  • Rogen's time has come and gone. He needs to go away, and stop raping superheroes, in a pathetic attempt at an extra minute of fame.

  • stfu about the missed kiss, and get to talking about Green Hornets. first 1:30 ishould be cut.

  • the trailer for the green hornet is actually pretty good

  • This guy is going to be the Green Hornet!  Well that is one movie NOT on my listed! What an idiot!

  • I thought Ryan Reynolds was going to do the Green Hornet.

  • @quiksix25 Ryan Reynolds is going to play Green Lantern. Two different heroes, two different comic companies

  • @Toast960 Alright, easy fanboy

  • @quiksix25 he was just telling you whos playing what hero, there was absolutely no reason for that smart ass remark...

  • @whogreg1 you obviously can't detect sarcasm, and that comment was dripping with it.

  • @quiksix25

    green lantern =P

  • I literally love this guy man.....and I'm a guy...

  • Jason Scott Lee would be so much better as kato....

    He played Bruce Lee the original kato

  • "ya we killed around 400 nerds last week" LMAO

  • RIP 400 nerds...

  • lmao a hotbed of not kissing women

  • jay chou makes this movie

  • I always pictured him to be too fat and stupid (Superbad) to get this part.

  • Yes Seth Rogen, you caused me to not lose my virginity at a very old age.

  • People don't do their research the TV show is actually less accurate to the source material than this movie. Originally in the radio serial that The Hornet/The Green Hornet the main character WAS named Britt Reid and was a newspaper reporter.

  • Cool another way of look the Green Hornet

  • I don't know why everyone is hating on this movie. So it's going to be different than the TV show. The Dark Knight is VERY different from the 60's Batman TV show and it is probably in the Top 20 movies of all time.

  • @CrazyFunnyFricke no way is TDK in the top 20 of all time.

    And i dont think its the movie itself people are hating its that Rogen seems completely out of place in the in it. i love rogen in knocked up,pineapple express ect, but his rambling style works only for thos certain films, in a action superhero movie,even a comedy one, i dont really think it works, Owen Wilson would have been better imo

  • @CrazyFunnyFricke true...but the batman 60's show was campy an intentionally a different tone than the actual story..the dark knight is very close to the original story..i dunno about the green hornet film..but i don't really have an issue with it being an actual comedy..i just think seth is a little too goofy..for the role...but hey..people felt the same way about michael keaton as batman..and he convinced all the critics..

  • @pjbutl2 Exactly...there was a time when people couldn't see Bruce Willis as an action star. They could only see him as a comedic actor.

  • @pjbutl2

    I had Harrison Ford in mind for the role a while back. I actually started writing a screenplay about 10 years ago for "The Birth of the Green Hornet". Never quite finished it but I knew it was a great idea for a movie.

  • @pjbutl2 Dick Giordano, who was a DC Comics exec and artist, confirmed that for about a day, Warner Bros. thought of Bill Murray as Batman and Eddie Murphy as Robin!

  • seth rogen you are a great actor but your not for the green hornet

  • @leonakalife thank you! lol, he's cool but I cant picture that either.

  • Talk about Jay Chou damnit!

  • @heatherjrock Love Jay Chou he's gonna be sooo kick-ass in this movie!!!!

  • Fuck Jimmy Fallon, Seth Rogen should be the host of Late Night. By the waym yes I know this is Jimmy Kimmel Live, but I'm just saying. At least let him host some weird Whose Line Is It Anyway revival.

  • whats up with all the fake laughter....

  • saw the trailer...sorry it looks bad

  • So when's this movie coming out?

  • @reddragon22344 it will come out jan. 2010

  • @wendylishow jan.2011

  • @wendylishow Jan. 2011 :D

  • @wendylishow 2011

  • Seth Rogan....nuff said

  • I RATHER SEE JIMMY KIMBEL AS THE GREEN HORNET THAN SETH ROGEN ..

  • @koolwen51 hater

  • He is great, so funny :P

    

  • Wheres the next part of the show?

  • Seth's the man

  • I am in love with Seth Rogen, seriously, it is creepy. . .

  • @aRoseByAnyOtherName OMG I know what you mean. Everyone thinks I'm weird because I think he's hot!

  • Christoph Waltz is in this too

  • i cant belive hes playing green hornet. his laugh would always give him away

  • FuucK! I thought Micky Rourke was going to play the Green Hornet...

  • "Ground zero for not kissing women" lol Seth is so funny

  • You won't believe what movie he going to shove up his fat ass

    Ant man

  • @waneDX no wonder why megen rejected you

  • does the third part excist?

  • Who the? Why? How? Come on just..... I give up. If you watch this movie your a waste of life.

