Zack and Miri Make a Porno Master Thread - Blu-ray Forum

Where was that from? Because it does not say, "make a porno" on the cover or the disc. Well I want it to, and so I will not buy it from anywhere that does not have that version. Best Buy better have the right version.

i love kevin smith's commentaries, makes me sad he didn't want to do one for this movie. it's still a day 1 purchase, it was hilarious

I could be wrong but I think it's just a few of the major in-store retailers doing this. But either way who cares?...its the same movie and its raunchy as hell

It was reported by newsaskew that Wal-Mart would be getting the conservative "Zack and Miri" cover art (minus the "Make a Porno). No other stores were mentioned. Wal-mart is notorious for censoring it's music so this is no surprise. Actually, this cover version might only exist solely for Wal-Marts.

Certain TV networks also demanded that the "Make a porno" line be removed from commercials as well.

This was from WalMart. I have seen the cases for Movie Gallery as well and they do not say "Make a porno" either.

I just couldn't bring myself to enjoy this movie. Loved forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up, 40 year old virgin, Pineapple express, etc.. Absolutely hated this one.

Some nice bonus features for people buying this though!!

Variable · 01-29-2009, 12:10 AM

ugh, no commentary. I love Kevin Smith commentaries.

no rush to pick this up, then. Unless it's the best thing to come out that week I'll probably wait until it's cheap cheap cheap.

Keiths Light · 01-29-2009, 03:26 AM

I disliked this movie. I had high hopes as i like other comedies of this nature, but this movie just did'nt deliver in my mind.

This is a Kevin Smith movie. Different filmmaker.. but same old Seth Rogen. Again. For, what, the 10th movie? We get it. He's an overweight loser that's oh so loveable.

Saw this tonight and didn't like it. It had funny moments, but I found it not my brand of humor. Poop jokes, perverts, and a sappy love story? This flick just doesn't know what to do with itself. First it's great, then it descends into misery with a bad romance and toilet humor. Ah well, typical from those who gave us Jay and Silent Bob.

So you didn't like it as much as you liked The Water Horse? lol lol

seriously, what's it like to go through life without laughing? must be miserable

2000man · 01-29-2009, 07:41 AM

It had its moments, but the ending was terrible. Kevin has hinted he might do a podcast commentary down the road. From what I gather, he was upset with the marketing of the film and did not want to do commentary because he would probably just blast people and burn bridges

So you... really expected a Kevin Smith movie to not be a Kevin Smith movie?

I didn't get the memo. Is it cool to hate Seth Rogen now?

Mike53421 · 01-29-2009, 03:45 PM

Well, let's review Rogen's big roles:

Pineapple Express --> Stoner
Superbad --> Funny cop, not a stoner, bit of a drinker
Knocked Up --> Stoner, but soon-to-be responsible parent
40 Year Old Virgin --> Funny, but "rude" guy friend, no indication of being a stoner

I liked this movie, alot, and definitely am picking it up on Tuesday. I found it pretty cool that despite similarities to previous roles, he wasn't just a stoner in this one PLUS it had Kevin Smith directing, was like worlds colliding.

There will always be critics, to each his own. I enjoyed the movie, I like Seth Rogen's movies (aside from Pineapple), and I really enjoyed this one.

I think I remember him making a reference to growing pot when he and Carrell are loading the TV into that woman's car.

What the F**K is with wal-mart... First their music, now their other media???? Guess Wal-mart will be chalking this up to a loss.. They might as well just not stock the title at all..

I'm a BIG Kevin smith fan, and this little stunt has made me just decide to boycott buying anymore blu-rays at wal-mart at all..

I work for walmart myself and we have ran into problems 2 where people have returned stuff for the sole fact its not 100% authentic back when Madden 09 came out we had a tournament for it and many people complained that wit the game and Brett Farve not being part of he Packers no more that there's no reason 2 buy it bc its fall advertisement but that alone affected a lot of stores so we came up 2 the idea of photoshop him in a Jets Jersey for inserts for all the games and the phto shop pic really looks authentic so we will prob do the same thing for this movie as well
