Comment

Through this episode, the authors insinuate that the purpose of the countryside of Al Gore is to draw the attention to him and not on the Climate warming. The imaginary being “Homoursporc” (“half Man half Bear half Pig”) is an allegory of global warming here, subject of the film feeling of Al Gore, a truth which disturbs .

The authors introduce Al Gore like a “looser”, one bet, ready with anything not to be alone. They wanted to illustrate the fall fulgurating of its notoriety after the election which it lost and its return on the front of the scene to alert people on climate warming. Stan has pity of him but Al Gore makes use just of him to serve his projects. He then invents Homoursporc to go interesting and draw the attention. When at the end of the episode, Stan tries to make him realize that it is losing but Al Gore remains imprisoned in his incoherent logic. He then decides to carry out his film and leaves.

Note

This episode can be taken as a mirror of Volcano : Homoursporc does not exist but Kukrapock if, the lava is replaced by water, that relates to a mountain, Stan is implied in an emotional way in each of the two scenarios, Al Gore invents non-existent the homoursporc, Cartman had invented existing to it Kukrapock.
It allowed that Homoursporc is a creature of the imaginary world in Imaginationland II, as alarming as will be described by Al Gore.
