It Was A Fucking Nightmare Seth Rogen Speaks Candidly About The Failure Of The Green HornetTime heals all wounds. Or at least it adds some perspective and allows talent to be divorced from the obligations of promotion, to be honest about what theyve made. And so, reflections on the franchise that wasnt, The Green Hornet, continue to roll. You might recall the producer Neal Moritzsaid in 2. Los Angeles coupled with the 3. D conversion, killed any shot at a sequel. Meanwhile, Michel Gondry flat out admitted that fans didnt like my vision of the superhero. But now, its Seth Rogens turn to weigh in on his first major blockbuster movie, and hes forthright and candid about what went wrong. Chatting with Marc Maron on the WTF podcast he admits that by taking it on, he and his collaborator Evan Goldberg fell into the trapwhen you start doing well, you inherent gravitate towards the notion, of doing the biggest thing that you can, basically. Going into the process wide eyed and keen perhaps made them blind to just how many voices need to be placated with budgets start going north of 1. We got excited about the prospect of having that opportunity to make a big, mainstream film that we did it, being completely naive as to exactly how much of what makes us good, would be basically stifled and evaporated, merely by signing on to do a movie of that budget and that rating, Rogen said. And really it was a combination of hubris, actors and filmmakers both working far outside their comfort zone, and the general machinations of studio movies where it always seems the focus is on the wrong places. Heres what Rogen had to say about what he calls a dark time While we were making it, it was a fucking nightmare. And Gondry, the director, is wonderful at smaller scale stuff but I think he did not mesh well with a blockbuster film. Read comics online in high quality for free, fast update, daily update.

And we had never made an action movie, he had never made an action movie. And if there is one thing I look back on like, What was the problem there It was just the budget. We cant make a really edgy fun movie for our types of people for that amount of money. Theres just too much skepticism that it draws. Mo money, mo problems. You cant take risks, the studio wouldnt let us take risks anyway. And that makes it very hard to make a movie thats exciting. Its weird what risks theyre willing to take. The script is under great scrutiny, the lines, the characters, the dialogue, he should have a father, it should be this, it should be that. We just wanted to get it made and not waste all this time. And then things like the action sequences, which is really where all the moneys getting spent, go under no scrutiny whatsoever. No one looks at it. Watch The Story Of Luke Online Hitfix. No one looks at the pre vis. No one looks at the storyboards. What we spent like literally 5. And thats whats crazy. The way the money was spent and the way the money is spent on a lot of these movies is crazy. When you look back on it, the things we spent the most money on were under the least amount of scrutiny of all the things in the movie. But overall, when you look back at the movies weve enjoyed making Superbad, Pineapple Express, Knocked Up, this one This Is The End, 5. There were so many times on Green Hornet where we were like, Itd be funny if this happens, and theyd be like, Yeah, well we cant do that cause its R rated. I think we hoped we could be the guys who made the edgy PG 1. And while Rogen certainly voices his disappointment in the reception to the movie It was hard to figure out what to fix because it was our highest testing movie ever. It tested 9. 5 out of 1. Sony were with them every step of the way, and they were never left holding the bag or full responsibility for the picture. But what lesson did they learn from all thisIt took 3 years of our lives and we always say, We couldve made five movies in that time, Goldberg said. We shouldnt make expensive movies where we cant make a million dick jokes, Rogen added during an appearance on another podcast Doug Loves Movies. Watch The Other Man Online Flashx. And would they ever make a sequelNo, thatd be a nightmare, Rogen told Doug with Goldberg echoing his sentiments bluntly I would rather just not work for a year.
