Joe Rogan - Matt Stone & Trey Parker Are Geniuses

Like I saw Book of Mormon, that was the last time I went to a play. Yep. Unless it was like for what? Did you see Hamilton? One of my kids. Look at me. Yeah. What do you think? I thought you would have seen Hamilton. You're a cultured man. You're interested in all things. I got shit to do, man. That's good. Whatever that hour is, I got shit to do. No, it's good. I don't know. I literally know nothing about Hamilton. Yeah. I'm just joking. No, it's funny because I went into it like, what's the craze about? You know, I'm like, this is gonna be so overrated. And then I watched. I was like, that was good. Yeah, it was really good. I love that those art forms exist. I don't love Broadway plays, though. I'm not that big. But I thought Book of Mormon, I actually saw it twice. I loved that. And I thought it was as funny as something could be. Yeah, it was genius. I mean, it's a fucking... those dudes, by the way, Matt and Trey. They're on another planet. Like, they're from somewhere else. You know what movie I watched that we're talking about, like, movies that people don't talk about enough? That's so fucking perfect. Team America. Oh my God. That movie is, like, flawless. It's one of the best movies ever, for comedy? Yeah. You can't even believe what they accomplished in that movie. Like, they haven't seen the full uncut scenes where they had sex and dropped logs on each other, pissed on each other. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And the way they start the movie, they told... I saw the interview, they told the story about the opening scene of the movie is a really shitty marionette. And then it widens out, and it's a marionette in France using a marionette. And it's like, ahh! Like, that's the opening scene. Right. So they said when they fucking screened it for the studio, that's why they did that. It was, like, really shitty looking, and you heard all the executives, like, what the fuck did we pay to spend all this money on, you know? And it just reveals how there's the sex. Here's the full, unedited sex version. They did this, like, way over the top. Yeah, I remember that. So they could pull stuff back. Yeah. It's really funny. Yeah. They just decided to do it this way. So that they could... Yeah. So they would have stuff to edit out. Yeah, and for the DVD extras, look at that, dude. This is fucking crazy. Oh my god. And I think, apparently, they, um... Stiff puppets! Oh my god. They're doing everything. It's so funny. Eaten ass. Yeah. And they did this so that they could have, like, well, you gotta give us some of it. You know? They went over. They went over. They went so far over the line. It's just every position. Yeah, everything. So funny. They went so far, so fucking crazy. Yeah. Like, he's peeing on her. Yeah. All over her face, her open eyes. And then she drops a lot of them. She's got shit on his head. Oh my god, look at this. And then they just keep going. Oh my god, it's so stupid. Oh my god, it's so funny. She's giving it a med. I mean, it just goes on forever. Yeah. But they did that so that they would have room for negotiation. That's how they worked. Yeah, those guys are just geniuses, man. And that movie is like the whole concept of they need an actor. Yes. How important actors are. And how bad his acting is. Come on, Gary, you're an actor. His face with his fucking shitty makeup on? Yeah, and it's like, duk-a-duk-a. Duk-a-duk-a. And it's the Star Wars cantina scene. They're like, we're gonna transmorgify you or transmorify you. And then, like, all that stuff happens to his face. It's like 20 minutes of, like, they make it like it's face-off. And then they just glued some fucking hair to his face. It's so funny. Yeah, there it is. That is hilarious. They paint him a little brown. Look at him. Duk-a. Terrace, look at him. Come on, Gary. Act your way in. We need a Top Gun actor. That's what he says. He goes, you're a Top Gun actor. It's too bad this took so long to make. He doesn't want to make another one. They almost broke them, dude. Like, they just fucking... I can only imagine. Yeah. How much time it must take. This is so painstaking. Painstaking. I mean, are they moving each piece as it's happening and then filming it and doing it over and over and over again? Oh, they're doing multiple camera angles, multiple... They shot it like a movie. That's why it's so good. I need to watch it again. I'm forgetting this scene. I'll tell you, this is him... And then it's basically the Star Wars cantina when he walks in and, you know, and... It's really funny. But it is a movie that you can come home at like two in the morning and just be like, oh, I want to kill an hour, smoke some weed, and just throw it on. Like at any scene, it's stopped at. Oh, and don't forget about the fucking South Park movie. Yes, you're right. The South Park movie where... I don't know if that would hold up as much. The side we're saying is getting gay with the devil. With the devil, yeah. Remember that? The devil pulls his dick out and his dick... Fuck yeah, it'll hold up. Are you kidding me? Yeah, I haven't watched that in a long time. I guarantee that'll hold up. South Park is still really funny. Still hilarious. Yep, it's really funny. I mean, when it comes to overall content, it's one of the funniest shows, if not the funniest of all time. Dude, they turned stuff around. What else is it? Like, Simpsons, them... Family guy. Family guy. It's what other people love, but they fucking rip on a family guy. I know they do. South Park. Do you remember the one where they went into the writers room and the family guy and it was two manatees in a tank? And if they drop a ball and they drop a ball in a thing and then it's just a joke comes out. It's like old TV show reference, you know? So mean. That's hilarious. They just broke his formula down. Yeah, it's funny though. It's fucking hilarious. I think Seth MacFarlane, I thought those Ted movies are really funny. I didn't see them. Yeah. I still haven't seen them in Ted movies. You know, they're not like... I heard they're hilarious. Yeah, they're not like flawless movies, but they're funny. Like there's a couple of scenes in them that are like so funny that the whole movie goes up like 10 points. Because there's a few scenes in there. There's a scene where Ted's telling him about the weed he bought. And it's like, I forget the exact dialogue, but it's like, he's like, yeah, it's called like... He's like, I got some weed. It's called like, kill me now, please. You know? And he's like, why'd you get that? He's like, well, the only other options were please make it stop, make it stop. Like he's naming the weeds and they're all like this like paranoia fueled weed. It's really funny, you know? Sort of like maybe the the the jizz and the hair scene and something about Mary. It was so funny. The whole movie. Yeah, and then you remember that. Yeah. Because there's other stuff that's really funny in that movie that gets lost. Like Chris Elliot having the best wife ever is really funny. But he's still in love with Mary. That's like a joke that kind of... She's like, I made cookies. You want to blow jab? And he's like still in love with another woman. That's how amazing Mary is.
