Today we get our first listen of the Pineapple Express theme song written and performed by Huey Lewis. And yes, it absolutely lives up to the hype.

A look at two entirely unoriginal “Pineapple Express” posters.

The future is so bright for Seth Rogen that he’s going to need Aviator sunglasses. He’ll also need a taser and an ill-fitting pair of Dickie’s to step into the role of a mall rent-a-cop in the tentatively titled Observe and Report. Of course, it’s weird to say that his future is bright when, you know, his present is pretty blinding as well.

Eric Bana is no stranger to comedy. Does that surprise you?

It looks like comedy duo Seth Rogen and Judd Apatow may have woken up, smelled the coffee, and realized that using Jonah Hill in every other freaking comedy that they produce is not the greatest idea in the world.

McKay, who helmed the brilliant first film four years ago said that Anchorman 2 is happening “for sure,” unless they can’t get the cast together. However, “They’re dying to do it.”

It’s a dark day for me. A tragic, listless day that makes me want to watch Bloodrayne to remind myself that life isn’t that bad. But it is, because today’s the first day in my life that I’ve read about a new Judd Apatow movie and groaned instead of jumping for joy.

The DVD will probably have some great unrated special features, and I’m sure that Jason Segel’s penis is going to pop up again in them… more than once.

Welcome to FSR’s newest weekly feature in which I break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of what Hollywood has to offer.

According to Yahoo! news, Judd Apatow, who has become a juggernaut of comedies in the last three years with films like Knocked Up, The 40-Year Old Virgin and Superbad will be honored as Comedy Person of the Year at the Just for Laughs comedy festival in Montreal, July 10-20.

Generally, stoner comedies can be characterized by their inaction, or the lack of motivation that their characters have once they have smoked up all the green. But Pineapple Express seems to be more about getting some action, making it the first stoner action comedy — at least as far as I can recall this early in the morning.

So here we are again with another Judd Apatow movie. But it’s different this time. Drillbit Taylor stars Owen Wilson and it’s PG-13. But that shouldn’t stop you from knocking a few back… if you’re of age.

It looks like the filmmakers dipped into a time vortex and plucked Jonah Hill and Michael Cera from their freshman year in high school.

I really loved this one, it was one of my favorites of the festival and I can’t wait until all of you can see it.

David Gordon Green’s upcoming stoner comedy gets a green-band trailer that looks just like the red-band one, just without the cursing.

Judd Apatow’s camp comes through again with a comedy that is a lot smarter than you would initially think… [Grade: B+]

Two funny dudes and his wife are the primary cast in Judd Apatow’s return to the director’s chair following Knocked Up.

People just aren’t talking enough about this movie…

I just came from the WonderCon preview panel for Forgetting Sarah Marshall where they showed six minutes of footage (a mix of old and new), and I’m still laughing.

Judd Apatow’s next film gets a red-band trailer, that has been subsequently leaked online. Take a look!

Rumors are now swirling that Fanboys could once again be getting re-cut and re-shot. Just when we thought we might get to see it…

The biblical comedy from director Harold Ramis and producer Judd Apatow now has its hottie.

Jack Black talked to Collider this week about Be Kind Rewind, but ended up spilling some beans on Judd Apatow’s “biblical” comedy.

With multiple storylines, a funky theme song and animated credits, Superbad would have made a good T.V. show. Imagine Freaks and Geeks with South Park crudeness.

Our resident angry-man Robert Fure examines why nothing ever seems to be new in Hollywood — maybe because its not.

We just can’t get enough of all things Apatow these days…

The Judd Apatow invasion continues. This time its a possible break-out film for another Freaks and Geeks alum.

Somehow, Judd Apatow and his gang of comedic thugs never fail to entertain…

With election season in full swing, it’s no surprise when news of someone ‘clarifying’ a statement hits the fan.

FSR caught up with rocker Dewey Cox (John C. Reilly) as he kicked off his “Cox Across America” Tour at the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. He went on the record to say “Motherf*cker.”
