Pineapple Express Poster

The official one-sheet for the upcoming Rogan/Apatow comedy has hit the net.

JoBlo.com has posted the first official poster for this summer's comedy heavyweight. Check it out below.



I think the above poster is pretty damn sweet. I absolutely hated the Pirates of the Carribbean posters that came out in this style but it really works for Pineapple Express. The one-sheet portrays everything you need to know about this flick; Comedy and action. Although, some may confuse Pineapple Express of being a spoof film with a poster like this as it feels a lot like a one-sheet we've seen before only with a comedic twist. Regardless, I think it's a pretty sweet one-sheet.

The David Gordon Green-directed and Apatow-produced Pineapple Express hits theatres on August 8th.

Cheers.

Tropic Thunder Teaser Trailer

Shit blows up.

Two days ago we brought you details and the first picture from Tropic Thunder featuring Robert Downey Jr in blackface. Today a red band teaser trailer for the Ben Stiller directed war comedy hit the net. Click HERE to skip age verification and check it out (unfortunately it can currently only be seen on the official site).



The teaser isn't anything special but showcases what looks like some pretty funny footage. Who would have guessed Robert Downey Jr looks even funnier as a black dude while moving? It's also cool to see Danny McBride and Jay Baruchel get trailer credits.

I'm looking forward to seeing more footage from Tropic Thunder. While Ben Stiller has a track record of garbage this film looks like it has the potential to be pretty funny. Apparently Ben Stiller got the idea for this flick while on the set of Spielberg's Empire of the Sun back in the 80's.

What do you guys think of this teaser? Did you think enough footage was shown to get a buzz going for this flick? How do you feel about the influx of red band trailers hitting the net recently? Post a comment and let me know.

Tropic Thunder hits theatres August 15th.

Cheers.

Do You Think Y'All Can Handle This?

Danny R. McBride is king of the demo tape in the upcoming April release The Foot Fist Way.

Not many people have yet heard about The Foot Fist Way. The upcoming Paramount Vantage comedy has earned a rating of 9.7 on IMDB and has the entire Judd Apatow crew obsessed. Jonah Hill has labelled the film the "Funniest movie of all time" and comedian Patton Oswalt has been “declaring [The Foot Fist Way] a sui generis work on par with The Big Lebowski”. Check out the red band trailer below.




I've watched the above trailer a few times today and it looks pretty funny. Although, I'm not sure whether or not Danny R. McBride can carry a film on his back so early in his career. The Georgia-born actor has never had a starring role and is mostly unknown to most moviegoers. Hopefully this film is his big break. I enjoyed McBride in Hot Rod and look forward to seeing him in this summer's Judd Apatow-produced Pineapple Express.



It's also hard to buy into all the praise for this film generated from the Apatow camp. While they may genuinely love the film it's also in their best interests to promote an actor they are using in one of their future projects. We'll see come April when the film hits cinemas. The proof is in the pudding.

The Foot Fist Way hits theatres on April 11th. Check back to MediaZEALOT for updates on The Foot Fist Way and Pineapple Express leading up to their release dates.

Cheers.
