Jonah Hill, Jason Schwartzman and Akiva Schaffer (of Digital Shorts fame) teaming up for THE ADVENTURER'S HANDBOOK!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Universal apparently forked over more than a million bucks for THE ADVENTURER'S HANDBOOK written by Jonah Hill, Matt Spicer and Max Winkler. It looks like a package deal with Jason Schwartzman and Hill attached to star and Akiva Schaffer looking to direct. Schaffer helmed the underappreciated HOT ROD and directs most of the SNL Digital Shorts, which are THE reason to watch SNL nowadays.
Anyway, the flick is about four friends who go on a global adventure, following in the footsteps of a group of hardcore explorers who are written about by Michael Conefrey in a novel by the same name.
Sounds like perfect mix of concept and people. I could watch Jonah Hill ride a bus for 2 hours and I'm sure he'd make it hilarious. What do you folks think?

reminds me of back when Eddie Murphy taped his bits

That Jonah Hill is the least funny of anyone, male or female, in the Apatowverse. I know this isn't an Apatow movie though.
-
Help me out harry.
-
the whole "Apatowverse", being relevant to my interests I thought I would have loved Pineapple Express, but aside from a few laughs I thought it was a mess.
-
is piece of crap. Anyone associated with it is not a reason to see anything.
-
its chock full of random d100 tables of totally awesome coolness circa 1982
-
...but it sure smells good!
-
And the new Lonely Island CD is greatness. I will watch anything that Keev touches.
-
that's what I think.
-
"Keev"..really? So you will watch him touching his tool? because apparently that what he does best judging by his "work"
-
that I wrote off 'Hot Rod' before I saw it, and now I love it. LOVE IT. Love Isla Fisher, love the dancing guy, even love Danny McBride playing the same character he always plays. It's like 'Billy Madison' era Sandler. If you like that sort of thing.
-
But you might want to cool it with the 'Keev' business.
-
Where's that guy been since Darjeeling?
-
Has Judd Apatow looked over it? I really like the sound of this.
-
I don't suppose alcohol and marijuana will be somehow incorporated now, will it?
-
hot rod sucked balls.
-
Kristen Wiig.
Am I wrong? AM I WRONG?!?! -
you mean "Talkback: The Movie"?

someone had to say it

I mean I know I'll be accuse of being one because of what I'm about to say. ...But, Jonah Hill is not just unfunny. He is NEGATIVE funny. He is the ANTI funny. Whatever funny is, he is the total diametric opposite of it. Why Jason Schwartzman, who was in Rushmore (ie, the funniest movie ever next to Ghostbusters) would go anywhere NEAR this guy is absolutely beyond me. I suppose money had something to do with it. Urgh... I literally cannot stand Jonah Hill. He and his pathetic, obnoxious, yell a lot while swearing schtick make me want to punch him in his unfunny face every time he's onscreen. He is THAT BAD at his job. That this guy has any kind of success whatsoever as a comedian is an indictment on our entire culture, and I would like nothing more than to see his career whither and die. Not because I want him to suffer... but because it would give me some hop for the future of comedy, pop culture, the movies, and humanity in general. So there.
-
Make that 'accused' and 'hope'. Jonah Hill is so unfunny I can't spell correctly when thinking about him, because my brain is leaking out of my ears from contemplating the sheer paradox of his having a career.
