Pineapple Express Red Band Movie Trailer

Posted on Tuesday, February 12th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta

The Pineapple Express

A Red Band (read: uncensored or R-rated) trailer for the upcoming Judd Apatow-produced comedy Pineapple Express has hit the interwebs. I can’t imagine any of this drug humor could be shown in a green band version. Watch the new trailer below and tell me what you think.

Written by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the superstar team behind SuperBad, The Pineapple Express is about a stoner (Rogen) process server named Dale Denton and his dealer (James Franco) Saul are who forced to go on the run from the police and gang leader (Gary Cole), after Dale witnesses a corrupt cop (Rosie Perez) commit a murder. So why is it called The Pineapple Express? Saul is selling a new type of pot known as “Pineapple Express.” Malick-influenced indie filmmaker David Gordon Green makes a huge departure from his critically acclaimed dramatic films (George Washington, All The Real Girls, and Snow Angels). Pineapple Express hits theaters on August 8th 2008.

    to Rocio:

    i actually just saw the movie finally and was wondering the same thing. but the song in the barn rescue scene IS on the soundtrack. i have a ear for music so that might've given me an advantage, but a few hours after watching the movie i checked out the sountrack on amazon & all it took was hearing the sample clip for me to realize that the background music is actually just the instrumental for a song.

    the song is "Spiritualized - I Didn't Mean To Hurt You"
  • Anastasia
    Smoke weed before you see this and you will never laugh so hard again in your life.
  • Rocio
    Theres a song that plays during the scene where a bomb goes off in the underground mj growing facility, its a classical one... does anyone know what it is??? Its not on the soundtrack and i cant find it anywhere.

    Please & THanks.
  • I think it's the Bun B & Rich Boy remix of MIA's "Paper Planes" in the trailer.
  • Jay
    THUG LIFE!!!!
  • Justin
    Whats the name of the Rap song? anyone know?
  • Nik
    looks great.
    anything with a cast like that plus weed is gonna be great.
    Legalize it it just makes these movies funnier!
    N.O.R.M.L
  • Nyall
    this movie looks sick. ill probably see it twice though the first time compleatly blazed. the second not so i can actually watch it. i saw clover field blazed ... not a good idea.
  • Zeeshan
    mabey it might turn out to be a beter video then all the other stoner related comedy videos.......
  • Ross
    Looks really good, I hope there's a new trailer attached w/Pineapple Express for Zach and Miri Make A Porno.
    I also assume that the DVD release of Pineapple Express
    will contain something for Year One as well.
  • danielle
    the song in the trailer
    is paper planes: M.I.A.
  • olivia
    ohkay i love that song that plays in tha trailer but idk what its called. does anyone/?
  • Terry
    The song in the trailer is "Paper Planes" by M.I.A.
    hope that helps.
  • Nick
    reservoir dogs meets dude where's my car, was my first thought. honestly this movie looks incredibly original, and is probably going to be amazing
  • yeah uh huh
    "but they got pothead girlfriends who need a night on the town every three months."

    That's some funny sh*t Pete!
  • Matty Mu
    the song is M.I.A Paper Planes
  • CONKLIN KONG
    THIS IS GONNA BE LIKE "GOD'S VAGINA"....classic line...LOL...
  • CONKLIN KONG
    PINEAPPLE EXPRESS is going to be an instant classic, cant wait for the flick in theaters, but DOES ANONE know the SONG that is playing during the RED BAND TRAILER like a rap song by a female volcalist...please post up the title of this song....WHAT IS THE SONG CALLED?
  • Pete (original)
    Jerry Butler said "why make movies marketed to potheads everyone know that they torrent"

    but they got pothead girlfriends who need a night on the town every three months.
  • I usually hate stoner comedies but this actually looks good. The M.I.A. track kind of sells it for me.
  • Robert
    Enjoy puff as much as the next guy, but that looks like load of crap. Seth Rogan's popularity is surly a sign of the impending Apocalypse. Baffles me to this day.
  • Webb
    OHHH WOAH IT IS THE NEXT JUDD APATOW MOVIE WRITTEN DIRECTED AND ACTED IN BY JUDD APATOW, I LOVE JUDD APATOW.

