Myth
OMG! This movie could be freakin hillarious. The trailer just came out and its by the creators of South Park. Trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/team_america/

BloomBabyGirl
the only funny part i saw wwas hwen they listed all the actors and were like are gonna be real mad

JamalMagloire
Matt Stone and Trey Parker are simply brilliant! The trailer is freakin hilarious and I love the idea of the puppets, they look so funny!!

Mayhem23
I read that originally Stone and Parker's idea for the string puppets was a take for take copy of The Day After Tomorrow. But they were advised by their lawyers to "please don't do that". But I absolutly love the World Police idea and trailer.

roundisfunny
Yeah, I hope it's as creatively subversive as it sounds. I've always like the Parker/Stone take on political commentary, because they do it right, not how they think they should do it.

BackFire
This movie will be gold. Trey Parker and Matt Stone have yet to faulter when it comes to their films.

BloomBabyGirl
this is gonna be the first

BackFire
Doubtful, don't let the unfunny preview fool you. Matt and Trey know better then to put all their good jokes in the preview thus allowing the audience to be disapointed by the actual movie. They'd rather give the audience low expectations with a preview, then to disapoint them with a good preview, but a lame movie, as most other comedies do.

furryman
Ahah it's Thunderbirds! laughing out loud I can't wait

Myth
The preview doesn't show anything funny that is actually in the movie... but the creativity of the preview shows what these guys are capable of. And I agree, their political takes are the best in SP so I can't wait to see what they do with this.

JamalMagloire
These guys are creative geniuses. After seeing what they did with South Park, I'm sure they'll blow us out of the water with this one. As for the trailer, i agree that they don't want to give away all the best parts. Too often trailers do that and then by the time you see the whole movie you've already seen all the funny parts and it's a let down.

Alpha Centauri
South Park had amazing moments but I think it was too hit and miss. BASEKetball was a side-splittingly funny movie though.

-AC

ragesRemorse
..i dont know man

JamalMagloire
I just read this article/interview in the LA Times about the movie and Matt and Trey were saying that after seeing the film people will wonder what side they're on, left or right, b/c they poke fun at both sides. Knowing that they have no "political ax to grind" makes me want to see it even more.

Spitback
looks good

Holcomb
From the trailer, it looks like no one is safe. Should be pretty funny.

wuTa
yea...this looks like it could hillarous..these two live to piss celebrities off..gotta love it

Primitive Screwhead #1
I hope you're right, BF... because that trailer was freaking awful.

JamalMagloire
Went to see Collateral this past weekend and saw the Team America trailer again...it got a good response and most people were laughing. Those puppets have to be the funniest thing ever...

xemir
looks ****en stupid.

Spitback
Looks brillyant

kali99
Finally - a good spoof movie about everyone! I love these two - and how they don't discriminate - they let EVERYONE have it!

lederuvdapac
"Hey terrorist...terrorize this! *BOOM*"

rayj
when does this come out again? I'm nervous because their movies are the funniest damn thing to me!!! I've been waiting for a new film for a long time, I would still like a live action film with them and squeak/choda boy in it, but yeah this looks like it will be good

KidRock
Matt stone and trey parker and HILARIOUS but the preview sorta..sucked. I am hoping they dont bomb out with this one. That would be a real dissapointment. I am still wishing they did a south park 2 movie sad

vagaryatwill
This one could really be good. Will be looking forward to it.

Holcomb
It comes out Oct. 15.

madsci
i saw the billboard for this movie on the side of a bus yesterday. i nearly ran into oncoming traffic because the mere sight of those puppets had me f#@king laughing so hard. thanks for linking the trailer page, it looks absolutely hilarious, as well as brilliant.

matt and trey rock!

madsci

Holcomb
I love the tagline, "Putting the 'F' back in Freedom"

Holcomb
I saw a funny TV spot during the mtv awards. Anyone else notice it?

Samurai Guy
This is soon to be released.. but it looks very funny. From Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of South Park. Just based on what I have seen on the official site and trailors on TV, this solidifys my opinion that it is far too easy to mock the War on Terrorism, George W. Bush, and such things henseforth.

Click here for the Official Site.

I cannot wait to see it. laughing

pinsleepe
laughing YEY!!!!!!!! I have to see it! Souht Park was the sickest movie I've ever seen!

