Mels_Smileys45 · **Team America Vs Sean Penn -** October 11th, 2004, 09:23 AM

Trey Parker and Matt Stone (the force behind South Park) have a new film starting this week, Team America: World Police. Its causing many people to get their panties in a twist as the pair poke fun at actors and politcal views. Sean Penn is the latest to have his undies bunch up over a puppet movie.

South Park creators get poison Penn letter

President Bush isn’t the only one upset with South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone over their new puppet film, Team America: World Police.

Oscar winner Sean Penn apparently wrote an angry letter to the comedy duo after they made fun of Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs’ Vote Or Die campaign to persuade US youngsters to vote in next month’s presidential election.

He was infuriated at Stone’s theory that America might elect better leaders if lazy, apathetic voters stayed at home and didn’t bother to vote.

In the letter – said to have left the comic writers “howling with laughter” - Penn wrote: “I remember a cordial hello when you guys were beginning to be famous guys around Hollywood. I remember several times getting a few giggles out of your humour.

How much damage can you do with puppets? Sheesh.

I don't care about Sean Penn or South Park,but I am all for making fun of P Diddy.

Looks like a film I may have to end up seeing. Props to Parker and Stone!

Way to go Mr Penn. You successfully added to their marketing campaign. Sheesh! You'd think someone who has been in the industry as long as he would know when to bite and when to leave alone.

I do mind when anybody who doesn't have a child, doesn't have a child at war, or isn't or won't be in harm's way themselves, is encouraging that there's "no shame in not voting" "if you don't know what you're talking about" (Mr. Stone) without mentioning the shame of not knowing what your talking about, and encouraging people to know. You guys are talented young guys but alas, primarily young guys. It's all well to joke about me or whomever you choose. Not so well, to encourage irresponsibility that will ultimately lead to the disembowelment, mutilation, exploitation, and death of innocent people throughout the world. The vote matters to them. No one's ignorance, including a couple of hip cross-dressers, is an excuse.

Do they really cross dress? I had no idea!

No, but I'm pretty sure his ex-wife does. With strap on (ahem) tools as well I've heard. :)

tehee. I like the idea behind the campaign (Diddy's) but they've executed it horribly on MTV. DAMMIT! I want my programming uninterrupted, you fucks! ARGH!

Just saw this today. Fans of South Park MUST see this movie. I had reservations regarding the use of marrionettes, but it was flawless the way they were incorporated. Pretty much non-stop laughs all the way through and a great musical score to boot. Penn, along with the rest of the actors mocked can eat their hearts out. Parker and Stone did an awesome job on this film. I can't wait for the DVD.

ratbag · October 15th, 2004, 03:29 PM

i saw the movie and i recomend eveyone see t if just for its hilarity alone

Before going to this Movie shouldn't one consider Mr. Penn's Feelings on the Matter?
