I found several threads discussing this classic new movie, but didn't find any links to the trailer.
This trailer has no foul language and is child and preacher friendly (just kidding, "this bear is f*cked")
From Youtube:
Inspired by the 1985 true story of a drug runner's plane crash, missing cocaine, and the black bear that ate it, this wild dark comedy finds an oddball group of cops, criminals, tourists and teens converging in a Georgia forest where a 500- pound apex predator has ingested a staggering amount of cocaine and gone on a coke-fueled rampage for more blow … and blood.
Cocaine Bear stars Keri Russell (The Americans), O’Shea Jackson, Jr. (Straight Outta Compton), Christian Convery (Sweet Tooth), Alden Ehrenreich (Solo: A Star Wars Story), Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Modern Family), Brooklynn Prince (The Florida Project), Isiah Whitlock Jr. (BlacKkKlansman), Kristofer Hivju (Game of Thrones), Hannah Hoekstra (2019’s Charlie’s Angels) and Aaron Holliday (Sharp Objects), with with Emmy winner Margo Martindale (The Americans) and Emmy winner Ray Liotta (The Many Saints of Newark).
Directed by Elizabeth Banks (Charlie’s Angels, Pitch Perfect 2) from a screenplay by Jimmy Warden (The Babysitter: Killer Queen), Cocaine Bear is produced by Oscar® winners Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, The Mitchells vs. The Machines) for Lord Miller, Elizabeth Banks (Pitch Perfect franchise) and Max Handelman (Pitch Perfect franchise) for Brownstone Productions, Brian Duffield (Spontaneous) for Jurassic Party Productions and Aditya Sood (The Martian) for Lord Miller. The film is executive produced by Robin Mulcahy Fisichella, Alison Small and Nikki Baida.
I saw it last Sunday. It was goofy and over the top gory. It was better than I expected. It’s a dark comedy—certainly not for some. I thought it was funny.
Hunter Biden Heads Into Georgia Forest In Search Of Cocaine Bear
GEORGIA — After hearing that a black bear did epic amounts of cocaine somewhere in the forests of Georgia, Hunter Biden quickly gathered his camping gear and started driving south.
“So you’re telling me there’s a bear in the forest with free cocaine?” Hunter asked his Secret Service detail. “I, um, have to go. Bye.”
Though agents tried to warn him about the danger of bears high on cocaine, Hunter could not be dissuaded. “Relax everyone, I’ve talked to plenty of bears,” assured Hunter. “At least, I think that’s what happened last time I went to Ukraine. Either I partied with bears, or I went to an art class where I painted a bear. It’s a little hazy, to be honest.”

And the sequel...”Bath Salts Bear”.
Better yet...”American Brown Bear Smuggles THC Vape Into Russia, Gets Busted, Sentenced To Hard Labor, And Is Exchanged For US-Held Man-Killing Russian Bear”.
Wait a minute...I think I’ve seen that movie before.
The trailer popped on Google around midnight.
Right now, I’m listening to WRKO and Jeff Kuhner. His caller just told the audience that his son died of fentanyl poisoning. More importantly, he said his son started (at 17) with Marijuana, and couldn’t be turned around.
Actually friends of mine would never, ever watch something called Cocaine Bear.
Well, it may not actually be located in hell, but everyone there is so miserable that it may as well be.;-)
I’m not at all surprised.
In real life, the bear sadly died.
Thankfully, so did the pilot, who threw the cocaine out of the plane. I say thankfully as he was importing addiction and death.
There was a cartoon series a few decades ago
called Road Rovers, about some dogs that became super heroes. The one representing the US said he lived at the White House and his name was Hunter. Hmm, Hunter Biden...
>>Hunter (voiced by Jess Harnell) is the leader of the Road Rovers. He is a Golden Retriever from the United States of America. He lives with the U.S. President, who was Bill Clinton when the series was on the air
Naw. I think I was right the first time. You are confusing a lack of humor with haughty good taste.
That’s a shame about the bear. That wouldn’t be a good death.
I like a goofy, stupid comedy from time to time, especially with a dark comedy vibe. “Fargo” and “What About Bob?” are two of my favorites in that genre.
Hell is a better fit for me, if eternity means rubbing elbows with people who find this show funny.
BTW, if you don't want to rub elbows with such people, why are you posting on this thread?
As an aside, there's a rumor that Satan offered people in hell a day-pass to visit that part of heaven where humorless people were kept.
There were no takers. Everyone said, "No thanks, we're fine."
It’s not as “clever” as Fargo. In terms of dark comedy…it’s kind of “blunt.” But there were more than a few “laugh out loud” moments.
I am careful making recommendations to a group of people I don’t know. There are many “sensitive” folks around here. Ha ha.
