Team America: World Police - 60 Minutes - Trey Parker & Matt Stone 2004 Behind The Scene and some stuff about South Park #teamamerica #treyparker #mattstone

@d b Understanding that everyone is broken, egotistical, flawed, and in a way evil can result in two things, usually a combination. Depression and nihilism or acceptance(as in looking past it) and humor to cope. You quickly see this in comedians, they generally aren't happy-go-lucky people with a positive outlook. The Joker is a fictitious example of these two outlooks, he isn't always laughing and "pranking" because he is happy and optimistic. He does what he does and acts like he does because he is a cynic. This is also one of the reasons he is such a good counterpart for batman, who himself is also a cynic but one who faces the severity of the human condition stoically as opposed to flippantly.
You guys are absolute morons. The job of an interviewer in this situation is to tee them up with a chance to respond to the obvious rhetoric. She's not doing it to attack them. She's doing it to give them a chance to respond to the most common criticism. She's not there to make you feel better about yourself as the viewer, idiots. She's there to echo idiot viewers.
The great thing about Trey and Matt is that they are well informed and extremely intelligent guys. Sure they got a dirty sense of humor, but their analytical skills are unreal, and when they combine their dirty sense of humor with their amazing ability to understand and analyze, they literally just shit gold lol
Joseph Rogers, you can largely thank philosopher Alan Watts for that, who Trey grew up on listening to his dad’s audio recordings. Watts was a self-described ‘spiritual entertainer’ who played with the very deepest ideas about life and existence but always had this attitude of saying ‘come off it’ when anyone took it too seriously. I see recurring signs of Watts in many of the episodes
I was 15 when this film came out and went to see it with my dad at a military base in England (he was a government worker and we lived there at the time). The theater was mostly empty, and during the opening Paris sequence, we were laughing so hard we were crying... And NO ONE else was laughing. Still one of the best memories. This movie was far ahead of its time.
Snuck in to see it with a friend on opening day. We were in 8th grade. I remember we laughed so hard the whole time we barely heard any dialogue. One of the only times I have laughed so hard at a movie.
@@sadviolinproductions391 If you think journalists in the major media are asking questions for the "mainstream audience" you are seriously misguided. Journalists ask questions to steer public opinion in the direction they wish. They do this through the types of questions asked, tone used, phrasing, and their response to any answer given.
@@kennethfharkin You are right that all media outlets have an agenda, som more biased than others, however that is not what I'm refering to at all, and that is not what it is about in this case. My point is that when journalists sometimes seem to asks "stupid" questions it most often isn't because that they're just stupid but often because that their job is to reflect on what the viewers might not get or might be confused about, especially when it is a mainstream tv-show such as this, and then ask the questions that the viewers may have. So all I'm saying is; please just think for 2 sec before calling people stupid
@@sadviolinproductions391 no mate, she is the mainstream. she got the job because she has mainstream views. she genuinely doesnt understand something unless everyone else already understands it.
For those criticizing the interviewer, you have to think who the audience is that watches 60 Minutes. This is not an audience used to deliberately transgressive, offensive humor. She presented her subjects in a genuine and positive light, and made their work seem interesting and appealing. She did a fine job, and Team America is one of the greatest satires ever made.
It's quite bizarre how you're so obsessed with groups , if somebody watches a different channel you almost act as if they're from a different species not your own countrymen
"Their unusual way of thinking." They're actually not that unusual. If they were, people wouldn't relate to their humor and concepts as much as they do.
There were tons of guys in my Army unit who loved this movie. We would sing "American, FUCK YEAH!" before going out on a convoy. It was fucking hilarious.
@@IlliniDog01 oh trust. Any of us who blast this in America ducking love how hilarious this song is. There is some people who don’t see the satire and they’re probably just like the Americans portrayed in this hilarious film and on South Park 😂
And that's why you're a soldier because you're not intelligent enough to know this movie was taking the piss out of you and the destruction that you people cause to sell military equipment nothing to do with saving the world you can't win a war you just prolonged them to make money and the fact that you don't understand that is why you're the one sacrificing your lives for big Business. A famous Australian once said war was invented the teach Americans geography
That honestly sounds amazing. I wish I would have seen both South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and Team America: World Police in theaters. I bet it was an amazing experience. I wish they’d make another theatrical film.
Agreed. I had zero interest in seeing Team America. I was a huge fan of South Park from the beginning, Team America came out within 5-6 years of South Park's first appearance on TV but I thought the idea of using string puppets for an entire feature length movie was absolutely ridiculous. I got "stuck" watching on a snowboarding trip when we got snowed in and had to stay in cabin for an entire day. My friends and I laughed from beginning to end. I'll happily admit, it was the farthest off I've ever been after judging something by its cover. It is a work of pure genius, heck, just the original soundtrack could easily stand alone as great art.
She is supposed to be a reflection of the audience that may not like or are unsure of Matt and Trey. This was Viacom low-key promoting the movie, without having to condone it.
@@stankfanger1366 that's a brave comment my friend. The fact that you lost your sense of smell is crutial to my comment. Well said good sir, well said.
