I honestly have no opinion.
I'm not that interested in it.
Maybe I'll watch it on Netflix or something.

Do we have a contender for Best Animated Film?

Did you really think the Seth Rogen Annual Stoner Film ft. Off Campus Drug House Friends was not going to get good reviews?
Are you telling me that an animated R-rated movie featuring food condiments is actually more entertaining than two DC movies and the Ghostbusters reboot?

This has to be a case of critics being idiots. There's no way it could be a good movie.

The only thing we can really do is wait and see what happens.
Having browsed Tumblr, I can sense that the users there are gonna be pissed that a film with a ton of f-bombs, racial caricatures, and a food orgy scene could possibly be any good. Then again, they're the same people eager to rip on those who disliked the Ghostbusters reboot.
I find it funny how the more critically acclaimed summer movies this year have, for the most part, been animated movies.
Wait R rated Foodfight that's also edgy is actually good?
I'm assuming it's like something from South Park or Conker's Bad Fur Day tbh now.
Okay, but the real question is which one of us is gonna see it and check if it's actually any good
Critics rave,
SAUSAGE PARTY is what would happen if everyone at Pixar had syphilis.
--Birth.Movies.Death.
The cut we saw had a number of unfinished shots and a small handful of moments weren’t even fully animated, and were just comprised of sketch-stage reference visuals.
--Collider
…people are going to hate it.

I might watch it. I do like shows and movies that are generally considered terrible from most people that I like though so I might not be the most helpful person for the majority of people on here. As long as it's actually a good comedy (Which it should considering it's made by the same person who made Shrek 2) I'm fine with it.
[ hey….I see what you did there ;) ]
Also holy fuck….I mean commonly Rogen's comedies are either put on "meh" lists or actually getting good reviews, so actually it's no surprise to see this movie getting good reviews

With a setting so simple yet so brilliant and original, it's kinda impossible to make a bad movie.
Good shit, will watch.

B-but Randomman! Food orgies upset my good Christian values! ;__;
Now I'm curious…
I'll watch it..somehow, eventually…and see if this movie will match my taste the and the flavor of what the critics say. Hahahaha…
…Okay, that's food pun was distasteful.
Ok so Jeremy Jahns thinks it great as well.
I'm honestly very surprised.
Here's the critic consensus from Rotten Tomatoes:
"Sausage Party is definitely offensive, but backs up its enthusiastic profanity with an impressively high gag-to-laugh ratio -- and a surprisingly thought-provoking storyline."
The orgy scene that was leaked in the script got leaked online. I can't provide a link as it contains balls and a hairy butthole. Look it up if you dare.

Lol Breitbart's overblowing the "controversy" surrounding this film

I'm pretty sure there would be a "controversy" with this film. It's made to offend people and be raunchy and vulgar like South Park, Family Guy, Drawn Together and Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt. I feel like the SJW's would get pissed off at this.
Saw it…I got nothing. I felt like Sausage Party really, really wasn't meant for me. Atheists will like it. Stoners will like it. I'm neither, so I didn't get much out of the experience. Some of the jokes gave me a chuckle, but few were clever.
Eh, it just needed to be better than Food Fight, and it was.
I'm still not giving it the benefit of the doubt, and I'm still not even considering watching it.
Literally everything I've heard about it makes it sound like the epitome of half-assed comedy. An animation that desperately tries to be offensive by filling itself up with sex jokes while "satirizing" Pixar and religion? Yeah, nobody's tried and failed at any of that before. The fact that people have favorably compared it to South Park doesn't give it any points in my book, since you all know I absolutely despise South Park. Nothing that's as bad as this sounds could possibly be good in any way.
Maybe it's a film you just have to be stoned off your ass to appreciate or something, I don't even know.
If there is one positive to come from this, it's that the films critical and financial success will hopefully mean distribution studios won't be as nervous to fund/showcase more mature animated movies. This shows that there is an audience willing to pay to see an R-rated animated movie.
Course whether or not that means we'll get an influx of raunchy, offensive, "lol sex" comedies is still up in the air.

Maybe modern comedy films just don't interest me. However, anything that even remotely raises the likelihood of seeing an animated R-rated Metroid film get greenlight in my lifetime gets a pass in my book.

Honestly if we do get more offensive and vulgar comedic animated movies because of this I would greatly appreciate a Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt movie to follow off the events of the show's ending and then a Season 2 which states that the ending and therefore the movie was all a joke.

This bad comedy is being supported solely because people want there to be more R rated animated features. It feels like a damned hostage situation, like, "See this terrible movie or the genre gets it!"
Personally, I think this won't see more R rated animated films, but instead, it'll see more 90's gross-out humor being incorporated into everything.

My thoughts on it that it's a movie by idiots, for idiots.
Those who have decided to see it and enjoy it, well, good for them, but I think I can/could've lived the rest of my entire life not knowing about this movie.
There's news going around that the animators were treated terribly during production. The animators were alleged to be working overtime without pay and were facing the risk of blacklisting. With this and Kubo and the Two Strings coming out this Friday, this film may be facing a huge drop in weekend gross.
