"There are plenty of crowdfunding campaigns that have succeeded by having a pledge level to receive the album/game/gadget/whatever that is roughly similar to what it would be priced at after release, then (obviously) having some of the higher dollar packages where you get to hang out with the band or get memorabilia or whatever. To imply that people that want to support this movie should be paying a $20+ premium on an already pricey movie ticket and "that’s how crowdfunding works" is ridiculous. Let people pay you $12-15 in advance and use that money to make the movie (in addition to the high dollar pledges for more exclusive stuff), just like a band does when people give them $12-15 to get a copy of an album that hasn't been recorded yet."


albums and films are on different planets when it comes to budgets

no kidding... album sales and movie ticket sales are also on different planets. movies (especially one like this, with merchandising potential) also tend to have more revenue streams. it obviously wasn't an apples to apples comparison, but I don't see why they're pretending that "how crowdfunding works" is by asking for pledges that amount to 3x the retail price of your project's most basic product.

I want to believe this is going to be good, but can't seem to shake the feeling it's going to be awful.

Yeah the trailer looks good but there are people whose whole job is to make that happen. Yeah I'm being the negative one here but I feel like this is gonna suck just like all of the other sequels that get made 15-20 years after the original (Mad Mad being the exception).

So I enjoyed the first movie, thought it had some funny parts, but when it came out, I felt like it was a huge waste of potential. I mean come on, a group of state troopers who don't take their job seriously? It should have been a lot funnier than it was.

So I'm hopeful for the sequel but I'm not holding my breath, because really, the first one wasn't the greatest comedy ever.

come guys, it was a funny movie, but it wasn't the funniest I've ever seen, and it could have been better.

Are you being sarcastic referring to my earlier posts?

I still stand by my opinion that it was funny but could have been funnier.

It's probably fairly safe to say that if you didn't love the first one then the sequel probably won't be for you.

Perfect marketing to have this one come out on 4/20.

I tend to disagree, RJ Rumfelt. for a low budget film, it had a lot of good wtf laughs. It had a decent plot too. These guys took their own ideas about how a movie should be made and were pretty successful.

Haha, I'm sure you think they could go back and improve Dumb & Dumber, Caddyshack, Blazin' Saddles, Airplane, etc too.

I don't understand why everybody is getting worked up over my opinion. The funniest movie I think I've seen in the past 15 years was 21 Jump Street. I thought the second one was a pretty good follow-up. I also thought The Hangover was garbage, I fell asleep watching it, so yea, my opinion probably sucks.

^Came here to post something similar. Its gross is up to 22 million, which is great, but with Avengers opening this weekend, 22 mil might be where it tops out.

Actually liked it. The 3 stooges and Good Old Fashioned Orgy guy's fake Canadian accents annoyed me, other wise I was smiling most of the movie.

Favre made the movie to me.

I love that they had the excerpt from 'the incident' during the credits.
