Bowling for Columbine and Trey Parker and Matt Stone
In his 2nd full length documentary Bowling for Columbine, Moore interviewed Matt Stone and Trey Parker regarding Colorado's social climate, as the two grew up in Litteton, CO, to gain more insight on the conditions that shaped Harris Klebold and Dylan Stone, the Columbine Massacre students. Though they gave Moore an honest interview and and considered their cuts in the movie as fair, they remain on rocky terms with Moore due to him commissioning a South Park style animation bit before their interview, and made without the consent of either of them; the short was that of a bit showcasing KKK related crimes and atrocities due to associations with the NRA. Matt Stone alleges that the short created mistakenly gives the impression that both of them created it themselves, and remain strained with him, calling Moore a filmmaker who cooks context and creates bias through cutting together his films as to provide a truth for a one sided agenda.
Trivia
- He was first parodied in Matt Stone and Trey Parker's puppet movie Team America: World Police.
