Crowdfundraising trailer: [SUPER TROOPERS 2: The Time Is Meow (3/24/2015) - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt0mSRLTEbQ) Wiki article: [Super Troopers 2 - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Troopers_2) Thread about the first movie: [Just watched "Super Troopers" (open spoilers) - Cafe Society - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=434505) The time is meow… well, 2017, actually. Gives me time to prepare for even more Vermont-cop shenanigans! ---

Not surprising the funding campaign was fast and successful. I’ll take it as a good sign that they didn’t go for studio funding. ---

This is not exactly new news. The Indiegogo (not Kickstarter) campaign was done over a year ago. ---

> [@Boozahol\_Squid\_P.I](#): > > Dude, you missed out on a chance of buying the cruiser they use for the movie on their Kickstarter. I’m not sure I’d appreciate it - the car (or at least the car in the trailer) identifies them as state police, but the premise in the original film is that the state trooper station was closing. At the end, the characters had joined the Spurbury Police Department, replacing the corrupt rival cops who were presumably all in jail by then. Comedy’s fine, but let’s not jettison consistency. ---

The opening 10 minutes of the first Super Troopers is the funniest 10 minutes in any movie, ever. ---

Bumped. Finally saw it last night. Not as good as the first, unsurprisingly, but still fun! Some standout moments: The dream sequence on the band’s tour bus. The captain’s largest-permissible-mustache cutout. Jim Gaffigan is again stopped for a traffic violation. The rude Canadian townspeople in the public meeting. The pileup in the strip club. Farva ordering all those drinks at one time to get his free pastry. Thorny under the influence of Canadian women’s sex pills. Farva shooting down the bald eagle. Fred Savage and the cat rescue. If you liked the first one, you should see the second. ---

Agreed: Not as funny as the first, but a worthy sequel. ---

Rob Lowe was on top form in this. It wasn’t quite up to the original’s standard… or maybe it was, just not up to the abovementioned first ten minutes of the original. But what could be? ---

I’ve watched it 3 or 4 times now. I was a bit underwhelmed the first viewing, but it’s really grown on me. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/holy-crap-theyre-making-super-troopers-2/766531.md?page=2)
