Is it possible to meet the love of your life twice? First of all, let me just say that When Harry Met Sally is my all-time favorite romantic comedy and a great film in general. Having said that, the thought of a sequel to the original film starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan would just be unacceptable. However, this new trailer has me changing my tune a bit as Crystal returns as an aged Harry coping with the death of Sally. That is until he meets Sharon (Helen Mirren), an elderly woman in his nursing home who seems all too familiar. With this pairing the sequel looks like a heart-warming, charming romantic romp. Or does it?

Here's the trailer for When Harry Met Sally 2 courtesy of Funny or Die:

Okay, so we had a little fun introducing the video, but this is an absolutely hilarious approach to a potential sequel. Not only does it seem like the beginning of a sequel should one ever tragically be made, but it utilizes the ridiculously popular trend of vampires and zombies in films today along with some great homages to the original film. It also helps that Rob Reiner (the original film's director) and comedians like Maya Rudolph, Adam Scott and Rob Riggle make appearances. In addition, this just makes me want a new film featuring Billy Crystal, because I never get sick of his humor and on-screen presence. Thoughts?
