No time for witty titles, it's time for the Pineapple Express Red-Band Trailer

It should be noted that this is the red-band trailer because the pot use in this trailer (which made me laugh so loud I fell off my chair) is a big no-no for the MPAA. The OFFICIAL trailer has not yet been released. Oh my god the shot of Seth Rogen jumping a guy from behind is GLORIOUS. Is it August yet?

Random Film Thought: Gotta go back in time

According to Entertainment Weekly's website (link and details are here) , God among men Seth Rogen is trying to convince 80's icon Huey Lewis (and I suppose by extension, the News) to compose a kick-ass theme for his sure to be classic The Pineapple Express. Apparently Rogen is a huge fan of "The Power of Love" as the theme of Back to the Future, though who isn't, and wants an official Lewis anthem for the flick. The film is an action-comedy written by the Superbad team of Rogen and Evan Goldberg, directed by indie muckity-muck David Gordon Green and starring Rogen and fellow Freaks and Geeks alum James "Noble Prize Otto!" Franco and with Lewis in the mix it just may have gotten even cooler. Is that even POSSIBLE at this point?!

Ok loyal blog-readers, here's my question, what's your favorite pop-song to have been created for, or is heavily identified with, a film? Is it "Power of Love" in BTTF, Ray Parker Jr.'s classic "Ghostbusters", "The Sound of Silence" in The Graduate, "New Slang" in Garden State or something else entirely. Those were just a couple off the top of my head. Please post your faves in the comments and lets get a little thing going here.


Also as an aside isn't "Back in Time" also kind of Huey Lewis' theme for BTTF? People clearly identify it with the movie, don't they?
