Why are they not marketing this as a Kevin Smith film?

ya I assumed this was from the Apatow crew but it's actually a Kevin Smith flick, even the trailer was very Apatow-ish

this doesnt just look good, its looks GREAT

Never thought about it before (moronically), but Kevin Smith is the perfect fit for the Apatow crew., and they're just the type of people he needs to be around as quality control. This looks great.

Quick note 'cause I'm doing homework and watching the Phils:

Saw this movie at the CMJ premiere Thursday night. Excellent movie. I'm going completely non-spoiler, so you're getting zero details about it. Haha.

Not to be too intent on bumping this, but this is a movie you need to go see. It defied my expectations by miles, and made great use of its soundtrack (including, most notably, a still unreleased Live song called "Hold Me Up" or "Lift Me Up"). Overall, the movie is more or less completely different from what I expected, and I'll probably see it again when it hits theaters.

B/C Kevin Smith has NO pull these days. This script was old as hell, and was originally supposed to be a Ben Affleck Joey Lauren Adams vehicle but he couldn't get it made. It's a Kevin Smith movie, but it is a movie because of the Apatow crew.

seth rogen hasnt been overexposed. just regular exposed and he isnt that good or deserving of it.

During the Q&A, Smith said that he wrote this over the course of a week with Seth Rogen in mind for the lead, which suggests to me that the script isn't as old as you think it is. In fact, the story goes that it got greenlighted on the strength of the title alone.

Blog entries also suggest that he didn't have as hard a time getting this produced as you think he did.

Dude might have rewritten the script with Seth Rogan over a weekend, but he was trying to get this made right after Chasing Amy.

While that sounds entirely probable, can you link me to a source on that?

Here's the closest thing I could find (first question)

http://www.firstshowing.net/2008/10/27/ ... e-a-porno/

I could be mistaken, but I thought I remembered him in interview back then saying that nobody wanted to make it. In any case, yeah, that's absolutely not the story he's telling now, and I may have been wrong about how far along the project got.

SYM · Post by **SYM** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 10:38 am

hey so who else saw this over the weekend? i thought it was pretty good, light-hearted fare. refreshing to see jason mewes back in action and elizabeth banks is even more off the hook than ever. the small cameos in this movie were great.

tehgiftofgab · Post by **tehgiftofgab** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 11:18 am

saw this last night as well as rocknrolla

i laughed more at this but harder at rocknrolla

ackbar · Post by **ackbar** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 2:57 pm

some of it was a little too shock/filth humor for my liking. craig robinson was prolly the most funny

story was meh.. but it doesn't really matter i guess

Smithee · Post by **Smithee** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 7:32 pm

saw it. didnt think it was vry good. the black guy from pineapple express is hilarrrrrious tho.

Gregg Popabitch1 · Post by **Gregg Popabitch1** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 8:43 pm

i've been using my brother as a guinea pig lately.

You might be thinking about Red State. His "horror" movie about people like Fred Phelps. I remember him saying that when he took it to the Weinstein company they didn't want to make it.
