Sonnunva bee sting! This is sorry news to find out. About a year and a half ago news went out that South Park creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, were banging around a script for Paramount about the Kaiju-Giant Monster sub-genre in Japan. It would have been a live action film incorporating the rubber suit monsters that folks like us love around these parts.

Would have? Yeah. It looks like the duo have no plans to do this film, or any film, simply because they don't like the film making process and the toils involved with it. We start with part of an interview with Matt Stone with AVClub last week when he was asked about future movie projects...

MS: We don't really have any—we're not really doing much with movies right now. We're kind of just concentrating on the TV show. Movies are hard.

AVC: What have you learned from your past live-action movies that you want to put into effect on the next ones?

MS: Uh, they're hard, and I don't want to do 'em any more. If you're gonna do a movie, you'd better be damn sure you want to do that movie, because it's gonna suck to make. They are really, really tough to make. It's the business of movies, it's the fights that go along with the level of budget, and more than anything, it's the creative constipation of having to live with one idea for two or three years.

Then I found a blurb from Trey Parker over at Robo Japan

Parker was quoted in a article on Fangoria.com saying, “They were scripts that we liked, and we basically acquired them through Paramount, and they’re two things that we’re working on to figure out which one we really want to do.”

Quasi conflicting messages but still sad news regardless. I think they could have done some really good things with a good script. 'Sniff Sniff". I'll be okay, I just need a moment alone.
