I just caught the end of Beavis and Butthead do America on tv and it made me wonder given (a lot of) time has passed since both movies were released which do you consider to be the better movie now?
for me it's the Beavis and Butthead movie as I can still watch & quote it. whenever I find it on tv I will sit there and watch what is left of it

The best parts of the South Park movie IMO are “Up There” (especially when Satan hits the finale) and the extended “I’m Super”. Aside from that it’s not bad at all, just kind of an above average South Park episode a la Imaginationland.
It doesn’t have anything as funny as Cornholio running around in the White House and challenging the Nixon painting. “My bunghole, it goes RrrRRAAwataglboagabeyblah!”

I just watched the South Park movie a few days ago for the first time in probably 15 years. There were some parts that dragged but the parts that hit really hit. The songs are still all amazing.
I need to rewatch B&B too. I haven't seen that in years and years either and really don't remember it too well.

I would say South Park is a better movie. But I enjoy Beavis and Butthead more.

Both are great but Do America feels more cinematic overall, BL&U has incredible music but it also feels like a 90 minute long South Park episode.

I like them both, however it does feel like the Beavis and Butthead movie was created when a lot of the interest was already wearing off, whereas the South Park movie was released at the height of their mainstream popularity.
And while I'll always appreciate and actually prefer what Judge did with Beavis and Butthead in later seasons, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't brought into watching them when they were more crass, rude, cruel and animated more poorly...which is why those episodes I'll probably revisit since they've become such a rarity.
I could actually say the same for South Park. Parker and Stone seem to really hate their earlier work, namely Season 2...but I love a ton of episodes from those earlier seasons, and genuinely don't have a hated episode until they get to Season 10 with A Million Little Fibers.

I really like them both, but the songs in South Park are amazing, and while the social commentary seems kinda outdated in an era where you can say f*** on basic cable, at the time it was spot on.

Saw Do America in a theater 3 times. Waited on Home video to see BLU.
Even now I will go back and rewatch Beavis and Butthead. Haven't bothered with South Park in a decade.

So...Do America or Do The Universe?

At the time, I thought the South Park movie was much funnier. As an adult, and knowing more about the world than I did when I was twelve or however old, I get Beavis & Butthead far better than I did then, and think it's probably a funnier movie. Just in general I think Beavis & Butthead has aged far, far better too.
There are few better observers and documenters of workaday human stupidity than Mike Judge.

BLU came out when the show was still new so the novelty was mainly in the more mature content, but then the show surpassed that so it's now just an extended episode from when the show was still finding it's feet.
Do America has aged better I would say.

Though to be fair, neither Do America or Bigger Longer Uncut had an inexplicable Roger Ebert cameo as a bumbling mayor out of spite or a song on the soundtrack by Rage Against The Machine that basically shits all over the movie.

The whole intro to B&B Do America (The Godzilla bit and the Shaft homage at the beginning) by itself is better than all of BLU, IMO.

I like them both, but I like South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut a little better.

I also love the fact, that after Kenny reveals his face in B, L & U, he was voiced by Mike Judge.
