Missing episodes '200' and '201' on season 14 dvd... PostWed Aug 10, 2011 11:35 pm Offline

Just bought the Australian season 14 dvd, and both of these episodes are missing, despite the packaging stating otherwise... Does anyone know why? I bought the U.S Blu Ray and that has the episodes included, but is region locked for the first time ever, so I'm unable to watch it. So I decide to wait for a local release and BAM! Two episodes quietly removed from the "Complete" season...
WTF is this all about? Why does one region get these episodes and we don't? This is censorship taken to ridiculous extremes. I returned my season 14 and will be ordering yet another copy from the U.S, this time on DVD.

Same thing has happened to me.

I contacted Paramount Home Entertainment Australia and spoke to someonoe there. They told me that they only just found out about this themselves. What they told me was that their LA office told them that Tom Cruise's people wanted the episodes removed from international release due to the upcoming release of Mission Impossible 4.

If that's true, then that's just outrageous!

Not only that, as you say, the packaging says "Complete Season 14", meaning the packagaing is also misleading, which is completely illegal!

Someone owes us 200 and 201. I don;t even care if they are still censored.

What the hell? That's no good. Write a letter and complain: this is one of the few situations that warrants it. Sure they'll throw it out right away, but you'll feel better.

It would also be bullsh*t, since

1. '200' and '201' have nothing to do with Scientology and everything to do with showing Muhammad.

B. Tom Cruise got much worse treatment in 'Trapped In The Closet' than he does in '200' and '201,' and his people denied having 'Trapped In The Closet' banned six years ago because M:I III was coming out the following spring.

bullsh*t, bullsh*t, bullsh*t!

I couldn't get anyone at Paramount to speak to me, which is lame as I was hoping to spin an article out of this mess. I ended up taking my copy back to JB Hi-Fi and got a full refund; I also got them to rectify their website so that it now displays a disclaimer. I also, filled with righteous indignation, amended the wikipedia pages to reflect this turn of events, so a small victory but a victory nonetheless.

Just ordered a region 1 DVD earlier tonight, the third copy of this season I've purchased...
This experience just really soured my feelings on South Park, I wait patiently for the offical releases so that I can support Matt and Trey through my purchases, only to be sodomised with a broom handle covered in rusty razor blades by Paramount and CC. It's ludicrous.


BTW, Does anyone even f**king care about the mission impossible movies anyway? Have you ever heard anyone say "Oh Bro, I'm so stoked for the new MI film, I can't wait?"
No. Of course not. Paramount are deluded to invest so much into Tom Cruise, the man's a joke and his movies have all sucked balls lately, with the possible exception of 'Tropic Thunder'.

Either everything is okay to make fun of, or nothing is.

Freedom isn't free, it costs folks like you and me. :wink:

That's interesting about the disclaimer. I went to the paramount tv on dvd website (aussie one) and now there's no reference to Season 14 anywhere.

The plot thickens...

Also, I didn't make up what I said about Paramount. I spoke to them early on Friday morning and got through (Home Entertainment division). I guess I got through because it wa searly and they had not received any complaints about it yet. I simply repeated what I was told re: Tom Cruise. Whether it is true or not is another thing, but I certainly didn't make it up myself. For all I know they could have just been spinning some excuse to get rid of me.

What I do know is that it is not right these episodes were removed despite the packaging clearly stating otherwise. That's false advertising which is illegal.

Like mikepattonfan said, I also like to purchase the local sets to support Matt and Trey, but I won't continue to do so if Paramount keep pulling stunts like this.

Apparently '200' and '201' are fully uncensored on Netflix in the US right now, from what some guy said.

Anyway, WHAT THE f*ck. I WANT 200 AND 201 ON MY SEASON 14 DVD SET. I'm not gonna be forced to buy a multi-region DVD player and import, this is BS.

Ahahaha, I figured as much. Someone I know said they weren't on Netflix Instant, so there you go. :)
