[You know that feeling that comes over you when you get exactly what you desire?](http://www.haroldandkumar.com/) The movie poster: What Would NPH Do? With NPH up in the sunlit clouds riding a not-so-invisible unicorn 🙂 And it’s got Rob Corddry! Anyone know whether the Age-Restricted Trailer/information is real? It wouldn’t take Rhythmdvl Doe data, but kept telling me to try again. I followed the link to learn more about “Integrity Services,” but it looked like a real (albeit spooky) data mining company – asking to ID myself with “government issued identification.” :eek: I know it’s only a movie trailer, but I _like_ anonymity on the net, and it seems, I don’t know… odd for this movie. Anyway, maybe they won’t have me sign up to see the actual flick! ---

I did the age-restricted trailer using my same old Internet alias, Jim Jones. Worked perfectly. Some dirty words, some nudity. Looks like it could be fun, but I’ll be renting. ---

Okay, I wasn’t super (pardon the pun) high on the first one, but this…this has my curiousity piqued. ---

I couldn’t get the restricted stuff to work. Maybe I’m missing something really obvious… ---

You can see the restricted trailer [here at worstpreviews.com](http://www.worstpreviews.com/trailer.php?id=562&item=1). Has Neal Patrick Harris coming out as gay affected his role (as himself)? “I’m gonna rock out with my cock out!” ---

This looks pretty good. For logistical reasons this looks more like rental type movie for me. Say, is rampant drug use OK for 6 yr old kids to see? lol. ---

I couldn’t find a thread so I resurrected this one: The movie had its moments, but on the whole it was just way too raunchy for me. Saying bad words for bad words sake, and showing naughty bits for naughty bits sake just doesn’t do it for me. [SPOILER] And going from Miami to Texas via Birmingham AL, especially when you’re pressed for time, just doesn’t make any sense at all. Wouldn’t you just stay on the interstate closer to the Gulf Coast? God rest the soul of Neil Patrick Harris though. 🙂 [/Spoiler] ---

When the first one came out I was in Guantanamo Bay watching a movie about New Jersey. Now I’m in New Jersey and I can watch this movie about Guantanamo Bay. Weird. And Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy. ---

I’m not knocking it, I haven’t seen all of the first and liked the bits I saw, just curious- has there ever been a sequel that had a major theatrical release when the original made under 20 mil? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/harold-kumar-escape-from-guantanamo-bay/429460.md?page=2)
