"Something Wall*Mart This Way Comes"

by Wild Willie Westwood, with sources from all over the Web


Yes, there was a Wal*Mart in South Park before. In "Red Man’s Greed" Stan says "Just because you have a piece of paper saying you own it doesn't make it yours. We grew up here. Our parents grew up here. We shop at that Wal-Mart, and eat at that Chili's. We take fish from the streams and bread them and freeze them to make fish sticks. This is not just a town, it is our way of life."

"Um, the last thing you do when you die, is crap your pants." - probably true, as the sphincter relaxes, and anything behind it comes flying out from the pressure drop.

We learn that Stark's Pond was once in Metzger's Field and is now replaced by the new Wall*Mart.

"It's beautiful!" - used in horror movies.

"But this way you save like twenty bucks!" - you'd save $11.94, and that's before taxes.

When Sharon shifts in her sleep, the purple covering she has on her eyes is gone. When Randy returns to bed, it's back on her forehead.

Cartman stands before a box of Golden Tickets. In Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Wonka held a contest for a tour of his chocolate factory. Five of his candy bars had golden tickets in them, and the kids who found those tickets were asked to come to the factory for the tour.


Two bus stop signs? And what's that gray thing next to the second one? And why are the sidewalks so well-segmented?

The lights are back on when Randy and the boys head over to the television department.

iPee3 - a combination of iPod, MP3, and pee. :D Made by Okama.

The boys facing the Wall*Mart is like Neo facing the Architect in the Matrix.

Kyle sounds like Stan when he says "We'd better get out of here."

The Matrix, "Canceled" - Stan and Kyle talking to Desire, Wall*Mart personified.

Independence Day - Chef told the soldier to send out the message on how to destroy Wall*mart.

Something Wicked This Way Comes - The Wall*Mart finds away to reassemble itself after a fire. In the movke, an evil carnival comes to a small town, tempts the plain townsfolk with its delights, and is seen magically assembling itself rapidly in the night. Two young boys discover its evil secret.

Poltergeist - the way the Wall*Mart collapsed in on itself like the house did in the movie. Also, the way the greeter says "All are welcome, all are welcome."

The Omen - Nanny Suicide scene, but the window was open, and the Nanny yells out, "Look at me Damien! It's all for you!" right before she jumps. She doesn't crap her pants, though.

Difference between Wednesday and Saturday's eps: Wall*Mart itself, aka Desire, the Consumer talks normally in Wednesday's airing but in Saturday night's airing he has a monotone voice, like a robot.
