Trivia

 * Plans for a second South Park movie originated back in 2000 after the commercial and critical success of Bigger, Longer and Uncut. Trey Parker and Matt Stone originally envisioned it as a Coon & Friends movie.
 * The film has a noticably different visual style from the show, with more fluid movements and smoother animation.
 * Kenny's Death: Kenny falls off a cliff and impales himself during a mid-credits scene.
 * Unlike the first film where the focus was mostly put on Stan's pursuit to win over Wendy, this movie puts the primary focus on Cartman's development as a character and his relationship with his friends.
