- BASEketball is basically live action South Park with The Sandlot mixed in.
In this review, I go through Matt Stone & Trey Parker's sports masterpiece, BASEketball.

"I swear, you guys rip on me 13 or 14 more times, I'm outta here."
Still one of my favorite lines in a movie
Him sleeping in a box under the bed with a teddybear is gold😂
its funny because i am that guy. you wouldnt expect it from my stature but those that know me, im a big baby lmao
"a chick wouldn't fug you if you had a hundred dollar bill hangin out your zipper"
"The cutest little Adam's apple."
Probably the most underrated things in this movie is they got Al Michaels to be in it. The man who said “Do you belive in Miracles” also said “I can’t believe those girls were in grade school just a few years ago”
Their second movie "Orgazmo " is by far Their funniest movie
First is Cannibal The Musical, Second is Orgazmo, Third is Baseketball
Choda boy
@@DarthKofi391deathASSASSIN That's the order they were released in but the first two don't hold up as well as Baseketball without nostalgia doing a lot of heavy lifting.
@@DarthKofi391deathASSASSIN Matt and Trey didn't write or direct Baseketballl, they only star in it. It was written and directed by David Zucker.
Matt and Trey's real third movie was South Park bigger, longer and uncut and fourth was Team America: World Police.
I get that you are referring to films they actually live action acting in but just wanted to clear that up for anyone reading.
I love Cannibal the Musical, even bought the DVD for the drunken commentary, it's probably the best one of all time AND it manages to stay infomative despite their B.A.C.
Orgazmo got me grounded, I rented it at the videostore, and my Mom saw the tape sticking out of my VCR. All she saw was the title, and she instantly thought I'd rented a porno. She didn't believe me when I said there wasn't any nudity other than a man's bare ass covering the boobage.
literally still quote this movie to this day... with diminished returns obviously 🤣🤣 cult classic for sure! great vid.
A guy at work (not even somebody I normally talked to) threw in the "13 or 14 more times..." line, and it threw me into happiness shock.
@philipstowers4741 classic line!
This movie is horrible and I love it. It’s so mean spirited, tasteless, and downright stupid in its writing. I’m almost convinced that the film would be unwatchable if anyone else played the two lead characters. Trey and Matt have an iconic friendship and perfect on screen chemistry
Get it right. It’s Joe “Coop” Cooper, and Doug “Sir Swish” Remer. 😃
"You're excited, feel these nipples!" Saw this in theatres with my mom, great movie. What's amazing how much of what they made fun of as ridiculous (e.g. choreographed end zone celebrations) has actually become the accepted reality
lol so true
I still say that nipple quote 😂 love this movie.
Glad to know my stepbrothers and I weren't the only ones who saw this movie, and then went to the nearest court to play.
We went to theater to see this movie. I dont think ive ever been in a theater laughing so loud without complaints. And my poor buddy Phil left with the nickname Squeak forever linked to him😂
Used to play BASEKETBALL after school every day in high school.
Hahah yeah, my buddies and I loved this movie and would actually play the game.
Everyone sleeps on that opening scene the narrator talking about teams relocations the ridiculous sponsors for teams and arenas. Players not caring about the sport anymore just chasing a bigger and bigger check. It basically predictiled what sports has become today. A farce.
The hospital scene was good too. 😂🤣
"The Jazz moved to Utah where they don't allow music"
I always loved that scene, but I remember finding the football player's voice familiar, later I learned that Kevin Michael Richardson played that role, and you can really tell when he says "The fine city of MIAMI!"
@@justinlee5874 "He kept screaming 'CHOKE CHOKE' but then he lost consciousness."
Sorry, I've been randomly quoting this movie all throughout this comment section.
Cannabal: the musical. The other live action Matt and Trey movie.
And also Orgasmo
@@jtilton5Mentioned in the video though.
Hey you guys wanna build a snowman or something?
