Knocked up - Funnier than the trailer

Re: Knocked up - Will the movie be as funny as the trailer?

Rogen (about to become the third Freaks and Geeks alum to become household names... James Franco and Linda Cardellini... best show ever. Of course, that was Apatow's baby) to me could play Jeff Garlin's brother in a film.. .their style is similar.

Two other F&G stalwarts, Jason Segel and Martin Starr are in the film.

For fans of the show, check out Starr's imdb. Starr played ubergeek Bill (Seven Minutes in Heaven may be the best episode I have ever seen on network TV).

He's trying to pull off an O'Connell-esque transformation from pathetic-looking kid into decent-looking adult (he ain't gonna quite catch Jerry, but it's still remarkable)

Anyway, long live F&G.

Amen...absolutely my favorite show.

Another hottie, the drunk-driving chick from 40-Year-Old...

Major points for using the Wu Tang Clan's "Shame On A N---a" in the trailer, one of the truly fun drunken sing-along rap songs of all time.

It was actually french toast, not pancakes. And yes, I think I've seen this movie too many times.

I don't think it is a coincidence she's married to Judd Apatow.

That would be the lovely Leslie Mann. You can also see her in a criminally underrated "The Cable Guy." Hands down Jim Carrey's best movie.

 

Saw Knocked Up last night in an early screening.
To say I was pleased is an understatement. I laughed long and hard for most of the show.
I can't even count how many jokes were missed because the entire theater was laughing and you couldn't hear what the actors were saying.
The movie is long, over two hours, but worth every minute. When it opens, go see this movie.

 

Seth Rogen has another movie coming out this summer, called "Superbad". It's about a couple of nerdy high school kids trying to get beer so they can go to a big party. The kid who was George Michael on "Arrested Development" is one of the leads. The R-rated trailer is hilarious....http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/superbad/

(NSFW and you need a driver's license to see it)

 

Hope you're right, or somebody's gonna have to bust your cherry with the ignore function. ;D

 

Hot, yes, but Elizabeth Banks lapped the field in that movie. Good frickin God. She was at unholy levels of hotness...especially when she's in the jacuzzi. Criminy.

 

Holy shit, the R-rated trailer is good.
