I'm sorry, but Seth Rogen is NOT funny

[Tarik One]

I've seen 3 movies with him so far, one of them being Pineapple Express and I barely made it through 30 minutes. His pothead, perverted style of humor I just can't get into at all.

Everyone has there opinions and this is my opinion. Everytime I watch a movie trailer and if it says, from the creators of "Superbad, Knocked up, 40 year old virgin...etc." I make sure i won't waste my time or money to watch it. I just don't see what people see in this guy.

[JtotheIzzo]

40 year old virgin and superbad were good movies.

[TennesseeFan]

He looks like Lane Kiffin, so he can suck a dyke for all I care

[IlliniFan]

I'm sorry, but millions of people disagree.

[CMsam]

I'm sorry, but millions of people disagree.

You say this........ as if it means anything.

[CMsam]

ALso, people love this guy because he's the anti-pretty boy.

You'll notice how anytime someone like ashton kutcher, justin timberlake, zac efron is mentioned, all the insecure internet dweebs come in and say how talentless they are and how much they hate them and they have no business in movies,etc.

But put someone completely unfunny and talentless who is an underdog because he's not good looking (like seth rogen) on the screen and these kids eat it up.

Gone are the days where people idolized and admired the handsome "Mr. Everything" type. Nowadays people root for the underdog. "Oh, Seth Rogen is fat and ugly, so he definitely didnt get the role for his looks. So, since I have no actual taste, I'll assume people who know this stuff think he's actually funny, so I will too!"

[CMsam]

It's basically Pete's Montreux mentality. People dont have any actual taste or sense of quality on their own, so they just figure out what "people in the know" are likely to think, and go along with it.

[1manfastbreak]

he was hella funny in funny people

[ZeN]

Seth Rogen is definitely funny. Its obvious that he doesn't appeal to everyones taste.. but not void of humor like say a Mencia.

[GOBB]

I cant mess with him either. Knocked Up he was hella funny in that. Movies since that? *thumbs down on all of them*

Another actor who appears to be headed down the path of "Just not funny to me"? That short dude from that movie filmed in Vegas. It had Tyson and he knocked dude out. The tiger in the back of the car. The guy gets tasered "In the face!". Sorry, cant think of the movies name. But that short dude in it just isnt funny to me.

[HisJoeness]

Observe and Report was beyond awful.

[BRabbiT]

he's funny.

but you did love napoleon dynamite if i remember correctly, yes?

[lefthook00]

The black dude that's in his crew is hilarious(Darrell from The Office).

[Brujesino]

No need to apologize i think hes awful.

[Randy]

I don't find Seth Rogen very funny or talented, but as the lead, he is usually surrounded by better actors/comedians that can carry his tubby ass, so people associate funny movies with Seth Rogen. James Franco and Danny McBride were great in Pineapple Express, which I would have enjoyed if Rogen and his sh*tty acting didn't ruin it. This is probably why I like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, there was no Seth Rogen. I also want to watch Freaks and Geeks but since he's in it, I probably won't.

:oldlol: I just watched Donny Darko the other day and had completely forgotten that he was the bully sidekick

[Skywalker]

the scene in pineapple express when hes bitchin at james franco about how he only knows him because he's his dealer is hilarious

are you a HATER?

[jbot]

40 year old virgin and superbad were good movies.
40yov was good, pineapple express sucked as well as that "made a porno" movie and that security guard one.

[L.Kizzle]

I think he's ok.

[CMsam]

40yov was good, pineapple express sucked as well as that "made a porno" movie and that security guard one.


40 year old virgin was only funny cuz of steve carrell and the scene where the two black dudes fight in the video store.

seth rogen wasnt funny in it at all.

[Kobe8]

If this was youtube... This video would have been removed already.. as i'M expecting from the mods now!

[Jackass18]

Rogen is good, plus Starface's jealousy makes it better.

The Hangover. I'm not sure which guy you're talking about though, the Asian guy that's in all the commercials with D. Rose? Or the fat guy with the curly hair?

[CMsam]

Rogen is good, plus Starface's jealousy makes it better.

Silly redneck, conusing jealousy with taste.

"If you think Titanic was a shitty movie, but your favorite movie is Indiana Jones..... you might have bad taste."

[RoseCity07]

40 year old virgin and Knocked Up he was funny. It depends on his role.

Other movies he did were whatever.

What about all the love that Leo gets? All of your ignorant rants fall apart without much thought.

A 15 hour snoozefest called Titanic or one of the best and most entertaining action/adventure films of all-time in Raiders of the Lost Ark? Yeah, people with taste go with Raiders. Ignorant sluts like you buy into all the Oscar nonsense because you don't know any better.

[CMsam]

Actually, the generic guy who doesn't have his own sense of style, and just tries to fit in with whatever "man code" miller lite is creating in its commercials (i.e. you) was mocking dicaprio when he first came to prominence because he had so many adoring female fans. That's how it goes every single time. Ashton Kutcher was way funnier as Kelso than anything Seth Rogen has ever done, but Kutcher gets the hate from internet dweebs and Rogen gets the love. There was a thread about that Zac Efron kid playing Robin in a Batman movie, and everyone was like "I won't see it." I bet nobody has even seen this kid act, and they're butthurt because he's a teen idol.

