Bigger, Longer, and Uncut

I just realized that this year is the tenth anniversary of the release of the South Park movie. I've been celebrating by listening to the sound track constantly.

This will probably be old news to most of you, but I only found this recently. During the movie making process, the MPAA gave some input so the movie would not gain the dreaded NC-17 rating (causing movie theaters not to show it). This is the memo that Matt Stone (one of the creators of South Park) sent to the MPAA, updating them on their progress:



Or the version you can actually read:

Here is our new cut of the South Park movie to submit to the MPAA. I wanted to tell you exactly what notes we did and did not address.

1. We left in both the "fisting" and the "rimjob" references in the counselor's office scene. We did cut the word "hole" from "asshole" as per our conversation.

2. We took out the entire "God has fucked me in the ass so many times..." It is gone.

3. Although it is not animated yet, we put a new storyboard in for clarification in the scene with Saddam Hussein's penis. The intent now is that you never see Saddam's real penis, he in fact is using dildos both times.

4. We have the shot animated that reveals the fact that Winona is not shooting ping-pong balls from her vagina. She is, in fact, hitting the balls with a ping-pong paddle.

5. We took out the only reference to "cum-sucking ass" in the film. It was in the counselor's office and we took it out.

6. We left in the scenes with Cartman's mom and the horse as per our conversation. This is the one joke we really want to fight for.

P.S. This is my favorite memo ever.

This is my favorite memo ever as well.
