Groundbreaking

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2015)

When the four boys see an R-rated movie featuring Canadians Terrance and Phillip, they are pronounced "corrupted", and their parents pressure the United States to wage war against Canada.
Although by now (2015) "South Park" is a marginal show and largely forgotten, it was a big deal in the late 1990s and early 2000s, reflecting back on American culture in a smart, cynical and timely manner. Often viewers would be impressed how quickly a real-world situation could be transformed into an episode.
With the film, they did this and so much more. Not only did they mock themselves for being the biggest adult cartoon of the time, but they did it as a musical, and even got nominated for a Grammy. (Did they win? No. But still.)
