Hmmm.. how about recommended if you like Harold & Kumar Go To Whitecastle?

Well…being that I mentioned that this is the sequel, I kinda figured that was a foregone conclusion.

“Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay
Recommended if you like Half-Baked; Dude, Where’s My Car? or Up in Smoke”

Hmmm.. how about recommended if you like Harold & Kumar Go To Whitecastle?

That being me, I might see this mindless ball of fun(not in the theater but maybe a $1 rental from RedBox). I don’t remember the stoner angle being the story engine but I do remember it being a couple of college kids hankering for Whitecastle and hell bent on finding one. It’s more along the lines of Pee Wee’s Big Adventure if you ask me. I’m not a stoner so maybe the stoner humor completely went over my head…? Anyway, I won’t go out of my way to see it but out of the list, this is the one that at least has some “brand recognition” if you will to get me to see it.

I'm a big fan of The Station Agent and have heard excellent things about The Visitor (same director). Too bad it probably won't arrive anywhere near me for a while.

I am, if nothing else, a sucker for frog marionettes.

Wow, I cannot muster much enthusiasm for any of these, although if I had to choose it would definitely be The Visitor (or the frog one). I guess the studios are dumping right before Iron Man storms through and obliterates whatever repeat business these films could hope to dredge up.
