Haven't been keeping up on this lately. I know 'Family First' is scheduled to air very soon, but what have Trey & Matt said (publically or "off the record") about a 2nd movie? General trend in Hollywood is if your movie kicks ass at the box office (which theirs did, don't forget that Academy Award nomination) that you make a sequal.
Any word on this?

The important quote being: "Unfortunately, they aren't keen on a South Park movie sequel."
Also Matt & Trey lambasted Paramount all through out the Playboy article back in June.
http://spi.spsqua.com/creators/playboy_interview.htm Trey: "In their (Paramount's) eyes, a movie couldn't make enough money to be worth it to them to work with us again. And in our eyes, they couldn't pay us enough to work with them again."
Trey: "No. I don't think I want to make another movie. TV has sane people, especially at Comedy Central. Those fuckers at movie studios are insane, and they don't give a fuck about anything but money. It's scary."

'SOUTH PARK' DUO NIX SEQUEL AFTER DEBUT NIGHTMARE Saturday,November 18,2000 By DON KAPLAN
"THE kid genuises behind last year's raunchy, animated hit "South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut," say making and marketing the movie left them so frustrated, they have zero interest in doing another.
"Sequels always suck anyway," the movie's co-creator Trey Parker told The Post. "
missy
That'd be the one I was thinking of. Of course, this won't stop the question from being asked in oh, another 30 minutes by some wanker who thinks oh gee it made sooooo much money they're bound to do another one! Bleh. People.
