Oh holy crap. This looks amazing. I typically don't like stoner comedies, and when I heard the premise I thought to myself "Oh no...what have they done. MISTAKE." But no...no...NO...this looks AMAZING. On par with God's va-jay-jay.

David Gordon Green? WTF? He must be smoking more than the characters in the movie... which looks pretty great, but David Gordon Green? Is this really the same David Gordon Green that did George Washington? Or is this like the Paul T Anderson - Paul W.S Anderson mix up? I'm having difficulty processing that the same guy who did Snow Angels made this movie. But who cares. Seth Rogen rules the universe.

It's the same David Gordon Green... also made that great little flick Undertow. I'm really looking forward to this.

I missed the deluge of free sneak screenings they held when I was out of Los Angeles last summer. A shame, because apparently audiences rated it far higher than "Knocked Up" and "Superbad."

Can't come soon enough.

Wow.

Just... Wow.

"Why do you want to stay here?"

"Cause I'm already in the dumpster!"

The only part of the trailer that didn't have me laughing was the tired "jumping a car while everyone inside screams" scene. Can't wait for this one.

The part where James Franco tried to kick the windshield out was hilarious. So were the shots of Seth Rogen being an action hero. There's a scene on the Superbad DVD from this movie of Franco introducing the special pot to Rogen, but it wasn't nearly this funny and actually made me lose interest until this trailer. On a relatively-similarly-themed note, does anybody know when Fanboys is coming out?

It looks to me like they've done a pretty good job capturing that 'weed paranoia' feeling. and the sense of adventure you get sometimes. hanging out in a field, wondering how they'd get caught, coming up with insanity instead of a real idea. also, when he suddenly decides they should stop running and just stay at the dumpster, and his reasoning is that he's already inside the dumpster is just pure gold.

The song in the trailer makes the whole effing trailer.

M.I.A. - Paper Planes

Love that song.

I initially had reservations. It looks cool as hell but not as funny as Superbad or Knocked Up. But that scene where Franco kicks through the windshield had me in tears.

The MIA song is missing from the soundtrack.

The main song is by Huey Lewis and the News, and it sucks.
