South Park: Bigger News

Longer & Uncut,South Park,Films

The Oscar-nominated musical based on the hit Trey Parker-Matt Stone show was released June 30, 1999.

I’ll never forget where I was June 30, 1999. That was the night I made the unfortunate decision to see Will Smith ’s Wild Wild West on its opening night— while on a screen next door, one of my soon-to-be favorite movies had also just been released. Smith’s movie was terrible, but the next night, I righted that wrong and saw South Park: Bigger , Longer & Uncut, and everything has been better from that moment on.

That’s the whole point. But in 2024, the fact it might be even more offensive seems sadly prophetic. Parker and Stone saw what censorship and fear of language might do to us. And while the United States never declared war on Canada over the issue like it does in the movie, at times it certainly feels like we’re now at war with ourselves for that reason. That got me thinking a little deeper.
