forced and not particularly enjoyable). It's just a really, really funny movie. Scarlet: You have to wonder why Karo thought a list of movies for children or those with the minds of children should include one singular entry of raucous offensive material designed to infuriate those with more delicate sensibilities and why it was worthy of the time of Gauntlet Crew. Especially when you find yourself questioning why the satire of this film doesnt land as hard as many of the greatest episodes of South Park itself. Still, there is a bold ambition and a thumb in the nose of the overbearing MPAA of the time. The morality police of the 90s receive rightful jabs, and the flavor of the film doesnt do a disservice to the show in question. Rating: 67/100 Charon: In what could have just been an excuse to use higher level swear words, the South Park team actually thought of a lot of clever ideas for this film. Yes, the ability to use high grade curse words was definitely a dream lived out, but what makes this movie truly special is the tongue in cheek fact that it's also a musical. Rather than simply do what a few other films do on this list, it didn't go for the feeling of an elongated episode. This feels nothing at all like a South Park episode; you always know you are watching a film, and to me that's the mark of making one of these work. You want it to feel like a movie yet have the basis of your show persist and permeate through it. South Park's social commentary style comes through strong, but as a different medium than what it normally is. Inviso: This was far and away the best movie Ive watched thus far on this list, if only because South Park is inherently a debaucherous show, so the more random aspects of the movie are easier to accept and tolerate. As much as I think Trey Parker and Matt Stone are kinda assholes in their more modern political beliefs, I appreciate their love of musicals and their desire to subvert traditional musicals with this and Book of Mormon, for example. A lot of the songs in this movie are hilarious (especially the utter randomness of the Brian Boitano song), and I love it. I also love that it stays true to the characters and manages to build the insanity in a way that makes sense within the universe. Its just got a solid plot of a minor event blowing out of proportion in the best of ways. JONA: Read one of the other writeups to see why people like the winner of this list. I am willing to look foolish if this somehow doesn't win. --- https://i.imgtc.com/a6iBg1Y.jpg all going according to the plan of BKSheikah this time... ... Copied to Clipboard! |
