Alternate 'Pineapple Express' Ending
You'll find the following alternate ending on the DVD for Pineapple Express, starring Seth Rogen and Golden Globe nominee James Franco.

There's nothing I hate more than when you wait for a DVD because you know the extra features are going to be great, and then when you get it, it's like the French language track, trailers, and a commentary by an associate producer and a

Ryan Seacrest is catching lots of flack for trying to high-five a blind American Idol contestant.

One of those hearty hugs men give each other that don't mean anything but look really suspicious.
