Got a Tip?

Kevin Smith Tries To Jack Judd Apatow’s Steez By Casting Troupe Members Rogen and Banks?

Anyone else frightened/miffed by the fact that Kevin Smith’s new porno-lovestory comedy – the imaginitively titled “Zack & Miri Make A Porno” – is jacking members of Judd Apatow’s acting troupe, specifically “40 Year Old Virgin” co-stars Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks?

You’ll recall even Smith “friend” Rosario Dawson even bailed on this one early on, but Variety has confirmed that Rogen and Banks are onboard to portray the titular characters. We kinda call some BS on this and think Smith is doing everything he can to borrow some of Apatow’s shine, but we would say that, as we basically believe Smith should be barred from making anymore films.

Whatever, actors are adults and they’ll sign on for whatever they want, but it just makes us feel a little gross.

The film which revolves broke plantonic friends that make a porno for quick cash and then slowly realize they have feelings for one another is the 7th film that Smith is making for the Weinsteins (no accounting for taste).

  1. Both Kevin Smith and Judd Apatow are extremely talented and funny. They are both smart and there is room for both of them. Just because Kevin Smith wants to use actors Apatow trusts doesn’t mean Smith is trying to ride any coat tails. It is just a tribute to their talent(the actors). Smith and Apatow both make films that are hilarious and they both make films that empathize with human nature particularly with the pains of youth. Both should be revered and both should be allowed to create because only great things can come from both. I would be honored to be able to work with either of them. I apologize for my anonymity I have no site, no blog, and no screen name.