I will never understand how they got Dale Earnhardt to cameo in this
If BASEketball and BioDome don't put a smile on your face when you're feeling blue.... nothing will
Shout out to the Benicia High School Baseketball league of 2004 (yes, we pulled it off)
I would seriously love to know more about this.... That sounds incredible
@ManWithMicrophone basically, my lil' brother was a Sophomore, I was a Senior. We knew enough nerds to collectively form 3 teams, we would meet at the local middle school courts on Fridays after school (fri. Was 1/2 days in CA). I would provide herbal accouterments to those that partook. And we played some Baseketball like only teenagers could. It all spawned in an "arts production" class, which was very progressive at the time. You learned how to shoot and edit short films. It was (obviously) mostly stoner drama kids. We got a 1/4 page in the yearbook, no big deal.
Wow, wow, wow. That is incredible... I am insanely jealous but also so happy that yall were able to do that. Sounds like a lot of fun
@ManWithMicrophone thanks dude, to be clear, your channel is great. I really had forgotten that Brad Pitt was a night monkey until you brought it up.
How do you not know Ernest Borgnine?!?!
By not being a senior citizen
@@esbenm6544 Nobody knows Mermaid Man? We aren't THAT old yet.
22:50 13 or 14 more times" best line in the movie
One of the joys of my life was going to see Baseketball. I also saw Orgasmo. Yeah I suppose you know the demands of South Park, creating a feature film, Team America: World Police, etc...
I do wish there would have been more Matt Stone and Trey Parker films, but you know people also wish their were more Beatles films too.
Sometimes these folks get so busy, and they are in such high demand; they run out of time to make more great work; which is the definition of irony.
Um, I don't wanna sound like a queer, but...
I’ve never seen anyone mention this movie. I totally thought this was a made up memory from my childhood.
Thank you man!
“He’s blind Doug”
“Ah”
😂
If this movie had any other cast, it wouldn't have worked for me. Trey and Matt are just naturally funny guys with awesome chemistry, and I truly believe they're the funniest modern comic duo.
Plus, this was Robert Stack's best role ever, not a surprise as he was the only good part of Caddyshack II.
Me n my buddies were obsessed with this movie as kids we watched it literally 419 times rofl, theres actually alot of fun little easter eggs throughout that you notice with every rewatch
Why not 420?
This is my go-to movie whenever I'm in a really bad mood. So many great quotes and moments.
What's crazy is how consistently good South Park season ratings are... Also, if I recall PHONEbooth had release issues because there was an actual active sniper that started up a few weeks before the films release and the studio chose to delay the release and the public (back then) thought it was tempting fate to go see it.
The most downright stupid but outrageously hilarious and quotable movie of all time
It's 100x funnier and better than modern south park
This video was fun and informative. I never knew about Matt and Trey's first movie I was shocked to see inly 450 subs on this channel
This was excellent! Thanks for taking the time to do this!
This movie is 1 of my all time favorites. I love EVERYTHING about it.
Great video, but the fact you didn’t mention Cannibal! The Musical is criminal. Dian Bachar puts in another stellar performance in it too.
Comedies from the late 90s and early 2000s had a ton of random cameos that added to the movie lol. Two that come to mind is Zoolander and the 2nd Jay and Silent Bob movie lol
Cool to hear other people actually went out and played this sport after seeing the movie, cause damn we used to spend the summer playing for hours. It's a perfect driveway game. It's crazy how good it works (though I do believe it was a sport Zucker had actually fleshed out with their friends so it makes sense)
18:45 - Will Smith is disqualified, you can’t physically touch the other players!
Very good video!
I would like if you made one reviewing their early live action movie Cannibal The Musical though. One of my favorite things they've done
there is also 'cannibal! the musical' by troma, another great movie involving these guys. totally worth checking out and possibly reviewing for your channel to shine some light on a little known film.
Bro, fav movie from my childhood! Thank you for this amazing video!
Pairing Zucker and Stone/Parker was an unsurprising success.
