As an adult, I have no need to see a compromised version of this film and I am glad to see Matt and Trey resist the corporate armtwisting to tone it down for younger audiences.
But Matt and Trey, if you're reading this, for the sake of the kids, RERELEASE IT AS A PG-13 VERSION sometime soon, so those not old enough to see an 'R'-rated film can enjoy the full theatre experience of it without waiting for Dad to rent it for them at the video store. It'll also be a wise business decision to expand the audience to include the kiddies.

Why the hell should they do that? There are some things worth waiting for in life. If the kids can't wait until they're older, then they shouldn't watch it. Why does everything in the world have to be diluted for children? They can wait until they're 17 -- just like you have to wait until you're 21 to gamble or to drink....
I REALLY enjoyed the movie. It's one of the few movies that I laughed my assed off at. If they reduced it to a PG-13 movie, it would probably only be 30 minutes and not be funny at all. If they bleeped the expletives out, it wouldn't be the same.

I'm not suggesting abolishing the 'R' version, but making a version that is more accessible to younger audiences, with the intent of spreading the film's underlying message and social satire to them as well.
How's this for a legal loophole? Blank out only the middle vowel of each expletive, leaving it obvious what the intended word really is, for example, "f-ck", "sh-t", "ass-le", etc. In a way, this would be another good way to get around, while making a blatant mockery of, the censorship system.
Too bad they don't have double features anymore. When I was eleven I wanted to see Saturday Night Fever. That was an R rated movie. But a few months after it was released it was playing with PG rated film. So I bought ticket for the PG film and got to see both films. I used to do that a lot back then.
C'mon guys South Park will be out on video in four or five months. If you want to listen to the album a bunch o' people are serving it at www.shoutcast.com . Look in the comedy section.

So you could see it next Wednesday on Comedy Central.
Until you see the film you won't realize there is seriously NO WAY they could cut it down. And the entire plot is about censorship, so it would be throwing out the baby with the bathwater. Critics have already said "this will never be on network TV."

You know, I said the very same thing after seeing the movie yesterday for the third time :)
But I also felt the same way back in the 1970s when Rocky Horror came out. Back then, I just couldn't imagine RHPS ever, EVER making it to television. Amazing how times change, eh?

Yet, when Comedy Central runs RHPS, they obscure the genitals on the statue of David in Dr. Frank-N-Furter's lab...I thought that was pretty sad...

And yet, it could probably run virtually unedited (after 11pm) on the CBC, BBC or Australia's Network Nine...
It could run in Holland anytime I think. They use words like "fuck" and "shit" even in the daytime previews for movies and show pornography on commercial TV after 10pm...lol
Puritanical America is where it can't be shown, except maybe on payperview.

Unfortunately, for those of us that have seen the film, the MPAA approved PG-13 version would only be 1 minute long.

Er - can't they just go see the movie with their "parent or guardian?" What's the big deal?
