[[caption-width-right:350:Imagine that!]]
Episode (Part 1): First aired October 17, 2007.
Episode (Part 2): First aired October 24, 2007.
Episode (Part 3): First aired October 31, 2007.
"Imaginationland" is a three-part episode of WesternAnimation/SouthPark, consisting of episode 10, 11 and 12 of the eleventh season. Originally intended to be released as a separate movie, but due to the use of countless copyrighted characters the makers chose to make it a trilogy, broadcast in the regular TV series instead.
It won an Emmy for Oustanding Animated Program for One Hour or More.
The three episodes were later reissued together, along with previously unreleased footage, as the uncensored Imaginationland: The Movie.
!! This trilogy provides examples of the following tropes:
* AlternateUniverse: Imaginationland is a different universe than ours. It can only be entered thru a portal hole and by singing the correct "Imagination" song.
* TheBet: Kyle bets that Cartman may suck his balls if he really saw a leprechaun.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: The good fictional characters fight evil fictional characters.
* CallBack: Several fictional characters within the South Park universe make a comeback, including:
** The Woodland Critters from "The Woodland Christmas Critters" episode.
** Nibblet the canary from "Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery".
** Creator/MelGibson from "The Passion Of The Jew".
** Manbearpig from the "Manbearpig" episode.
** Several deities, including JesusChrist, who appeared earlier.
** Santa Claus is also seen again.
* CompilationMovie: All three episodes have been edited as one movie and released on DVD.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Several deities and/or prophets are seen in Imaginationland and described as being "fictious" characters. Among them ancient deities like Anubis and Zeus, but also deities that are still worshipped today such as Jesus Christ, Moses, Buddha, Ganesha, Lao Zi, Krishna and Joseph Smith. Even God is mentioned being there. Parker and Stone explained on the audio commentary that they consider all these religious figures to be just as much fantasy as all the other fictious characters. However they do point out that the stories themselves, whether it be the story of Jesus Christ or {{Star Wars}}, are entertaining and inspiring and thus should be kept told forever.
** While preparing to suck Kyle's balls Cartman dresses himself up as the Pope.
* HypocriticalHumour: When the soldiers ask themselves whether Buddha is real they quickly conclude he wasn't. But when asked the same question about Jesus one immediately shouts: "Of course Jesus is real!"
* {{Irony}}: The Imagination song has very dull, uninspired and redundant lyrics consisting of nothing more than the word "imagination".
* KillTheCutie: Mickey Mouse's face is shot off, Charlie Brown loses a leg, Santa Claus is burnt alive, Strawberry Shortcake's eye is gouged out, a Care Bear is shot dead, Waldo is pierced with a spear...
* {{Lampshading}}: The general wonders how it can be possible for such young children to enter the Pentagon so easily?
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Hundreds of characters inhabitating Imaginationland can be seen.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Subverted: Creator/MelGibson, Creator/MichaelBay and Creator/MNightShyamalan Creator/KurtRussell and Al Gore are mocked mercilessly.
* ShoutOut: Boy! Too many to list.
** Mr. Imagination and the "Imagination" song are a shout-out to Film/TheKillingOfAChineseBookie.
** In "Imaginationland I" Stan goes temporarily deaf after the impact of an explosion and stares around at the violence around them, referencing a famous scene from Film/SavingPrivateRyan.
** The scene with a portal to another world is taken from Film/{{Stargate}}.
** The battle between Good and Evil mimicks the one in LordOfTheRings/TheTwoTowers.
** Cartman reanimating Kyle is a reference to Film/TheAbyss.
** Butters used by the fictious characters to imagine their world back references Literature/TheNeverendingStory.
** Countless characters from different franchises, novels, mythologies, folkloric stories, fairy tales, comic strips, cartoons, films, advertisements, TV series, video games, ... have a cameo.

"Imaginationland" is a three-part episode of WesternAnimation/SouthPark, consisting of episode 10, 11 and 12 of the eleventh season. Originally intended to be released as a separate movie, but due to the use of countless copyrighted characters the makers chose to make it a trilogy, broadcast in the regular TV series instead.
It won an Emmy for Oustanding Animated Program for One Hour or More.
The three episodes were later reissued together, along with previously unreleased footage, as the uncensored Imaginationland: The Movie.
!! This trilogy provides examples of the following tropes:
* AlternateUniverse: Imaginationland is a different universe than ours. It can only be entered thru a portal hole and by singing the correct "Imagination" song.
* TheBet: Kyle bets that Cartman may suck his balls if he really saw a leprechaun.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: The good fictional characters fight evil fictional characters.
* CallBack: Several fictional characters within the South Park universe make a comeback, including:
** The Woodland Critters from "The Woodland Christmas Critters" episode.
** Nibblet the canary from "Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery".
** Creator/MelGibson from "The Passion Of The Jew".
** Manbearpig from the "Manbearpig" episode.
** Several deities, including JesusChrist, who appeared earlier.
** Santa Claus is also seen again.
* CompilationMovie: All three episodes have been edited as one movie and released on DVD.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Several deities and/or prophets are seen in Imaginationland and described as being "fictious" characters. Among them ancient deities like Anubis and Zeus, but also deities that are still worshipped today such as Jesus Christ, Moses, Buddha, Ganesha, Lao Zi, Krishna and Joseph Smith. Even God is mentioned being there. Parker and Stone explained on the audio commentary that they consider all these religious figures to be just as much fantasy as all the other fictious characters. However they do point out that the stories themselves, whether it be the story of Jesus Christ or {{Star Wars}}, are entertaining and inspiring and thus should be kept told forever.
** While preparing to suck Kyle's balls Cartman dresses himself up as the Pope.
* HypocriticalHumour: When the soldiers ask themselves whether Buddha is real they quickly conclude he wasn't. But when asked the same question about Jesus one immediately shouts: "Of course Jesus is real!"
* {{Irony}}: The Imagination song has very dull, uninspired and redundant lyrics consisting of nothing more than the word "imagination".
* KillTheCutie: Mickey Mouse's face is shot off, Charlie Brown loses a leg, Santa Claus is burnt alive, Strawberry Shortcake's eye is gouged out, a Care Bear is shot dead, Waldo is pierced with a spear...
* {{Lampshading}}: The general wonders how it can be possible for such young children to enter the Pentagon so easily?
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Hundreds of characters inhabitating Imaginationland can be seen.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Subverted: Creator/MelGibson, Creator/MichaelBay and Creator/MNightShyamalan Creator/KurtRussell and Al Gore are mocked mercilessly.
* ShoutOut: Boy! Too many to list.
** Mr. Imagination and the "Imagination" song are a shout-out to Film/TheKillingOfAChineseBookie.
** In "Imaginationland I" Stan goes temporarily deaf after the impact of an explosion and stares around at the violence around them, referencing a famous scene from Film/SavingPrivateRyan.
** The scene with a portal to another world is taken from Film/{{Stargate}}.
** The battle between Good and Evil mimicks the one in LordOfTheRings/TheTwoTowers.
** Cartman reanimating Kyle is a reference to Film/TheAbyss.
** Butters used by the fictious characters to imagine their world back references Literature/TheNeverendingStory.
** Countless characters from different franchises, novels, mythologies, folkloric stories, fairy tales, comic strips, cartoons, films, advertisements, TV series, video games, ... have a cameo.