Samurai Guy
Sickest? blink

<<Solo>>
It's slang for the most awesome. It's pretty gay.

pinsleepe
I am Polish. In Polish it means something else mad

Holcomb
I think this movie is going to be really funny too. I saw a leaked clip that was posted over on coming soon that has kim jong II in it. It was hysterical.

Samurai Guy
This movie looks hilarious.

Curl_Up&Dye
What does it mean in polish?

lol now im curious. Slang from other parts of the US/world fascinate me. I'm from Boston, MA so I know all about language mutilation...just listen to my accent...its Hahrible. lol

ash007
indeed looks good

Holcomb
Anyone else seen that clip with Kim Jong Il?

legion-u
i wanna see this move really bad it looks funny...but really cheap

VenomVA
Looks good, I can't wait to see it big grin

TheFilmProphet
Yeah I agree it look really funny. I think it was their intention to make it look cheap because it makes it funnier.

Cipher
Could be funny.....

The South Park guys usually are when its their own creation.
I might see it....

TheFilmProphet
I agree.

mc pee pants
it's getting good reviews so far. i'm actually surprised.

TheFilmProphet
I'm not because I know it must be really funny and entertaining.

Tex
It's still not rated because as it stands currently it would be released with an NC-17 rating! laughing out loud

TheFilmProphet
Seems good to me.

JamalMagloire
You know Parker and Trey won't disappoint. You can tell that the movie is gonna rock just with all the clips floating around. They are hilarious!

Lord Soth
It's an R-Rated puppet movie by the creators of South Park......what will these guys come up with next!!! (granted BASEketball was pretty crappy)

Major Knight
i cant wait to see this movie, granted i think the trailer had not yet shown anything actually funny, i still look forward to this movie just becuase all the ther movies they have made have mad eme laugh so much. like the episode "passion of the jew" they released on dvd becuase they couldn't show on tv it was f'ing halarious.

TheFilmProphet
Those two are genuises! It has to be good.

powerfulone1987
I want to see this movie, I'll probably buy it when it comes out on DVD.

TheFilmProphet
Yeah me too.

Anth
I for one. Think its pathetic.

TheFilmProphet
Why?

Drumdude1167
Someone said it was going to be NC-17...It better not be, ill be pissed

Samurai Guy
Care to elaborate on that?

It is, like I said in my first post, just solidifying the point that making fun of Bush and the War on Terrorism is far too easy to do.

Anth
South Park - creative. This just seems to be a crappy parody of the old fashion Thunderbirds.

Samurai Guy
With a war on terrorism and immature humour, true. Doesnt mean it is bound for failure.

It can be funny and unoriginal

TheFilmProphet
Nearly every Comedy is like that now.

JamalMagloire
New Trailer that I just came across. Action packed. I like this more and more.

http://www.craptv.com/trailer.mov

TheFilmProphet
It looks even funnier. It also has a surprising amount of action in it too.

mc pee pants
hey terrorist! terorrize this die

TheFilmProphet
Just saw the creators of South Park confirm the film is rated R although the people in charge wanted to make it NC-17. They also showed one of the scenes from the film. They had a UN inspector eaten by sharks.

FlappingMangera
yeah, the shark eats hans brix, that clip is so funny.

WindDancer
Did anyone watch their interview with Leno? I heard that Parker diss a few celebrities including Moore?

Drumdude1167
Those guys are good friends, in bowling for colimbine they had...uh....the jewish guy on and he was talking about how he grew up there and everything and thats what they based south park....Happy Dance

WindDancer
Well, despite the fact that I'm not fond of Marionettes......I'm on my way to see this film. I'll post a review tomorrow. All I want is that the film is friggin funny and hilarious.

fruits
i heard that theirs a steamy (hilarious) sex scene, and thats why its rated R. just two puppets bouncing against each other in different positions and stuff. thats what i heard

Elektra_lover
me too

Tex
I'm embarassed to admit but I must say that scene was very explicit! smokin'

...and funny as hell! laughing out loud

TheFilmProphet
Actually more than half of the scene was cut because some people thought it was too explicit. Before it was cut the film was rated NC-17 and now its rated R.

Tex
That's what I dont understand, they pretty much showed every sex position imaginable! What was there to cut?

The DVD should prove interesting! smokin'

TheFilmProphet
I think it just means that each of the positions shown originally ran longer before they were cut.

Tex
If that's the case, the MPAA is really dumb!
Or as Team America would say, dicks.

