A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas (2011)
Two of our favorite stoners, Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal ('politics') Penn) are back from their White Castle run to take on the holidays...in 3D! Neil Patrick Harris returns for the new adventure along with Patton Oswalt and Danny Trejo. Time will tell where it ranks on the all-time list, but in the meantime, here are 20 of our favorite modern (and a couple classic) 'Bro'-Trip movies!

Year One (2009)
The buddy adventure comedy gets re-invented once again in Year One starring Michael Cera and Jack Black as a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers on an epic journey through the ancient world.

-
Up in Smoke (1978)
The oldest pair of comedy vets on our list, Cheech & Chong starred together in this 1978 classic as well as a number of other '80's movies, all with a 'green' theme! (And I don't mean environmentally-friendly!)
-
Dude, Where's My Car? (2000)
"Dude! Sweet!" Seann William Scott and Ashton Kutcher are Chester and Jesse, two bumbling stoners who wake up and can't remember where they parked their car. An epic journey of street gangs, transexual strippers and aliens ensues!
-
Dumb & Dumber (1994)
Brainless best friends Harry (Jeff Daniels) and Lloyd (Jim Carrey) travel across the country to try and return a suitcase full of money to its rightful owner. The plot really doesn't matter as much as seeing Jim Carrey in one of his earliest roles in all of his wacked-out glory.
-
See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989)
Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder paired up for a total of 4 movies together playing best friends who get into all sorts of trouble: Silver Streak (1976), Stir Crazy (1980), See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989) and Another You (1991).

This comedy duo (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) started out together killing zombies in Shaun of the Dead (2004) before taking on the cop genre in this 2007 action/comedy.
-
Clerks (1994)
While Clerks (1994) was their first, Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) have paired together in a number of director Kevin Smith's movies as well as in Scream 3. While Clerks is not neccessarily a traditional 'Bro'-Trip movie, these two always seem to be trippin' on Snootchie-bootchies!
-

There have been 4 Lethal Weapon movies pairing Murtaugh and Riggs together, played by Danny Glover and Mel Gibson. A couple of mismatched L.A. police officers, they've tackled everything from drug smugglers to the Chinese Triad gang.
-
Swingers (1996)
"Vegas, baby! Vegas!" That's the destination for Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn in this 1996 classic that put them both on the map. "You're so money and you don't even know it!"
-
Men in Black (1997)
Mr. Jones and Mr. Smith team up together as top secret agents who monitor and police alien activity on Earth in this 1997 sci-fi, action/comedy and its sequel, 2002's Men in Black II. Rumors are that there is going to be a Men in Black III to be released in 2011.

-
Superbad (2007)
While their 'Bro'-Trip only consists of one crazy night in L.A., best friends Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) make the most of it by crashing a party, stealing some alcohol and running from the cops, all just to impress a few girls.
-
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)
"Let's go someplace like Bolivia." That's the destination in this 'Bro'-Trip starring screen legends Paul Newman as Butch Cassidy and Robert Redford as the Sundance Kid. Also considered to be one of the top 'Bromances' of all time, this one is a must-see.
-
Wayne's World (1992)
"Excellent!" Based on a '90's SNL skit of the same name, Mike Myers and Dana Carvey are Wayne and Garth, 2 slacker friends who have a public access TV show run out of Wayne's basement. Ok, so there's no real road trip in this movie, it's just fun to have Wayne and Garth on the list! "No way! Way!"
-
Never on Tuesday (1988)
And finally, a little known comedy 'Bro'-Trip starring a very young Andrew Lauer and Peter Berg in their first real film roles as two guys from the mid-west travelling to CA to pick up girls when they get into an accident and become stranded in the desert with the incredibly hot Claudia Christian...who happens to be gay.
