South Park: The Cult of Cartman - Revelations



For the casual fan who doesn't have the season sets, or the devoted fan who must have everything.
Made to look like a book with gold leaf edging on the sides, the novel packaging will appeal to the fans who must have everything South Park.

The collection of "a dozen of Cartman's most important teachings" will appeal to the casual fan who does not want to invest in season sets.

1) Scott Tenorman Must Die
2) Awesom-O
3) The Death of Eric Cartman
4) Cartoon Wars (Part 1)
5) Cartoon Wars (Part 2)
6) Le Petite Tourtte
7) Tonsil Trouble --first time on DVD--
8) Eek, A P****! --first time on DVD--
9) Cartmanland
10) Up The Down Steroid
11) Super Fun Time --first time on DVD--
12) Ginger Kids

Exclusive to this DVD set is an "Original Life Lessons Introduction" by Eric Cartman.

While three of these episodes are new to DVD, it is probably not enough for a collector of the season sets to want to duplicate the...

The Eric Theodore Cartman Society
Why can't we all be more like Cartman? I am so excited that "South Park" is finally putting out a best-of Cartman set. If you've watched this long running, wholesome, family-friendly series then you know exactly what I mean. Cartman is such a cute little critter. And so intelligent and loving. When I think of Cartman I am always reminded of all the good that Jesus has done. Cartman is a totally thankless individual who only wants to spread love and devotion.

Released on the eve of "South Park's" premiere (the second half of Season 12 kicks off on 10/8 with an entirely new ep all about Cartman, The China Probrem) is "The Cult of Cartman - Revelations." (Some brick & mortar, big-box stores like Wal-Mart, Best Buy and Target are likely selling this new set before 10/7 though.) Anyway, this is a 2-DVD set which includes a total of a dozen of Cartman's most-loved, classic eps. My favorite is probably your favorite too, Scott Tenorman Must Die.

"Here are my life lessons, for you to follow"
The Cult of Cartman: Revelations. Very intrigued, I was. And while I am sure that this set is a spoof of the X-Files Revelations DVD set, I find this one particularily original and interesting. I will not bother to list the episodes in this set, since previous reviews include them already, though I will mention that some of these episodes are by far among the best South Park has to offer (Awesome-O, Super Fun Time, Eek A P**** and the two-parter Cartoon Wars). In addition to this, the box is designed to look like a book (Revelations, after all) and you get an Eric Theodore Cartman Society membership card (which expires in 2012, along with the rest of civilisations) and a nice sticker. And on top of that, each episode is introduced by a life lesson by Eric Cartman, which is very nice any funny ("Never take a joke too far, Hitler learned this one the hard way" would be an exemple of that).

Obviously, these are not good enough reasons to buy this set if you already have the...
