The New Trailer For THIS IS FORTY Makes You Take Stock Of Your Life!!
The Kidd here...
I'm not forty years old yet, but I'm sure not getting any younger, and that big number looks a lot closer than it did a few years ago. However, anyone with a wife and a couple of kids can relate a bit to what Judd Apatow's bringing to the table for his newest film THIS IS FORTY, which follows up with Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann's characters from KNOCKED UP.
I'm totally psyched about seeing Megan Fox in a bra and panties, but THIS IS FORTY looks to be a bit more subtle with the humor than previous Apatow films. This doesn't look vulgar or crass in any way, which has been one of his strengths before in the past, and there's a certain depressing sweetness to watching a couple of people stuck in a rut with their lives together, trying to figure things out for their marriage and their family without killing themselves or each other.
Check out the new trailer (via Yahoo!)...

Paul Rudd has the youthful energy of a much younger man
by heyoucantlaughatthat
-
This film has Albert Brooks! (And Megan Fox in bra and panties...)
-
This movie will be at least two and a half hours long, have Leslie Mann not be funny and contain his annyoing fucking kids.
-
The doors behind you mate.

http://bcove.me/lrzg6q2j your welcome

I guess the determining factor will be the runtime. Funny People was padded with AT LEAST an hour of unnecessary, badly-improvised, self-indulgent moments. If he keeps this under an hour and forty-five minutes, maybe he will have learned something. But something tells me this will just be another exercise in smug self-indulgence.

here have some Carla Gugino as a bonus http://bcove.me/hdkmv466

yukkabum.

Which was ok at best. But I could check this out, maybe not in theatres.
-
I totally agree about runtime. Judd needs to learn how to edit... However, I related a lot to some of this trailer...I'm not sure if I should be embarrassed or excited that I'm not alone...

A lot of people in their 40's are depressed and miserable because...
by 3D-Man
they have been sold "the great lie" their whole lives. The great lie is that you have to be married and have children to have a happy and complete life. Programmed by this, they seek out a mate, have kids and buy a house (which more often than not they have to pay for by getting a job they despise) because that's what they're "supposed to" do. They realize far too late that maybe they didn't want any of that shit to begin with. This is not true for EVERYONE, of course, but it certainly applies to many.

yeah but this judd apatow and his movies are not funny. after seeing Knocked up and superbad. I am done with judd apatow.

I'm almost 40, married, and have two kids. But this trailer was totally unremarkable and left me cold.
by Ecto-1
These flicks are always the same. Nice attractive/sexy people. Usually white. Sometimes have the odd ethnic friend. They have decent jobs, live in a nice big house, have a couple of cars, quirky friends, kids that are walking cliches; but SOMEHOW, their lives are terrible. Bull. Shit.

I think you have 'issues'. Film looked ok though.

Dear Judd Apatow - NOBODY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR WIFE AND KIDS
by georgecauldron
How cute of you to put them in every movie you make. And how interesting it is that now you don't have someone like Paul Feig, Seth Rogen, or Steve Carell co-writing your scripts they are utter shit. LOL that 5 years ago everyone was praising Apatow as a comic god and now people realize that he has no talent as a writer or director. All his success was made on others' shoulders. Judd Apatow is the George Lucas of comedy - getting all the credit for other people's work.
-
Not every day, and certainly not when I'm taking out the garbage and pretending to throw one away. That only happens in the movies.
-
But I am married. We rent though. It works for us.
-
Aug. 7, 2012, 1:21 p.m. CST
If I were married to Leslie Mann I'd probably want to make a horror documentary about it, too.
by Christian Sylvain
Still, I'm with @georgecauldron on this, Apatow needs to stop pushing his family life into each new dull film (aside from 40yr old virgin).
-
I so want to hand in my over 40 card. Fuck that shit. Conformist, typical bull crap for those who've bought into the marriage and kids and stable regular job, job type job. I will now projectile vomit. Have a nice day.
-
...they mostly have life figured out by then, and start wondering, is this all there is?
-
I love Rudd, and I still laugh hard when I watch "I Love You, Man," but I am getting tired of movies where the director just puts the actors in front of a camera and lets them make up stuff.

