We're sort of the backdrop to remind the audience that a month ago this guy was a pot-smoking, porn-watching clod. We're like the Greek chorus, you know? All of our advice is so different that we literally are no help whatsoever. Segel: The reality of the situation is that if you're a dude who gets a girl pregnant, the first thing you're doing is going to your friends and saying, "What the fuck am I supposed to do?" And I think that's sort of the function we serve.

I knew that even if I sucked, the movie would be good just because Katherine Heigl and Leslie Mann and all my roommates are so funny. Rogen: I was very happy with the rest of the cast. I just thought, "He has his joke styles with everybody, so if I hire his real friends and they rehearse and improvise, it will sound exactly like what it does when Seth is hanging out with his buddies," except maybe funnier, because I only pick the funny stuff. Once you're improvising for hours on end, you're just going to do what's funny and natural."Īpatow: I think Seth has lived with almost every person that plays his friends in the movie.

This week kicks off our second annual Holiday Gift Guide with a look at some high definition releases, because nothing says holidays like a format war.
