You can always count on “South Park” to poke a little fun at the latest would-be Hollywood blockbuster. They’ve already parodied “2012″, “Avatar”, and pretty much every big movie out there. On last night’s “South Park”, they took on “Tron”, though admittedly they didn’t really slam on the franchise.
It was more like a love tap, with the real victim of satire being all things Facebook. There’s even a very sweet little side story about a friendless kid who lives and dies by how many friends (or lack thereof) he has on Facebook. The whole Chat Roulette segment was also hilarious.
Here’s a clip from the episode “Mad Friends”, which finds Stan sucked into the “Facebook world” which looks curiously a lot like Tron’s. You can see the full episode over here.