  • He's baked.

  • Forget the 3D CONVERSION scam, the original Green Hornet was a serious stud guy - a big dude with martial arts legend Bruce Lee as his sidekick Kato. Now Hollywood is trying to make us pay for a fat, dumpy druggy Jew and written by the same druggy comedy writers. Add it up: 3D "conversion" crap plus terrible jcasting = no way I'm spending $13.50 to watch this - this is Hollywood just trying to make money. This movie is an abortion.

  • @MoveOnDotOrgg ,Agree 100%!. I could not have said it better.

  • Seth Rogen as the dumpy Jew.

  • lol why did he say, "way more famous than Jonah hill". why jonah hill?

  • @bensley56 cus jonah hill is a friend of seth rogen, and probably one of the guys who went with him. :)

  • @Siviz4

    Would yo u teabag Jonah Hill ???

  • Love the way people think that because you like comics, you have no hope when it comes to kissing anyone. Or having sex. With anyone.

  • @tehJelly

    funny how Ryan Reynolds reads deadpool comic books yet he is married to a woman with enormous breasts

  • @Detth2you I think the main thing is... well, he's married.

  • @tehJelly

    yeah and the breast thing is just a bonus

  • Where is green hornet from?

  • Jack black should play Kado ,with sticky tape holding his eye's to look asian

  • i like all of rogens movies THE HE AND APATOW WROTE. Observe and report did suck. think it would of been better if more of seths humor was in it.

  • you might as well have walley from leave it to beaver or potsy from happy days ....!!

  • van willaims probably say seth rogen sucks and bruce lee is probably rolling over in his grave ....!@!

  • @koolwen51 Why? They aren't assholes like you goddamn fanboys. Plus, Rogen's career is far from dying you retard.

  • seth rogen .. as the green hornet, all for his dying carrier ta get just a minute of fame ..what a waste ....!!!

  • what a nerd. this guy seth rogen..!!?? the green hornet.. oh hell no!!!

  • It's hard to believe that an annoying and marginally talented actor like Seth Rogen landed the lead role in the Green Hornet. I'm not saying that the GH is as relevant as Batman or Superman. However, I think the character deserves more than this dork, whose only ability is to play himself (i.e. Observe and Report).

  • @Archangel101576 i agree seth rogen sucks....!!!!

  • @Archangel101576 ,Rogen movies are annoying.

  • i'd like to hear what van williams has to say about rogen.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • This movie is going to suck. Poor casting.. and hardly no one knows of this character. George Clooney would have been great casting. He has that debonair look that Van Williams had.  For Kato I would have cast actor Jet Lei and with some CGI to make him look a bit tall. The car looks good but the mounted machine guns No way.... I hope it does well but I smell a stinker

  • @TheTalentedMrRipley1 Yeah cause George Clooney as Batman was suuuuuch a hit XD

  • Seth Rogen?....Jesus Christ man.....why would holly would ruin a classic

  • @Dragoncannon4 Well 1. its hollywood, and 2. Seth is funny as balls and a sweet actor, soo there not ruining much

  • @Dragoncannon4 well that would be true if it were a classic

  • his sarcasm comedy is so good!

  • oh, know wonder why he lost weight, he had to do Green Hornet

  • I cannot wait for The Green Hornet!!! That and True Grit are the movies I'm looking forward to this year

  • why are you so hateful! like you haven't even SEEN the movie or read the script! so how do you know that he isn't right for this movie? just because in the past the Green hornet looks WAY different doesn't mean they might want to go a different way!

    so stop hating on Seth Rogen See the movie Don't see it b/c I bet no one with CARE IF YOU GUYS DO! some times they do a different way for the Addicance so wait and see! and stop b$tching about it

  • becuse seth rogen sucks thats why..

  • @koolwen51 Yeah he sucks so mucj that he was the star of some of the biggest comedies of the decade, stop crying because hes taking the role of green hornet, I bet hes gonna do a good job

  • @TheAmazingstarman ,He does not represent a character like the Green Hornet. I have seen some of the fighting scenes and He does not look credible. He might have lost a lot of pounds but that is not the issue. He does not have the "Chemistry" to play a character like the Green Hornet.

  • @raulcitraro Oh come on anybody can be the green hornet, Rob Schneider could play him for all I care

  • @TheAmazingstarman ,In other words, U agree that Pee-Wee can portray a serious Wolverine?....C'mon!, who are u trying to fool?.

