.....all die in Matt Parker and Trey Stone's new movie Team America. Not for the faint of heart or highly sensitive, Team America is a crude, audacious, highly offensive and most importantly politically incorrect movie. The filmakers are closet libertarians who lean right. The key is that they are not percieved as political and they are extremely popular with the youth vote. They will attack the right and the left, but they really make liberals look foolish. I think this will gross millions and the left is starting to get pissed.

Sean Penn wrote Parker and Stone an open hate mail letter. Hell any movie that lets me watch puppets of American soldiers kill Susan Sarandon, Alec Baldwin and Janeane Garofalo that might get some of the youth vote to rethink Michale Moore cant be a bad thing.

Ah, this takes me back to my youth, the days of Fireball XL-5 and the Thunderbirds!! I have to see it!

Wouldn't a Michael Moore marionette need three people to operate it's collosal bulk?

I'd rather spend time with a libertarian than a liberal. They are consistent in their opinions. The only problem is that libertarians forget that while all human beings are flawed --- some are flawed with socially irresponsibility. The socially irresponsible are not mature enough to live in a true libertarian society.

I guess I might go see this movie after all. My boycott of the loudmouth liberals has reduced my movie selection to the old black and whites. Most of these actors are dead so their opinions can't offend me.

I'd rather watch Jimmy Stewart over Sean Penn any day.

While I have no deathwish for Americas elitist seditious class, total discreditation and humiliation would be satisfactory.

Well, I saw it, and I was laughing so hard I could hardly see the screen. First and foremost, it's a parody of every Bruckheimer film ever made (some of the dialog is lifted intact from "Pearl Harbor" and "Armageddon"), but when it turns to Hollywood liberals, it is merciless. After this, you will not be able to listen to Matt Damon or Alec Baldwin and not snicker.

It also contains the rudest and most scatalogical, yet somehow appropriate, explanations of America's foreign policy. You'll know it when you see it.

I told my wife that this movie just might be the October surprise. Funny as hell, but definitely not for the faint of heart.

Saying "harpooned" and "Michael Moore" in the same context seems apropos.

"Michael Moore": the modern "great white whale".