They didn't win her over at the end. Her job is to make the audience doubt their morality. She is tactful and clever. You think they won her over because Matt and Trey are unstumpable. Her tricks had no effect on them, and they radiate positivity despite her strange apparent agenda. This positivity, along with her tact, is what makes some of us feel she has been "won over." But she is just doing her job, as I described.
rockdrummer86 OMFG that would be beyond absolutely fucking amazing to see them do another movie like this. There’s no way they’d do another though. They should do one that’s cgi but same style even show the strings so it still looks like it’s made with puppets
"Politacally incorrect"....nah I once heard an interviewer say south park is like a mirror being show to the face of America an showing how ugly the county can be. I think that's more of an accurate portrayal.
It's kind of the job of the interviewer. They put on the pressure to help show the public the true nature of the interviewees. You can't know who someone really is until you see them under pressure.
I watched "Team America" once or twice a number of years ago. After watching this interview, I want to see it again. I think it might be one of those films you can watch a number of times and enjoy it more the next time you watch it.
When it came out, a friend asked me to go see it and I didn't take it seriously. He said the theater was packed and everyone laughed their asses off. I saw it later on DVD and kicked myself in the ass! Funniest ever!
I've said for the longest time that South Park is some of the most biting and wicked satire on the face of the planet at the moment. But the ironic thing is, a lot of the people that watch it don't get what they're saying. Kinda like the interview lady.
You’re right, sadly a lot of people don’t understand the depth of their humor and they just laugh at it because they think it’s being offensive for offensive sake. As if that’s the comedy. When in actuality they’re usually trying to communicate a message in each episode to show how twisted the world and people can be with the way we think and behave. They’re honestly brilliant dudes.
I agree with their statement about children and society making them better. I'm soooo tired of some people's speech: "Children are more intelligents than adults! Society and adulthood corrupt every human being!" But the values of sharing, compassion, respect, tolerance...are not innate. They need to be acquired during childhood in order to function in society. A person who never is confronted to learn these values can only be an asshole.
+milla07 i agree with it mostly, but i think where i'd differ is that i don't necessarily think that kids are evil little self-centered jerks. i feel like they're just blank slates that we project ideals onto. kids can be really mean and really self-centered but they're not doing it on purpose, they're just trying to understand things. they have no filter at that age. so, where i'd agree is that it's important for society to impose good morality on them before some evil shit makes its way into their easily programmable brains
Sadly though stupid parents would rather have the internet and the American government raise their children and look what's happening. Thanks to the internet we now have Australian kids going around stabbing each other and it's been happening on an industrial scale
This is wild. I've watched several Trey Parker and Matt Stone interviews recently spread across 30 years of their careers and they've always answered the same questions in the exact same way everytime. It's almost like they are trolling just from the interviews they do.
2004: *matt and trey create controversial content and are shit on left and right* 2011: *Matt and Trey create controversial content and it is heralded as one if the best Broadway musicals ever written*
People don't realise it but often a well chosen jester is the smartest person in the room by a country mile. They cut through the bullshit like a hot knife through butter.
3:27 “We try to tell wholesome stories, we just-“ “We just can’t do it” Hahahaha this has been their whole shtick when interviewers try to corner with the ‘artist responsibility’ questions
it is interesting how time crunches and pressure can often bring the best comedy out. it's the most spontaneous because it's completely spontaneous in the writing process, so in execution it feels just as spontaneous and creative.
So with the logic that creative intelligent people are stoners then uncreative not intelligent people are not stoners so when you interview a boring person you going to say I hear you are not a stoner and wait for the response, stereotypes are riddled with preconceived ideas
Yeah, I'd have to say in my personal experience, your average stoner tends to have little/no creativity or intelligence and just laugh at the dumbest shit.
Twenty three seasons now BEEAATCH! And they're no less funny...I'm in my late 50's and this cartoon kills me...The Tegridy farms episodes are not their best work, but there was some good side stories mixed in...
@@natelarouge7620 Exactly! I don't agree with their personal politics but, the way they show the stereotypes...The Band in China was one of their most brilliant episodes! ...Randy at the Chinese airport customs...:D...I'm laughing now thinking of it...Then, PLUS, they took on Mickey Mouse and Disney in the same episode! ! DUDE! RIGHT? Randy is being written way funnier now and Of course Cartman...Crackbaby Athletic Assoc...Oh, man...Cartman at his best!
Calling them lazy and slacker South Park is one of the most consistently entertaining and relevant shows, and too add too that team America made 19 million in profit, these two are comedy greats
"...they collaborated on a student film about cannibalism. Naturally, it was a musical." I had to stop the video until the cackles subsided into giggles!
The most underrated movie of all time (for obvious reason).. star studded cast complete with the best actor in the world Alec Baldwin.. and a close second Maaaaatt Daaaaeemon
06:17 "Slacker, stoner" "We work really hard. We write every episode, direct, and edit everything because we care" I wish they would cut back to her smug face after she realized they work harder than she does.
She doesn't call them that, she talking about their image in general. Mind you in context, they just said they often procrastinate, and surprise people when they admit to not using marijuana. She's saying "That's what people perceive you guys as" not insulting them with the label.
