Repollo
Super Troopers 3 opened Aug 7–9, 2026 to just $4.0M domestically, a fraction of Super Troopers 2’s $15.2M debut in 2018, and drew Variety’s “instantly forgettable” pan plus the franchise’s lowest-ever Rotten Tomatoes score. It joins a growing pile of struggling legacy comedy sequels — the same weekend, Sony’s romantic comedy One Night Only also stumbled. One side says audiences have moved on from Broken Lizard’s stoner-cop bit: the multiplex is for spectacle now, and R-rated legacy comedy is a streaming category at best. The other side blames a soft marketing rollout and general nostalgia fatigue rather than the genre itself, pointing to Scary Movie’s $54M revival opening earlier this year as proof audiences will still show up for the right cult comedy.