However, anyone with a wife and a couple of kids can relate a bit to what Judd Apatow's bringing to the table for his newest film THIS IS FORTY
by TopHat
Yes, if you are an Upper-Class family living in Southern California. Leslie Mann, Paul Rudd, and Judd Apatow do NOT "represent" 99% of America, regardless of their age or how many kids they have. Have film fans really become this weak and pathetic? Guys, if you're in a relationship with a woman who acts like Mann's character - LEAVE HER IMMEDIATELY. It doesn't matter if you don't have any military background or make a lot of money: You-deserve-better. Women, you are much stronger and intelligent than the female characters in these movies. You don't act like spoiled eight-year-olds. Being with a man who acts like a lead character from a nineteen eighties teen comedy does not make you more "real" or a "martyr". You are more than a wife, mother, and/or neurotic princess. Judd Apatow and the actors he works with are not your friends. Going to their movies and making excuses for them does not make you one of their "cliche". Understanding their pop-culture references does not make you funny. Being married and/or having kids does not make you the same as multi-millionaires. In the early nineties, a movie called GRAND CANYON was released. It was about people in their forties encountering their changing outlooks of the world. The film was a serious and funny depiction of coming to a crossroads in your life as an individual and as a participant in a relationship. That is a movie about forty-year-olds you should be "relating" to. THIS IS FORTY, and the other movies Apatow makes, are the movies you should "relate" to when you're a ignorant, pretentious, selfish, weak, teenager, watching a movie starring forty-year-olds because you think it makes you more "mature". These movies preach that we should all get married and have kids. That if we don't, there's something genuinely wrong with us - Especially if you're a man. The movies used to exist to make us believe we can accomplish anything... ...now they exist to convince us to become like a our parents.

by Fixxxer
Ah, AICN. Such champions of the art of filmmaking.

This. Honestly, fuck this movie right up it's status quo ass. I'm 35, married, and have a 12 week old daughter, our first child. Here's the thing, though - my wife and I both dropped out of college when we realized it was bullshit (didn't meet until well after college, though) to keep you in debt for the rest of your life because you're doing something VERY expensive at a time when you should probably be figuring out what you wanna do by DOING IT, aka - WORKING or traveling or researching ON YOUR OWN. Self-directed learning. Anyway, we both work in television and make a great living and we RENT. I can't tell you how many people we're friends with are miserable cause they did the conformist thing their parents wanted them to do and/or they bought a house or condo that's now underwater and they can't possibly get rid of so they're saddled with the debt, the responsibility of upkeep, and the renters in some cases. The funniest thing about all of it is that most family and friends have this odd way of talking down to us, like we're these irresponsible bohemians yet we're more responsible with our money and our decisions than just following the fucking status quo. Also, the narcissistic, competitive, yet empty materialism is RAMPANT. You'd think it's the Gordon Gecko 1980's up in this bitch. I work long hours, but at least I'm working in the industry I CHOSE to work in. Luck plays a part, but so does hard work and building a reptutation, especially when your father does HVAC and isn't the head of a studio or network. And you CAN be happy if you listen to yourself, do right by those you love, and don't believe everything you hear, especially in today's fucked up society where have a news and statistic pandemic. But yeah, ditto on Grand Canyon. What happened to movies made by actual adults instead of man-children?

i'm almost forty and the last thing I'd like to be is Paul Rudd
by Squinty CGI Flynn
-
Your family is not attractive or talented. Please stop cramming them down our throats. This movie is shit oh and so is your career. I'll be impressed if this movie is 110 minutes long. Sincerely, A guy who paid to see Funny People
-
I'm affraid to see this movie. LOL. My one regret is my job. I wish I went after something different in college that took me on a different professional path. But I didn't know what I wanted to do back in college so I got a degree in business. I fucking despise business and business people. Other than that I have no regrets.
-
...I like the guy. I'd think I was wrong if half the douches around here didn't bitch and hate on EVERYTHING in existence . . .

