South Park: Imaginationland

Imaginationland is without a doubt one of the best thing trey and Scott have produced in years, it's a clever and interesting series of episodes that together conclude in one of the most epic stories ever seen on the show. The debt within the characters isn't as deep for someone who is new to the series, and unfortunately the character-development isn't something special. The whole film is according to me based on that you know the character since before (ex. the cartman and kyle dispute within the film). I love how references to earlier episodes is made all the time (similar to the episodes "200" and "201"). And once again does the producers find an interesting plot with an interesting dispute which has an interesting conclusion.

This is absolutely the best direct-to-video film ever made. It's a piece of violent irony, humor, satire, craziness, pointlessness and yet so right to the point. Matt and Trey succeed themselves in this visual masterpiece.

Since season 1, South Park's visuals have improved themselves, and now they are to the best South Park ever: a trilogy/movie with the satire David Zucker still had in the first 'Scary Movie', the satire of Tim Burton's 'Mars Attacks!', a certain complexness and a humor that's just so... absurd.

10/10

This was originally going to be the second film, compared to the first one this wouldn't be as good but still these are classic 3 parter episodes. The main plot is great and Cartman's sub plot is hilarious, every fan should see this!

Bonus Review for South Park in general:

The fact south park has managed to stay on the air after all the grief they have gotten over the years shows how great it really is.

Constantly keeping up to date, always being funny, reinventing the format, characters you care about (everyone has a favourite) and brilliant stories make this my joint favourite cartoon (tied with Futurama) of all time.

The Simpsons really went off a cliff in the last 10 or so years, but I think south park has stayed strong pretty much every season, even my least favourite season has classic episodes in it.

If you're reading reviews to see if you should start watching; you really should. Stick with it as it starts to hit it's stride and look better after a couple of seasons.

And if you haven't seen the film, that is a must see!

Full disclosure: I'm one of those Family Guy people.

South Park at its best can be fairly charming and inciteful but otherwise...

This was a lot of fun though. I think this show plays to its strengths when it has these macabre, silly adventures full of intertextuality.

It has the scale to justify being a TV movie but I agree that it is not "the sequel" to that other mover.

This bizarre sub-plot of Cartman trying to get Kyle to fellate him and apparently not in a gay way is bemusing but, hey, it keeps you weirdly compelled.

There isn't anything satirical. The military presence says nothing that hasn't been said before.

I have not seen the version on DVD, but I have seen the 3 episodes on television and on On Deamand for free.'Imaginationland' is basically 3 episodes combined together to make an entire movie.For 1 hour, I sat in my sofa and was entertained.Since I'm a huge fan of 'South Park', I love just about any episode.I even liked the 1999 movie 'South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.'Imaginationland' is just as excellent as any other good episode.The only difference between the this and the others is that this is more of a movie than just 3 episodes combined to make 1 movie.Just know that this episode is full of very rude humor and some slightly graphic animated violence, so this one isn't for everyone.Overall, I highly recommend this movie if you love the television series, funny and crude humor, and the first movie.Using your imagination has never been this funny.
