South Park Discussion
 

I just wanted to start this thread because I havn't even seen one before, despite the show running for over 8 years. Some would say the show has declined in popularity over the years and I would agree, but I still think the episodes are kickass!

Anyway, the second half of the season 10 starts this week, and what better way to start it off than a World of Warcraft parody. It looks awesome, and I found 2 previews on Youtube -

It should be an interesting episode I think, it looks like they'll have lots of footage from the game as well which they've never done before.

Anyway, if anyones interested feel free to discuss South Park here, the episodes, seasons, characters etc.

It's on Wednesday, right?

If this conflicts with Lost, I'm watching Lost, so I hope they are smart enough to have it at 10 or something.

10PM, no need to worry :)

That's awesome!

...not a fan of Warcraft, but still.

Dahahaha <3 Definitely gotta see it. Saw the trailer yesterday.

South Park is hilarious. The movie was great too. When I first saw the movie, I was literally in tears laughing (ex. the movie theatre scene).

South Park is the best series ever...EVAR. The satirical stuff is the best in the world simply becuase they go where other shows would probably not think of going.

... And get in trouble doing it. But Matt and Trey don't care :D

South Park still has some great episodes, my personal favourite being the Anime parody (LET'S FIGHTING LOVE!).

IMO I reckon Matt and Trey's knowledge about the popularity of other animated comedies (Family Guy etc.) affected their ability to nail every episode. But still a great series.

The movie was witty. It was excellent.

"SCREW YOU GUYS, I'M GOING HOME!"

Too bad South Park is banned in the Philippines, the only way we get to watch it is through pirated HK dvds. It's so awesome that my sister sings the "Fingerbang" song even though she doesn't know what it means.

Oh shit, it comes on tonite :'D Fun stuff <3<3

Or maybe she DOES, Vemp! Is she single?

Either way, I am really looking forward to the season premiere not only because I love South Park, but because it's about World of Warcraft, so I am definitely eager to see how they portray the people who play the game (As one), as well as what the story actually entials. So excited!

Man, this episode looks to be HILARIOUS! I can't wait for tonight!

Pumped for this. Serially. One of the few shows that's only gotten better with every season.

For those that don't have comedy central, what are the chances of a torrent popping up after?

I would say one would be up within a few hours.

I dont know what time its comming on so, if someone would be nice and post when its over, that would be great... Yeah, so I can then go start looking for the torrent.

I'm watching the newest episode right now. So funny, I can't stop laughing at it.
What are the chances that WoW will get more subscriptions after evryone see's this ^_^

Looks like Blizzard had a hand in making it, so I'm sure it's part of a ploy to get more cash on their end.

I expected more gold thrones encrusted with jewels in their board room though.

Greatest episode ever. I loved every moment of it. The end was fabulous.

Great episode. The fact that they used game footage was even better. Im glad the creators actually know what their talking about when using MMO slang and stuff to that effect.

I guess you had to be a WoW nerd to fully appreciate that episode. I found myself constantly asking my brother questions. I still laughed at a lot of the jokes, though. Everytime I saw Cartman I bust out laughing, actually.

I dont play WoW, but the game references in general were still hilarious.

Ironically, I missed it because I was playing WoW... Undead Strat run took horribly long ;__; THREE STITCHINGS DOWN. SEVEN TO GO OLOLOL

Wow, that episode was really funny! Using the in-game footage like that was really well-done - made me think of Red vs. Blue, if RvB were about people playing Halo. Quality machinima. The WoW jokes were all very funny, and as a WoW player myself, I understood all of them. I liked how they seemed to make explicit reference to the Leeroy Jenkins video when they were planning their massive battle against the PKer. Excellent reference humor.

In general, an awesome episode. I loved how the four of them got really fat and pimply. They snuck in, possibly, a different little jab at how the 'industry is ruining our country' when Stan's dad threw the guy out of the car. So good.

Same here. Me and my sister have never played a single Blizzard game, but we were laughing our asses off the whole time nonetheless. It had lots of WoW references (I'm assuming), but most of them seemed broad enough so that even casual gamers could get them.

I only caught the last 5 minutes or so because I was busy playing LEGO Star Wars II, but it looked hilarious. It was great how they were even using Goldshire's music. I'll have to catch it when they rerun the episode later in the week since I played WoW for about a year.

It isnt in the game, the whole skit in South Park was made just for that episode.

I saw the episode a few minutes ago. I don't play World of Warcraft either, but I thought the entire episode was genius. Every time somebody said internet lingo out loud, it cracked me up!

That episode was genius. I loved how they used the in-game footage, but i've no idea how they got everything sync'd to their voices.

Bravo Matt and Trey, bravo.

Bliz probably helped them out and had some guys doing model tricks and such. Wonderful PR stint (as if they needed it) ;D

wah!
 

how was it shown in a good light? it made it look like WoW turns kids into obese nerds with no lives. if anything I thought it was very negative towards WoW.

people at dailymotion.com usually get the south park episodes up in a few hours after it airs.
You can see the full new episode here if you've missed the warcraft episode

I loved the Vent talk! :D My girlfriend was cracking up even harder than I was, given she's heard my guildies talking over vent during a dungeon run.

