If you havenât seen any of the trailers or posters, you can go here to watch some movie clips and get caught up.
And now that you have, letâs move on.
Posted below is a video interview I just did with Evan Goldberg, the co-writer of âSuperbad" and the upcoming âPineapple Expressâ and âGreen Hornet.â
He does all the writing with Seth Rogen and theyâve been great friends since they were 13 and shared Bar Mitzvah class together. Apparently they used to spend a ton of their time writing, so if it hadnât been for that class weâd never have gotten these movies. So as a big fan of these guys, Iâd like to thank Judaism for providing my summer laughs.
Finally, when you see the movie you should know that Michael Ceraâs character named Evan is based on the real life Evan. Hence the name.
In the next two days Iâll be posting some interviews with the cast⦠so until thenâ¦
Evan Goldberg Part 1
- Backstory on how Superbad came together. Evan talks about the writing process. Itâs all about Bar Mitzvah class. He also talks about Judd Apatow and what he suggested they do with the script to make it better.
- 3:00 â I ask him if he would ever want to act as everyone else in the group is in front of the cameraâ¦
- 3:55 - Pineapple Express talk.
- 5:30 â How is the test screening process helping the movie.
- 6:08 â Evan mentions that they just got Graeme Revell to do the music for Pineapple Express.
Evan Goldberg Part 2 - Green Hornet Talk
Here are some of the highlights of what he said about âGreen Hornetâ
- Itâs going to be PG-13.
- Not a comedy. Going to be an action movie.
- He says itâll be like, âLethal Weapon, meets 48 Hours, meets Indiana Jones.â
- And when he says Indiana Jones, thatâs the type of humor theyâre going for. Even though itâs action, there is comedy in the action.
- Not looking at the comics. Primarily basing it on the 60âs TV Show.
