“Hot Tub Time Machine 2” doesn’t demand much from its audience. It merely asks that you were amused by the first movie and feel like seeing another time travel comedy in which a hot tub opens up a space/time portal to other eras. It also helps if you can tolerate the company of Craig Robinson, Rob Corddry and Clark Duke in lead roles for an entire movie. If the preceding appeals to you, then today is your lucky day, as a new NSFW trailer for the sequel has arrived.
The plot this time around revolves around Lou, Jacob and Nick trying to prevent Lou’s murder after he alters time and becomes a gazillionaire. This leads to time hopping through all kinds of worlds, while also finding time to stop at strip clubs (for the film’s (un)necessary nudity) and hang with the Beatles. Nerd jokes and f-bombs fly, and as noted above, you have to be already half in the tank for this for any of these antics to resonate. But here’s to Adam Scott for popping in and providing the promo’s best moment.
“Hot Tub Time Machine 2” opens on February 20th. Watch below.
