Were all the times they’ve ripped on their movie Baseketball. As a kid my favorite show was south park and favorite movie was Baseketball and no one gave the movie any love and it pissed me off.

In my mind baseketball was on the same comedy level as dumb and dumber, caddy shack, and 20 years a slave. I thought at least the stars of my favorite movie would defend the movie but instead matt and trey have trashed it not only on their show but also in interviews. I felt abandoned.

Im in my thirties and I’m scared to rewatch the move in case even I think it sucks now. I’m all baseketball has left which is pretty pathetic. A thirty year old on reddit. That’s all that movie has to show for itself at this point.

My point is every time they trash it on their show I’m reminded of all this.

    South Park laughs about every single thing in this world, especially religion, politics and “elders”. But will you abandon your faith, political views or age? …well, you can, but obviously not only because of a humor, jokes or catholic love for little boys.

    The self-important, woe-is-me energy it takes to assert that you are the ONLY person left alive who likes Baseketball is breathtaking

      “This isn’t about the $18 ticket money anymore, this is about being able to hold bad filmmakers responsible. This is just like when we got our money back for BASEketball!”

    Is 20 years a slave the sequel to 12 years a slave? And they made it a comedy? Sounds interesting, I’ll have to check it out.

    It’s Matt and Tre. Self deprecation is pretty much all they’ve got. If you ask them, they won’t say South Park is any good either. They’re like “It’s a stupid show we made out of construction paper and has crappy voice acting!”

    For the love of Giant Flying Spaghetti Monster, they literally have a disclaimer at the beginning of every episode that says “…This show should not be watched by anyone.”

    I honestly like it when they dog on themselves, even as a fan of Baseketball. If they’re going to dish it out to everyone in Hollywood it’s only fair that they’re willing to turn that around on themselves.

    I feel sort of similar when Trey and Matt dismiss all of South Park Season 3 and earlier. Yeah sure it was fuckin stupid but it was unique to TV at the time, part of the transition from 90’s to 00’s and it’s why I started watching it. Issac Hayes as Chef? Kenny dying? It was all unique and funny back then.

    And a lot of the SP since then is pretty crappy sometimes even if overall the show has staying power

    Trey in particular seems to have a hard time knowing whether something is good or crap. Apparently he almost pulled the plug on several good episodes inc the Warcraft one. And yet Tegridy got a whole season
