Heavyweights, Mighty Ducks (all of them), Little Giants and basically all those βunderdogβ movies that came out in the 90s. Imagine you're a screenwriter and your career starts at Heavyweights and ends with The King of Staten Island. MF shoulda ate a bullet after Knocked Up. I didnβt mind King of SI π€·π»ββοΈ

I feel like heβs kind of like Adam Sandler; he makes movies with and for his friends. And not really caring about the reception. But I could be wrong.

Sandler I kind of get, he's been with those guys 30+ years. Apatow seems more interested in grooming young comedians than quality writing. Idk, who the fuck am I, he bagged Leslie Mann and created Freaks & Geeks, but I'm just bored of the hype.

But I donβt know about the hype though? Do people still care about Judd Apatow?

Trainwreck was disappointing for me too. Its probably less about hype more like a dude that was in a great band 20 years ago and every shitty project since gets tagged with "ex-members of"

I guess I havenβt been paying attention cuz King of SI kind of flew by me and I had never heard if Trainwreck until it showed up on Netflix a few months ago.

Apatow has produced alot of fun things. He has directed way less than I thought.

Transmetropolitan. Also Jaime Hernandez's work on Love and Rockets really hit its stride, and Gilbert released Love and Rockets X, which so far has been the only thing he's done that I've really vibed with.
