Very cool interview. I loved the Conan clip - one of the best and funniest moments in the film. Too bad a REAL bootleg copy wouldn't be of the same quality that they showed...;( I WANT MY VHS (or DVD) SOUTH PARK NOW!!!!

. "The rumors going around are great--that we had to cut out two minutes," says Parker. "It's absolutely not true. There is no previous version of this movie that exists that is dirtier. This is the raunchiest it ever was.

"And the reason for that," Parker goes on, "is really the greatest story about the whole thing. The first time we submitted it, the MPAA gave it an NC-17, listing certain things that we had to change. It made us really angry, because some of the things they wanted us to change were so ridiculous. So just to piss them off, we made them 10 times worse and five times longer--just knowing that they'd have to sit there and watch it again. We were just stoked on that. And we submitted it, going `Ha ha, now they're going to have to watch this,' and they sent it back with a little thing saying `Thank you, that's much better.' I'm not kidding."

Heh, this is off-topic, but I had a similar experience. My friend and I were doing original music for a Shakespeare Festival. The play was Romeo & Juliet, directed by Kris Tabori. Monday tech Night was going horibly. At 2 AM we got to the lighting and music for when Roemo breaks into Juliet's tomb. We run the cue, a slow flute melody (& notes) in G over an A-flat pedal. Tabori says, "Too dark." We thought, "What the hell does he want, the theme from Leave It To Beaver???" So we decided to not change the cue and to just let it ride. Next night is Dress Rehearsal. We asked Kris if he like the "new cue." He said, "Much better." Hollywood types....

Sadly i missed the show, i couldnt be home to watch it, anywhere i can get it off the net that someone knows of? :(
