He was on the show tonight and he has nothing coming out right now so he promoted Heavyweights on Leno and told people to buy it lol. I thought that was pretty cool.

Heavyweights is one of my favorite movies so it was cool to see a 16 year old movie get a retro plug from Judd Apatow. I actually forgot that he co-wrote it, him mentioning it reminded me haha.

I saw that too, it was great. My friends and I love that movie, a lot of people have never heard of it and would be stunned to see Ben Stiller essentially doing his Dodge ball character haha.

Paul Feig http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0270552/ who is in the movie as the lanky counselor, also wrote Freaks & Geeks with Apatow. Crazy.
