You've definitely seen the Son of the South cast before, here's where.
This week, justice got a new name — and that name is "Sassy." A viral deepfake video was released earlier this week starring President Donald Trump sporting a new look and reporting news out of Cheyenne, Wyoming under the name "Sassy Justice."Of course, it's not actually Trump, but the deepfake work was stellar. Just a few days after the video's release, it was revealed that South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone were behind "Sassy Justice," with The Tick alum and famed impersonator Peter Serafinowicz playing the deepfake Trump. So, why did this trio go to such …
Part of the pleasures of South Park, that long-running, endlessly irreverent animated Comedy Central series from Trey Parker and Matt Stone, was seeing how quickly it turned around topical issues into new, original content (heck, they didn't call that documentary 6 Days to Air for nothing). And now, in the midst of the show's 23rd (23rd!) year on the air, those Colorado muckrakers have done it again. An hour long special about perhaps the most topical issue of our time — the coronavirus — is coming soon, with the apt name, "The Pandemic Special". The episode, much like our …
The popular attraction is set for a redesign down the road, but the process seems to have already begun.
Since its release in 2010, the stylish South Korean action-thriller The Man from Nowhere has been attractive to American filmmakers and studios. Originally directed by Lee Jeong-beom, starring Won Bin as that titular nowhere man, Dimension Films originally picked up the rights in 2012 for Shawn Christensen (Abduction) to write, before New Line announced their take in 2016. Now, a team of contemporary action maestros is attached to the project. Per the Hollywood Reporter, the John Wick team of Chad Stahelski and Derek Kolstad will produce and write, respectively, the Man from Nowhere remake for New Line. [caption …
It’s a little crazy that South Park has been on the air for over 20 years. The animated series debuted in 1997 on Comedy Central, a cable channel that few watched, but the series quickly became a nationwide sensation. Instead of fizzling out after a few years (thus bucking a TV trend), South Park has endured for two decades, largely thanks to creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Unlike most long-running TV series, Parker and Stone have always served as the show’s executive producers and showrunners. They’ve made movies and a Tony-winning Broadway musical in …
HBO Max was finally able to add South Park to its surprisingly robust library of content this week, but fans looking for a few controversial episodes may find themselves disappointed. While all 23 seasons are now available to stream on HBO Max, five episodes are not available due to their sensitive content. Per Deadline, spiking these five episodes was agreed upon in advance, so this isn’t a case of HBO Max pulling a fast one. The episodes in question controversially depict the Prophet Muhammad, which in Islamic religion is expressly forbidden. The episodes missing from HBO Max are “Super …
There are actually a few different fun idea for retheming the popular attraction.
Skydance Television has partnered with CJ ENM, the studio behind this year's Best Picture winner Parasite, and its subsidiary Studio Dragon, to develop a TV series based on the hit South Korean show Hotel Del Luna. Directed by Oh Chung-hwan and Kim Jung-hyun, and written by Hong Jeong-eun and Hong Mi-ran, Hotel Del Luna is a popular fantasy drama that aired last year in South Korea about an elite hotelier who stumbles upon a fateful event and becomes the manager of a mystical hotel that only caters to spirits at night. The new series will …
How a popular theme park attraction became based in a movie few people have seen.
Fans are petitioning Disney to rename -- but not to close -- its Disneyland and Disney World theme park attraction Splash Mountain because it was inspired by and still features imagery from the studio's notorious 1946 film Song of the South.
Song of the South will not be released on Disney+. Not even with the company's controversial disclaimer.
At the 2020 Academy Awards, history was made. Parasite, the genre-bending, class-examining, “metaphorical” masterpiece from Bong Joon Ho and his incredible cast, won the Oscars for Best International Feature Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Picture. Not only was this the first time any non-English language film won Best Picture, it was also the first time any South Korean film was honored at the Oscars in any way. If you saw Parasite, saw it get honored the hell out of at the Oscars, and are thinking to yourself, “I want more,” boy howdy am I …
