Obligatory Apatow Posting

I guess I am supposed to be excited about this movie? It’s supposed to be funny, and maybe have some nudity, I guess?  I feel a little burned out on Apatow related stuff, I mean, he’s funny or whatever you would use for the comedic version of Luc Besson, but I just have trouble getting out of my seat for his crew.  I mean, who isn’t on the Apatow crew?  All of the comedic actor-writers out there today are connected/indebted to Judd Freaking Apatow.

Wait.

Kevin Smith is directing this?  If this is funny, I am going to hate Kevin Smith even more.  That fucking sell out.  I wonder how much of his remaining soul he had to leverage to Apatow to get Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks away from the money train.

    I’m not at all interested in this movie. Kevin Smith is not an interesting film maker (anymore?).

    Ditto. I doubt it will even have any nudity. IMDB claims it has graphic nudity, but I seriously doubt it. Kevin “Jersey Girl” Smith doesn’t have it in him. Depending on the amount of work Seth Rogen put into the script, I doubt it will even have any comedy. Since he hasn’t been credited as a writer, it will likely not be funny.

    Clerks II came out after Jersey Girl, right? I mean, it wasn’t funny but it certainly had nudity and offensive crap in it. So no worry there.

    Male nudity doesn’t count.
