Seth Rogen as the Green Hornet? Never! Van Willians as the Green Hornet! Seth Rogen as the Bozo!

Oh God was the pink panther an awful film. Made me lose a lot of respect for Steve Martin. You used to be able to count on him and expect his movies to be funny every single time.

What happened to the Steve Martin I came to know and love?

Obviously the tv show still has a wide impact for a French filmmaker to do a tribute using "name" stunt actors. Once you've seen Manu Lanzi and Patrick Vo as the Green Hornet and Kato in the "Le Frelon Vert" fanfilm by Adrian Poitrimoult, you wonder why Sony even bothered with Rogen's concept- the original take still works updated in modern style. There was no need to "Pink Panther" it.

I like Seth Rogen in anything, but Pineapple Express.

Wow, I had no idea Rogen said that. Damn that's screwed up.

I'm a young'un, but I have always enjoyed what would be classified by this generation as "classic" properties. I love GH, and I would love to eventually see a good, straight up action type GH film.

It was Rogen in the first place who said there were maybe 3 GH fans, leaving the way clear for him to re-invent the character. That was the thrust of his pitch to Sony. Not only did that alienate a fanbase that DID in fact exist, but clearly the moaning was loud enough to give Sony second thoughts once Rogen's box-office mojo started to decline. So I'm an oldster at 46. I remember who Van Williams is.

It's crazy, I've been commenting on similar posts to this one all over the web, and this is the only place I've seen that hasn't broken out into an all out Seth Rogen bashing. It's shocking to see so many people come out and totally trash the guy. I'm all for dissenting opinions, and I could care less if people don't like what I like, so it's really not that big a deal. Just surprising it hasn't happened here.

Oh, and the bashers always seem to get personal and start calling each other retarded and stupid for feeling one way or the other. Childish stuff. I'm glad it hasn't happened here (hope I didn't just start something!) All of this just goes to prove my theory that Seth Rogen is one of those guys that you either love or hate. No middle ground on this guy.

Im relieved that they pulled the plug on Rogen. For a while I had thought it was a joke. Good thing they thought so too. Green Hornet should not be done now. Not with Marvel and DC spitting out films for the next few years. This movie wouldnt be taken seriously. Especially with Knocked Up himself.

disappointing.. wasted my efforts hyping up my friends on the movie. sure no one knows who GH is. but the asians sure do know who Kato is. and i bet with Rogen and Chow, you've got to have a bankable movie. its a real shame it turned out this way. 1st the creative difference, now this! BUMMER! also, i think a good action/comedy would do well for an unknown char lik GH. think get smart n nt the spirit.
