UPDATED: Jay And Seth To Star In JAY AND SETH!!
Merrick here...
Merrick here...
A trailer/backdoor sales reel was developed for this project last year & made it onto the Internet.
Here's the video...
Thanks to Moriarty & Pinion_Blue for pointing us to it!
Original article below...
Jay Baruchel and Seth Rogen will star in JAY AND SETH VS. THE APOCALYPSE, as well as lending their first names to the title. It's about exactly what the title implies: two dudes facing the apocalypse.
Film is based on a comedy short from "Superbad" scribes Rogen and Evan Goldberg, which in turn was based on a story by Goldberg and Jason Stone. Rogen and Goldberg will write and produce the feature.
Got that?
More details available via THIS ARTICLE in Variety.
Wonder if this will be confused with 2012, Roland Emmerich's forthcoming ode to Earth? Probably not.

I want Guillermo's Apocalyptic movie instead.

-
but is the Ap Pack just completely taking over all of movie comedy? Variety is the spice of life, Hollywood... that's why there are more than 1 channel on TV.<P>I'm not sick of them yet, though.
-
Make so much money? <P> One movie a year.
-
... ya goat-eyed bastards!
-
You're reveling in a post that features within the first ten messages? Holy shit son, get outside and live your life. PotSmokinAlien - I think that's why I fell behind on my Rogen projects, Apatow and his gang are banging out way too many movies for me to keep up with them. I wish they'd just stuck with Freaks & Geeks.
-
That they'll hound themselves out of the business with over-exposure (which I don't want, cause I dig the route they take with their comedies). Although I don't know if Sandler is a good example. Make money? Yes. Funny in any way? Not so much in the past decade.
-
are on this project doesn't mean it's an apatow project. just fyi. i mean, it looks like it but it isn't.
-
I'm getting real tired of his schtick... I don't want to see a one trick pony come out with a movie every 6 months... Dude, take a vacation, buy a treadmill, do something else for awhile.
-
Thought it was about Jay Leno and Seth Green....hey, wait a minute...
-
But we're just saying that Rogen et al are his cronies who choose to produce way too many projects. By the way, I bet you all can't wait for the untitled Judd Apatow/Adam Sandler project that's coming your way in 2009! By the way, I'm totally serious, check out IMDB if you don't believe me.
-
where it says, "oh and its also almost entirely based on the Harold & Kumar movies."

A huge, steaming pile of turds to star in my toilet bowl
by jimmy rabbitte
Judd Apatow's next film will feature penises.<p> Lots and lots of penises.<p> Because he is obsessed.<p> With penises.
-
it seems like they only have to fart and someone somewhere will turn it into a movie pitch...<p>
-
than end of the world drama is end of the world comedy.
-
Looks like the result of two friends pissing around with a video camera one free afternoon, I.E. CRAFTLESS AND FUNNY ONLY TO THOSE INVOLVED. This is not an entertainment.
-
in Dogma? This movie might turn out to be funny but is far from original.
-
needs to do a serious supporting role in an action flick or something like that to avoid bedoming a parody of himself IMHO.
-
You hate Seth Rogen enough to wish death upon him? Wow. Did he strap you to a chair, clip open your eyes, and force you to watch his entire oeuvre, or what? Why all the hate?
-

yeah because everyone knows seth rogen loves speedballs
by birdy birdman
and not just pot ... seriously, this guy is "everything wrong with film today?" what the fuck are you even talking about
-

Hopefully he doesn't burn himself out like Ben Stiller did.
by JKrow21
Although that could give us another Tropical Thunder afterwards.
-
... they settled the writers' strike for THIS???
-
Do we Dickbloods have penises? You must have one, unless you just shit me out of your anus. LOL. I love you Daddy.
-
Yes it's me silly!!!
-
Dude Zohan was a Sandler/Apatow project as well.
-
You nominated yourself as one of the people who should have won the Lalo Schifrin cd over on the Sudden Impact talkback, yet you accuse DannyGlovers_Dickblood of being, and I quote, 'a sad, pathetic, little man', just because he wishes death on those who deserve it? Wow, that's hypocrisy for you folks.
-
What's with the Apatow gang always going by their real names? Oh that's right they don't create real characters. They're always the same person, in every movie. LOL. I love you Daddy!!
-
You told me you were wearing protection you heartless bastard...
-
I'm glad to see Jay Baruchel getting more of a starring role. I always thought he was hilarious in supporting roles and as the main character on Undeclared.
-
There is only one other African American man's penis that I would want to drip from... and that's Obama's.
-
...when Freaks and Geeks was dying a painful death on NBC? Fuckers.
-
If a candidate isn't fireproof, they really have no reason to be running. John McCain is not fireproof. So I rest my case.<p>Obama is pretty much an African American Superman, so he should win by default.
-
Obama wins by default, because he is hip, whereas John McCain just broke his. LOL. I love you Daddy!
-
G.I. Joe.
-
...this board is just dripping with Dickbloods.
-
`Cause yeah we should all be coagulated by now.

