Final Cut Pro X, give it some time to grow up.

One conversation with fellow editors today was about Final Cut Pro X. Some hates it and some loves it. Give it some time for Apple to add features to Final Cut Pro X.

One person feels strongly about it.

By the way, how do you pronounce the “X” in Final Cut Pro X?

Is it “ten” as in Roman Numeral or “ex” as in extortion?

Trey Parker reaffirms that South Park will return in Fall 2011.

Shortly after the premiere of the episode titled “You’re Getting Old” some speculates that it could have been the final episode of South Park. One week ago we reported that South Park will indeed return this Fall. Co-creator of South Park Trey Parker confirms that South Park will return for the second half of its fifteenth season this Fall 2011. In recent The Daily Show with Jon Stewart episode Trey Parker and Matt Stone talked about “The Book Of Mormon” and South Park. At 3 minutes and 35 seconds mark Trey says:

… we came back and people like: “Are you OK?”
Like, “Is the show coming back?”
And we’re like: “Yeah. We have really good time doing that, and it was fun.”
You know and we don’t know what’s gonna happen but, um, we’ll figure it out in August.

There you have it folks. South Park is not cancelled.

South Park to return this Fall.

Sources unfamiliar with the matter says that Trey Parker and Matt Stone will be finishing up the second half of South Park Fifteenth Season this Fall.

Many speculates that episode titled “You’re Getting Old” could be South Park finale. While saying nothing on the record, Parker and Stone never mentioned anything about ending South Park early. Reportedly South Park will return for its sixteenth and seventeenth season.
