...created South Park with Trey Parker. Stone says that when their indie comedy Orgazmo was slapped with an NC-17, they were given no hints in cutting the film to get a less proscriptive rating. Yet two years later, when Paramount was behind their movie South Park: Bigger, Longer Uncut, the board, according to Stone, offered explicit help in which scenes might be softened or removed to achieve...
...Tang Clan's last reliably great member hasn't exactly softened his material (fishscale is apparently slang for uncut cocaine), but then he hasn't lost his ability to tell a story either.

It’s called “The Scrabble Game, Jan. 1, 1983,” and it consists of many uncut 4x6 color photographs of the board game being played between the artist and three opponents, including his mother. Rather than conveying the room and the people as they might have been at one point in time, the piece catalogs the expressions and gestures of the players as the game progresses, repeating...
