It's getting decent reviews, and it's Judd Apatow and the usual crew, so I'm guessing I'll like this since I liked their other stuff.
I was driving to school earlier, and there was a 30 minutes interview with Seth Rogan on Fresh Air. Not all about the movie, but if you like the guy you'll like the interview.
Are you watching?

I don't think it's really going to be considered action. I mean, it's like a lot of those cheesy 80's movies where there's like explosions and shit flying around but no one's actually fighting. Probably a lot of scenes of the protagonists running from bullets and stuff, but no real fighting.
Well obviously. I know they'll be firing guns (badly), but It's not like I'm expecting "blood sport".
I will see something with him in it* even if he is all stonered out. He looks to be hilarious in this.
*Except S3
If nothing else, the film will be great to look at.

But I loved Superbad and 40 Year Old Virgin, so I have a high hopes for this movie. It looks to be excellent.

Apatow does some awesome stuff, but he isn't perfect.

what is wrong with you
seriously
The ending was sort of convenient.

The ending was convenient and the rest of the movie was shit.
It just wasn't funny. It was marketed as a rip-roaring comedy (which Superbad turned out to be) and it was just...this shitty romantic comedy with swearing. I was dissapointed and disgusted by it.
Same reason I didn't see Forgetting Sara Marshall, I felt it would be the same exact horseshit.
But Paul Rudd saved Knocked Up for me. I love me some Paul Rudd.

I fail to see how 40YOV was that much different.
Main love story plotline, zany sidekicks, sex jokes, swearing... Same with Superbad, except with high schoolers. Overarching theme of getting the girl, zany sidekicks, sex jokes, swearing...
I think it's weird someone could hate one of these movie and love another one - they're all very similar (and hilarious). Though of course people prefer one over another.
Pineapple Express at least should have some action in it which gives it a new dimension.
Wednesday.
For one thing, you condensed the films into the vaguest plot descriptions possible, completely erasing the details in a way that would make it sound like American Pie and The 40 Year Old Virgin are the same movie and anyone who enjoyed the latter would go crazy for the former..

But realistically speaking rom coms of this sort do have very basic repetitive plot elements. It's the style of jokes and humor, and the actors in them, that sets them apart.
Also people that get upset when comedies have happy endings are weird. It's a comedy.

edit - oh I forgot my ultimate point! I'm extremely extremely excited about pineapple express. I know I like what all these guys can do, I know there's bits I like in the previous mentioned movies, and I know I loved freaks and geeks. and I really hope pineapple express is finally something I enjoy as much as I enjoyed that, albeit differently. I thought it was gonna be superbad but it wasn't. I'm highly hopeful for this.
