Who I'd like to meet: HAROLD AND KUMAR ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY (Release Date: April 25, 2008)
Director: Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg
Starring: John Cho, Kal Penn Rob Corddry, Roger Bart and Neil Patrick Harris
HAROLD AND KUMAR ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY marks the triumphant return of these two hilarious, slacker anti-heroes. The movie stars John Cho (AMERICAN PIE I & II, AMERICAN DREAMZ) as Harold and Kal Penn (VAN WILDER 2: THE RISE OF TAJ, EPIC MOVIE) as Kumar, two stoners who can’t seem to get a break. Their last adventure found them traveling across country to find a White Castle hamburger in order to satisfy a weed-induced case of “the munchies.”
This time, the boys get themselves in trouble trying to sneak a bong onboard a flight to Amsterdam. Now, being suspected of terrorism, they are forced to run from the law and try to find a way to prove their innocence. What follows is an irreverent and epic journey of deep thoughts, deeper inhaling and a wild trip around the world that is as “un-PC” as it gets.

Thank you for adding my There Will Be Blood fan page. I adore so many New Line movies, and I hope the recent shake-up will settle down and we get a whole bunch of great new movies. I'm waiting anxiously for The Hobbit especially.
(I'm hoping that one of your films will someday feature Happy Rhodes, a phenomenal singer and musician whose music has never been used in film before)
