From the humorous...
Variety likes Forgetting Sarah Marshall: "Reprising his successful Knocked Up formula of uninhibited bawdiness and chick-flick sweetness, with side orders of slapstick and showbiz satire, producer Judd Apatow looks to have scored another long-legged hit with Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Crowd-pleasing confection sees the comedy auteur once again hooking up with fellow vets of cult-fave teleseries Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared — including, in this case, director Nick Stoller and scripter-star Jason Segel — who are perfectly in sync with his snarky romantic-comedy sensibilities. Result is a film that, like Knocked Up, should generate repeat biz among ticketbuyers and memorable homevid sales and rentals."

Just saw this. Really excellent. I love Segal as a lead.
What did you think of Russell Brand? Did you know who he was before FSM? Apparently Aptow is finding a vehicle for him next. He's gonna be a big star Stateside...
He was excellent! His character was much more rounded than the trailers would have you believe, and I'd gladly hand over my cash to see him in a starring role. He was actually really lovely in it - the same can be said for all involved.
Good news!
And, PS - Yes, I did know him pre-Marshall!
That's good to know.
