I just saw 'Team America' last night (unrated version).....

...OH MY FRICKING GAWD!!!!!!

I felt so dirty watching those marrionettes do THAT!!! Hell humans don't do that in a movie.

And the songs were fucking hiliarious! I loved the song where they missed someone so much but not as much as 'Pearl Harbor' sucks

But overall it was funny as hell even though I am a big fan of most of those actors they spoofed in the movie (And I love Michael Moore). But Stone & Parker did it so over the top that I was even laughing my ass off!

1. The joy of being a dick was also part of Nazi propaganda.

I rented it last week with a free coupon. It's funny in that it shows how ridiculous right wing propaganda can be. I'm sure that in the future it will be shown as an example of the American mind at this time. If Stone & Parker like war so much, they should enlist. The puppet fights were funny too. Here's a link to some examples of Nazi humor.

4. Boy, them Nazis were just a barrel of laughs

Almost as funny as those Stalinists. Thanks for the link, I bookmarked it for future use. Rush is amusing in the same way. "Boy, you know what I hate about those feminazis? They're feminists and nazis. Hahahaha."

6. Uh...

That movie mocks both sides...did you not get that?

7. I don't buy that "We mock both sides" stuff.

Though Parker & Stone aren't an official part of the right wing media machine, they do promote the bad boy appeal of that ideology. Except for their roasting of Mel Gibson, their insult, and misrepresentation fall mostly on the enemies of the movement that calls itself conservative. I'm not going to give them a pass on that.

2. Do we know each other?

I just saw it last night for the first time, too.

Love that it pokes fun at both sides of the isle.

Also pokes fun at many things about those kid adventure series shows. Things like the Team America Helicopter keeping pace with the supersonic looking Team America Jet.

Funny flick.

5. That's weird...me too

I just watched it also for the first time...bizarre. :tinfoilhat:

3. A very funny movie, IMHO

There is nothing funnier than marionettes, in my book, especially when they are in a fistfight. And I can't think about "the signal" without laughing, regardless of where I am at the time. :rofl:

8. It was the most uncomfortable movie i have seen in a long time. I

don't know why I didn't walk out.
