Watched an interview with Seth recently. Dude is super happy with his life. Wealthy. Working on passion projects left and right. He's living the dream.

He seems surprisingly well-adjusted too considering how young he got his start.
Yeah, it would be really awful to smoke weed and then have a successful lifelong acting career.
Seth's harmless. I don't get the hate.
Met him once when I lived in Vancouver. Said to my coworker: that last customer was so chill and nice. He said "that was Seth Rogen." And damn, it was.
He's fine as a person, I just find him annoying in most of his movies. I dunno, he always plays that guy in the friends group that makes everyone roll their eyes
Agree. I don't seek out his movies, but I've seen him in a few things. He's nothing special, but not offensive by any means. Observe and Report was pretty good, though.
He's just annoying to listen to.
But i like that he produces a lot of projects.
Him and his best friend from grade school have been writing partners thier entire lives. I respect that a lot.
He's great. Got famous making a bunch of movies with his friends, lives a pretty chill life
When you open the pouch/jar, it also plays a clip of him laughing.
huhuhuhuhuhuhuhh
I'd never imbibe again.
I gotta admit it would be great the first few times
I don't know if he has any controversies that would change this, but I'd let him bend me over a table
That would be quite the bong hit.
If you’re a Seth fan with Apple+ (or a tri-corner hat 🏴☠️) check out The Studio. Great cast, good fun. Also highly recommend if you’re a fan of continuous one-shot takes as they do them a lot. One of the episodes which is about a oner is done as such, it’s awesome.
Another recent one-shot show was Adolescence, which took a look at manosphere influences on a boy in a UK elementary school. I didn't even think about the one shot format until I was talking to a friend about it.
Adolesce was friggin amazing. We watched it high and had no idea what to expect and at one point I was just blinking and going.... WHERE IS THE SCENE CUT? WHERE IS THE SCENE CUT??? It was jarring for a bit but it was one of the best short shows I've ever watched. Incredible acting as well front everyone involved, especially the main kid
I recommend this show to everyone I know. Probably the best series I've seen in a long while. Apple+ content is pretty peak over the past couple years.
Not to mention the absolute stars that man brings together in The Studio, but all of his projects.
Such a great show. Every episode's a banger.
Hes not ugly, idk what the problem is..
Not ugly, but he looks like he's about to say the smugest shit you've ever heard
Stoners hate seeing other stoners successfully do things.
Party till the presentation
Preach brotha
Did he rape someone or something? Like, what did he do besides make some great “turn your brain off” movies?
I think it's literally just his voice that people hate lol
Oh wow, I’ve always thought he has a cool voice 😂
I think it's a cool voice but I wouldn't want to watch his movies all the time, it gets tiresome. I do like some of the movies though.
Oh definitely. I think the last thing I saw with him in it was Invincible actually, and it’s just his voice in that
That's all he did, apparently some people take issue with that
They probably forgot to turn their brain off for the movies 🤷🏽♂️
They'd be leading sellers, dominating the market.
Man, I used to love that guy. The he started getting involved with adapting comics to other media and fucked that up.
Invincible?
That's the one he didn't end up screwing up.
Green hornet, the boys, preacher; those he managed to wreck the characters bad enough that or was no longer the same thing. Production values were high, but when you start fucking around with making major changes to characters, you're changing so much that any minor changes you might have to make in an adaptation for it to work on screen turn into glaring flaws.
I tend to use the example of Butcher finding out his wife isn't dead, and that the baby is still alive too. At the end of the first season, that happens, and it undermines Butcher's entire character arc, his motivations, and doing that means so many events that are driven by his obsession and trauma fall flat.
There's other examples, and I'm aware that Rogan didn't make those decisions in isolation, there were other people involved. And, if that kind of poor decision making had been limited to one project he was involved with, or had been limited to less pivotal facets of the stories, I wouldn't blame him as much.
But he also was doing interviews and hyping the hell out them, talking about loving the original comics, including trying to get existing fans on board while claiming the projects were going to stay true to the original. But all the projects kept in the boys and preacher were the shock value aspects, which shows a lack of understanding the source material.
For all the flaws in the source material of both those shows, they were character driven, with fairly clear plot development linked to who those characters were/are. So the versions that made it to screen are full of holes because the choices and actions are no longer believable.
It's this whole thing lol.
Invincible lacks the production level interference of the boys or preacher, and didn't change actual characters the way green hornet did. Which, hornet at least didn't pretend to be the same green hornet, so it holds up better than the other two.
That’s the one he didn’t end up screwing up.
If he keeps staying true to the Invincible source material (2000+ comic pages) it'll be running for like 30 seasons
I wouldn't object to a long run like that.
Yeah, not that The Boys is super easy to adapt in the first place, but his wife being alive is such a major change for his character. It's also a change that has clearly impacted the plot line for the show, as it's kinda just meandering (at least as far as I've watched). The moment you remove that driving force, it puts a lot of pressure on the writers.
Exactly. All the screen writers have left is the edge lord part of Ennis to stitch together into something resembling a plot. And it showed a lot in the part of the second season I forced myself to watch. Even the best writers can only do so much when they have to both use an established story and account for such a major change
Yeah, I'm not going to say the original was perfect, but it at least stuck to the plot of "killing all supes" and the sacrifices Billy was willing to make to ensure that happened.
I think it needed some changes for TV and to modernize it, but I think they were willing to give up the plot once they realized they had a hit.
Ah well I only knew about invincible. But yeah it's hard to know how much he fucked it up or how much higher ups have.
I tend to blame him mostly because he was very prominent in pre-air publicity talking about bringing stuff to live action.
I think a lot of what keeps invincible close to the comics is Kirkman tbh. He's relatively protective of his stuff.
I find most of his movies to be pointless and boring.
