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.
