Fun fact: Brian Cox just one day felt like being in a comedy, so he asked his agent if any were being made. That's how get got in this.

[@pete_lind]

If they want spoof movie that Fares Fares from Sweden did Kopps or go with National Lampoons Loaded Weapon, it came out after Lethal Weapon 3 .

[@jerodast]

That's amazing. The funny thing is I think it's basically a coincidence this is Broken Lizard's best movie by far. Like, Brian Cox makes it even better, but it's already very solid on its own. He got lucky he didn't end up in something more lazy or forgettable haha.

[@andrewmcmurray9580]

If you liked this movie, you should check out Beerfest next. It's the same comedy troupe, so it's all the same actors, and is equally ridiculous.

[@richardchase2960]

Super Troopers really was like...what if Jackass had a plot and was about cops? The Slammin' Salmon is another fantastic one of Broken Lizard's wild creations - and features Michael Clarke Duncan in a comedic role (John Coffey from The Green Mile).

The Dukes of Hazzard, directed by Jay Chandrasekhar stars Johnny Knoxville (all of the Broken Lizard members appear in the movie too), and also why Jay was in Jackass Number Two for the final stunt.

[@XeonAlpha]

State Troopers or Highway Patrol have jurisdiction over the entire state, and generally stick to the highways. This is due to the fact that if you are on an interstate highway you can quickly move out of the jurisdiction of city policy or county sheriff meaning they wouldn't have any authority to pull you over after you pass the city/county line.

[@RandomNonsense1985]

State Troopers are roughly the equivalent to OPP, Surete Du Quebec, or the Mounties.

[@DemNiko]

Okay, now that you know these guys (the're a comedy group called Broken Lizard), you NEED to see "Beerfest"! It's the same actors playing different characters. It's about a group of friends who train for an international beer drinking contest to win against the champs... the Germans (which are played mostly by Americans) :D If you like Beer, it's a mandatory watch :D And I would say it's even funnier than this one. Prost from... Germany 🍻

Super Troopers was always the movie of theirs that I feel like got the most notoriety and was the most popular, but personally Club Dread is probably my favorite movie from these guys. Honestly as much as I love this movie Beerfest, Club Dread, and even the Slammin Salmon are more memorable to me.

[@gasperdn]

The couple that Farva calls Chicken Fuckers are Kevin Heffernan's (Farva) parents. They knew he was going to say something outlandish but didn't know that he was going to call them Chicken Fuckers. Also Kevin Heffernan and Steve Lemme produce and star in a TV show called Tacoma FD which is pretty funny and the rest of the guys do some guest appearances in.

[@bodyjar78]

"That's so much denim"...in Australia we call that a Canadian Tuxedo 😂. Also, Club Dread from Broken Lizard is pretty funny too.

[@ganymeade275]

That is what we call it in the US too

[@CineRam]

For a movie that seemed heavily improvised, this one has a pretty solid script. I also dig "Club Dread" and "The Slammin' Salmon" by this comedy troupe. Broken Lizard (or some of them, anyway) are also responsible for the 2005 movie version of "The Dukes of Hazzard", but I can't say that I'd recommend that one (despite loving the show when I was in elementary school). Seeing Marisa Coughlan in this movie reminds me of "Freddie Got Fingered", which is extremely strange and doesn't appear to be among of your reactions. Something to consider, perhaps?

[@barbarino2000]

Super Troopers 2 has its moments. Especially when it comes to making fun of Canadians 😂

[@Provoses]

[@TenTonNuke]

I remember falling out of my seat with laughter in the theater when this came out. It was so light hearted and fun in a way that other comedies weren't. You felt like you were making a movie with them. Or watching a play.

[@martinholt8168]

This movie was the ultimate in practical effects. The maple syrup, the shaving foam in the locker - all were 100% real. Also, they accidentally used menthol shaving foam during that scene - which the actor playing Rabbit was in actual pain when he stepped out.

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

That’s sad.

[@manzell]

The syrup was tea, alas.

Broken Lizards stuff is always good for a laugh. Club Dread is an awesome slasher movie spoof and Beer Fest is a great sports movie. Also, the sequel to this is pretty good too. And the shenanigans bit always makes me laugh

[@LordVolkov]

All 5 Broken Lizard movies are fun and worth watching. Club Dread, Beerfest, Slammin Salmon, and Super Troopers 2. The great supporting actors they rope into their hilarity in each movie is worth the watch alone. Brian Cox is such a hoot.

[@TheTrueMac]

I was at Comic-Con one year and the Broken Lizard guys were doing an interview and I walked up alongside the camera and was just kinda hanging out and for some reason the actor who plays Mac (the cop running in the miata at the beginning) decided to mess with me and just locked eyes with me the entire interview. He was just being a goofball, it wasn't intimidating but he def made the moment weird intentionally lol

[@anthonydean1743]

what is fun about broken lizard (this group of dudes) is that in each movie they swap roles around. Farva isnt always Farva, if that makes sense. In Beerfest he is a pro level drinker, their team anchor, and in Slammin Salmon he is the restaraunt manager, the authority figure, everyone's boss.

This is a super simplified version, but the way police work here in the US is: Each US state is made up of counties, each county contains towns and cities. Each city has their own police force, whose jurisdiction is the city limits. Some people live outside the city limits, so we have county sheriffs whose jurisdiction is the county line. They can and do assist with city matters, but for the most part they're here to handle the rest of the county stuff. Then we have state troopers, whose jurisdiction is the state lines. Since we already have policing for our cities and counties covered, the only thing left is the interstate highways, which is what a state trooper (also called highway patrol) covers.

[@XeonAlpha]

Was coming here to say this. Police: City Sheriff: County State Trooper/HP: State + US Marshall: Country

[@marcelmoreau2733]

The thing that still fascinates me about this movie is that Brian Cox wanted to be in it. He didnt need convincing or anything, at the time of the production he was already a very well stablished dramatic actor and if i remember correctly he asked to his agent to find a silly, dumb movie and his agent found this script and the comedic enssemble behind it. Cox accepted inmediately. I think is Wire which produces those videos where actors explain their careers through their movies and a few months back they released one with Cox, he spoke hihgly of his time while shooting this movie, he has great memories. I dont know why i find all of that so fascinating but also very endearing.

[@_LilRascal_]

My favorite story about this film is that Brian Cox approached *them* to do the movie. Broken Lizard originally wanted Bill Murray for the role but they could only offer $100K. The script got shopped around and Brian Cox saw it and called them up to ask if he could do it. Apparently when he started acting he thought he’d be a comedy actor like Jerry Lewis, his hero, but after playing Hannibal Lecter in Manhunter he got typecast in serious and dark roles. Super Troopers was Brian’s chance to flex his comedy muscles. Also apparently he loves edibles

[@Kamenari37]

One of my all-time favorite movies. It doesn't fit into any box or category on its own, but makes for the perfect stoner comedy. Beerfest is the followup to this film, same guys, equally hilarious, in fact, many tend to prefer it to this film.

I got to see this movie when it first came out back in 2001, and I was all sorts of sad because of a break up at the time.
