Saddam Hussein has been forced to watch South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, according to the film's co-creator Matt Stone.

The former Iraqi leader is portrayed in the movie as a homosexual who is in a relationship with the devil, and Stone claims the prisoner is being forced to watch it "repeatedly" as he is held by US Marines.

The South Park movie was banned on release in Iraq seven years ago.

Stone reveals: "I have it on pretty good information from the Marines on detail in Iraq that they showed him the movie. That's really adding insult to injury. I bet that made him really happy."

I think forcing someone to sit through animation that bad for that long is against the Geneva Convention.

[detroitdarien]

Hmmm... this might confirm the evilness of the American invasion in the deluded minds of of him and his followers.

Though a thoroughly deserved punishment, it doesn't really reflect well on our values. But we're probably way beyond winning hearts and minds at this point.

[SeanOGuano]

I wonder how Amnesty International feels about this.

[Terpfen]

What's hilarious is that when people said South Park had the worst animation ever, Terrence and Philip were created so Stone and Parker could say "no, THIS is the worst animation ever!"

Hilarious show nonetheless.

If Amnesty International falls in a forest, does anyone care?

LOL!

Now this I like.

Satan: Is sex the only thing that matters to you?

Saddam Hussein: I love you.

Ed, Edd and Eddy is the worst animation ever.........

[PsyOp]

There are some things you just don't do...

[Enterprise]

They need to make him watch Team America too!!

[darkwing104]

Got my watch set, It shouldn't take long for the whiners at Amnesty International to scream torture.

If it was me I would of forced him to watch Steel Magnolias"

[Obie Wan]

Well it's a cute story but I'd rather they quit screwing around with this guy,find him guilty and execute him !!!

"Owww!"
"Yeah, ya like that, don't ya, b***h?"

This is great. I wonder what he thought of the giant object Stan was searching for throughout the movie.

[davisfh]

Did they have his eyelids propped open ala "A Clockwork Orange's" Little Alex. Just a suggestion, you understand.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Beat ya by 8 seconds. ;-)

[fieldmarshaldj]

SP: BLU perhaps accomplished something not done in many movies... had you feeling sorry for Satan having to put up with Saddam. ;-)

The WORST animation of all time was Clutch Cargo!

[Stonewall Jackson]

A couple of years ago, when David Letterman and Ben Affleck went over to Iraq for a Christmas tour with the USO, Letterman commented that Ben had offered to give the Army a couple copies of Gigli to force the prisoners to watch, but the Army determined that this would be a violation of the Geneva Convention.

I wonder how Amnesty International feels about this.

All leftists are undoubtedly outraged by this, both of the international and national varieties.

[billhilly]

"I wonder how Amnesty International feels about this."

Perhaps more importantly, how do Ellen DeGeneris and Rosie O'Donnell feel about it?

[EQAndyBuzz]

"If it was me I would of forced him to watch Steel Magnolias""

I'd make him watch, Gigli"

[Enchante]

"The former Iraqi leader is portrayed in the movie as a homosexual who is in a relationship with the devil"

Doesn't that pretty much describe ALL of the Islamo-fascists????

[xp38]

Ah but the main question is did he Blame Canada?

[rawcatslyentist]

>"I wonder how Amnesty International feels about this."

Well just to make things square wid them. Let's cutt off his head with a dull knife. Ya know the asseptable moozy way!

[Rembrandt_fan]

Too good to be true.

[GSlob]

"There are some things you just don't do..."
Well, I'd be suspending him on a meat hook by a rib over a small fire, and then oscillating him like a pendulum in a tower clock on a Baghdad square. At the top of the hour a door would open for him to become visible, and he'd be prodded to say "cuckoo". I bet there will be crowds in the square, watching. Think what a kebab concession would bring!

[pabianice]

Lucky for Heussein that his jailors didn't have copies of "Queer Like Folk."

The WORST animation of all time was Clutch Cargo!

My vote goes to Speed Racer. The WORST excuse for animation ever!

[monkfan]

Ugh. Follow up with Congo, and he'll probably eat his own hand.

[Boiler Plate]

At least it was animated.

From the Toon Tracker site

Mr. Gillette's Synchro-Vox system was used in Clutch Cargo to combine live-action human lips with animated drawings. To make the characters speak, the lips of a live human actor were filmed and then superimposed over the motionless drawings of the character's face. To further cut costs, action was simulated using clever wiggling of the camera or the drawing itself. Walking or running was accomplished by showing the character from the waist up, to eliminate complicated leg animation. The use of real live objects, again superimposed, also helped to keep costs down. Real smoke was used for explosions and an actual balloon substituted for a bubble-gum bubble."

[tlb]

"how do Ellen DeGeneris and Rosie O'Donnell feel about it?"

I'm not sure about Rosie but on November 4, 2001, when Ellen served as hostess of the Emmy Awards-TV show, DeGeneres delivered the following line: "We're told to go on living our lives as usual, because to do otherwise is to let the terrorists win, and really, what would upset the Taliban more than a gay woman wearing a suit in front of a room full of Jews?"

So my guess is she'd be ok with it.

[sit-rep]

lmao....

[Holicheese]

You mean Greta Van Sustern?
She talks just like Clutch Cargo.

[pepperdog]

Oh no! You are truly without pity aren't you?

[gogogodzilla]

I think that somebody needs to post this on the Democratic Underground... just so we can see what their reaction will be.

I think their reactions to this will be 'extraordinarily' funny.

:-P

[samm1148]

Was that the one where they used real mouths for animated characters?

[Boiler Plate]

Yes, it was Synchro Vox. Conan O'Brien usedto use it in some of his skits.

[Boiler Plate]

Watch this

What a shame that war has been watered down to such a degree. It would be funny if it weren't so scary.

Good choice of cartoon though. I must admit

[samm1148]

Thanks! Now I remember. I was confusing Clutch Cargo with Johny Quest.
