America...FUCK YEAH!
Listen, I'm tired of people telling me they don't think "South Park humor" is funny. Forget about Mr. Hanky and the fart jokes. You're thinking of the first two (far inferior) seasons of South Park. Get over that shit and live in the now. South Park is easily one of the smartest political and social satires of all time and if you don't agree, then you don't know shit about shit.
Team America, a movie shot entirely with puppets, was released in the middle of the Bush era and provides a perfect satirical snapshot of the time. It completely annihilates current events occurring of the day including:
1) America policing the world looking for "terrorists" following the 9/11 attacks in spite of the rest of the world hating our fucking guts.
2) Celebrities sticking their noses into the world of politics in spite of the fact that they're fucking clowns and should stick to entertaining us like the good little monkeys that they are.
3) Shitty Jerry Bruckheimer produced action movies that sucked dick in spite of their lucrative budgets and overpaid cast of asshole celebrities.
All these things needed to be spoofed and Trey Parker and Matt Stone bent these issues over and fucked the shit out of them...with puppets.
There are a few things that are absolutely LEGENDARY in this flick. The first is the musical score. I don't often buy movie soundtracks, but this one is a must have. These are the funniest songs ever included in any film...EVER! Everyone has AIDS? America...FUCK YEAH? Montage? But the single greatest song has to be Pearl Harbor Sucked and I Miss You. The song's sole purpose is to point out how badly the movie, Pearl Harbor, sucked and it hits the nail right on the 'ole noggin. FUCK YOU, MICHAEL BAY! Stick to your shitty transforming robots with random explosions movies. Leave historical action movies to someone with actual skills.
The next LEGENDARY aspect of this film (I dare you to argue this point with me) is the puppet sex scene, which is, by far, the most inappropriate yet hilarious scene ever filmed. When that guy puppet is pile driving the chick puppet I nearly pissed my fucking pants. Of course, then Gary pisses on Lisa's face, followed by Lisa shitting on Gary's face. Try not to bust a nut laughing when you watch it...I dare you!
So even if you don't "get" South Park (because you're too stupid), that shouldn't change the fact that this is a hilarious movie...starring puppets. The puppets alone make it EPIC, but then you throw in some great political satire and celebrities getting mutilated and killed and you've got yourself an underrated classic on your hands.
Why It's Awesome: Are you serious...I just...I just explained that to you (Zoolander).

Matt Damon: Maaatt...Damon! (sounding fucking retarded)
