Starting in 2004 with the sleeper hit, Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, a different kind of studio comedy was born. Not only were the two leads refreshingly diverse but they were able to comment on social/racial issues while injecting laughs aplenty about stoners and road trips. It all goes up a notch with the highly-anticipated sequel, screening at this year's SXSW. The cast and crew of these innovative comedies will sit together to discuss the ways in which they've made some very smart satire out of the most unlikely places.