  • @raulcitraro Seth Rogen has nothing to do with pee wee lol Like I said before, when batman came out in 1989 no one really believed in Michael Keaton has the dark knight, but after watching it most people agreed, he nailed it. Sure Rogen is a surprising choice but if it wasn't for him there would be no hornet movie cause no one wanted to make it, We haven't really seen him in a more serious role, he's not going to do drug jokes or anything in this, the guy's not stupid he knows people love hornet

  • @TheAmazingstarman Yeah, Observe and Report was hilarious, but it did take a slightly serious turn for a minute, same with Funny People...and I think he did great in it.

  • @raulcitraro anyway where did you see some fighting scenes?

  • @TheAmazingstarman ,Some scenes were shot in L.A., on a lot right behind the building where I work. We came down and got close. The stun double looks better as The Green Hornet than Seth Rogen. This movie is gonna be like Rush Hour, comedy and action. It does not suit well w/ the character of The Green Hornet. There is no room for comedy w/ The Green Vigilante and Kato

  • @raulcitraro LOL there was plenty of comedy in the original series lol

  • @TheAmazingstarman ,You are confused w/ Batman series back in the '60's.

  • @ktmarty2 well the fact that all the movies seth rogan have been in were comedies, of course ppl were kinda pissed. but i'm wondering, is the green hornet gonna be a comedy too? serious question

  • Damn this guy has a soothing laugh.

  • i think seth rogen is no green hornet,hes no britt read ,i think this movie will hit dvd in the 99 cents store in tyawuana over night...!! what a waste of time,money and film, all for seth rogen, to get his dying carrier a minute of fame.. what waste ..!!!

  • ya know so many people were waiting for this movie , but since seth rogen has stuck his nose in it .. it pissed of alotta people ..seth rogen is no green hornet .. what a waste of time money and film ..!!

  • this had better be good, or christ waltz has made a huge mistake. Nicholas cage was supposed to be in the movie. Nicholas cage is the Nickelback of acting...the worst of the worst...any movie with nic cage isn't taken seriously by ANYONE. The fact that he was going to be in this worries me

  • @drewsky684 what about gone in 60 seconds? he won an oscar for it, and i think he is a good actor

  • @drewsky684 Other than the fact that he won an academy award for leaving las vegas, and he is one of the most bankable stars in hollywood.

  • him as a super hero?

  • What do u mean?

  • Seth Rogen is the only reason The Green Hornet isn't going to fall completely into pop culture obscurity. He exists in most peoples' minds as piece of television of history featuring a young Bruce Lee. I think any attempt to bring the idea of the character to modern audiences is commendable. Only diehards will care about the details, but most of them won't be satisfied with anything less than the original. Give it a chance.

    I'm also pretty sure that Seth Rogen can do no wrong.

  • I still want to see the movie. Anything new of The Green Hornet is going to e a Godsend. Look how long it took for them to make a movie. I'm also excited over the new GREEN HORNET book by Terry Salomonson, which reveals the entire history of the radio, comic and TV series.

  • and turns out to be very dark and complex. This is going to be a comedy,"The Green Hornet Comedy Movie",what a nightmare!!

    Hey ,Rogen stick to comedy don't play the role of The Green Hornet". Play the role of Mike ,the reporter. You are a perfect fit for that role.

  • I wouldn't be surprised if he does an incredible job as the hornet with all this pre-hating, that's usually how it ends up working. All the people saying be "better" do it right and things related please get off your imaginary throne, it's not cool.

  • There is no hating towards Seth Rogen As one of a hard-core fans of The Green Hornet" we have the right to input our suggestions. I don't think Seth Rogen is cut to portray The Green Hornet, he does not look the part at all. He might have lost 30 lbs but that is not the issue here. This guy has a "stamp" on his forehead that says "Geek-Goofy-Doofus-Comedy. It is nothing against him,he should stick to what he does best, slap-stick comedy. The Green Hornet is not about jokes and comedy!!

  • That's called hating my friend, at least in my universe. Regardless of who's playing this role it doesn't change the fact you'll be throwing in the cash to see this movie. Once you manage to fathom that you'll start hoping by some miracle he manages to pull through instead of complaining about him having the role at all. Also, notice I never once said I disagreed with him not fitting the part, I've just acknowledged that being upset about it changes nothing.

