4. I suspect he is baffled by his stardom and is getting while the getting is good
which is probably not the worst idea.

35. I'm pretty sure that is part of it.
Hollywood is fickle--if you turn your back on it, it is only too hzppy to move on to a new crush. And at least he keeps his name in the papers by, like, being in movies and stuff--not with a personal soap opera.

17. I wish he hadn't made Knocked Up (anti-choice chic).
That turned me off to him. I know that was before he was overexposed, but all these movies since have been coming too fast.

18. the movies i've seen of his are Superbad, Knocked up and Pineapple express.
i think Superbad is the best one with Pineapple express coming in second. The best part of kocked up was the hotel room scene with he and Paul Rudd. I love Paul Rudd.

I will have to check out pineapple express. To be fair.

25. I did see that movie thanks to my husband.
Not my fave, but Jonah Hill always makes me laugh, and that movie was no exception.

33. Knocked Up = Anti-choice?
That's the first time I've seen that interpretation of the movie.

Just because someone decides to have a child if impregnated under less than ideal circumstances does not amount to anti-choice.

36. Anti-choice chic, I said.
They make a little tiny head nod to choice then ignore it entirely as they imply it choosing isn't an option. Granted this was a supposed comedy, and choice--actually weighing the options and making a real rational choice--is not all that funny. And if she had chosen to abort, so much for the movie. But so what? The movie wasn't all that funny to begin with. It's a loser's fantasy to wind up with a hot babe for a wife. That's what the movie was all about. The baby was the means to realizing the fantasy.

7. I got some Seths mixed up and thought you were talking about Green.
I was about to disagree...

Also, it's Rogen. I found out when I asked google who he was. :P

12. The Will Ferrell model, strike while the iron is hot
Pineapple Express was a funny good movie

He's not doing bad for a high school dropout

I am just not sure if this country is ready for two security guard movies so close together.
