LAZY EYE THEATRE: On The Editing Room Floor

On The Editing Room Floor

Evidently this scene is cut out of the upcoming Knocked Up. Is it really or is it just another brilliant marketing scheme for this movie. Because if it is, I would have to ask why? Is it because it was the most unfunny part in the movie? If that's true then this may be the funniest movie ever created and might just be the silver lining in this big stinky turdy summer of remakes and sequels.

That is why Van Wilder is in my top 5 movies list. Perhaps that was too self-revealing.; May 31, 2007 at 10:56:00 AM PDT

Burbanked said...: I saw the movie this weekend, and I'm more intrigued by this scene now. Where would this have taken place and at what point in the story? I'm trying to imagine a setup for these two characters sitting together in what obviously isn't the stoners' house. Is it Allison's couch? And if so, why is he there?; June 4, 2007 at 5:35:00 AM PDT

One scene that made it into the film that I didn't think fit was the online sex offender search scene. There was no other mention of sex offenders in the story, and it just stuck out like a sore thumb.

Knocked Up was a great movie, and if this scene would have stayed in, it would have still been the funniest.; June 4, 2007 at 8:05:00 AM PDT
Burbanked said...: KU is a really, very good movie, but it's too long by nearly a half-hour. You're right that the sex offender thing could have been cut and the Ryan Seacrest bit went on WAY too long.

What's up with every movie being 2:20 long anymore? Has Hollywood run out of competent editors?; June 4, 2007 at 8:16:00 AM PDT
