I actually enjoy waiting for the seasons to come out on DVD, because South Park is the kind of the show that has a lot in common with a can of Pringles. You can’t have just one, and season eleven is absolutely no exception.

Infidelity is an embarrassingly common plot point in cinema. What’s even more embarrassing is that it’s a common plot point in real life.

Eddie Izzard said it best: “Guns don’t kill people; people kill people, but I think the gun helps.” In cinema, particularly action and sci-fi, the one thing that’s just as memorable as the heroes and the villains, is the kind of heat they’re packin’. When you think about it, James Bond would never haven gotten [...]
