You're a moron for even having gone to see Knocked Up. The previews were more than indicative of its worthlessness. Shame on you.

Freaks and Geeks is undoubtedly the best thing Judd Apatow has ever been involved in.
I really enjoyed Knocked Up, but the previews for it were terrible. They pretty much picked the least funny parts of the movie to show, which is odd. But I see that a lot when it comes to comedies in general. Some of the baby-related jokes in Knocked Up were too predictable (like Rogen thinking he could accidentally "poke" the baby during sex). Also, Martin Starr, who played Bill Haverchuck on F&G, wasn't given a good enough role in Knocked Up. He's obviously capable of being hilarious, so why not actually use him for more than just a few jokes about his facial hair?
