Amy Poehler Stars in Spring Breakdown

Maybe we’re the only website who view the release of Spring Breakdown as the best DVD news of the month. After all, the film stars many Frat Pack friends, including Amy Poehler, Will Arnett, Jane Lynch, and Missi Pyle. Plus, we’re kind of suckers for a spring break theme. A troubled release schedule has followed the film for the past two years and the film comes to home video without a theatrical run, save a showing at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.

Here’s the description of the film:
All-season comedy fun gets sprung in a big way when Saturday Night Live veterans Amy Poehler (Baby Mama), Rachel Dratch (I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry) and Will Arnett (Semi-Pro) gear up for one huge Spring Breakdown. Thirtysomething best friends Gayle (Poehler), Becky (Parker Posey) and Judi (Dratch) have always dreamed of being fabulous. But they never grew out of being geeks. So when Becky gets the opportunity to unofficially chaperone her boss daughter Ashley (Amber Tamblyn) to the college spring-break destination of South Padre Island, the ladies decide to turn their tragically unhip lives around and party with the beer-and-bikini set. Through keg-stands, hookups and foam parties, Becky, Gayle, Judi and Ashley are about to discover that its better to stand out than to fit in.

 The DVD and BluRay are available today and feature the following extras:

  • Additional Scenes
  • Audio Commentary: Director Ryan Shiraki and Rachel Dratch
  • Gag Reel

Now don’t get us wrong. We’re unlikely to camp out at the local big-box to get the DVD. But this release has been sitting on the shelves for two years and I for one really want to see it. That, of course, is what NetFlix is made for…
