Going to see a screening tonight. One of the few movies I've looked forward to seeing this Summer.
I'll report back later tonight.
Anyone else looking forward to this movie?

I saw it about a year ago at a screening. It's hilarious, and the end sequence is amazing.

Really liked the movie but didn't necessarily love it.
It was a bit less jokey than I thought it would be.
Still good summer fare and it was very well directed.

Kevin how does this compare to Rogen's other recent work? _________________ In regards to a certain fan wanting to cut his wrists:

I would say 3rd best. Behind Knocked Up and Superbad.

I just saw it. Definitely funnier than Knocked Up.
Pretty much an insane mix of film noir, Hitchcock, over the top action blockbusters, stoner buddy comedy. I loved it.

I just saw it, it was funny but I didn't find it that great. I actually was bored at some points.

Is this movie funny in general or only funny if you're stoned all the time? lol _________________ In regards to a certain fan wanting to cut his wrists:

Sorry if old, but just found this on Youtube after looking around for Pinapple Express stuff.
Funny as hell fake out-take between Judd Apatow and James Franco on the set of Knocked Up. WARNING - lots of bad language.

Seth Rogan is a mid-20's year old druggie who works a job where he goes and delivers bad news to people (something servant, i forgot). His drug dealer, James Franco one day sells him some of the good (bleep), called Pineapple Express. He's the only one who sells this majestic stuff in town. One day Seth is blazing it up in his car when he sees a murder. In fear, he throws the roach out the window. The killer comes out (the enemy drug dealer) and sees that it is the Pineapple Express. Seth and James Franco's characters flee in order to hide from this bigtime dealer.
It develops from there, but those are the basics.

who knew Ed Begley had it in him?
i had a great time with this movie. i wrote more about it in my blog (link in sig) but it reminded me of the 3 stooges type comedy only much more amped up. just relentless cartoon violence. David Gordon Green did a great job inserting his touch here and there but still allowing it to be an Apatow/Rogen flick. _________________ 14-5-3-12
