Pineapple Express

Looks brilliant.

"Hey look, it's like my thumb is my c*ck"
 
The best part is when he tries to pull off the cliche action movie move of kicking the windshield. That was hilarious, this looks to be great.:up:
 
Goddamn the trailer looked good!

"Thug life." :woot:
 
wow. The trailer is awesome. Looks like another hit for Seth Rogen and Judd Apatow. And it looks like an non-Spidey hit for James Franco who NEEDS one!

My favourite part.
 
I just remembered, Rogen and Franco were on Freaks and Geeks together!
 
The trailer is pretty funny, i get the feeling this won't have as large an audience as the other Apatow movies and be more of a cult fav.

I disagree. This may be their biggest hit. It'll attract the comedy and action audience. The combination of action and comedy has worked before for comedy actors. Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor had a big hit with Silver Streak. Eddie Murphy had a HUGE hit with Beverly Hills Cop (the highest grossing movie of 1984 - - I kid you not), The Blues Brothers was a big hit for John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase had a big hit with Fletch, and Bill Murry with Ghostbusters.
 
"I think maybe we should stay here!"

"WHY!?"

"Because I'm already in the dumpster."

This film looks like a great throw-up to action-stoner comedies of yester-year, filled with characters who have no idea how to act in these situations. Kicking the windshield like that will not actually break it off, it will probably get your foot badly hurt. As we have seen.

Also, I thought it was once weird that David Gordon Green is directing this (see: Trailer for Snow Angels) but now I kinda get how he is putting his stamp on this. It looks pretty inventive, even in terms of action and shots, etc...

Looks hilarious.

I don't think it's gonna have much in the way of great action, it gave me more of a Clerks vibe, it's a stoner movie and wont have the broader appeal of Forgetting Sarah Marshall IMO.

I hope it'll have a larger audience than "Walk Hard", at least. Besides, you're underestimating the size of the stoner audience. I forsee a lot of 4:20 showings.

Like all Apatow films they're not going to show all the best stuff.
Like how did all that blood get on the windshield?

Apatow made Seth and Evan Goldberg write a "Weed action movie" and we're going to get it. The Apatow audience plus any Spidey fans will probably check this out with the stoners.
 
I don't know about the Spidey fans. James Franco hasn't had much financial success outside the franchise. If this movie is a success its a success he NEEDS!

Franco has been in crap or smaller films that won't attract the mass audiences but you're right he needs this.

But this film sold Sony on Rogen writing/starring in The Green Hornet.
 
i thought the clip on superbad was a little lackluster, but this trailer really made me do a 180. really hyped for this flick now. :up:
