What...no sequel?

I viewed this movie again today.....I hadn't seen it in ten years. Sad that we're still dealing with terrorism now...the movie really hasn't aged.

Trey and Matt were pretty open about not enjoying the experience of making this movie ... apparently it was a logistical nightmare

So, while I agree with your post and think this film is a masterpiece, I highly doubt we'll ever get a sequel ... in the same format, at least

They could hire someone else to do the puppets and provide the voices themselves. We need a sequel.

It is more current than ever, following along with the advice the man at the bar gave to
Gary, regarding dicks preventing the a__holes from covering everything in S? Who could have predicted that Weiner's emails would be the weak link that broke it all open? Amazing! LOL

This result reminds me of Team American the movie by the South Park guys. That movie showed was an exaggeration of the smugness of the left and the celebrity and media culture that presumes to speak for everyone. Susan Sarandon and Alec Baldwin even have key roles.

That no newspaper endorsed Trump and that so many "mainstream" media entities endorsed Clinton and painted Trump as the clown (he is of course) surely pissed off a lot of voters and motivated them. Also he puts people in a trance and his voters liked that crazy rhetoric.

Not sure what Clinton herself did wrong. FBI surely *beep* her in the end though.

If Matt and Trey have any balls left, I'd say it's definitely time for a sequel.

I'd imagine that Team America would be split in half and fighting each other at this point, because America is so hoplessly divided and polarized, and not united in a common goal like fighting outside terrorism anymore. I imagine something similar to 'Captain America: Civil War,' where you have this super team of heroes torn in half by ideology. The absurdity of the extreme Left and the extreme Right is an endless well of comedic material, and these guys could make it magic.

They should fucking do this.

This is actually a good idea and would justify a sequel, rather than rehashing what they've already done before. Considering how weak the South Park specials have been (to me at least), Trey and Matt should take a break from that universe and go back to the bizarro-yet-sadly-realistic world of Team America.

I got bored with South Park almost a decade ago. I don't think I've watched a full season since 2013ish. I've been meaning to catch up on it though. Definitely would like to see what they did with the Trump presidency.

My uncle and I have talked about this many times, and he has pointed out that Trey and Matt have said that they did not enjoy making Team America in the first place because maneuvering the puppets was a huge pain in the ass.

I know they like to do everything themselves, but what they could do is hire people to do the puppets, while they fill in the puppets’ facial expressions and voices themselves.