Is there anyone over 12 is this TB today?
by SONOFDANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD
Come again?
-
That the movie is being made because of this short: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehNFPShWTsg
-
REMOVE THE SPACE. "You'll be in a cold, stiff embrace staring at her dead lifeless eyes!" This could be funny.
-
...There is no blood left in Danny Glover's dick...<p> ...it has apparently been completely siphoned onto the boards at AICN...<p> ...more info later as this stunning story continues to develop.
-
People complain about TB'ers being either 12 years old, are not using the proper english grammar. Who really gives a shit? Its like that Louie CK bit about people made about gays.
-
Don't worry about it, son. Get out of your basement and sniff some toxins yourself.
-
I was joking about that with a friend of mine the other day and then we realized it would actually be amazing. The scenario we came up with was:<P>Lindsay has moved back home because her husband died.<P>Ken inherited his dad's gas station and has given Daniel a job there. Daniel got out of prison a few months back.<P>Nick and Kim Kelly got married and have 2 kids.<P>And that was our pathetic fan fiction-lite for the freaks. We didn't get around to the geeks. Too stoned.
-
Means that I have to stay in my basement until my homework is done, otherwise mother gets mad at me. But at least I get to watch my pubes growing in. I have 5 in all now!
-
I think going through puberty has made me evil, but I'm man enough (I have pubes as proof of this) to apologise to you and any other adults (or 12 year olds) I may have upset in this Talkback. There, now I can enjoy my popsicle like a good boy.
-
he seems like an arrogant bastard with no talent! DOWN WITH ROGEN!! DOWN WITH ROGEN!!
-
NOBODY WATCHED THAT SHIT SHOW FREAKS AND GEEKS BUT YOU PAL!
-
are cool
-
Which Dickblood is stronger?
-
the new GEORGE LUCAS RAPED MY CHILDHOOD?
-
Judd Apatow really didnt have many fans when Freaks and Geeks was getting cancelled. Or when the same was happening to Undeclared. He got big afterwards when he moved to feature films.
-
Is this email exchange where he absolutely decimates the creator of That 70s Show. Remove spaces. http://www.well.com/~doctorow/laundry.txt
-
I know I am. I'm also getting tired of Will Ferrel's schtick.

Won't be as cool as Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny.
by Knuckleduster
Nothing is.
-
...of self-indulgent shite.
-
i wonder what if he made a comedy with the same dark imagery? hmm.
-
Usualy starring Ashton Kutcher and Dane Cook. I'm glad The Apatow guys, the "Frat Pack", Kevin Smith & Edgar Wright are making films for people just like us(The Non-Haters).
-
You provided me with the one good laugh on this increasingly idiotic TB. Yes, you people can be as stupid as you want, no I don't have to like it. Thanks Valentine.
-
So every college frat guy loves Superbad and Knocked Up was a hit. So now anything they think of gets green lit wtf! This pisses me off because there are better ideas out there. Fuck this movie already.
-
is an enormous douche. Actually, I'm pretty sure he posts here regularly, judging from the level of insight and humour. Apatow actually went up in my books after reading that.
-

Seth Rogan and this guy Jonah Hill are two separate people?
by Alfred_Packer
Wow, all this time I thought it was the same guy in all those movies. Thats what I get for not paying attention these days...
-
who draws Palookaville is going to play Silent Bob?
-
can't blame them for trying to ride it out, but slow down a bit.
-
..scroll up, get the link and do it. Man that guy sounds like a douche.
-
He just doesn't do it for me at all. This whole grown slacker genre of comedy is boring. Apatow's universe is way overrated. I wonder if these movies will still be funny when the hip-factor wears off.
-
when i was 11.
-
I have never laughed so hard at something on the internet scree name wise. All i could think of was field of dreams.
-
LOL i ment angels in the outfield shit.
-
Apatow has talked about them in multiple interviews and I worked for Mark Brazil once...and yes, he is a HUMUNGEOUS douche...and a hardcore Christian who never leaves his office w/o his bible too...hmmm...doesn't SEEM very Christian of him to want some one to choke on their own blood. That said, I STILL find Rogen/Apatow/Seigel/Baruchel to be extremely funny. I mean...what are you guys basing this sudden hate on? Over-exposure?! I can understand that and it may even get to that point with me...but for right now, I'm just glad that the dudes I thought were hysterical when no one else was watching FREAKS or UNDECLARED are finally getting their due.
-
I can't believe all the people dissing this movie. I think this looks fuckin' hilarious! Bravo-
