BASEketball BASEketball After a promising opening deadpan sequence about the downfall of sports, Zucker hands over the reins to the two South Park morons, whose idea of cutting-edge comedy is swearing a lot and French kissing each other. Parker and Stone play Joseph Cooper and Doug Remer, the stars and inventors of a new sports sensation. A mix of basketball and baseball, BASEketball is like one of those games that you dreamed up as a kid and that's never meant to be seen by anyone, especially in scene after scene of a motion picture. The South Park guys are supposed to keep us entertained, but there's nothing inspired about their gross behavior. As for Mr. Zucker, just one question: what happened to the jokes? -- Mark Bazer |
