Forgrive me if I missed it but I didn't see a thread when I did a search.
This movie's getting a lot of buzz; I doubt I will see it anytime soon but if nothing else this will be a rental. I thought 40 Year Virgin had it's moments but only okay.
I don't watch Grey's Anatomy but Katherine Heigl looks stunning in the clips and ads I've seen.

Going to see it tonight. My friends saw an advanced screening and said it was funner than 40YOV, which I loved.

I think if you have the right sense of humor, the 40YOV is the funniest movie of all time. If Knocked Up is supposedly better, then we'll have a new winner.

Wouldn't it be funny if this was just a huge marketing scam and the movie was only 15 minutes long, ending with the chick having an abortion?

Not really my kind of movie, but the ladyfriend wants to see it and it's gotten great reviews, so I'll be going this weekend. I'm sure I'll enjoy it, but I don't expect to love it.

I'm looking forward to this one. Maybe even enough to get a babysitter.

This one looks great. 40 Year Old Virgin is one of my favorite movies of the past few years, and I've only heard good things about this one. I'm quite excited, though I don't think I'm going to be able to see it this weekend. Hopefully next weekend or during the week, but definitely soon.

I don't see why not. I haven't heard a single bad thing about it, and if I trust anyone to make a funny movie right now, it's Judd Apatow.

:shock: unfuckingbelievable!!!

I haven’t met a person who didn’t like Knocked Up. Even the critics love it. The film is currently the best reviewed Hollywood movie of 2007. And by Hollywood movie I mean wide release. And no, I’m not just talking about comedies. It’s the best reviewed wide release PERIOD.

At the time of this posting, Rotten Tomatoes had counted almost 130 reviews, giving the film an insanely popular 92% fresh rating. But it’s not just the critics that love Judd Apatow’s latest. Right now the average moviegoer has rated the film at 8.3 on the Internet Movie Database. Sure, there are only 1,323 votes thus far, and the rating is bound to go down as more and more people average out the vote, but an 8.3 rating is huge. If the film had enough votes, it would be placed in IMDB’s top 250 films of all time.

So if you haven’t already, GO SEE KNOCKED UP! Chances are you’ll love it. And if you don’t, well, you mustn’t have a soul or sense of humor.

Hilarious, probably better than 40 year old Virgin, which I love.

Liked it a lot. I will definitely have to watch it several more times to see if it holds up to the quoteability and repeat-watchability that the 40YOV has. But very funny, sweet regardless.

I might go see this tonight; I've been in the mood for a good laugh lately, and this one looks promising.

Saw this last night. It was a great movie, one of the best comedies I've seen in a long time.