Overall, I think they could've done a lot more with the episode. Maybe Comedy Central can convince Blizzard to do a mini-series of WoW episodes Red vs. Blue style.

Just finished watching it...

Yep, it was AWESOME! I love the lip-syncing in the WoW. I especially loved the Butters moment... lol LOL . I love Butters, he is my favorite because he is soooo cute and innocent. :D

Yes butters is probably the most normal child but his perents are fucked up, I somehow wish cartman killed them too ^_^

I googled for Hello Kitty Island Adventure after the show. No dice. :(

Figured of getting the game? You know that would make it even more hilarious, if it actually existed. :)

I'd be playing it right now but no. Thanks for getting my hopes up, Butters. :(

There was also Stan's father who did not get obese. Plus all the character animations might trick some people who don't play to think that you can actually do all that in the game.

Stan's father didn't get obese because he was one of the many who just didn't play much if at all because of the monster player on the loose so what's your point?

Basically that this episode of South Park will probably help sales of WoW more than it will hurt. I'm sure that people might get curious and give the game a try.

As will be everyone if they pick up the game after watching South Park.

Ha, I do like how I've been seeing these $2 14-Day-Trial discs this last week or so. I definitely wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard helped them with this, to try and spread this game out more to the masses (especially since I've been seeing those discs at Wal-Mart of all places).

I just finished watching the episode.

Wow, just wow (no pun intended).

Even if they have school, they'll still find a way to play it there too, just like the boys did on the show. In other words, WoW makes you a fat nerd no matter what!

Did anyone else hope that Butters would've pulled a Leeroy Jenkins while Cartman was planning the raid on the PKer?

No, because they were not in UBRS rookery or anywhere that could even resemble a snafu like that. Their levels were piss poor anyway and they would've gotten annihilated regardless of what they did. The PKer wasn't a raid boss where you have to have a MT up there first, as in most situations, so there was nothing to Leeroy.

lol n3rd.
I loved the song they used while trying to level, attached it if anyone wants it.
I also looked for a hello kitty game and the only thing i found was this.

I just signed up for the mailing list. Gonna be one of the firsts to play. :megaman:

First note. Dont call someone a "noob" if you dont have anything to prove that they are. Just to let you know I have been playing Warcraft since it came out. I have every game, and play them on a monthly basis. I even have WoW speical edition and preordered the special edition of Burning Crusade. I know the whole histroy of Warcraft, oh and I have the Arthas figure on my desk. By the way, his sword looks eactly the same as it does in WoW episode. Interesting that I am the "noob"

Now what I am looking at on the action figure and from what is in this picture. http://guidesmedia.ign.com/guides/12...humanone9l.jpg
Funny how they both seem to have straight blades. It is also just as funny that the arthas figure's sword has the same hilt and runes on it as the one in the show. So odd that they are similar in many ways. So very odd.

Now as for FrostMourne being in the new expansion, thats not going to happen. First off explain how one would obtain the sword if the only one is up in Northrend with Arthas, a place that isnt open to any players in the game. Odd how that would work isnt it, seeing how they are just opening outworld. Now it is true that there are rumors on the next expansion that Northrend will be open and that frostmourne will be a drop, yet as of the moment, it is not in burning crusade.

So shameful that you called someone a noob with no research.

Are you seriously arguing whether or not a fictional sword from a fictional game appeared in a fictional cartoon show that was made to mock people that argue over whether or not a fictional sword from a fictional game appeared in a fictional cartoon show?

Time paradox.

The episode was great. Glad to see them continue off of the absolutely great ninth season. The fat-ass training montage was great, as was the constant jabs at the internet culture. I damn near died when Randy stole the car.

who gives a crap, and i think he ment n00b as a joke.
Next episode is just made for people to rip at,

I am really happy with this season so far, I hoped it wouldn't dissapoint after the awesomeness of the 9th season. The new episode (1009) comes out on my birthday so I am obviously going to have a good one :)

Anyways, since I know some of you can't watch them on TV - here are two sites that usually have the new episode about an hour or so after it airs.

Cartmanland
South Park X

They usually have the .rm file first, then .avi soon after

Wow episode of South Park was awesome all the way through. I havent laughed so hard at SP in a very long time. The bit that made me laugh the most was the "And I can even wave at this guy, look..... Hello", really tickled me.

I was an uber FFXI geek up until may this year (75SMN, 75BRD, 75BLM, 75RDM, 68THF and everything else at least 37, Sea cleared and all god armor obtained, and 3 K Clubs on the account on my mules lol) when I finally deleted my account, so I totally get the humor in this episode and it reminded me of me lol.

Oh and Blizzard did have alot to do with the episode, my housemate was telling me that they sponsered the makers of SP and helped them build the episode using special servers. I dont have any factual evidence, just what my housemate said, but im sure someone will find some evidence soon enough.

newest episode was loool, not as funny as the WoW episode (doubt many more will be) but it was still great.
