Dec 5 2007R-Rated 'Harold and Kumar 2' Trailer Surprisingly Funny, Mutant-Filled
I like that in the first scene of the trailer, apparently picking up nearly immediately after the conclusion of the first film (a la Halloween 2), there are already two instances of "continuity porn." HA! They DID eat 30 burgers and four orders of fries at the end of the first movie! Ha-HA! Kumar WAS unusually preoccupied with the grooming of one's pubes! Those H&K fans do enjoy their call-backs!
Thank God they're building off the trend started by Walk Hard and taking full advantage of the particular freedoms of the "red band" trailer. "Fuck"s abound, both spoken and typeset! Plus, the debut of Missi Pyle's cycloptic, should-have-been-aborted offspring! Inbreeding enthusiasts, rejoice!
And, as terrible as the likeness may be, George W. Bush pawing the air, stoned and giggling, "'Cock-meat sandwich!' That's my favorite!" is a surprisingly humorous example of this sequel's apparent ambitions to top the original in scope while still continuing the story and rehashing beloved bits. What started as a stoner movie about eating cheeseburgers has now evolved into a diatribe on the American government.
And the ballsy title had better not change. It just might pave the way for Dude, Where's My Enlisted Son's Corpse?

I got a cock-meat sandwich... No let me rephrase that I got a cock-meat sub for all you ladies out there.

Problem with this trailer, and the overall pretty funny original is almost every fucking "awkward scenario" involves some sort of homosexual advance on them. From cockmeat-sandwich sound of it, the trend will continue. And from the straight-male side of it, the strategically-placed hamburger reeks of those retarded "Unrated edition: The version they wouldn't let you see in theaters!" DVDs that idiot consumers fall for.
Oh well, I'd see this a hundred times over whatever piece of shit Adam Sandler will be grossly overpaid for next.

Just what we need, yet another Bush-bashing lib-fest complete with ham-fisted political commentary (don't you see, we're just as bad as the terrorists!). I loved the first one and had high hopes for this, but if it's the comedy version of Lions for Lambs or (please god) Valley of Elah, then count me out.

#3 -- stop that fucking sobfest. You can listen to AM radio and hear that druggie Rush Limbaugh tell you all the black, Muslim, and homo jokes that your neo-con, fascist, pig heart desires.

Wow, you guys need to shut up with all the bullshit comments. This site isn't for people to come onto and post all of their complaints towards the movie. It's sort of odd that you all need a 13 year old to tell you how to properly comment something. Honestly, go complain somewhere else. It was a hilarious movie, and if you didn't like it, who honestly gives a shit...?
