No, I'm still an extremely loyal South Park fan. I love the works of Matt Stone and Trey Parker and still think they're TOTAL geniuses. Perhaps I'm being hypocritical...
But I think this episode went too far with the "Indiana Jones" joke. For those of you who saw this episode, you'll understand what I mean.
By all means, South Park is SUPPOSED to be a lowbrow, insensitive program that doesn't really care about anyone or anything. (Except good movie quality). It also relies mainly on shock value. However, that was no reason for them to show George Lucas humping Indiana Jones while Steven Spielberg holds him down. This joke was handled extremely well at the beginning when the boys were in the movie theatre, exaggerating the situation. After Kyle's dream, it all went downhill from there, and each vision of SS and GL "raping" Indiana Jones made me more and more uncomfortable as the show went on. I was praying for them to cut back to Cartman and Butters attempting to "stop" the Chinese from taking over the world. Then, what really got me was Cartman saying it wasn't cool to shoot a guy in the dick. Nah, butshowing Indiana Jones being raped is totally alright.
I understand you are upset about Indiana Jones and the aliens being in this new movie and all, but this joke could've been done more tastefully throughout, such as it was in the beginning. Your point could've gotten across in a more humorous and high-quality lowbrow way.
This is why I should be President.

Whoa, that does sound horrible. Yeah, it's like this new season is a tad more extreme. cmon "what in the butt" wow. And there should be 3 more seasons to come :P. I come for the humor and orginality and stay to hear what the boys learned at the end. They go too far sometimes, I mean the episode of "Tom Cruise in the closet" after a near lawsuit those guys have episodes still rolling, but then chef coming back wanting to rape litte boys. So I wonder how wild it can get.
I wouldn't want to insult those guys though. BAM new episode.
