More Harold and Kumar
Filed under: RumorMonger, DIY/Filmmaking, FanFilms
It looks like Harold and Kumar are coming back to a theater near you, however, this time they're not going to White Castle. The highly anticipated (depending on how stoned you are or were) Harold and Kumar go to Amsterdam appears to be on the fast track and Kal Penn (Kumar) told MTV that discussions are definitely underway. Totally awesome! Apparently there's an option that's about to expire forcing the filmmakers (who own the rights to the franchise) to put down the bong and get this movie made.
Penn also let on that a third Harold and Kumar may happen depending on how well the movies do in theaters and on DVD. He says, "I heard they were thinking about Vegas. John [Cho, who plays Harold] and I are both, obviously, committed to doing at least two more, but whether or not they happen is not up to us." Personally, I enjoyed the White Castle flick (kind of), but I cannot see them holding onto this shtick and keeping it funny for two more films. What do you think?

Bah, they could stretch it out for two more movies as long as Neil Patrick Harris is back portraying "himself". Harris is already stretching that "character" out as Barney in *How I Met Your Mother* on CBS to much success. Although I think they should just call the show *Barney* since it would be even better then, but alas...
Bring on the Harold & Kumar trilogy! And then maybe they can bump into Jay and Silent Bob while they are at it too...

The movie was awesome and went down as easily as one of those sliders. I hope Kumar remembers to take a suitcase of White Castles to Amsterdam. The movies should be like the sliders, four will satisfy but sometimes you have to feed the crave. I predict six in the series.

Well, as Amsterdam goes, it should be a funny movie. Amsterdam is in fact home of Hightimes Cannabis Cup. However, Marijuana possesion in vegas will get you 20 to life. What ever happens im sure the movies will be as entertaining as the first as long as the directors dont get sloppy.

harold and kumar go to white castle was AMAZING AMAZING... funniest movie ever. and i'm really excited for Harold and Kumar go to Amsterdam. I am a little skeptical about the Las Vegas movie.. but maybe somewhere like New York City or Chinatown.
But I'm really excited anyways, cause Harold and Kumar go to White Castle is my favorite movie.. ever.

Movie in Amsterdam... yes, Deuce Bigelow,also try Eurotrip, it was hilarious when they wento to this "Jamaican Bakery", they thought they were magic brownies and eat them until thought they were stone off their minds. Ended up to be regular brownies, that was classic. Harold and Kumar was an AWESOME movie, but it based itself in the illegality of Marihuana... hmmm, I only wonder what troubles can they get in Amsterdam.....
