Finally got around to buying this DVD...



Team America: World Police (2004)
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0372588/

Sweet Boneless Christ, I haven't laughed this hard in, like... ever!
(Being asthmatic, that can be somewhat hazardous!)

Trying to memorize the lyrics to the songs, especially We're Gonna Need a Montage (since I got that stuck in my head now!)...
http://www.lyricsbox.com/team-america-lyrics-zr57p.html

From now on, when anybody asks me "What's the signal?"



You Can't Stop the Signal!

And when Gary's predecessor dies in the field, that's >sniff< the most convincing performance I've ever seen an actor give.
You'd swear that >sniff< all life had left that >sniff< poor puppet's body.



Oh... Right... They just flipped the switch on the animatronics to "Off".
My bad.


Anyways, yeah, I realize this flick violates the "somewhat civil and in good taste" edict of this board, but...

"Montage" is such a classic they also used it in a South Park episode. Even Rocky had a montage. And it's ridiculously catchy.


Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

I know what you mean about this movie. It is the funniest movie that has been made in a long time. I understand that some people probably find it offensive, but I just think it needs to be taken as a joke. The sex scene and the vomiting scene get me everytime.

Mal gives control of the ship to Zoe...
Mal: If I'm not back in an hour, you come, and you rescue me.
Zoe: What? And risk my ship?

You should Penguin. It is truly hilarious. Wait til you see the sex scene and the vomiting scene.

BTW, it was made by the guys who did South Park if you didn't know, so if you hate South Park, I would say you wont like 'Team America: World Police'.

This was a great song - typical of the insipid pseudo-patriotic country/western crap that drives me crazy..
I laugh every time I hear it..


(part of) Freedom Isn't Free

What would you do?
If you're asked to give up your dreams for freedon?
What would you do?
If asked to make the ultimate sacrifice?

Freedom isn’t free.
It costs folks like you and me and if we don’t all chip in,
We’ll never pay that bill.
Freedom isn’t free.
No, there’s a hefty fuckin fee.
And if you don’t throw in you buck o’five, who will?

If you don’t throw in you buck o’five….
Who will? Ho, buck o’five…


MONTAGE

The hour is approaching to give
It your best – and you’ve got to
Reach your prime.

That’s when you need to put
Yourself to the test and show us
All a passage of time –

You’re gonna need a montage!
MONTAGE!

Ooh, it’s gonna take a montage!
MONTAGE!

Show a lot of things happing
At once remind everyone of
What’s going on!

And with every shot show just a
Little improvement – to show it
All would take too long!

That’s called a montage!
MONTAGE! Even Rocky had a
Montage! MONTAGE!!

I have this on DVD - quality film. Yes, it's offensive pretty much all the way through, but it's also a biting satire.

Oh, and hi-larious.
