Was it just me or did the Super Adventurers Club on South Park tonight have the center statue and the large talking statue (can't remember either name). Kind of funny how they often insert little inside jokes and I could swear that was going on there.

Funny because that's exactly what I thought of when I was watching. I'm glad they explaned the difference between the two clubs though, I'd be afraid to ever go the Adventurers Club otherwise :lookaroun

It wasn't actually mentioned. There was a 'Super Adventure Club' in the episode and the inside of it looked similar to the AC. Zeus was in the center of the room in the same pose. Stuff all over the walls, including Babylonia. Didn't look like her but it was clearly supposed to be her.

Actually, the Super Adventure Club from the South Park episode was meant to further mock Scientology (though you may be right that they also included some Disney elements for extra fun). This episode was rushed together after Isaac Hayes (voice of Chef) quit the show over their previous mocking of Scientology.

I watched this episode last night for the first time since going to the Adventurer's Club, and I have to say, there definitely are quite a few nods to the A.C. in this episode. I guess Matt and Trey really are A.C. fans!

(And yes, I realize this thread has been dormant for a couple of years, but there's nothing wrong with resurrecting a good SP thread!)

Wikipedia also mentions about this too...
"The March 2006 South Park episode The Return of Chef showed the character of Chef becoming a member of a club called the Super Adventure Club (meant as a parody of Scientology). The layout of the headquarters of the Super Adventure Club was patterned after the interior of Pleasure Island's Adventurers Club. It is believed that the research for this episode was done on South Park co-creator Trey Parker's honeymoon."

Calling the denizens of the Adventurer Club a bunch of pedophiles would not really be considered a fan. :shrug:

Actually it is Poseidon that is in the center of the room of AC. Zeus is the center of a club called Jekyll and Hyde in New York City. J&H is very similar to AC, so much so that Disney actually went there look at franchising it in Orlando.

Not the first time South Park has spoofed Disney...and hopefully not the last. South Park is not the only one to do it. The "Simpsons Did It" on many occasions!!!

This was a pretty great episode, even if just for the fact that they spliced in Chef's voice from previous episodes... I gotta go watch it again now. :lol:

That's because Trey Park is a huge Disney fan. At least one episode Trey Parker does one tribute to Disney in some way. The episode was making fun of the AC.

Actually, the cast of the Adventurers Club refers to that statue by the name "Zeus Goes Fishing". Yes, it's a replica of a classic sculpture of Poseidon, but at the AC, he's Zeus.
