    Good movie. I laughed. Franco and Rogen work really well together. And I love Craig Robinson from The Office in everything he does.

    that dude seems to play the same character in everything he does and hes always great.

    The best line of the movie hands down was "FUCK Jeff Goldblum"

    Just got back from this, some really funny shit. I really loved James Franco...kind of made me think of Floyd (Brad Pitt) from True Romance.

    I read somewhere that the writer got the idea of the movie after watching True Romance. He wanted to make a movie about Floyd and how he would react when put in the situation that the rest of the characters in the movie were in.

    I saw it this weekend and I got to say it was the funnist Apatow movie yet, for me. Pure genius.

    I was distracted for awhile because I just though Franco was doing a Brad Pitt imitation from True Romance, like a person above suggested. However, he did really well - I never realized the guy had that much charisma.

    The movie was funny, but it could have benefited from about 10 minutes or so chopped off. It dragged on during the second half, but that seems to happen in the "bromance" movies. Wedding Crashers had a similar vibe, but I thought that movie was great.

    I'd put Wedding Crashers and Superbad over this flick, but it was very funny.

    I LOVED it! I've never laughed so hard in a theatre. I missed many jokes because I was laughing from the joke before. Personally, I put it ahead of Superbad, but everyone has their personal preference. James Franco and Seth Rogan had amazing chemistry. Franco was fantastic! I read that Rogan wrote the role of Saul for himself, but after the table read realized that the role would be much funnier played by Franco. Great move! I can't imagine anyone else in the role.

    My friend heard somewhere that Rogan has been asked to write a sequel to Superbad, but is reluctant to do so. Apparently, there is discussion, however, of writing a movie where characters from both Superbad and Pineapple Express meet. For example, the kids from Superbad buy weed from Saul and mayhem ensues.
    No time to be void or save up on life. You got to spend it all.

    I'm trying to pick where The guy with the Daiwoo was from.. what movies is he in... he is in one where he is disgusted by someone as a brother in law....


    He's in Heartbreak Kid and his name is Danny McBride. Funnier than shit, a true up and coming comedy star. He's in Tropic Thunder too and plays a hilarious part.

    i saw it last night and thought it was a cute (albeit violent) bromance movie.

    the idiots in the back row were lucky i didn't unleash any Rogen/Franco fighting style on them for talking through the whole damn movie.
