However, the hypothetical above with Rogen starring in Semi-Pro rather than Ferrell arrives from Rogen's success with raunchy R-rated comedies thus far. If Ferrell's upcoming Step Brothers flops (and after Semi-Pro and Walk Hard, it's not out of the question, though it looks funnier than both of those), Rogen will nearly have R-rated comedy all to himself, especially with mega building buzz for Zack and Miri Make a Porno and Pineapple Express. Also, would you find the trailer/concept for Step Brothers funnier if Rogen was starring instead? It's worth pondering. @ makeme

He and Will Ferrell aren't even comparable when it comes to their comedic styles. They're too different. As for Rogen starring in Semi-Pro, um, no.

But God bless Judd Apatow for making movies. He's great. I like that he’s been showing up in more movies, although something about “Knocked Up” that just didn’t do it for me.
