the answer: knocked up



The Question: What is the funniest movie of 2007?

A bold prediction? Maybe. But I could not stop laughing during the last Judd Apatow flick, The 40 Year-Old Virgin, and from the looks of the trailer, Knocked Up makes its comedic older brother proud.

The cast itself includes some carryovers from The 40-Year-Old Virgin, starring Seth Rogen as a portly, yet fun-loving dude who gets Grey's Anatomy's Katherine Heigl preggers after a one-night stand.

Granted, the movie will definitely be a bit vulgar. But, like The 40-Year-Virgin, I expect Knocked Up will balance some truly touching and genuine moments with its outright potty humor. In any case, my description of the premise doesn't do the trailer justice... you'll have to watch for yourself. Thank goodness for YouTube. And be forewarned, this is the R-rated version of the trailer so slap on your headphones if you're at work.
