I've been getting excited for this. Has the potential to be fucking hysterical.

This script is unbearably funny. Along with 30 Minutes Or Less, hands down the funniest 2010/2011 screenplay I've had the pleasure of reading. With Akiva directing, there's no way this isn't spectacular.

I didnt know it was written by Rogan and Goldberg.

They did a pretty sizable re-write, which I haven't read. The original was so, so brilliant on its own, so hopefully this doesn't turn into a 'wasn't broken, but got fixed' scenario. That could be the one downfall.

Is there any sort of action or sci-fi elements in the script? I mean I realize it's a comedy, but anything more?

Oh, yeah. The second half turns into a very well-balanced sci-fi comedy with a few brief action scenes. I can hunt down the script and PM it to you (or whoever's interested) if you'd like. I highly doubt the Rogen/Goldberg draft is floating around, but like I said, the original is still just great.

i'd like that if you don't mind

I fucking adored 30 Minutes Or Less. Very raucous, very in your face, perfectly paced action-comedy. 86 minutes is a great length for that kind of flick, and the main parts were written for the people who were cast, so it couldn't have worked out any better. Everything I could've asked for and more.

And I'm working finding the script, I'll hit everyone up once I find it.

I'll never get why it didn't.

i don't get it either, horrible bosses did awesome and it's in the same vein.

Loved 30 Minutes or Less, just thought the ending was REALLY abrupt.

I really have trouble tolerating Vince Vaughn these days but I'll give it a shot.
