I think this was Trey Parker and Matt Stone's first film.You can find this in its entirety on youtube.South Park is my favorite television show, I also liked Team America and BASEketball, Cannibal the musical was alright as well and I haven't seen Orgazmo yet.Im sorry but this one just sucks.It's basically a 5min short about American History.It's not really funny and you can barely hear the narrator.Big fans of Matt and Trey's work should check this out, but it is fairly bad.It came out the same year as the first Spirit Of Christmas(aka Jesus Vs Frosty) which introduced the South park kids.Now that was miles better!3/10

For those who are unaware of the story behind this short film, the 'narrator' of it is Trey Parker's college roommate, a foreign exchange student, who Trey just asked to tell his interpretation of what he knew about American history. Trey just recorded that audio and then made a very basic animation to go along with it.It's not supposed to be a hilarious joke that was purposely concocted, but instead just an interesting/amusing piece. It's sorta along the same lines as other bits people have done from time to time having kids explain things as they understand them, but with a foreigner instead.

I saw this short film quite a while ago. On the second season of South Park on DVD you can see clips of this early film by Trey Parker during the documentary Going Down to South Park also. Just thought I would let people know if you want to see some of this film. It's very funny, and the animation is supposed to be crappy ... it's a great little summary on American History. It's one of Trey Parkers college films. See it if you get the chance, it's awesome.

It is well documented that anything affiliated with the creaters of southpark is a trip. This is of course a definite. I liked it. Not too many people know about it though. Find some footage. I think it's pretty sweet *ss.
