Considering it's been on the air for over two and a half decades, Trey Parker and Matt Stone South Park The company had to adapt to stay fresh. And in many ways, it has succeeded. Examples of how it has adapted include: 2021 Deal with Paramount+ to Produce 14 FilmsHowever, Trey and Matt rejected the idea of these being movies, which is fair considering they are more like extended episodes than an actual story. South Park Movie from 1999.
We're now halfway through the seven “films” that have been released, so what better time to rank them? Just note that this list will only include the special films that were released after the deal was made. So, there's no better time to rank them. Pandemic specific or South Park Vaccination Specials Here because, first, they're just really long episodes (together they make up the 24th season), and second, they were released before the Paramount+ deal.
7 (Not suitable for children)
If there’s one thing that’s ripe for parody these days, it’s the combination of OnlyFans and social media influencers. They’re both semi-lucrative professions that are completely devoid of any noticeable skill or talent. Social media influencers are at the forefront, as the kids of South Park become obsessed with a sugary drink called Cred.
Penalty and foul
The Cred stuff doesn't quite work out, so the episode relies on a subplot. And since Randy is driving this subplot by making endless OnlyFans videos (which, of course, aren't that profitable), there's at least a recurring joke that works.
The two plots intertwine with an indictment of the power of social media influencers, and how young people, in particular, can be influenced by whatever they have to say (or sell) that day. It’s a decent point, but for a special program it chose two ideal targets, South Park (not suitable for children) It's the group's biggest disappointment yet.
6 Join the Panderverse
Join the Panderverse The show is primarily about “forced awakening,” especially when it comes to Disney. Classic works are remade from the dead and given a modern “woke” feel in ways that do nothing to really advance the material. It’s all an attempt to reach a larger audience. Or as one skeptic (who’s not entirely wrong) might say, play it safe. Like some of the other specials, the show is dominated by Cartman, who goes through a portal to a different world where he and his counterparts are women in their 30s and ethnically diverse.
Scheme B before Scheme A
This is the main plot, and it rarely works. Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy's portrayal of Cartman's character and body, in particular, is a bit confusing. What works is a B plan, at least for a while.Randy Marsh tries to find a repair technician, but realizes that their prices have skyrocketed because their skills are more marketable than ever.
These days, people are more likely to perform a TikTok dance than learn a practical skill. It’s a joke (is it a joke?) that only ends at the end of the hour, but because it’s so subtle, it’s enough to make people laugh. Join the Panderverse Worth watching at least once.
5 Post-Covid: Covid Returns
South Park I have always been affected by events in the real world, and increasingly so over time. Post Covid And to complete it Covid ReturnsBoth films were released in 2021, at the height of the pandemic. For a comedy released in a bleak time, it doesn’t really reach the level of being funny. After all, the film deals with the death of Stan’s sister, Shelly, and their mother’s subsequent suicide.
The first part was better.
All things related to the future that have succeeded in Post Covid It gets old in Covid Returnsexcept perhaps for the notion that all doorbells are just Trey Parker singing about how futuristic doorbells will sing. This is especially true of Amazon's Alexas, which were somewhat unsuccessful in the first film and only became more prevalent in the second.
One thing he has that Post Covid It wasn't Potters. First, it was right for his parents to abandon him. Second, as far as money was concerned, Putting him in an institution selling ridiculous NFTs is a solid joke, As is the result of the two parts where Cartman was a screaming, homeless, angry, and more alcoholic man.
4 Live Stream Wars Part 2
The best part of Live Stream Wars Part 2 (Outside of Randy coming to terms with the fact that his personality has changed so much that it has become unrecognizable) It could be said that this is the beginning, when a reporter commented on a dismissed court case saying: “Once again, streaming services have made everything bad.” She's bold like that. South Park It should be, considering that the short film is the direct result of an agreement with the streaming service.
There's also a gentle swipe at famous cryptocurrency advocates like Matt Damon, who eats pasta made of urine instead of advocating for a fictional currency that will bankrupt people and not roll in the towel. The eleventh ocean money.
At least it's still funny to see ManBearPig in a suit.
but, in the end, Live Stream Wars Part 2 It's another case of a “movie” failing to end on a satisfying note.The disappearance of Tolkien's father at the end of Part I remains a major part of Part II, and is not particularly interesting. However, Part Two He kills Bey Bey, a character who first appeared in season 13 and then stayed out of the spotlight for a decade… and the randomness of that (he being the big bad in the specials) is hilarious.
3 Post Covid
Focus on adult versions of fourth graders, South Park: Post-Covid It's the first of 14 special games. Given the time jump, it's enough to stand out from the rest. But considering that, He didn't do it. It may take 40 years for the COVID-19 pandemic to subside, a special episode that played better in 2021 than it does now.
“Her name is Yentl.”
However, there are some things that still work. Her vision of the future is so funny.As is his vision of the boys turned into men. Kenny's face remains covered, with only a shaggy beard, Stan remains forever depressed, Kyle remains somewhat of a glue, and Cartman is, well, a rabbi. Of course, Cartman's part is the most surprising and undoubtedly the highlight of the film. Post Covid.
2 The end of obesity
The end of obesity This short is great for Cartman, more than anyone else. It's about Ozempic, who becomes an option for him, and instead of dreaming about how he can improve the length and quality of his life, he imagines how he can make fun of everyone without fear of punishment. In his mind, the only thing they can do to him in return is make fun of his weight. It's a fascinating look at his complete detachment from reality. In terms of how his behavior affects others…and his complete inconsistency in this regard.
Only the third chapter is completely weak.
The best part of The end of obesityBut what is more is the devastation of the US health system. Given the magnitude of the catastrophe this has caused, It's an easy target, but then again South Park He is absolutely right..
The boys walk into the insurance agency and are greeted warmly and with smiles. But once the boys determine that they Needs Something of an agency rather than a desire for it. pays For something, the warmth disappears and they are assigned to a slower sloth position. This helps. The end of obesity I feel closer to an episode from the Middle Ages (aka seasons 8-13) than any other special. And since that era was probably the last full episode, that's a good thing.
However, once Kyle and Butters start producing their own semaglutides, and the sugar industry sends all of its breakfast cereal mascots after them, The special gets a little silly for its own good..
1 Live Stream Wars
What makes the first part of Live Stream Wars The winner is commenting on artists who make content for multiple streaming services, and how that inevitably leads to a decrease in quality. This is not inApplies to South ParkIt seems that Trey and Matt realize this. It's also the best use of ManBearPig since Fantasy land Trilogy.
The first part continues to be better than the second.
Making Randy Karen a joke is just a gag that works the first few times, and thankfully, it's never believable enough to be annoying. Plus, having Cartman worm his way into the boat-building job the other boys are doing by pretending his mom needs surgery (in reality, he wants her to get breast implants so they can move out of the closed hot dog joint they used to work at) is totally in keeping with the character's personality, as is what it leads to.
