“Playing a Superhero Was a Little Humbling”

Going from zero to hero in his latest American blockbuster, The Green Hornet, Seth Rogen plays a masked vigilante who’s in the ass-kicking business for its fame more than anything else. But he’s no typical world-saving hero. Instead Seth has stayed true and steadfast to his bumbling onscreen (and off-screen) persona by channeling his inner goofball to The Green Hornet as a good-for-nothing heir of a media empire.

Taking a stab at his debut superhero gig, Seth “never thought anyone would let him do it” and mused, “So there are moments in the movie where I can’t believe it’s actually me. Uh, but then I do something stupid and I can’t believe it’s actually me (laughs).

“Considering my superhero is not that good at it, it was a little humbling I guess. It was a lot of fun. I guess to get to see yourself just wearing that outfit is pretty awesome,” said Seth who was in town for The Green Hornet’s promotional activities with director Michel Gondry and co-actor Jay Chou.

“But at no point would I watch the movie and go ‘Man, I wished I was cooler’. I’m happy for Jay to look cool. I would be uncomfortable looking cool.”

Giving a slight shrug, the actor quipped, “I don’t know. To me, that’s just not what I’m good at. I think I’m much better at being goofy and stupid,” he chortled, clearly tickled by his own honesty.

I thought Seth did a great job playing “The Green Hornet.” He wasn’t supposed to have all these superpowers or super-strength … he was just a rich kid with an idea! I loved the movie!

You ruined a perfectly good opportunity to make a great movie with the possibility of sequels. The original Green Hornet character was never a snivelling, whining, big-baby of a character you made him out to be. He was/is cool under pressure and could hold his own in a fight. Your Green Hornet character couldn’t beat Robin (from TV series Batman) in a fight. I can appreciate trying to put SOME humor in what should have been a drama-action movie, but this wreaks of a Will Ferrel wanna-be comedy.

The car was GREAT, except the stupid machine guns from the hood of the car. Are you kidding me? Yes, it’s Hollywood make-believe, but some realism is always nice. With those guns hiding in the engine compartment, the engine would have to be the size of a leaf blower motor.

In addition to this weasel of a movie, Hollywood ruined Starsky and Hutch, with the same type of “lame-ass” characters and stupid humor and Mod Squad with again…..WEAK characters.

Somebody, grab a clue!!!!!!!!