TheFilmProphet
They pick on movies like Team America when some rated G kid movies have adult jokes and references but they are not rated PG or PG-13.

WindDancer
A must see movie! Forget the politics this is a classic! Hollywood Celebreties got OWNED! I'm planning to see it again! The laughs never stop! Simply Superb work! thumb up

Myth
I won a free poster of the movie for having the most Regal Crown Club Card points out of everybody in the theater. WOO HOO! Once I get a ladder, it is going on my ceiling with all my other posters.

Tex
WOW, this movie totally bombed at the boxoffice.
It made less than half of what was expected.

Oh well, I guess it will be on DVD sooner! thumb up

Darth Revan
I heard that in the UK they gave it the equivalent of an NC-17 rating because "terrorism isn't funny". no expression

I want to see this... sometime in the near future

Silver Stardust
I heard that they basically put in some really explicit stuff in the sex scene that they knew wouldn't pass, just beacuse they wanted to see the censor people's reactions when they had to watch it laughing out loud

I really want to see this movie, one of my friends saw it and she said it is GREAT.

BackFire
Yeah, it's the funniest movie of the year. Pure gold. Done in the true spirit of South Park, no one is spared.

TheFilmProphet
Unfortunately. sad

Even though it is a great film.

The same happened with The Punisher.

WindDancer
It bomb because parents had to take their kids to watch that wannabe Finding Nemo a.k.a Sharks Tale.

TheFilmProphet
Yeah.

Also because it was rated R just like The Punisher was.

Myth
Also nobody saw the Punisher because word has it that it sucks. The word on the stree for Team America is possitive.

TheFilmProphet
If you never saw The Punisher than you shouldn't even post your oppinion on it. It was a great film but it was rated R so all the little kids couldn't go watch it.

Myth
Read carefully. I never once said that I thought it was bad. I said that nobody went to see it because generally people said it was bad.

TheFilmProphet
Ok then read my post carefully also. I didn't say that you said it was bad, I said that you shouldn't have a bad oppinion on it if you haven't seen it yet. I haven't met many people who thought it was bad.

Myth
You were implying that I... never mind. Back to Team America. I loved how even with puppets, the violence was sweet.

Myth

TheFilmProphet
Yes I agree the action was surprisingly great considering it was a film made with puppets.

MornGlory
Team America looks stupid- and will not pay a cent to see it--

but i've never watched South Park.. so

TheFilmProphet
Well I guess you have to understand how they work to a certain extent to fully enjoy their work.

WindDancer
I wasn't so excited about puppets myself before the movie. After the movie it was a great idea! give it a shot! Is worth it!

BadKitty
it came in third on box office weekend report..I don't think thats that bad...but I guarantee after word of mouth of how great this movie is the next couple of weeks it will be more successful.

I was at work and told people that I seen it...the first reaction was like "why did you see a puppet movie?" but when I started to tell them about it they were all laughing out loud...and a few of them said they are defiantly going to give it a chance.

God speed team America **** yeah!!

Vile
Hey all im new to this place, found the site the other day looking for Kill Bill discussions.

This movie kicked so much ass.

So hilarious how they parodied the marionette style they were doing and all the celebrities that were dissed.

laughing

WindDancer
I wonder if there will be a chance for a sequel. confused

Xtremechik2
Freakin awesome movie! I loved it

TheFilmProphet
When looking at the stats and profits so far I seriously doubt it. wink

Red Superfly
Me and friends only just got around to seeing this movie yesterday. It came out over here on Friday.

We all loved it. I'm a fan of South Park so I fully understood what they were doing.

Every single thing was a joke. The serious bits were funny because they referenced so many crappy American movies, I loved how they just took the piss the whole way through.

Funniest bits were the hand to hand combat (that matrix bit was great), and I loved the whole spy bit. When they reveal his face after all that surgery, me and my friends were literally crying with laughter.

I loved how the Terrorists managed to negotiate the streets perfectly, then Team America chase after them and destroy everything in sight! Class.

The scene where Gary is waving the signal "Looks like he's saying kiss me.......the cocky bastard!"

The drunk scene where he stumbles out of the pub.....man I was just sat there with a painful mouth after all that laughing, then the puking! I love it when anybody can make ME laugh at a toilet gag. Childish brilliance.