    Really though, I'm a big fan of his, but I'm also a david gordon green fan, I hope he gets SOME recognition if this movie is any good.
  • Jerry Butler
    why make movies marketed to potheads everyone know that they torrent
  • A-list names always get credit for stuff, even if they have little to do with it. Notice on the poster it's not just "Hostel 2", it's "Quentin Tarantino presents Hostel 2".
  • Webb
    So apatow is producing right? I'm not sure why he's getting so mucn credit already when Green is the director. Weird stuff.
  • Eric
    Judd is the Steven Spielberg of Comedy. Ok, maybe Mel Brooks is ahead but of this century he is
  • Tsiu
    "Not a Compliment" "You are high as a fucking kite" I really hope there are more gems like these. I'm stoked about this flick ahah
  • broseph
    i had the opportunity to go to an early screening for this back in august, and i have to say it surpasses any of apatow's films by far. i was a bit skeptical about the chemistry between franco and rogan before attending this, but they just complemented each other perfectly.
  • jhammer12
    This movie looks great, the Apatow geniuses got another hit on their hands.
  • salthegeeek
    + it looks like a indi pic
  • salthegeeek
    i like the cinematogarphy in it
    it looks like the new superbad
  • Good to see that Franco's back with the Apatow crew - I LOVE how they keep using the same actors in everything, the movies just feel so familiar. And love the style of this one, especially the typography. Seems like almost all comedies nowadays have HUGE RED BLOCK WRITING that just feels.... dumb...
  • Wow, this is honestly, probably the most original thing I've seen in a long time.

    "That is good weed... That is good weed... THAT IS GOOD WEED!" LOL
  • Pete (original)
    i don't smoke weed, nor do i plan on it, but this looks hilarious. i saw harold and kumar in a theater with potheads. we all laughed a lot. so what i'm saying is, if you love freaks and geeks, or movies, this will be awesome.
  • fellaface
    That was hilarious.
    I really can't wait for this movie!!!!
  • Tsiu
    Fucking rad. Thank you Peter! You the man.
  • Definitely think this is James Franco's best performance ever, by far, and I've only seen this trailer and the clip on the 'Superbad' DVD. Reminds me of a very drugged-up version of '48 Hrs.'
  • Holy crap. That looks awesome. I had no idea it was going to have action. I figured it was just going to be a mainstream pot smoking movie like Half Baked, just much better, of course. Wow. I'm totally psyched and may have even caught a little contact buzz off that one. Thanks /Film!
  • Hunter Stephenson
    There Will Be Bongs.

    Hope the theme song by Huey Lewis pans out. Not the biggest M.I.A. fan. Chromeo would have been killer for this trailer.

    Foot through windshield is classic.
  • Matt
    greatest thing on film.... and the song is M.I.A.'s paper planes
  • Mitch
    What is the calm/rap song playing at the end of the trailer?
  • Mouse
    Damn, and by Seth Rogen, I mean Judd Apatow.
  • Mouse
    Looks great to me. As someone who finds Seth Rogan movies to be hit-or-miss (loved 40-Year-Old Virgin, hated Knocked-Up), this will probably be a hit for me. Drugs and murder: the classic combination.
  • Jacobi
    I think that looks pretty awesome, and the idea of a stoner action movie has a lot of potential. I especially love the foot-through-the-windshield scene. Very funny.
  • Lewis
    Love the musak
  • larry
    i can't wait.

    by can't wait, i mean, i can't wait to smoke before going to see this, because i just don't see it translating well otherwise.

    i love franco and rogan, though, so i'll be looking forward to it.
  • Webb
    Kinda hard to get a feel for this one. And it's really bizarre that David Gordon Green is the director.

    Looks like it's going to be either a really original stoner comedy with a terentino twist or just completely miss and be horrible.

    I love Green's films, though I haven't seen Snow Angels, so I'm hoping it's going to be a good one.
