Phyllis, I saw KNOCKED UP at the movies and then again on a bus ride. You're right that watching it with an audience is different. I didn't think it was hilarious by any means, but I did laugh at some of it. When I saw it on that bus, with most everyone asleep, I couldn't believe the kind of movie it is. Particularly the Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann storyline is insanely absurd, unlikable, and plain sexist. I also think that Seth Rogen plays the exact same part in every movie he does, and I don't think it's a funny part he plays. "A drama about a bunch of nasty people who are really nasty to each other" is a good way to describe it.
Joe, I couldn't agree more about the stupid lines they used for the trailer. I mean, the Jonah Hill line about Harry Potter is so so so dumb. When the previews are painfully unfunny, I can't imagine how the movie actually is.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
