Harold and Kumar Ride Again

Haroldandkumar

Of the various movies recently announced as the lineup for this year's SXSW Film Festival, I am particularly excited about Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay. And if I have to explain why, you wouldn't understand.

You better believe NPH is back, as well.

The movie opens wide April 25. Waiting is going to feel like forever.

If you happen to be headed to SXSW Film, you can also see, among other selections,

  • Mister Lonely, directed by the warm and cuddly Harmony Korine, starring the warm and cuddly Werner Herzog, about a Michael Jackson impersonator;
  • Run, Fat Boy, Run, with My Man Simon Pegg, about an aspiring marathoner;
  • Scorsese's Stones documentary, Shine a Light;
  • Stop-Loss, Kimberly Peirce's Iraq drama, infamous for introducing Ryan Phillippe to Abbie Cornish; and
  • Morgan Spurlock's Osama Bin Laden movie.

And if you can't get in to see Harold and Kumar (or Morgan Spurlock), there's always Super High Me, Doug Benson's participatory pot doc.

Kal Penn, while not starring on House, is now teaching a class at the University of Pennsylvania. http://asam.sas.upenn.edu/courses.php

So, Kal Penn spoke at Johns Hopkins today!
Who knew Kumar would be for Obama? (OK, maybe I did.)

"Kal Penn will speak on Friday, Feb. 8 in the Arellano Theater in Levering from 12:20 to 1:20 p.m. Penn has appeared in 'Harold & Kumar' and 'The Namesake,' and can currently be seen on 'House.'
Sponsored by JHU Students for Barack Obama and JHU Votes."

I guess his class is a Tuesday/Thursday one, then. Haven't seen him on campus, but then I don't get out of the office much on my lunchbreaks.

Oh, I hope he shows his students Where's the Party Yaar!

Harold and Kumar is one of my favorite movies of all time, no lie. CANNOT WAIT for the sequel!

Ooh, if you have a pass to the Scorcese movie, I'll give you my Volvo.
