With the biggest night in politics behind us, South Park is more than happy to bring a little bit of funny to the more serious tone of the nation. This week’s episode, “Obama Wins!”, is the first episode in quite a while to lampoon the elections, the candidate, and predict the winner all at the same time. [...]

There’s not much to say about this week’s episode of South Park other than that it was pretty bad. I can usually find something redeeming in most episodes of the show, even during some of its worst moments from the previous few seasons, but for the sake of me I just couldn’t find anything even [...]

South Park really hit the nail on the head this week with an episode that was both relevant and classically humorous, tackling the ridiculous nature of home security advertising while also throwing in a healthy dose of subtle film references and outrageous scenes. Even [...]

Wow. That’s all I can really say after just finishing South Park’s second episode since hiatus. I don’t mean wow as in “that was an unbelievable episode,” and I definitely don’t mean it as in “damn, that sucked!”. Really, my “wow” is a statement of confusion in regards to what I just witnessed. The show [...]

Before South Park took a mid-season hiatus a few months ago, things were looking pretty good for the show. After the previously mediocre season, the show was getting back to its roots and focusing more on the characters and the town itself without having to rely on heavy current popular culture references. Well, it seems [...]

The Master is a powerful force of cinema that needs, even demands, the utmost attention. Director Paul Thomas Anderson – who has directed some of the boldest and most engaging works in the past two decades, such as There Will Be Blood, Boogie Nights, and Magnolia – recreates a stunning image of the Post-WWII era [...]
