Anyone ever see the movie Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle?
I think it's pretty hilarious, but then again i like most "guy" comedies.

I love the part where Neil Patrick harris steals Harold's car.

and the part where they play the Extreme Sports Punks' cassette tapes.

and the riding the cheetah part is cool too.

1. I was suprised
I thought it was going to be bad, but I saw it on cable and it was okay.

2. It's great!
I had so much fun watching that movie. And I wasn't even high!

That said, I don't think it really holds up too well over repeated viewings. And I wonder if it benefited from low expectations.

Still, it was awfully fun.

I love the T-shirt "I Love Bush" (subtitle: "The Pussy not the President")

3. Extremely funny movie!
On a scale of 1 to ten, with 1 being not so extreme and 10 being extremely extreme, I give this a 9.5!!!

7. My favorite scene is where they steal the extreme sports' guys car
And then discover the "music" that they listen to.

"Dude, that is NOT extreme!"

6. what no spoiler alert??
I saw it and thought it was funny and also touching on how it treated racial stereotyping.
It was a surprise.
I don't know if will stand up as well as "Office Space" with continued viewing

8. I was laughing hysterically at the end
about the "realistic sketches" of the perps drawn by the cops.

Making fun of racism is awesome. Racists deserve ridicule.

I also love how they treated the main characters as very unstereotypical. Just two normal guys who happen to be korean and indian.

9. Well after your post, I guess I don't have to see it
I already know all the highlights. You really should've put a spoiler alert on that thing.

12. Hilarious
I saw it for the first time recently on cable. I haven't laughed so hard or so much in a long time.

13. I was really surprised
I didn't think it would be that funny, but it was hilarious. My little brother and I were in tears laughing so hard.

All I can say, is that raccoon in the car was just wrong. :)
