Knocked Up

Re: Knocked Up

Seth was on Conan the other night and they showed a clip of Seth's character and his father talking (which Seth preceeded by saying: "Watch out, there's a lot of nose on the screen") and it was hilarious. Don't remember it from the trailer, either.

Father: "You are one of the best things that happened to me"
Seth: "Wow, now I just feel bad for you."

Yeah I saw that, friggin' hilarious.

I was, but used a coat hanger.

Yeah a lot of people are trying that, the Dr.'s say it doesn't work, so you might want to get a abortion or the morning after pill, it work good for Heel right Heel?

Re: Knocked Up

I think it could be very funny.

I always enjoyed "Freaks and Geeks" though it only lived for one season. And the writer also worked on "40 Year Old Virgin."

I think Judd Apatow is a comedic genius and he's been showcasing his skills long enough to prove his ability to write his own script. Should be good stuff.

Yeah I liked that show too. To bad it didn't last longer.

Re: Knocked Up

Here's what I said about it last month in the Summer Movie Preview thread:

I saw it about two months ago. Believe me when I say that it has plenty of laughs! It is a hilarious flick! Unfortunately, like Wedding Crashers, it does take a major slowdown and switch roles in the last third of the film... I mean, I guess it's not a terrible thing, but it strays a bit from the comedic aspect. A few things still save it, though.

And this movie was obviously not finished being cut when I saw it. Haha I sure hope there are some shots that they take out of the theatrical version. Some of them will literally haunt and scar some people!


But yes... I advise people to see it.

If anybody has any further questions about the movie, ask and I'll try my best to remember.

Re: Knocked Up

I'm not surprised about Blzer's comments on the last third of the film.

I read an Apatow interview and he mentions how the comedy gets darker as the film progresses.

Thinking about how "40 Year Old Virgin" became more serious as it drew to a close, I wouldn't be surprised if "Knocked Up" is similar in that aspect.

How'd you get to see it? Anything that Apatow is involved with I'm seeing. Having Seth Rogen, Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, AND Katherine Heigl doesn't hurt.

SDSU gets a lot of movies early for us to see. I was able to see 300 the night before it came out, and had opportunities to see Disturbia and Blades of Glory very early as well. I didn't realize that Knocked Up was coming out so late, but to prove that I saw it, this shouldn't be a spoiler by any means, but they continually make references to seeing or wanting to see Spider-Man 3. That's where I got lost, because the movie wasn't out yet. But, I'd say the timing for this movie coming out is a little late to make those references.

But again, there were parts in this movie that I know for sure will be cut for the theatrical version, and there were other parts that seemed to be cut too early, like the scene wasn't complete or something. I'm sure it will be a little different for you guys than it was when I saw it, but nothing major. It really is a hilarious flick.

By the way, was Katherine Heigl really pregnant?

Re: Knocked Up

Buzz going around Hollywood is that "Knocked Up" is going to be a hit with audiences. They seem to believe it will have no problem matching the box office gross of "40 Year Old Virgin"' ($109 million).

I'll be seeing it Friday night, looks to be good fun.

Re: Knocked Up

It's on my wife's must see list and the makers of the movie have a solid background for me, so I'll see it.

[ehh]

Re: Knocked Up

From everything I've heard it's a very funny movie. Funnier than 40 Year Old Virgin (which I didn't find all that funny) and could be one of the funniest movies of the last decades.

If it's like Click and Wedding Crasher towards the end I won't be too disappointed, as long as I get some good laughs from the first hour or so of the movie I'll be happy enough.

Re: Knocked Up

I'm going to see this on Saturday. I've been in the mood for a good comedy for a while. Hopefully this delivers.
