Judd Apatow on Script to Screen

you know what I was watching madman the
other day my new favorite show and it
was the first time I felt really bad
about not working in TV I’m like oh that
was fun when we did freaks and geeks but
I can’t seem to crack the code on how to
not get cancelled quickly I don’t think
there’s a pineapple TV series happening
in the future maybe not but Judd
Apatow’s films keep cracking people up
i’m your host laila for watchmojo.com
where we invite you to check out what
the producer of pineapple express has to
say about getting movies from script to
screen everything that we have done has
been a result of long periods of
unemployment yeah followed by the
ability to get all the stuff made that
we wrote when no one would make it to
the chronology of this windstorm of
projects is we were working on
undeclared and Seth and Evan wrote
superbad and their native in the end of
Canada and we wanted to make that and
couldn’t get anyone to make it I said
hey I got this idea for like a STONER
action movie maybe that’s more
commercial than super bad and they wrote
it and then we realized it was way less
commercials at least at the time though
he said okay well let’s start on
drillbit taylor and then you just kept
writing things and then suddenly they
said all those things you want to make
those things and it happened these her
hopefully this generations classic
comedies
