Will the movies Potfest and Super Troopers 2 be coming out soon?”
The Broken Lizard team first found a hit movie with “Beerfest,” and now they have decided to take on their next project “Potfest,” according to reports. The concept originally stemmed from a joke made by Will Nelson at the end of the film that is dedicated to the sweet joys of alcoholism. Watch the video below. According to Broken Lizard, viewers of their first film were very curious as to whether or not “Potfest” was going to actually be made into a movie to the point that BL began taking the idea seriously. We must note that nothing is concrete, but it sure would be nice to add another worthy flick next to “Super Troopers,” “Super Troopers 2,” “Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle,” and “Pineapple Express” in the vice portion of my DVD collection.
Sundance wasn’t the only thing going on in Park City this past week. Slamdance, featuring alternative style films, also takes place alongside the indie festival. This year Broken Lizard was on hand to show off their new film The Slammin’ Salmon, and the guys behind Super Troopers sat with me to talk about the restaurant biz and what goes in to making a Broken Lizard movie. It turns out the guys known for their college humor flicks are generally a normal bunch of dudes just having fun making movies. And they’re busy too, looking to finish up the script for Super Troopers 2 and actually making Potfest. Potfest is alluded to at the end of Beerfest, and it was originally intended as a joke.
