This video recently surfaced of a very out-of-it James Franco giving an interview to MTV about his upcoming projects. One of his next projects happens to be the Judd Apatow-produced Pineapple Express (clip here), a flick about two stoners who get their hands on a special kind of pot called Pineapple Express, set for release in summer 2008.

Perhaps Franco's brand of method acting has simply spilled over into his real life. In that case, Franco is set to play Harvey Milk's lover Scott Smith in the film about the gay rights leader which starts shooting in January, and I know more than a few people who might enjoy helping him get into the role.

Adam Sandler's Roommate Screening Process: Check the Peen

Some puerile news from the world of grown-up fratboys...

Director Judd Apatow relates a story about his former roommate Adam Sandler:

"Apatow says, 'When we first moved in together, very early on he said, 'Let me see your penis.' I was like, 'No! What do you want to see that for?' He's like, 'I just want to know what I'm dealing with.' He wasn't embarrassed about it... He would tell other people 'Judd won't show me it, he won't show me it.' One day I'm going to the bathroom, standing up and I just see Adam over my shoulder. All he says to me is, 'All right, man. All right.' I guess it was all right."

Sounds about right for Sandler, which brings us to Apatow and gives us a chance to share this clip from the upcoming Apatow-produced film Superbad, on a related topic (possibly NSFW):
