South Park: Joining the Panderverse

The producers hit the target with this intelligent and acidic humor, a trademark of South Park, Disney's current "panderverse" and the lack of creativity in Hollywood (which even seems to have its latest scripts created by AI's), so repetitive and with swapping genders and races of classic characters, making no sense at all.

It's great when a work (like this film) addresses something that all of us who love the priceless Marvel Universe, which Disney bought (it would be better to say, kidnapped) have done with our beloved characters.

I would love to see the reaction of Kathleen Kennedy, Bob Iger, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, watching their Southparkian counterparts.

Good job, Trey Parker and Matt Stone!

Looking forward to this gang's next adventure!

This was one of the funniest piece of content I've seen in a long time. It was so accurate to the modern landscape.

• No one likes multiverses...they make the entire plot of most modern superhero movies pointless.

• The whole part about modern society lacking basic skills to maintain modern living standards without importing people in from foreign countries to keep the US from falling apart was just a great subplot.

• Didn't know who Kathleen was prior to this, glad to put a face to the crimes Disney commits against cultures they don't even represent. Pillaging and perverting foreign folklore and mythology is unacceptable. We as a society need to hold these bandits to a higher standard. Hopefully then we can get new original content that represents modern society.

South Park seems to always call out the absurd extremists on both sides of every issue. Not only do they call them out, they make it funny and entertaining. I think the world would be a better place if politicians would consult with the creators and writers of this show. With most politicians and media personalities, on both sides, out of touch with average people this would help. This special hits the nail on the head showing Hollywood laziness and shameless pandering. This episode does target Disney the most, but it's really true for the entertainment industry as a whole. I highly recommend everyone to watch this special.

South park has had many ups and down the last few years. But the specials were always a moment where south park could go above and beyond.

And I'm glad to tell you that this special is no different.

Balancing the tried and true formula with new ideas has always been a tough act. And in this episode they do repeat some storybeats from other recent specials. But not so much where it became boring.

Overall this episode shows a lot of the qualities post 2020 south park has to offer. And when ranking all the south park specials, this one sits somewhere slightly above the middle. Still the above average quality compared to standard episodes. But not hall of fame worthy.

Certainly worth a watch.

If comedy is one of the best forms of criticism and social commentary that any kind of establishment or oppression is not happy with then South Park is all too familiar with being an equal opportunities offender taking comedic jabs at everyone and everything throughout its long run. This episode made the news for this exact reason, since South Park, an established franchise is the first time ever the entertainment industry dared criticise the declining state of Disney and Hollywood in general, the mockery is intense and unmistakeable, yet tasteful and comedic. The title of the episode, "pander-verse" , is a portmanteau of the multi - "verse" and "pandering" ; it is common knowledge Hollywood is mass producing mediocre superhero movies and remakes that fail at the box office one after another and it is this exact phenomenon South Park is mocking in this episode while making social commentary on the changes AI is going to bring in society.

A great episode, great commentary, a must watch, my favorite scene is parallel universe Cathleen-Cartman Kennedy ordering at the Asian Wok restaurant, the scene is too much fun!! They nailed it!