  • @eureka0521 , Please give it a rest saying that I hate Seth Rogen. I don't have any animosity against the guy. The Green Hornet is Seth Rogen's vanity project and Hollywood pisses me off for going ahead w/ the project without taking into consideration the opinion of the hard-core fans. My father had the opportunity to work w/ William Dozier the producer of the Green Hornet back in the sixties and right off the bat,Van Williams told him

  • he did not want to play the character as a campy crime fighter. Dozier listened and the show ,even though it was on for one season because of the stubbornness of ABC executives insisting on keeping the 30-minute format, created a legacy and became one of the best TV shows of the sixties. Williams ,Lee and Dozier were fed up and therefore the show was canceled. Now,everybody regrets everything. Going back to the point,

  • Seth Rogen is making this movie w/ a lot of comedy in his mind. Some of the crew members working there have told me,this guy looks like someone going to a Halloween party dresses as the Green Hornet,he is not convincing at all. So my friend,in my universe emitting an opinion is valid. Rogen is good at playing these out of place-geek characters. He has created a market niche and should stick to it. Playing

  • The Green Hornet is a completely different ball game. I have seen him in two movies-Observe and report and funny people- . He definitely is not The Green Hornet.

  • Now,this guy ,Rogen,comes and pretends to characterize The Green Hornet as a comical nerd?. Please give me a F break!. Have u read what they are saying on other blogs?,go, browse through it. This is not hating,these are enraged hard-core fans who don't want The Green Hornet franchise to be damaged by somebody who does not understand the complexity of the character.

  • This guy has not taken the time to do research about the character,he just showed his ass on one late show saying "this is going to be a lot of fun w/ a lot of action". WTF!!

  • Lmao what the heck are you talking about? Half the claims you made about me saying things were false, and no one here cares about anything else you said. Does your reason for existence depend on this role? "The Green Hornet franchise can be damaged?" How so? Did TFU ruin the Star Wars franchise? I think you're taking this a bit too serious.

  • @eureka0521 ,You've got that right!, I am taking this seriously. Has Seth Rogen done research about how The Green Hornet came to be, NO!, He is a fictional character based on someone's life,does he know that?,NO!!. He just thinks,he can tackle this role and play this vigilante w/ dark needs in a humorous way. That's why a lot of hard-core fans are protesting because this guy is playing The Green Hornet in a light manner. And on top of that,he does not look the part at all.

  • Comment removed

  • I don't usually write on youtube but since I found out this guy was going to portray one of my favorite characters and damage it, I am on a mission to create awareness and try to, at least ,make Seth Rogen desist to play The Green Hornet. Hey!,He can cast himself as Mike Axford,the reporter who works for Britt Reid.

  • I'd like to marry Seth Rogan. Seriously.

  • @alanna4858: you can't spell his last name but don't let the marriage stop.

  • @MoveOnDotOrgg ooops oh yeah i see that now. Damn it. lol.

  • It never ceases to amaze me either the complete arrogance or complete stupidity of Hollywood to make a crapfest movie out of a great tv show or book; one example: Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan--a very great tv episode turned into a hack movie--I think the cinematic term is to "shatner" a movie.

    This will be as much of an abortion as putting Eminem in the role of Paladin in the talked about movie version of the great series, Have Gun Will Travel.

  • I liked Star Trek II the wrath of khan . But your point is right.

  • This is only compared to casting Gary Coleman as the "New and Improved Wolverine".

  • @badbook1

    Well I saw a production pic and Rogen looks quite thin. So that doesn't look like an issue. I just can't make the leap between him him and the green hornet. Clooney, as several people have already suggested, seems a natural choice for this. But maybe Georgie boy remembers the last time he was a superhero in that awful shitty batman flick and has thought better of it...

  • Yeah!!, he looks like Porky Pig w/ 30 lbs less. It has nothing to do w/ the weight. This guy,Rogen,does not look the part at all.

    On another note,in all fairness, it was not Clooney's fault that the Batman movie sucked ass. The script was terrible. Yes, I agree 100%,Clooney or Statham would have been a better choice.

  • In all fairness,it was not Clooney's fault. He looked the part and played it well. However,the script sucked ass.

  • The more I think about Rogen playing the Green Hornet,the more pissed off I get. I have been watching some of the scenes and the stun double does not look like him at all and, u can tell he is not Rogen,the body silhouette is not even close. I just can't imagine Seth Rogen,in a close up,sitting on the back seatt of the "BLACK BEAUTY", saying "Let's roll Kato". This is going to make me vomit. He should have been cast as Mike,the reporter. What the "F" were they thinking.

  • @raulcitraro: anyone who is old enough to have watched the REAL Green Hornet knows Seth Rogen is a terrible choice. Go back and watch the original series - you will be glad you did. Look at those two Jew idiots...disgusting.

  • @MoveOnDotOrgg ,I don't have anything against jews,however,Seth Rogen comes as the guy who thinks his jokes are funny. I have seen two of his movies and to tell you the truth, when I left the theater, I felt empty and having the feeling that I wasted time and money on this so-called film. This guy is a freaking moron. The majority of life situations are not what he tries to portray on his movies,they are fucking boring and stupid.