Rant without much thought? Dude my farts are more profound than anything you've ever contemplated. GTFO silly redneck who tries to fit in as a "regular guy" but doesn't have a lick of culture, aptitude, or savoir faire

As for this, a lot of movies actually disappoint because they're confined to a strict Hollywood time limit and forced to end the story too quickly. Titanic was captivating from start to finish, it had action, drama, emotion, cinematography, it was an EPIC.

Indiana Jones..... is for 14 year olds. I honestly can't even believe I'm having this conversation with a grown man, this is EXACTLY what I'm talking about when I say you don't have taste, and you don't have a damn clue what you're talking about. It's not like "back and forth insult banter" I mean you REALLY dont have a clue what you're talking about. Fret not however, for you are the majority. The dumb, generic, get-in-where-you-fit-in nobody that makes up the public at large. Mr. Redneck.

[VishaltotheG]

He is a lame, unfunny, classless "actor" and "comedian". He only does stupid frat movies, like that other guy Jonah Hill who is even less funny.

[Stuckey]

not funny at all

[Lakers Legend#32]

He was funny in 40-Year-Old Virgin and Superbad but that's it.
I know he is just gonna ruin The Green Hornet.

[Jailblazers7]

He was funny in 40-Year-Old Virgin and Superbad but that's it.

Still can't believe he got picked for that role.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Rogen is at his best in supporting roles. He can't carry a movie on his own as the lead.

[donald_trump]

i dont get how you cannot like him if you are a male between the ages of 15-35ish.

his humor is basically stupid shit that you'll think of with friends and you'll spend hours laughing over though his is scripted and rehearsed to be even funnier.

i think its simply become popular to hate on him because he has this notion of 'normal guy' around him with the way he looks and acts.

Which is why he isn't funny. That stuff is only humorous when you are sitting around high or really bored, not when you pay money to go see it and expect something better than what a bunch of random dudes would say in a stupid convo.

Nah this is funnier than what you say with your freinds... I don't go into a movie demanding excellence when it's a comedy, I go in expecting to laugh and be entertained. And seth rogan is funny as hell in some of his movies.

Do you guys think will ferrel;s sense of humor is bad? Cuz I was dying throughout all of stepbrothers and the other guys.:roll: :roll:

[donald_trump]

i completely disagree.

take something like the scene in 'knocked up', when rogen is on the phone to the girl and his whole crew and him make out as if theyre having an orgy while hes talking to her.

shit like that cracks me up because its what id expect when hanging with my friends though obviously its original.

It's cute how you try to pin labels on people and yet fail badly each time you attempt it.


Rant without much thought? Dude my farts are more profound than anything you've ever contemplated.

Uh huh, you're the definition of ignorant. I mean, calling someone who is far from a redneck a redneck? I guess giving people false labels is your go-to move since you can't actually debate worth a shit. You want to pretend that you're even the slightest bit profound? That's cute. Your simplistic and false generalizations are the opposite of profound, Skippy. You've had the same ol' angry 16 year old rebel-wannabee attitude for years. Until you learn how to pull your head out of your ass, you're going to be stuck in that same rut. Most people move on from that phase before they hit 20, but you're still there and you're how old?

LOL, you think movie critics are made up of 14 year olds? You think pretty much every movie site, which all rate Raiders better than Titanic, are made up of 14 year olds? The AFI which rated Raiders the #66th greatest American film of all-time is made up of 14 year olds? Who said it was my favorite movie in the first place? I love your debating style. You have absolutely no idea of what you're talking about, but you pretend that the other person is actually the clueless one. Instead of actually debating while typing something relevant or something that has some sort of basis in reality, you do nothing but throw around lazy, ignorant labels like "redneck" or "generic" because you lack wisdom, wit, a clue, intelligence, relevancy, and a point. Taste, mother****er, taste? You lack even the most basic wisdom to even start to understand what taste is. You think anyone that disagrees with you is a generic idiot that makes up the majority. Keep raging, Mr. Contrarian. Maybe some day someone will take you seriously.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Rogen's movies seem to have no script and the director is lazy thinking that Rogen ad libbying is funny enough. It's not and he's not.

[B-Easy8]

Not funny at all. Superbad and 40 Year Old Virgin were really good but I didn't like him in either of them either. He is fat, ugly and not funny he has not business in movies.

[pete's montreux]

It's basically Pete's Montreux mentality. People dont have any actual taste or sense of quality on their own, so they just figure out what "people in the know" are likely to think, and go along with it.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, or I could just be contrary to absolutely everything like you

Mmm, see how that works?

