I expected the trailer to be horrible after reading this thread. It wasn't.

It's certainly not horrible, just completely average.
 
Trailer was absolute blah. It was like those videos on YouTube of sitcoms with their laugh tracks removed - dud central. And this movie doesn't even have a laugh track :-\

:-/
 
Looks good. I will watch. Now I have two movies to look forward to this year, this and Django Unchained.
 
I'll check it out.

Rudd was the best part of Knocked Up.

And +1 to the "I Love You Man" fans. LOVE that movie.. hilarious play on various types of relationships.

Not a huge fan of Leslie Mann but she doesn't get in the way of my enjoyment of films (unlike many female comedians.. my comedy taste is sexist.)
 
Eh if i never had to see another Judd Apatow movie forever i'd be cool.

He should be making more stuff like Funny people. That at least was going somewhere different and really interesting.

IIRC Apatow said Seth Rogen does not make an appearance. If he didn't get Rogen, there's no chance in hell he got Heigl.

I doubt that he couldn't get Seth to do something, probably just didn't want to not have them both.

Though it'd be funny if we got an update that she died a horrible death or something.
 
Maybe it's because I'm near 40, I'm married with a kid, and my wife and I joke all the time about killing each other, that I thought this thing looked hilarious.
 
I'm a sucker for the Apatow movies. They never blow your mind but they're constantly enjoyable

And this has Albert Brooks so it'll be good

Review: Judd Apatow's 'This Is 40' is honest and hilarious
"This Is 40" represents the best of what Apatow is capable of as a filmmaker, and as mainstream comedy goes, no studio has released anything more honest or potent this year.

Woohoo!

Of course it's going to be good. The more gaf bitches and moans about a movie before it's released, the better it will be. See the new Judge Dredd for reference.
 
knocked up is easily in my top 3 (maybe even top 2) apatow movies, appart for the fact the story makes no sense to me. this looks very good.
 
Leslie Mann is hilarious but quite unattractive. She was great in Funny people. Movie is so underrated. Paul Rudd is the best. Movie is gonna be ca$h.

Yeah, that shit made me cringe. I know a lot of 40ish married couples with kids and the reality is not nearly as feel good as this trailer led on.

But damn, it's getting nice reviews so it might actually be decent.
 
I think Leslie Mann has aged pretty damn well. She was always hot.

I was at a Ween concert five years ago (shirt in the picture above, heh) and was standing next to a chick who I swear to god looked almost exactly like a young Leslie Mann. I thought she was flirting with me until she mentioned her husband, who was standing right beside her. Fucking husbands, I swear to god there's always a goddamn husband.
