Kevin Smith wants Seth Rogen as his superhero: Ranger Danger

cinemablend.com — Smith says, “I'm going to do the science fiction superhero movie. It's going to be an original superhero that I've created. It's stewing right now. I want to do it, though, and, God willing, it will star Seth Rogen.”

  • dafragsta, on 09/10/2008, -0/+22... meanwhile Affleck looks on forlorn while a single solitary tear runs down his cheek as he clutches his Fashionable Male costume.

    "I was the bomb in Phantoms."
  • paranoiabacon, on 09/10/2008, -4/+25Not to be the voice of dissent here but I'd love some comedic diversity. I'm sick of seeing seth rogen and thinking seth rogen.
  • therearenorules, on 09/10/2008, -1/+18Seth Rogen as a jetpack-toting super hero? that sounds awesome, and possibly hilarious.
  • CYR1X, on 09/10/2008, -3/+19Will it involve weed?
  • pcrazy, on 09/10/2008, -6/+22Please no more Seth Rogan. Pretty soon people will pay to see a movie with Seth Rogan sitting in a chair and staring into a camera for 90 minutes.
  • dafragsta, on 09/10/2008, -1/+17All you ***** are gonna pay. You are the ones who are the ball-lickers. We're gonna ***** your mothers while you watch and cry like little bitches. Once we get to Hollywood and find those Weinstein ***** who are making that movie, we're gonna make 'em eat our *****, then ***** out our *****, then eat their ***** which is made up of our ***** that we made 'em eat. Then you're all you ***** are next. Love, Jay and Silent Bob.
  • inactive, on 09/10/2008, -0/+12Who would Jason Mewes play? Obviously he can't be his side-kick... the villain, maybe?
  • wampalord, on 09/10/2008, -0/+10What the ***** is the Internet?
  • inactive, on 09/10/2008, -0/+9No doubt Bluntman and Chronic will make an appearance.....w00t....
  • travis712, on 09/10/2008, -5/+13Seth Rogan is a great actor as far as comedies go. So go ***** yourself, because Knocked Up and Pineapple Express were ***** excellent movies.
  • bmw021, on 09/10/2008, -0/+8Kevin Smith is from New Jersey, Seth Rogen is from Canada.
  • davincih, on 09/09/2008, -10/+18You can't trust Canadians, but I trust Kevin Smith.
  • trafficlight, on 09/10/2008, -2/+9Jason Mewes as the villian would be downright awesome!
  • drbonemonkey, on 09/08/2008, -3/+10Woohoo, another potential hit for the good ol' Canadian!
  • themastersb, on 09/10/2008, -0/+6He's talking about Seth Rogen
  • Rkstar, on 09/10/2008, -1/+6Ranger Danger? The super-corny upstate NY early 1990's kids TV show host? Aye ya!

  • AssShanks, on 09/10/2008, -0/+5canada pwns.
  • travis712, on 09/10/2008, -4/+9Don't know how it'll turn out but I'll definitely be seeing it when it first comes out. Kevin Smith=awesome, Seth Rogan=awesome.
  • centran, on 09/10/2008, -0/+5Who says it has to be a comedy?
    What? Just becuase it has Kevin Smith and Seth Rogen it will be a comedy?... Oh yeah, right.
  • inhaler, on 09/10/2008, -2/+7Bring back ***** Knocker from J&SBSB. Mark Hamil's best roll since the voice of the Joker on Batman.
  • Adgeman, on 09/10/2008, -0/+4I know exactly what you mean; the dude is funny but put him in too many films and we're looking at a great candidate for the Will Ferrell Over-exposure award for 2011.
  • PrinceMissile, on 09/10/2008, -0/+4Don't get me wrong, I think Seth Rogen is funny and all, but lately he's become the new Will Farrel, with a new movie starring/including him coming out every few months.
  • inactive, on 09/10/2008, -0/+4@ y2kery
    Hmm... I have always run away from my filthy perverted freak self, you're right - it's time to embrace!
  • Torley, on 09/10/2008, -1/+5I'd like to see Seth Godin as a superhero!
  • AssShanks, on 09/10/2008, -0/+3lol thats all you had to say and you get dugg up. genius.
  • deb4te, on 09/10/2008, -0/+3oh, whoops!
  • dafragsta, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2He was the bomb in Phantoms.
  • greenvortex, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2There was already a local TV character in Albany, NY named Ranger Danger. He had a catchphrase: "Uh yeah". He was played by local DJ Uncle Vito. http://www.pyx106.com/cc-common/mainheadlines3.htm ...
  • YuriSakazaki, on 09/10/2008, -2/+4Looks like Smith and Rogen really hit it off with "Zack and Miri". With as big a geek Kevin Smith is, this should be awesome.

