South Park Guys + Corporate Master + Stars = Big Funny

For some strange reason back in 1995, Universal Studios thought it would be a great idea to let Matt Stone and Trey Parker, who would soon go on to South Park fame, direct an employee video to ease the transition after Seagrams bought a controlling interest in the company.

So many cameos(Spielberg, Michael J. Fox, Sly Stallone, Demi Moore), and so much industrial film satire, especially at Universal's expense. I liked a quip I saw about it... that the funniest thing about the movie is the fact that the Universal Executives had to watch it before they decided that it really wasn't for them.

Watch it while you can, and I have a feeling that the genie will soon be going back into the bottle through the magic of litigation.
