We Love Judd and his self-deprecating humor

Not Judd Nelson, not Ashley Judd.  Actually, I do love Judd Nelson, who plays Bender in The Breakfast Club (from now on to be known as the bc), but I am not writing about him, because I haven't seen him in anything other than one episode of Will & Grace since the bc.  I'm obvs talking about Apatow.  The hairy hunk who produced such wonders as Freaks and Geeks, Undeclared, The 40-year Old Virgin (sisters, shut up), Knocked Up, and sort of, my ultimate, Superbad.  

One of Judd's next big projects, after The Year One, is Judd's Sandler flick.  Which might be a huge deal for either end of the project.  In one episode of Undeclared (Netflix it ASAP), Adam Sandler came to their school to do a comedy show and Seth Rogen declared that they had to make him part of their group because he is "the funniest man alive."  The entire episode revolved around how fab Sandler is.  

Where did I read that Sandler is the type of person that you would sleep with because he is famous, even though he isn't attractive?

Whatever, Judd, Seth, and the whole crew somehow managed to secure Sandler for their next big project.  Actually, not somehow.  In this era, all the comedy that does well is by Judd.  Apatowian has actually become an adjective in some circles.  Maybe I'll start using it.  But anyway, it's gotta be great for AdSand's career to join forces with the unstoppable Freaks & Geeks family.  

But the train doesn't stop their.  Who remember Seth Rogen's monologue in Knocked Up, where he talks about how Munich is so sicknasty sweet because Eric Bana makes to make Jews look cool.  I guess Eric Bana was flattered, because he's there right alongside Adam Sandler, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, and Leslie Mann to rock it.  You go guys.  All there with your idols and fans.

But I heard that the whole Eric Bana monologue was improv, so I guess that Bana really has to thank Seth.

I like writing about this, but you might not like reading about it, so up next, I am going to write about something other than movies and tv.  Give me ideas, because my mind is drawing a blank.

Love you!

  3. At first I thought you were saying that Year One was the movie with Sandler and I was like, um, no. It's with my Mikey. But then I realized that was not what you were saying so, um, my bad. To make up for this mistake, I will give you a suggestion for your non-tv/movie blog entry:
    1.)My biggest issue with Apatow films- or any cute nerd-boy character- is that they always love these "hot" girls (As in, the character is supposed to be hot and/or popular, not the character is hot because the actress is)i.e. Seth Cohen and Summer and every Judd Apatow romance, ever. I feel like this is true in real life, as well. Nerd boys always want girls like the aforementioned or Triss in Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE NERD GIRL? AND WHY IS THIS A PHENOMENOM?
    2.) this article came out a while ago, but my friends and I still reference it. thoughts?: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/13/opinion/13blow.html?scp=18&sq=&st=nyt
