Everyone’s favorite Indio-Asian stoner duo, “Harold & Kumar” are returning to the big screen for a third edition of their ethnic and educated Cheech and Chong routine.
The folllow-up to “Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay,” (which we never did see; netflix one of these days), the best part of the Variety story that revealed the threequel news is that “the story is under wraps.”
Right, cause it’s not about smoking lots and lots of weed, right? (with gratuitous breast thrown in for good measure) Actors Kal Penn and John Cho are “expected to reprise their roles.” No shit, really? Is there a fucking movie without them? We’re kind of thinking someone was high before they wrote this story. Peter Bart should take a closer look at his people. The “Harold & Kumar” franchise are profitable little fuckers. ‘Guantanamo’ cost $12 million, earned $14.9 million in its opening weekend and grossed $38 million total. That’s a lot of bud you can buy there.
The real question on everyone’s minds however is: will NPH return??
