Right.. to be funny you have to have a broader understanding.. deeper and they can't.Just like the left can't meme. Their movies are crap because they are driven to put their one dimension leftist BS in them to try to brainwash us.
Being "funny" comes very naturally to some people, like Seth Rogan. I do believe that his career was based on a natural talent for being funny. Most comedy actors in Hollywood are not "funny" because they spent years honing their craft, like a standup comedian has to. Most of them are just people who have an instinctive sense of timing and humor.
For people like that, it's a very tenuous grasp they have on their talent. Back to Seth Rogan, he was one of these kind of people. He just had a good sense of timing and was a physical type that fit in well with a wave of comedy films that came out about 10 years ago.
Unfortunately for him, the last 4 years has significantly interrupted his ability to be funny since his mind has lost its grasp on comedic timing.
The ironic thing is, the roles that made Rogan a star? He didn't write. And those roles were written for him. I've yet to see anything he's done on his own, using his "talent", that's funny. In most cases, it's a complete bore.
Apatow was funny, not Rogan. Anyone would be funny if they had apatow writing their lines.
Maybe, but there was also a fair amount of improvisation in particular in Apatow movies. There's a scene in the unrated version of 40 Year Old Virgin where Rogan and Paul Rudd are trading snaps back and forth on "You know how I know YOURE gay?" that is pretty good. I don't know if that was all scripted.
