Release information
South Park: Imaginationland is made up of three South Park episodes: Episode I, II and III. The first episode premiered on Comedy Central on October 17, 2007. This first episode was so popular that nearly 3.5 million people viewed it. The creators decided to put the three episodes plus unseen footage into a movie format and the result is South Park: Imaginationland.

The DVD for South Park: Imaginationland was released on March 11, 2008 by Paramount and Comedy Central. Initially, they had thought about making it into a theatrical release before it was ever set to air on television; however, the creators changed their minds. Once the episode aired and was so popular, they decided to go the straight to DVD route. This DVD is available at most major retailers.

Plot

Cartman bet Kyle that if he proves the existence of lepracaun, Kyle will suck Cartman's balls. After they actually do see a lepracaun, the magical creature awares them of incoming terrorist attack. Kyle, Stan, Jimmy, Kenny and Butters go for a ride to the magical Imaginationland, where all the "goofy" and interesting parts of human imagination coexist. The terrorists at this moment attack Imaginationland and afterwards blow up the barrier seperating the good and evil halves of human's imagination. Butters is left behind and during the rampage brought by the evil imaginations emerges as the "Key" to saving the land from the danger of becoming "really lame as Star Wars parody".