As someone that grew up watching Airplane and Kentucky Fried Movie, it was neat seeing titans of comedy from different eras overlap.
I was 9 when this came out and had no business forcing my grandfather to watch this over and over again
al michaels had an issue with his contract. he claimed they low money-balled him during production cause he found out other salaries. glad it was worked out :)
If you can deal with Troma Productions level of B movie, and can find it, there is always Cannibal: The Musical.
At the time I didn't even know this movie did terrible. But I was and still is a southpark fan and I love every minute of this.
Who doesn’t love BASEketball?! This is EXCELLENT! Deserves way more views!
Great job, sir.
Thanks! Much appreciated!
The truth about the man they are basing their new character on was a slave who was dressed up as a samurai to mock him and he was seen as an attraction
Besides being one of my favorite movies, baseketball is legitimately a fun game with rules that totally work. My brothers and played for years. Psych outs are so fun.
Yes! Super easy to learn too.
A fantastic game that hopefully doesn't get lost
i remember getting a VHS tape of this off a mate and remember a scene with Indian kids in turban hard hats, then after years i watched it on tv a few times it was always cut out. then i got it on DVD and there was no such scene in that either... did i just imagine it?
also, joey diaz was off his tits the entire time he was employed
There's a scene where Coop goes to Calcutta and sure enough, he walks through a sweatshop and I'm fairly certain there were some hard hats, I need to rewatch it.
Yes that happened
I quote this movie all the time..ALL THE TIME
Well done ! Was shocked u have so few subs ! U will get there , keep them coming !
Thanks so much! I won't be stopping anytime soon
Stumbled upon your excellent video! One of my favorite movies growing up! 🤟
Thanks so much! This is definitely a big childhood movie for me too!
I remember reading an Interview on Playboy that Trey and Matt have gone on record that after the "Kiss" scene, they proceeded to "guzzle mouthwash".
AWESOME REVIEW INSTANT SUBSCRIBE, LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE THIS MOVIE IS ABSOLUTELY UNDERRATED BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T MENTION ROBERT STACK'S CAMEO
They used so many south park tropes in this and i loved it. I remember hearing cartman and mr garrisons voices in this
Heard this creator's going out with Squeak!! Lol
Great video! And I agree Yasmin still kills it👍✌️
I always enjoyed this. It fit right in with Adam Sandler comedies at that time: Happy Gilmore, Dirty Work, & The Waterboy.
One of my favorite sports movies of all time
This is a good video, subbed halfway through 🤘
This movie is a gem and and it may not be mainstream but it was big enough with my family & friends that I can still reference it without blank stares.
Probably a product of it's cult status but every time I watch it I think that it really does not get enough credit for accurately predicting where professional sports & sports broadcasting were headed. A lot of things it was lampooning in what at the time was an exaggerated way became not that far from the truth in subsequent years.
Glad youtube threw this video my way, now subbed, and also just a nice reminder to go watch it since it has been a while for me.
Those flash edits are perfect
basketball > something about mary
Still one of the best comedy movies EVER
Al Michaels is hilarious in this. Not sad like he is when he does Thursday Night Football on Amazon.
It's crazy how wild his lines are in this compared to how boring he is in real life
@@ManWithMicrophone Back in the day he was one of the best but you can tell he does not have the energy to care like he did.
How could you cut before the dozen egg night joke finished???
I was 8 when this movie came out. I wasn't allowed to see it in the theaters of course but I got my dad to rent it on VHS The Weeknd it premiered on Starz I recorded it on a blank tape and watched it over and over until I had every single line memorized by heart. I still can quote ever line in this movie. I'm surprised you barely talked about Jenny McCarthy in this video, that has always made me laugh with her innuendos
Honestly, I didn't talk about jenny McCarthy because she sucks in real life ..... I do love her character though
Ahh i loved me some late 90s and early 2000s Jenny McCarthy
@@brandonconforto315 I know exactly what you mean Mr Baxter...