. . . you have FRIENDS???
-
Aug. 7, 2012, 3:10 p.m. CST
let me guess - 2.5 hours of self-indulgent improvised crap?
by georgecauldron
Without Paul Rudd's involvement does this movie even get a theatrical release?
-
I vote "yes".
-
pass
-
At 21 I was happy to be able to legally go to bars but I was constantly broke so never got to do the awesome things (like go to Cancun and shit) my friends got to do. At 27, I make money but realize I took the wrong path in my undergrad years and am now going back for a master's. I'm sure I'll be unhappy about something at 30,40, and so on, too.
-
Judd Apatow, is a brilliant writer and producer, but he is pussy whipped by his wife. She doesn't have to be in every film. She can't hold a leading role, and we all saw that in Funny People
-
Don't care for anything Apatow does, with, maybe 40 Year Old Virgin being the exception, though I haven't seen it in years. oh, and Superbad, which he produced, right? I love Rudd in a few things. Wet Hot American Summer. Role Models. And he was fantastic this year on Parks and Rec. The rest of his stuff I can take or leave, mostly leave. Leslie Mann, I thought was great in Big Daddy, in a supporting role. Everytime I have seen her since, I have disliked her more and more. Not even Megan "hammerthumbs" Fox in her undies could get me to this one.

Will Katherine Heigl be in this movie or does she still hate Judd Apatow?
by Mr. Pricklepants
-
As much as I dislike Judd Apatow, bad-mouthing her role in Knocked Up is one of the dumbest things she could possibly have done. Where is she now? Making shitty romantic comedies like The Ugly Truth.

I think 3d-man is right in a way, in that the scenario he describes is likely to make a person miserable, if they let it that is...
by 6000_little_griglets
Read Victor Frankl's book, 'Man's Search For Meaning'. It's not the be all and end all, but it's good for getting you thinking. I'm married with a mortgage, a kid on the way and work in a call centre... i used to be an audio engineer but it wasn't paying the bills. I know it's a cliche but true happiness really does come from within... whatever your situation is, if it was to be made into a movie it could either be a comedy or a drama, Ghostbusters or The Exorcist (for want of a better example)... You can be Leslie Nielson in Repossessed or Father Karras in The Exorcist... it's your choice.
-
Funny - at the risk of sounding like a cynical asshat, these recent Apatow movies are far more unbelievable than half the supernatural/science-fiction action movies that have come out over the last 10 years or so. Yes - even moreso than Transformers.

But at least Tyler Perry didn't see to it that his shlubby younger actors morphed into one-note dick joke extraordinaires.

SPOT ON, SIR.

Would have rather had something a bit more true to life. For a great, realistic and semi-humorous look at middle age, check out "Men of a Certain Age", a series that, sadly, got canceled. Solid cast and well written.

I'd rather see - Louie CK's version of THIS IS FORTY than Apatow's

Oh wait, he already made his version, and it's called LOUIE on cable TV. Apatow is too fluffy, overly sentimental, wannabe edgy, and doesn't really have anything relevant to say.

Apatow's movies all have horrible conservative subtexts
by Turd_Is_Floating_Underneath_The_Gravy
40 Year Old Virgin: Steve Carrell only pops his cherry after marriage. All his promiscuous colleague are revealed to be sad and pathetic losers. Sex before wedlock is bad! Knocked Up: Ambitious career woman eager to sacrifice her future to have an unplanned pregnancy with an irresponsible schlub. Patriarchal, sexist, and anti-abortion. Know your place, women! This Is Forty: If you are not married, don't have 2.4 children, a dull desk job, live in a suburban house with a huge mortgage to pay off, or have a white picket fence and a dog by the time you hit middle-age, you are bad! People who do things off the beaten track and aspire beyond mediocrity are weirdoes! The nail that stands up will be knocked down! Fuck Apatow; he just wants affirmation through his films for his own dull choices in life - to marry a shrew, pop out a couple of sprogs, and live a vacuous upper-middle class existence with no passion.

