The 10 Best Cartman Characters in South Park’s History
On this season’s premiere of South Park, Eric Cartman took on the persona of Edward Snowden as he attempted to infiltrate the NSA. As a tribute to Cartman’s dedication, we’ve compiled a list of his best character personas of all time.
10. The Incredible Hulk
Last season, the South Park gang decided to dress up as The Avengers for Halloween. Stan as Captain America, Kenny as Iron Man, Kyle as Thor and Cartman as the Incredible Hulk. After being mistaken for Honey Boo Boo and Bruce Vilanch, Cartman wants to unleash his Hulk-like anger out on some thieves attempting to rob a Redbox vending machine. Once the Avengers arrive on the scene, the group quickly realizes that they might have made a huge mistake by confronting the burglars.
9. Gandalf
In season six episode 13, “The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers,” Cartman and the group decide to reenact the Lord of the Rings trilogy after watching one of the movies. However, Randy and Sharon also rented a pornographic movie the same night and accidentally placed it in the Lord of the Rings box. Randy sends the boys out on a “quest” to get the video back from the store so he can switch them back. Led by Cartman as “Gandalf,” the gang must get the dirty video back to Randy and keep it out of the hands of the sixth-graders, meant to be the Ringwraiths.
8. The Dwarf Character From World of Warcraft
In the South Park episode “Make Love Not Warcraft,” Cartman and the gang become obsessed with playing World of Warcraft. Unfortunately, an evil unknown player is making life in the World of Warcraft a living hell as he continuously slaughters all the defenseless players. Cartman, playing as the dwarf character, devises a plan with Stan, Kyle and Kenny to take out the player and Cartman unleashes some major “pwnage.”
7. Jennifer Lopez
For his class presentation on cultural diversity in the arts, Cartman does a ventriloquist act, using his hand to represent Latin recording artist Jennifer Lopez. However, the judges, and everyone else in the world are convinced that Cartman’s hand is the real J-LO, including her fiancé at the time Ben Affleck. Music executives decide that they like “Ms. Lopez” better than J-LO and the real Jennifer Lopez becomes infuriated. After she attempts to kill “Ms. Lopez,” Cartman reveals that she is actually a con man named Mitch Connor who then dies from supposedly taking a cyanide capsule. Jennifer Lopez’s career is ruined by Cartman and she is forced to work at a La Taco restaurant while on probation.
6. Bane from The Dark Knight Rises
After all the men in South Park believe that the UPS man is sleeping with their wives, they take it upon themselves to dress up like Bane from The Dark Knight Rises to scare him out of town. To protect his own mother, Cartman installs a security system but realizes its ineffectiveness to stop criminals from breaking into his home. Cartman implements his own plan by dressing up as Bane to take out the Wolf Home Security salesman. “It doesn’t matter who we are. What matters is our plan.”
