The 40 Year Old Virgin
United International Pictures has added a new 'Mature Audience Only' International trailer for Judd Apatow's The 40-Year-Old Virgin with Steve Carell, Catherine Keener and Paul Rudd. You can view the U.S. trailer here.
40-year-old Andy Stitzer (Steve Carrell) has done quite a few things in his life. He's got a cushy job stamping invoices at an electronics superstore, a nice apartment with a proud collection of action figures and comic books, good friends, a nice attitude. But there's just one little thing he hasn't quite gotten around to doing yet--something most people have done by his age. Done a lot. Andy's never, ever, ever had sex--not even by accident. So is that such a big deal? Well, for Andy's buds at the store, it sure is. Although they think he's a bit of an oddball, there's certainly a planetful of stranger (and homelier) guys who've at least had one go at having a go. They consider it their duty to help Andy out of his dire situation and go to great lengths to help him. But nothing proves effective enough to lure their friend out of lifelong chastity until he meets Trish (Catherine Keener), a 40-year-old mother of three. Andy's friends are psyched by the possibility that "it" may finally happen...until they hear that Andy and Trish have begun their relationship based on a mutual no-sex policy. Release Date: August 19, 2005 Studio: Universal Pictures Director: Judd Apatow Screenwriter: Judd Apatow, Steve Carell Starring: Steve Carell, Catherine Keener Genre: Comedy MPAA Rating: R (for pervasive sexual content, language and some drug use) Official Website: The40YearOldVirgin.com |

It does look quite funny.

A conservative's hero

I just think its REALLY sad that people cant think of a better idea for a movie than a 40 year old man who hasnt had sex. God, movie concepts these days are making my stomach churn.

I won't be having kids, especially if it means bringing them into this generation or the next. It's obviously pointless when it'll be a failed attempt at good, honest parenting. |
While I agree that the premise isn't the greatest, I did thoroughly enjoy Steve Carell's performance in Anchorman. That said, it still will have to go on my queue of movies to rent. I definitely will not go to the theater for that one.
|
yea i agree he was hilarious in Anchorman, if it wasnt be for him i wouldnt have really liked Anchorman
|
It does look like a rental. Catherine Keener has never let me down though, so I anticipate a good rental!
|
Looks like they're trying to milk his nervy performance from Anchorman. I think after seeing the trailer, there's probably no need to see the film, looks like all the best bits were in the trailer.
Possible typecasting for Carell? Oh well, at least Will Ferell isn't in it!!! Begining to despise him, his one trick pony is waring very thin! |
I wouldn't doubt if it makes us all laugh bunches of times...but there may very well be an equal amount of eye rolling and exasperated sighing to boot.

I understand that some things are arguably worse, but in my opinion, more things are undeniably better. For example: racism, sexism, homophobia, religious intolerance, bigotry against the disabled, and probably others I haven't thought of. However, these are all things that are still problematic, and I predict that in another 50 years all of those things will have improved once again.
And Godsend, I never told you what to do; I was a little harsh though, so I'm sorry if I offended you. |
Uh, you posted an opinion on a public message board, and he posted his in reply. Grow up. If you can't handle disagreement, then don't post such stark opinions on an open board for anyone to see and reply to. He didn't come barging into your home or anything.
I don't share Godsend's silly nihilism (which represents the kind of despondency and worldwide qualitative judgement that only a teenager living in the suburbs could possibly have), but at the same time kids were clearly far more well-mannered in the 50s. One trip to the mall or glance at national test scores shows you how far we've fallen.
Of course there's stupidity all over the world now a days...what can we do about it? Absolutely nothing. Looking at National Test Scores would make me happier if there weren't so many weed-toking idiots out there. Do you know how many gifted children throw their life away for a ******* high? It's not a one time thing. It's more like a 'lets go out during lunch and get high, dude.' Great!!! How can you stop it? I say start beating your kids *nod* Now you continue to talk about how far we've fallen and what not. I'm sure your right-sided view can make things all the much better. So do me a favor, and do something about it. Add to the crap or reduce it.

Gotta get to work. |

I don't care...but it gets to the part where he's silently saying your opinion sucks and you should follow my views. If you didn't sense it, blow your nose and take a sniff.
But regardless of that, it doesn't change what I said at all: either stop posting controversial things on a public message board, or grow thicker skin. You should be prepared to have your opinions challenged; even harshly. You're not some poor, defenseless newbie. You ought to know how it works by now.

I take it, however, that you DO, in fact, live in the suburbs? I mentioned it because teenagers living in relative comfort in the wealthiest nation in the world aren't in much of a position to go around spitting out a jaded view of a world they still know very little about. But for some reason, they seem the most likely to do so.

Am I in the right place?
