Sometimes Trey Parker and Matt Stone are trying to make you laugh, and sometimes they're trying to make you squirm. The "South Park" creators do all of the above with their new film, "Team America: World Police," which narrowly avoided an NC-17 rating by trimming a hardcore sex scene &#151; between puppets.

When you&#39;re making an R-rated puppet movie with controversial marionette-on-marionette sex scenes, you&#39;d think you&#39;d have all the controversy you could stomach.

Innocent by todayâs standards, the humor of âLove American Styleâ is typical of a show that titillated in its day but now plays like a mildly randy glimpse of a more promiscuous, less cynical era.

Gabe: So the big news today, in the world of web comics at least is that PvP is getting itself animated. Scott posted the news along with a little teaser over on his site. He"s actually writing the entire thing with the help of Kris Straub. I was a big fan of the old Blamimations they did together and I"ve told them both whenever possible that they needed to collaborate more. I make jokes when I"m uncomfortable and it just so happens I have issues with anxiety so I"m essentially uncomfortable all day. That means I spend a lot of my time making jokes. When Scott and Kris were up here visiting I hardly said a word. They"re just too funny and they"re always on. You just can"t compete with them, all you can do is laugh.

With its ludicrous frisson of patriotism and a nod to "The Da Vinci Code," a more cynical grab for Hollywood gold is hard to imagine.
