Personally, I think people who are against them doing another H&K film should just eat it - if the studio can get these stars back, it’ll happen. However you have to remember that studios do this ALL THE TIME - they set release dates for films they aren’t yet in a position to make. Every problem from not having the original cast signed on all the way to not having the rights to a specific property. And they still set a date. Remember what happened with Transformers 3? They set a release date of 2010 and it was Transformers/T2 director Michael Bay who said hey, hold on, no way.

I was excited to read the news yesterday about Warners Bros. announcing a third film, A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas set for release November 5, 2010.Actually I found out by someone on a message board on imdb.com who wrote about it. I was sitting around moping that I would have to wait until 2012 for another “Harold & Kumar” film. John Cho should be able to do the third film before he starts on the Star Trek sequel. I truly hope that Kal Penn can get some time off to do this film as he is the only man I can accept as “Kumar” and it better not be just a cameo appearance either. If Bob Hope and Bing Crosby can do the “Road” pictures for 22 years through their ages, so could John Cho and Kal Penn as Harold & Kumar. If Kal Penn and John Cho can not do it, you might as well get Cheech & Chong.
The first film was fantastic and written well. Lots of laughs. The second film, well it seemed to be written in bits and pieces and stuck together with scotch tape no matter how the pages fell. Any movie that has to do with Amsterdam usually fails. For the third film, a Christmas story with Harold & Kumar seems like an original idea. I think Kal Penn and John Cho make a great comedy duo.