“How to speak San Francisian…”
Yeah that psyche out wouldn’t make the Final Cut today
This is one of my favorite and in my opinion one of the most underrated films. It did suffer from the "shitty summer movie" syndrome that plagued so much of cinema.
They started with movies. “Cannibal, the musical” and “orgazmo” is what lead me to South Park. But i definitely love Basketball the most (and they didn’t even write or direct it).
Technically not true: the duo has a cameo in the Troma film "TerrorFirmer" directed by Lloyd Kaufman. "Uncle Lloyd" had a cameo at the end of "Orgazmo". Troma, headed by Kaufman, bought their first film, "Cannibal: The Musical".
The British journalist and filmmaker Adam Curtis said, a couple of years ago, that South Park is true genius! That was the first thing I heard from Curtis that I already knew, btw.
This has consistently been in my top 5 all time favorite movies of all time, and I am very unapologetic about that fact.
Thanks for the nostalgia - squeak is the most unique character ever in any movie
I been waiting for someone to run this back‼️‼️‼️🤩🫡🤟🏽🛸💯🔊👽❗️
I loved this movie right when it first came out. So, so, so dumb but also so damn funny.
Cannibal the musical was my groups fav movie back in highschool, we watched it all the time, at parties we would sing a spadoinkle day, which no one ever knew but us. Tho we def spread the movie around as after hearing our beautiful song, many times we would have to pop in the vhs due to request.
You forget out of college they got to work with Troma to make cannibal the musical and while it's not their best work plus they criticize it all the time it was still funny and someone made a play out of it just so you know
“Oh look it’s liposuction from Marlon Brando’s ass, and it’s salty and warm” ha ha ha I use to die as a 13 year old in 1998 watching this!
i was probably about 10-12 when i watched this classic, the locker room scene is fantastically absurd
My brother and I aren't south park fans but we did like these movies
I’m used to it now, but the first time I saw this, my friends and I laughed so hard. That operating room scene just about killed me. ✨😂😂😂✨
adding it to the watchlist
Cannibal the Musical and Orgazmo are 2 other live action movies they did. Orgazmo is so funny
This movie was my favorite movie to watch in college when I got “wierd” most people hate it but this movie has a special place in my heart- it is stupid but I love it
I mean, yeah, they are pretty autonomous but David Zucker was on the zenith back then for comedies.
Coors Banquet. Best beer ever!
They did a student film called "Cannibal the Musical" and a movie called "Orgazmo". All worth checking out.
the first R-rated movie I ever watched when I was 6 LOL. Godamn I felt so badass afterwards
I was lucky enough to see this amazing movie in the theater when it came out
The only other movie with the number of one-liners is Happy Gilmore, and that is saying a lot. This movie is fantastic.
cant believe more people arent subbing to this channel!!!
This is my favorite sports movie
Nice video, Matt and Trey are the only creators I know that tackled Scientology and the Mormon church
The Mormon church is worth HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS $$$
Still the funniest film ever made. You missed Cannibal the Musical too.
If I was able to set up a league I think there would be a lot of money to made if it's a youtube channel. If the psych outs are funny and creative.....combined with enough skilled players it would be great
I love seeing this and 0rgazm0 getting a resurgence of attention
Uncle Joey Diaz
This movie made me Laugh my Ass off back in the day. Still trying to find it 30 yrs later.
One of my favorite 90s comedy movies.
Cult classic and its definitely worth a rewatch.
This is one of the few movies I can put on any time and I know bits going to be laughs the entire time
9:03 a new episode every week for the last several years.
It is a hilarious movie.
Thank you for bringing more people into watching something that is completely ridiculous
And if only movies now would be made like this
Once again!
Anyways, happy Friday
This was a favorite when I was a teenager...I cried laughing the first time I saw it. Matt and Trey aren't proud of it but I think its a classic! The "over celebrating" touchdown dances are even relevant today..unfortunately.
