Agreed, I really enjoyed watching this. Some serious laughs were had.

I think I've watched this movie 5 or 6 times. I've watched 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked up about the same number of times, and I've watched Superbad 3 times.

Some of the features on the dvd/blu-ray are hilarious. There's a Crime Scene: Scene of the Crime Line-O-Rama with Billy Baldwin that's quite funny.

I really liked this film but I hated Russell Brand....
If someone else would have been cast I would have most likely enjoyed it more.

Just watched the dvd of this. It was as good as I rmember it being when I saw it in theaters. Much more enjoyable than the way overrated Knocked Up.

What were the extra 7 minutes on the unrated cut?

Arthur Dent

Nothing too substantive.

FSM: Differences between theatrical and unrated

Knocked Up is overrated? I don't know about that but it's a masterpiece...especially if one has kids of your own...

Arthur Dent

If I had only seen Knocked Up, Superbad, 40 Year-old Virgin, Pineapple Express, and Forgetting Sarah Marshall one time each, this is how I'd rank them:

1) Forgetting Sarah Marshall
2) Superbad
3) 40 Year-old Virgin
4) Knocked Up
5) Pineapple Express

With the exception of Pineapple Express, I have seen each of these movies at least 3 times, and would rank them as:

1) Forgetting Sarah Marshall
2) Knocked Up
3) 40 Year-old Virgin
4) Superbad
5) Pineapple Express

Knocked Up has grown on me a lot with repeated viewings. Superbad, on the other hand, only hurts itself with each repeated viewing.

EDIT: The point of this post? Maybe Knocked Up deserves a second viewing!

Sanjuro37

I genuinely laughed.

Right now I'd rank them:

1. FSM
2. 40YOV
3. Superbad
4. Knocked Up
5. Pineapple Express

Although I must say, PE was WAY better on some subsequent DVD viewings. Meanwhile KU gets staler and more derivative. Superbad stays about the same. But 40YOV and FSM are just always great. FSM and PE were the only ones that weren't hurt by the extended editions I think. Figures, they were the ones that came with both versions.

The Bus

Agreed. I saw FSM and KU twice theatrically. Superbad just wasn't as funny the second time around.

Josh-da-man

I fucking despised "Knocked Up."

It's like Operation Rescue discovered dick jokes and made a propaganda movie.

jjcool

Overrated as in it gets alot of unwarranted praise, and a lot of people think it is better than it actually is.

Michael Corvin

I'd totally agree with this list. I still haven't seen PE, so it works well at #5 right now. From 1-5 it looks like, plot-wise, they go from realistic to absurd. That may play a big role in one's rankings based on what types of movies one is into.

Goat3001

Gonna have to disagree on this point. I think Michael Cera and Jonah Hill in High School NOT getting laid is a whole lot more believeable than Katherine Heigl having Seth Rogen's baby.

I rank them like this:
1) Superbad
2) FSM
3) Knocked Up
4) 40 Year Old Virgin
5) Pineapple Express

IMO, Superbad is far and away the best. Maybe it's because I can relate to it more than any of the other ones. I still watch that movie and find a joke that I didn't hear the first 10 times I watched it.

Only saw PE once. Enjoyed it but didn't grab me with laughter like the others did on first viewing. Maybe it will grow on me after I see it again.

Arthur Dent

Very good point!

Also, Jason Segel getting Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis?!

Rypro 525

^well Seigel gets Alysonn Hannagin on How I Met Your Mother too.

riotinmyskull

segel also dated linda cardellini in real life....

Goat3001

Never thought about it but Jason Segel does get a good amount of hot chicks in his movies:

Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell in FSM (although he wrote it and I'm sure helped in the casting so good job Jason Segel)

Alyson Hannigan in HIMYM and for a brief moment the pretty hot Crazy Eyes chick.

Linda Cardellini in Freaks and Geeks AND Dead Man on Campus (and real life, good for him)

Carla Gallo in Undeclared

Not a bad list.

fernsita

I think Jason Segel is cute and charming in that "average joe" sort of way. He won me over! Funny > AMAZINGLY HOT anytime!

jjcool

Just to see the pic again in the thread, and to add that Segal wrote the much of the film about his breakup with cardellini.

spainlinx0

Saw it for the third time. Still just as funny. I love the progression of the flashbacks. As he gets over her he remembers more of the shit parts of the relationship and stops idealizing it as he gets more perspective.

Seantn

You mean a lot of people think it's better than YOU think it is.

lwhy?

I turned this on today while I was drafting fantasy football teams. I absolutely love this movie. This was my fifth time watching it. Let me just say that if God was a city planner, he would not put a playground next to a sewage system.

RichC2

Yeah I still love this movie and tend to watch it any time it comes on.

Take my eyes but not my shirt.

This stands as my favorite of all the Apatow universe movies.
