Those are all Apatow films in different ways. Only two of them were actually directed by him and Superbad wasn't even written by him. The only credit he has for all four is producing.

In about a month and a half you'll be able to add Forgetting Sarah Marshall to the list of produced movies. although it certainly isn't the best.

I really wanna see FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL. I have a big crush on Kristen Bell, it'd be awesome if this movie does for her what KNOCKED UP did for Katherine Heigl.

I love Kristen too. She's good in it Ray, and its not a terrible movie, it's just not great. And i doubt it will get nearly the amount of attention that Knocked Up Got. so don't get your hopes up.

if you like Apatow, you should rent the complete "Freaks and Geeks" episodes, they are so funny.

I agree with Brooke2, FREAKS AND GEEKS rules. The characters are amazing and it is short enough to be enjoyed by movie-lovers as well as TV freaks.

My favorite Apatow projects are "Freaks and Geeks" and "Undeclared". The movies are just OK.

40 Year Old Virgin, hands down!

Superbad, Walk Hard, then 40-year-old Virgin. Haven't seen Knocked Up.

I think half the reason I liked Walk Hard was that there are three actors from "The Office" in it...and that made me quite the happy little lady.

The 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN, with the first 45 minutes of SUPERBAD a close second.

My favorite part of "Knocked Up" is Rogan and Rudd in Las Vegas - seeing Cirque du Soleil, and then back in the hotel room.

Freaks and Geeks was absolutely brilliant. The rest were not really worth watching, in my opinion. If I had to choose one that was the least unfunny, it would probably be Superbad. If it weren't for Jonah Hill's character, I probably would have loved it. Like Seth Rogan's character in Knocked Up, I just didn't think there was a single redeeming quality that justified the friendship or romantic relationship in the story.