I so hate these movies!

3 weeks ago i quit my job of 8 yrs. I came straight out of uni and into this bubble of working in an unconventional sales job with massive hours. Since i haven't been in the 'real world', my company would fill me with propaganda about how awful it is working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living! This was akin to Amway...financial freedom, determining your own income, go for your dreams, etc. I bought all of what they said hook, line and sinker. At the same time, whilst i enjoy the industry i was in, i just didn't want anything to do with the business side anymore and was stagnant. More so is i had guilt...denying myself the pleasure of my creative work, drawing, writing, film making...my chief passions and what i was doing before getting sidelined into this job. As i was so busy working and expected to work a lot, i put all of that creativity on the shelf for 8 years. Part of me will regret and miss what i have walked away from 3 weeks ago (and i'm going into a realm of unpredictability with income currently being employed) BUT with leaving comes liberation and choice. By Oct, i'm moving with my partner to her hometown interstate to begin a new life. This will mean getting into something 9-5 for the time being and we'll see what that is like. I have also long dreamed of getting married and having a couple of kids. For so long that wasn't an option, because i didn't have anybody to pursue that dream with. I've been with my partner over 3 years now and have to admit (now that parenthood is a REAL possibility) the concept and responsibility scares me a bit and i have procrastinated...but i believe the time is now coming to achieve this goal. Look, i have friends and people i know who have gone into the wife, mortgage, 2 kids, picket fence, 9-5 realm...some seem happy, some don't. Some LOOK DOWN on me for not being "one of us, one of us!" On the other hand, i have friends/people i know who are single, doing well financially, very materialistic...and LOOK DOWN on everyone who joined the nuclear family. Some of these guys (often yuppie pricks) are happy, some are not. Do what makes YOU happy. It isn't high school where you throw an eraser at the teacher because the cool kids told you to do so. I'm starting from scratch again and it is a bit scary but what i am now doing is taking some control and choice. I am making steps to draw (something i used to do EVERYDAY since the age of 3) so i may get into comics or concept design. I get to work on my graphic design, which i studied prior to my last job. I now get to write all my screenplay ideas as vehicles for me to do my ONE, BIG AIM...direct feature films. And to do it guilt free. It feels...good. I don't know who reads this cares but damnitt...you can mold yourself to have what you want, you don't have to buy into someone else's picture of existence. If you have the family unit...make it a happy family unit. If you are single and enjoy it...great. If you want change...find a way to instigate it. We are NOT ZOMBIES.
-
Fuck you. Stop making movies, we hate them. How the fuck are we supposed to be able to relate to people with a house and two kids. What the fuck is that? How do we relate to success? Fuck you. You want to make a movie that relates to us? Make a movie about how much movies suck, and put it on Youtube. But fuck that movie, cuz if it's on youtube, any one could have made it and fuck you, you suck at even that.

makes movies so his wife will still fuck him and his kids will still love him only reason to see this is for albert brooks

I'm 34. Had two kids (11 & 7). Wife turned lesbo. Got new wife 3 years ago. And a new baby who just turned 1.
by sweeneydave
A few years ago I felt REALLY old. Now I feel super young. I think age has a lot to do with what is going on in your life. When you feel like "So this is all there is to my life?" it kinda sucks and you feel old. When things start falling apart and you wonder how you can ever start over after an 8 year marriage, you feel old. But it's hard to feel stale when everything is so new and awesome. I'll let you know how things are when I'm 50.
-
The wife, kids, and house thing only works for some, not for others.

What a great perspective. A very encouraging outlook on life. Maybe there is light at the end of that tunnel.

