IF you have been hanging out for the sequel to the 2001 indie movie called Super Troopers, we have some good news.

The comedy troupe behind the highly successful film, Broken Lizard, has begun a crowd-funding crusade on Indiegogo.

“We’ve been waiting for years to do this, and meow the time has come,” Broken Lizard writes on its campaign page.

“Our moustaches are thick, furry, and authoritative. The script is written and we’re getting all antsy in our pantsy to start shooting.”

The filmmakers have already obtained permission to make the sequel and the studio has also agreed to distribute it, but the team must raise the money themselves.

“So this is how it works: if we’re able to raise at least $2,000,000 in the next month, we’ll be able to get to work on a barebones version of Super Troopers 2 this summer,” Broken Lizard wrote.

“But $2,000,000 is the bare minimum we’ll need to get into production.

“The more we raise, the more amazing stuff we can put in the movie.”

Having raised over $US1000, 000 dollars in just eight hours, it would appear the comedians will have no trouble getting the project off the ground.

Like all crowd-funding campaigns, the creators offer incentives for donations.

The incentives start from $US10 which gives donators a copy of the script along with other behind-the-scenes access.

However, for a sneaky $US35,000 you can own the squad car used in the movie.

There are a number of other incentives in-between including a producer credit, battling the stars at beer pong and having them attend your wedding.

The $10,000 donation to star in the movie has already been snapped up by one lucky (and cashed up) person.

As for how the money will be spent, the Broken Lizard team have a number of explanations.

“We’re going to rub the money all over ourselves, just like Demi Moore in Indecent Proposal. Then, we’re going to kiss each and every dollar bill. Then we’ll fill a pool with the money and do backstrokes through it. Then we’ll bury the money and agree to tell no one about it. Then we’ll turn on each other and make accusations. Eventually, we’ll be forced to put the money in a bank,” they wrote.

“But once the money is safely in the hands of a responsible adult — our producer — every single dollar will go entirely to making a kick-ass movie.”
