Just left 'This Is The End'

Let me start by saying I'm a Seth Rogen fan.  I think if you liked Superbad, Knocked Up, and Pineapple Express, you'll love it.  If not, I don't know what to tell you. Its basically the same main cast from Pineapple Express with several cameos.  Michael Cera will probably shock you (he was hilarious)

 

It's kind of one of those 'stupid funny' movies with somewhat of an underlying religious (but not THAT religious) theme that plays a factor in the end of the movie. Don't let it scare you away, because it's definitely not preachy or anything.  Personally I laughed until I cried. I thought it was really really funny.

i've heard mixed reviews on this- although I enjoyed all the previous movies you listed to at least some degree; I will probably wait until it comes out on DVD

 

I read a fairly interesting article basically saying that This is the End should/could serve as a metaphor for Seth Rogen to move on from these type of movies

Just got out of the movie. It started out beyond hilarious, but it seemed to taper off more and more towards the end. Still a really funny, laugh out loud kind of movie.

 

Wish they would've had the cameos continue on throughout the movie instead of having them all in the first 20 or so minutes and then leaving it at that.

 

Some of my favorite comedic actors had too small of parts in the movie, not that that's a bad thing that should be changed, but it would've been nice to see more of them. Paul Rudd, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jason Segel, and even Michael Cera, who had a relatively big part, but I like a lot as an actor and probably could've been utilized a bit longer.

its weird, im one of those people that likes pretty much every movie, but this one didn't do it for me. I actually found the internship a lot funnier which is weird because it got way worse reviews. my college won a free screening of "this is the end" in April so i got to see it way earlier which was pretty cool, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride came on campus and signed autographs and stuff as well. I didn't get to see them though :/ the overall movie experience was cool because it was free along with popcorn and drinks, but actually movie was blehhh not bad but definitely not a memorable to me.

Michael Cera was brilliant

    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game.  and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important. 
    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?