39, married, 2 and 12/40th kids, mortgage, school loans
by DoctorZoidberg
No doubt elements of this movie will ring true, especially a wife tracking bathroom time (don't ask). Not sure how funny this will be, Apatow is hit or miss with me. I don't think we are supposed to 'feel sorry' for these well-to-do crackers. I do think we are supposed to identify with what life is like at that stage and therefore empathize. In the end, they will learn that life is what you make of it, and your outlook determines your reality. This has already been stated above by the more mature TBers. Either way I will see this for ALBERT BROOKS! Love that man.
-
I just dont feel my age at all. Def have the adult thing going at 46 but Im not old at heart...
-
including from turd_is_floating_underneath_the_gravy I have a certain amount of sympathy for square suburbanite white yuppies who bought into the lies and now are unhappy/unfulfilled but I surely wouldn't want to watch a movie about them. I struggled to forge my own very unconventional way in the world and built the life I love through risk-- even now I am late 30s with no healthcare or savings account or car, but I am happy and independent unlike my peers who are STILL depending on their parents to help pay for their kids, mortgages etc. I am very lucky in that I am surrounded by people who "get" me, which I never thought would be possible. Being part of a community (in REAL LIFE not internet!) is the key to happiness. The nuclear family and a giant house and the trappings of "american success" make NOBODY happy. I know because I talk to those people every day, and they hate their empty, debt-ridden lives stuck at meaningless jobs. They are guilt-ridden b/c they hate their vapid wives/husbands and gormless kids. I pity them, but they made their own choices. They had college educations and supportive parents and lots of those kinds of privileges, and they fucked up. Now they are unhappy and adrift. Fuck this movie and fuck conforming to expectations. Solidarity to those of us who dare to create and chase our own dreams on our own terms. <3 <3
-
I second the "DOBA" (Dead On Balls Accurate) assessment of your comment. Well done.
-
relax. 8 mile is still out there if you want to watch a film about a young white person with problems. or there's About Schmidt if you want to watch a film about an old white person with problems. pretty sure you've got more to relate to in an Apatow film than watching a film that reminds you of that time you *didn't* overcame adversity to become an international rap superstar. or you could grab a spike lee joint if you feel you just want to hate on white folks in general. i'm fine watching films about middle age white folks with no problems if they're interesting middle age white people with no problems. and funny. they have to be funny.

Why shine a light on the possible discontent of being in that routine? Maybe I'll skip this one.

Paul Rudd's character gets Graham Parker and the Rumour to reunite, thereby jeopardizing his record company. And he's wearing a Bob Mould T-Shirt in the trailer. This movie is for fortysomething people like myself who were cool and rebellious in the 80's and now have a woman in our lives and children to look after. Not a movie for some of you actual "40 Year Old Virgins" who brag about not having those things, when the truth is no woman would put up with your action figure collection. Or give you a man cave to keep your longboxes in.

cymbalta4thedevil , you're a shitty plant.
by where_are_quints_hobbit_set_reports
None of that sounds cool. If you were actually "cool and rebellious" you'd still be that way rather than trying to sell us on another toothless rudd retread. I don't know what a Longbox is, but if you mean the coffin I keep in my living room as a coffee table, my partner has no problem with it. The very notion of needing a MANCAVE for your belongings b/c you've given away your right to exist inside the house to some woman you can't make happy already has 'dickless sellout' written all over it.

It's boring, and you don't get as much enjoyment out of it.

Still, there was some honesty to it, I'm 22 and I do the toilet thing, going there many times a day to get away from my lady. Apatow is talented all the way, I just think he's confused, either make the 40 year old virgin films or just do serious dramas with dramatic actors. He wants to be James L. Brooks, and he's certainly had a high level of success, but I believe Apatow could use a career reinvention. However, Albert Brooks can go a long way, almost wish the whole film was built around him and Rudd, not the marriage crap.