[knobs]

I also want to watch Freaks and Geeks but since he's in it, I probably won't.
terrible reason. first of all, he's got a really minor role in the show. second, he plays that really minor role to perfection. and third, that really minor role he plays to perfection is absolutely nothing like any other role you've ever seen him play.


i don't mind seth rogen, just like i don't mind his movies. 'the hangover' was alright but nothing special, '40yo' was just a little bit worse, pineapple express was funny the first time but has little replay value. bro flicks are doomed to be shallow and crude and you can definitely squeeze some humor out of them, but they aren't instant classics like a lot of 'bros' claim.

rogen actually acted really well in 'funny people' though, and once you adjusted to his awkward character actually performing stand-up on stage, he had some pretty golden moments. he's nothing like the next jim carey or anything, mostly because a lot of his success is second hand off of judd's success, but he's not terrible.

and it isn't the case that most people like him because he's fat and ugly and anti-ashton. just like it isn't the case that most people like biggie because he's fat and different, just like it isn't the case that most people like obama because he's black and different. just like it isn't the case that most people like _______ because he's ______ and different. jesus it's amazing how hard one guy can try to apply his narrow polarized pessimistic view of a complex world when it just doesn't f*cking fit. lol

[chrisxuk]

I'm sorry, but millions of people disagree.

Indeed.

In my opinion, he isn't funny. He's overated. BUT; I have enjoyed movies he's in; Superbad, Knocked Up etc. The films were funny, Rogen wasn't that funny.

[Lebron23]

I like Seth Rogen.

What does Seth Rogen and the Hangover have to do with each other? Just curious...

[SayTownRy]

i'm not the biggest fan of rogen as an actor. i don't dislike his delivery style, but i don't mind it especially with guys like danny mcbride killing it alongside him.

i do think movies like superbad and 40 year old virgin are hilarious though. without judd appetow we'd still be getting american pie movies and the like.

it's the more raw language and subject matter that has kinda made these movies groundbreaking in terms of mainstream american comedy.

that said, seth rogen is a very gifted writer. he co-wrote superbad and pineapple express. he also did some writing on the ali g show back in 04 - which i didn't know, but i'm extremely impressed by.

but his movies are mostly funny because of the dialogue (he writes) and the greatness of guys like danny mcbride and craig robinson. i can put up with rogen to get more danny mcbride. "i made you guys dinner the other night. fish tacos!"

[JohnnySic]

Rogen isn't funny; I never got the "fat guy is funny because he's fat" thing. Chris Farley barely pulled it off. The rest of these guys, Rogen, Jonah Hill, suck.

But at least they're funnier than Will Ferrell. I never got that guy; haven't laughed once.

[B-Low]

But at least they're funnier than Will Ferrell. I never got that guy; haven't laughed once.
:wtf:

So you didn't laugh at all during Anchorman?? Never laughed at "More Cowbell?" Never laughed at his Harry Carey impression (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haAhdtDmsOw)? Never laughed at the Spartan cheerleaders? Never laughed during Taladega Nights? You're saying you could sit through BOTH Best of Will Ferrell SNL dvds and not laugh once?

If that's the case then I think it's an issue with you, not Ferrell lol

[knobs]

What does Seth Rogen and the Hangover have to do with each other? Just curious...
sorry, i meant 'knocked up'.

[Mr. Grieves]

Superbad, Knocked Up, 40 Year Old Virgin, and Zack and Miri Make a Porno are all good comedies.

The rest of his movies that he's had a prime hand in, meh.

[sunsfan1357]

I'm kind of the same way when it comes to movies with Ferrell. I don't find him funny in movies that he stars in (I hate Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Step Brothers, etc.), but enjoy him when he has smaller roles like in Old School and Wedding Crashers. His SNL stuff is funny too like Harey Carey and the Celebrity Jeopardy skits.

[KOBEMAMBA24]

Agreed, immature witless humor. I personally don't find it entertaining, never will.

[heyhey]

I think his popularity lies in the fact he gives obese, hairy, people with questionabe body odor and curly hair hope that they can land a chick and their lack of social grace is "quirky" trait that girls find cute.


the illuminati is behind this inception.

[Jackass18]

You people are just silly. There is no correlation about how someone looks and how they feel about Rogen. I could say that people who like Rogen are people who feel secure about themselves while the people who dislike Rogen are insecure and sheltered momma's boys, but it's all made up nonsense.

[GOBB]

The Hangover. I'm not sure which guy you're talking about though, the Asian guy that's in all the commercials with D. Rose? Or the fat guy with the curly hair?

Fat guy curly hair wearing the man purse. :oldlol:

[GOBB]

but you did love napoleon dynamite if i remember correctly, yes?

Yes starface. Not sure you're point but you generally never have one so silly me.

[hayden695]

Fat guy curly hair wearing the man purse. :oldlol:
Zach Galifianikis is who your thinking of.

I find him f*cking hilarious, I liked his stand up too.

On topic though, I usually like the movies that Rogen is in, but not him. I find his comedy to be kind of boring. He will give me the odd chuckle but nothing serious. And it isn't that I am some snobby prick about this, I love lots of stupid comedy like Will Ferrell and Zach.