  • (cont.) That's why when He said,was tackling the character of The Green Hornet, it just made a lot of hard-core fan furious about it. He should try to tackle the character of "Potsy" from Happy Days,that's more suitable to his personality.

  • I don't care if he lost 30 lbs to play The Green Hornet. Now, he looks like porky Pig w/ 30 lbs less and wearing the mask of The GREEN HORNET; it makes me puke!

  • Seth looks worse after he lost weight..  T_T

  • so you can stick that where the sun dont shine eternal perfection ..so if seth rogen the green hornet whos going ta be kato .. gary colman seth rogen..!!?? the green hornet !!!?? oh my god..!! what a waste of time money and film.. this will be on video overnight at the 99 cents store in tiyawana.. what waste!!!!

  • Dude, shut the fuck up. Now you're just repeating exactly what that other guy said, word for word. Be original, come up with your own oppinion. PEACE.

  • just agreeing what wolfman said, nope not repeating anything my eternal butt fuck seth rogen sucks!! and im not the onl one that agrees..

  • You're the only one that thinks so while watching a fucking full Seth Rogen interview, you dickhole.

  • @EternalPerfektion whatever you say, eternal butt fuck..!!

  • @koolwen51

    Oh, how fucking clever. *sarcasm*

  • @koolwen51 You're fucking weird.

  • Shut. The. Fuck. Up.

    "CAN YOU SEE BLAH BLAH AS BLAH BLAH?!>!>@>? Blah blah as blah blah?!?!!212 So and so as so and so?!?!!111!!11!!111oneoneone..­."

    Honestly, no one cares...!

  • @EternalPerfektion if nobody ared you wouldnt have a coment my eternal butt fuck . seth rogen is no green hornet hes no van williams , he has bad jokes a poor actor. all for him to get his dying carrier one minute of fame ...!!

  • Ugh...whatever, dude, I'm done here.

    P.S: 51? And you're this immature?

  • This is not the type of character u should play,we don't want u to destroy the character of The Green Hornet, ur ego is so fucking bloated, that ur are NOT LISTENING!!

  • NOBODY GIVES A FUCK ABOUT WHO'S PLAYING THE GREEN HORNET, DUDE!! . If you really want to complain about it, go to a fucking geeks-r-us forum or something.

    Seth Rogen fucking rules!

  • @EternalPerfektion i agree with wolfmanrick, seth rogen is not funny . he a poor actor.hes no green hornet hes no britt reed i think he picked up the role of the green hornet just ta give is dying carrier just a minute of fame ..maybe wally from leave it to beaver or potsy from happy days but hes no green hornet, what a nerd idiot. i gotcha back wolfman..seth rogen sucks!!!!!! what geeeeekk!!you might as well make joan rivers wonder woman ..!!

  • Like I said, I don't really care.

    Go complain about that on a friggin' forum/thread...

    And you called Seth Rogen the 'nerd idiot'? HA, that's quite hypocritical.

  • He has got to be one of the funniest people in Hollywood. No doubt about it. Very talented and going to go very far!!! You go Seth!!

  • his laugh gets annoying

  • LMFAO 3:50 he giggles at the sexual innuendo he thought in his head when jimmy said " I'd love to see you drive the black beauty"

  • seth rogen is no van williams , he's no britt reed , maybe walley from leave it to beaver or potsy from happy days but hes no green hornet. you might as wll make woody allen superman , or danny davito batman ..

  • i have been a fan of green hornet for over 40 yr's and my grang father is even a bigger fan .what the hell is this guy playing the hornet for come on we wait'ed long enough not for this ass hole to play the greenhornet

  • Has Seth Rogen lost weight?

  • @yungwun412

    a lot haha

  • i tottaly disagree .... he said that theres already a superhero with no powers with a car that has a gun im ready for a good superhero movie with out the dark!!! geez

  • I know it may seem unlikely but i think people should give him a chance. he just might surprise us. I think he has a good shot at doing really well as the green hornet.

  • I think that Jimmy Kimmel would be a better Green Hornet than Seth Rogen.

    I can't Believe They Chose Seth rogen to play the Green Hornet. Who's Playing Kato? Jerry Lewis?

  • No an asian pop singer named Jay Chou is playing Kato. A POP SINGER wtf. They are following up Bruce Lee with a pop singer. This movie is going to be a disaster.

  • i agree.. i think its a waste of money,time and film.. seth rogen!!?? the green hornet!!!??? oh hell no!!! .. what the hell were they thinking!!!

  • i  agree jimmy kimbel would make a better green hornet . if you gonna make seth rogen the green hornet you might as well make joan rivers wonder woman and
