not horrible nor great

Let's be realistic.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

The Spirit of Christmas (a.k.a South Park The Un-Aired Plot of 1995), is actually the second instalment of South Park Christmas shorts, with 1992 The Spirit of Christmas: Mr.Frost being the pioneer. And if you are looking for an original South Park short with what every fan loves most about, you shouldn't miss this one. And here is why:* A strong character goal -->> Stan and Kyle seek the true meaning of Christmas during a discussion * One Amazing Story Catalyst -->> Jesus descends into town in the middle of Stan and Kyle's discussion * Not a character driven story, but story driven characters -->> One of the unique episodes that doesn't follow what Stan does, it follows instead what Jesus does * Memorable lines -->> (1) Jesus: Tomorrow is my birthday Stan: Your birthday is on Christmas? That sucks dude! (2) Cartman: I say we help Santa Claus. Kyle: Your just saying that because he brings you candy. Cartman: Hey I don't have to take that kind of sh*t from a Jew. Kyle: Your such a fat f*ck Cartman that when you walk down the street people go darn that kids a big fat f*ck. * Kenny is getting killed losing her nob, alongside to 6 other Southpark civilians, her screaming for death is her only line* And the best of all -->> Jesus combats Santa Claus hand to hand. If my research is not wrong, this animation short has come out just before the Chipmunks' Christmas Special that year, remember where Dave tells the chipmunks that Christmas is not just about presents when Alvin collects money to buy himself a Christmas gift. Of all the Christmas animations and cartoons, I'd vote for the South Park Christmas short. This is pure and original fun.

stars: Trey Parker as Stan, Cartman, Santa and Brian Boitano.Matt Stone as Kyle, Jesus and Kenny.A cheaply done 5 minute Chrismtas card....and it's pretty good. it's about Jesus coming to South Park to find Santa and they get in a fight (killing Kenny). Meanwhile the foul mouthed boys cuss and cuss and even meet Brian Boitano. i watched it on the internet and I'm not sure where to find it. It's good though and any fan of South Park should watch it. Contains language and violence.My rating: B. 5 mins.Funny!

'The Spirit of Christmas' is the animated short film made by Trey Parker and Matt Stone that would lead up to the big comedy hit 'South Park' and the movie 'South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut'. If you like 'South Park' you just have to see this hilarious piece of comedy.The characters as we know them meet Jesus and later Santa Clause. The two get in a fight over who is more important for Christmas. Brian Botano shows up and learns them about the true meaning of Christmas.'The Spirit of Christmas' is too offensive for some people, like 'South Park' is, but if you understand it is all in good fun there is good a chance you will appreciate this very funny short.

This is definitely a classic. 10000000000000 times better than the original one with Frosty. That one was stupid. It took me about 4 or 5 hours to download, but I have this saved on my computer as a Quicktime file. I thought Cartman had some great lines. Kyle was good too. In other words it kicked ASS!!!!