"Matt Damon!" laughing out loud

JKozzy
I hope there'll be more movies by Matt and Trey, perhaps another South Park movie... wishful thinking big grin

Myth
I'm just happy they decided to go onto season 9. There was a lot of talk about them ending with 8.

ladygrim
ive seen this ...hmm i thought its ok ..good for a laugh

Lord Shadow Z
I think it was okay but the humour was predictable at times and the scenes a bit tedious. The doll sex was funny but I think I'm scarred for life because of that. It's just wrong...

fanatos
Man, have I seen a funnier movie laughing laughing laughing . And all that d*cks, p*ssies and a**holes theory laughing laughing .

SaTsuJiN
was this movie funny?.. I wanted to see it but never got around to hittin up a theatre

Myth
No, the movie is completely serious at all times no expression

Lydia_J
I cant wait to see this film, I havent had the cahnce yet cos one of the friends i was going with was ill, but i'll be seeing it soon. Hope its as funny as the trailer looks.

PTim
It's amazing. Watch it.

*pukes*

...

...

*and pukes*

Myth
The trailer doesn't even give a hint of how funny this movie is. It is histerical.

SaTsuJiN
ah , yes... just the information I desired... utter sarcasm....not!...anyway.. if you take peoples questions so literally you shouldnt bother to post in reply...

naturally I didnt ask whether there was any tiny amount of humor in the film.. but if the humor already in the film was funny enough to pay cash to experience... k thx gg

brumbchick
"I promise I wont die..."
This movie was so good it had my sister in stitches and i havent found one person who didn't like it....
"it looks like hes saying 'kiss me kiss me'......"

Jason420
my fav comedy ever funniest movie i have evr seen and i got to see the sneak preview a week before it came out im so lucky

Myth
Well, maybe my comment wasn't necessary, but I posted it because your question wasn't necessary. All you had to do was READ THE PREVIOUS POSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! smile

BackFire
"k thx gg"

Oh no, you're bringing WoW type speak onto the boards! sick

Leggy_n_Merry
And that friend was me eek! haha! Just thought I'd tell everyone! Yeah I was in hospital poor me sad haha stretcher Yeah I desperately wanted to see this film it looked so funny and when I was ill I was like GODDAMN IT mad I wanted to go and see next week or something but I looked at the showing times and it wasn't there anymore weep crybaby it might be on a different week though but I dunno.... if not then i guess i'll just have to wait til it comes out on DVD...

Leggy_n_Merry
Yay I bought a poster of this it's cool cool does anyone else have a poster of it? I have the one that has 5 of them with their weapons and stuff! Oooh I haven't put it on my wall yet shocking I will now big grin

muse5
::starts singing, "AMERICA F*** YEAH!"::
my friends and i sing that at work all of the time .

i love team america, when's it coming out on dvd?

ladygrim
i like it cuz its different other than that i thought the humour was dodgy

Myth
I do. I won one for having seen more movies with my regal club card than anybody else in the theater. Its like 40" by 27" and is double sided. One side is the main character and the other side is flipped (even the letters are backwards). I use that side.

The DVD comes out May 17th (long way sad ) but there will be 2 editions. I'm getting the Special Collector's Edition - Uncensored and Unrated.

Red Superfly
Was it just me that found EVERY line to be funny?

Even when they were being "serious", you could tell the humour was there.

Even the "what does it have to do with me?" line was funny. The way Trey Parker manages to deliver every line with such satire, taking the piss out of every American blockbuster ever made.

The plastic surgery had to be the single most funniest scene in the entire film, for me and my friends. We kept chuckling about just that scene a lot afterwards.

I thought the puppets were great. The way Gary gets drunk and is stumbling all over the place, hitting his head on the counter and knocking stuff over was awesome.

I bet the makers had the best fun ever making that film.

WindDancer
The Special Collectors Edition will be uncensored and unrated? hmm...I guess I'll wait for it too.

StinkFist462
doesnt that have like extended sex scene ?

Myth
Yes. I hear it shows the positions longer and as Trey said, "a few extra special positions that really show that you love the other." I guessed rim job and I found out today that I was right. If you watch the video I posted in OTF it shows a quick flash of it
http://www.cannibalthemusical.net/ta/america.htm
I heard they put them in knowing they would get cut but they just wanted to make the people who rate the crap see the whole scene. I'm also guessing it will have the cut scene of Bush and Kerry.

Myth
More specifically it shows it when it says "So lick my butt..."

ladygrim