    And no, Ben Affleck shouldn't be Ranger Danger. He's been in pretty much every other Kevin Smith movie ever except Clerks, let's get some new blood into the Askewverse.
  • Slayerdude51982, on 09/10/2008, -1/+3YES!!! This is awesome! If Zack and Miri is anywhere near as good as it looks, then this will be a sure fire hit.
  • majordanger, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2I should sue the bastards.
  • MetalFrog, on 09/10/2008, -4/+6Wow, Seth Rogen and Kevin Smith? This movie couldn't be any more terrible unless he gets Sarah Silverman to be the leading lady.
  • reticulate, on 09/10/2008, -1/+3Didn't Kevin already do the stoner superhero thing?
  • CriX, on 09/10/2008, -1/+3Kevin Smith sucks.
  • Adgeman, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2Will the sun rise in the morning?
  • cmw72, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2Most apples are red, but oranges are orange!
  • roxya, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2I don't understand how anyone can think Seth Rogen is funny.
  • hufferstl, on 09/10/2008, -0/+2Of course Kevin Smith wants Rogen to be in his movie, the guy is box office gold right now and Kevin Smith movies aren't really the box office draw that he wants to be. He put Will Ferrell in Jay and Silent Bob Strike back to capitalize on his fame, and he is doing the same thing with Rogen. Without Rogen's name Zack and Miri wouldn't make more than 7 million the first weekend. Kevin Smith movies suck at the box office and make a ton on DVD.
  • inactive, on 09/11/2008, -0/+1I wish I still smoked pot so I could enjoy all these movies
  • cleric04, on 09/10/2008, -1/+2Unless they add Judd Apatow somewhere in the credits he belongs on a movie like this.
  • VacantThoughts, on 09/10/2008, -1/+2No, that movie was just.. NO
  • MadHarvey, on 09/10/2008, -0/+1What about Red State?
  • GB570, on 09/11/2008, -0/+1Yet another reason not to drink and drive...
  • Rikkochet, on 09/10/2008, -1/+2He's famous because he's witty and enriches what would otherwise be crude high school humour with tidbits of genuine insight that make his movies rewatchable.
    Look at it this way, if you dislike him so much: name me 50 people more famous than Seth Rogen who don't deserve to be. I went over 50 and I'm still on spoiled white rich girls.
  • MadHarvey, on 09/10/2008, -0/+1It seems I should learn to google first, and ask questions later...:

    "Last October The Weinstein Company passed on Kevin Smith's horror project, Red State, with everything going silent thereafter. Since then, Smith has directed Zack And Miri Make A Porno, which just had its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Smith was on hand who made a surprising statement. "First, I'm going to do a 180 turn and do a horror movie called Red State," Smith told Sci-Fi Wire. "It's going to be a total horror-political-psychological movie without a funny line in it." After Red State, Smith is working on a superhero movie, which he hopes Seth Rogan will star in."
  • Goldbricker, on 09/10/2008, -2/+3Rogen's already doing the Green Hornet. Why would he want to do another superhero character?
  • LilRabbitFooFoo, on 09/10/2008, -0/+1Yeah, this is a good match. Unlike everything else Rogan has been doing recently. Eesh he should NOT be in a leading man capacity (KNOCKED UP, puh-lease) even as a comedy. But Kevin will do him proud, hehe.
  • inactive, on 09/10/2008, -0/+1I ***** LOATHED Ranger Danger spots when I was little. "Washing the turkey. Ah ya!" That line was so painful to hear that it's still stuck in my head. I didn't know who Uncle Vito was at the time, but now whenever I listen to him on the radio, images of his character enter my head and I become filled with rage.
