Banned Poster of ‘Zack and Miri Make a Porno’
The MPAA, film’s rating organization, recently banned the following poster for Kevin Smith’s upcoming movie, Zack & Miri Make A Porno, from the US. Their reason? The suggestively placed backs of heads. This is weird, considering a similar poster from another film had no problem getting past the censors - Sure, Dane Cook is 100 times hotter than [...]

Seth Rogen Admits He Loves Porn - “I Watch Tons”
Seth Rogen is basically a class-A role model for up and coming filmmakers. Smoke a lot of weed and watch porn then you will become a successful Hollywood actor/director and writer. Anyhoo, Rogen admits that when he initially came to Hollywood that all he wanted was to work with Kevin Smith. His wish was granted. Rogen stars with Elizabeth Banks in Smith’s “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” a romantic comedy with a whole lot of skin showing. The 26-year-old actor recalled a meeting nearly a

ZACK AND MIRI MAKE Approved Poster
The previous only-available-in-Canada poster was judged by MPAA as “Not OK”… I thought it was one of the F*in’ hilarious posters these eyes have ever seen and it agreed with the themes of the movie. Thanks to slashfilm, above is the ‘green band’ or ‘MPAA approved’ poster of ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO starring Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks in forms of stick figures. Damn Canadians have it so much better. Written and directed by Kevin Smith, ZACK AND MIRI MAKE

'Gimme a head with hair'
So sang the cast of the musical Hair more than 40 years ago. But it's a command that's fallen on deaf ears at the Motion Picture Association of America. Yesterday, the U.S. ratings board confirmed that it has banned the poster for the new Kevin Smith film, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, which has its world premiere Sunday at the Festival. The poster depicts the two stars - a surprised-looking Seth Rogen and a smiling Elizabeth Banks, both fully clothed - in split images, staring straight ahead. At the bottom o

Kevin Smith Talks Porn, Porn and More Porn
Writer-director Kevin Smith unloads about porn, porn and more porn and the inspiration for his new movie Zack and Miri Make a Porno.

Movie Review: Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make a Porno
I have a theory that Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make a Porno is actually just a chronology of Smith’s career so far as a filmmaker. The film starts off much like Clerks, with Seth Rogen trying to wake up for his dreadful job. Minutes later he is walking through the local mall with his roommate and best friend Miri, played by Elizabeth Banks, in a scene that is reminiscent of Mallrats. The high school reunion sequence that follows feels oh so Chasing Amy. And when Zack and Miri must band togethe

Love and Porn
As far as it goes, Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri Make A Porno is smooth and winning, largely due to Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks' engaging, alive-in-the-moment performances as longtime pals and roommates who discover, to their surprise, that they're in love with each other while making a low-grade, hand-to-mouth porn film. Call this one definitely better (and certainly more smoothly shot and cut) than Clerks II, heads and shoulders above Jersey Girl, a bit funnier than Jay and Silent Bob Strike

'Zack and Miri' Made a Poster so Filthy They Later Made This One to Replace the Initial, Filthy Poster
The MPAA rejected Kevin Smith's first Zack and Miri poster because of the implication that the back of someone's head placed at crotch level necessarily constitutes oral sex (why couldn't it be someone pleasurably tying someone else's shoe?). In response, Smith has made this new poster that's all like, "Fine then, if we can't suggest blowjobs, just take this crude drawing. How about that?" I get that, but is the typeface and lack of Kevin Smith-mention meant to insinuate this is a Woody Allen porno? Because

Zack And Miri Make A Porno Poster
It’s no secret I’m really looking forward to the next Kevin Smith flick “Zack and Miri Make a Porno”. I thought the trailer was just hilarious, I LOVE Elizabeth Banks and I’m still a fan of Seth Rogan (but he’s still never sold me on his ability to actually be a LEAD in a film, I like him more in supporting roles so far). Anyway, this new Zack and Miri Make a Porno poster comes to us via our friends over at MoviesOnline and I think it’s pretty clever. Check it o

'Zank And Miri' Poster Pulled
 MPAA vs. Kevin Smith: Round 3After the Motion Picture Association of America granted Smith's latest flick, Zack & Miri Make A Porno, with an "R" rating from their previous "NC 17" slam, they have now decided to ban the promo posters for the film. As described by IMDB's report, the posters displayed "the two stars, Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks in split images, fully clothed, with a tuft of hair at the bottom of the two pictures at about crotch level.""I understa

Elizabeth Banks funny, filthy
TORONTO - Bawdy, beautiful Elizabeth Banks is shivering, curled up in the refrigerated hotel suite where interviews for her latest comedy, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, are happening. Her director, Kevin Smith, a publicist tells her, likes the temperature cold (shades, or chills, of David Letterman). "But I'm tiny," Banks protests with a laugh, wrapping herself in a sweater. Petite in size, maybe, but hardly in personality. Consider her breakthrough role in The 40-Year-Old Virgin as a dirty girl who

Rogen Bares Some Skin In Toronto
All Seth Rogen really wanted when he came to Hollywood was to make a movie with Kevin Smith. His dream came true, and more: Rogen got to make a dirty movie with the director. Rogen stars with Elizabeth Banks in Smith's "Zack and Miri Make a Porno," a romantic comedy with a whole lot of skin. The 26-year-old actor recalled a meeting nearly a decade ago with a prospective agent who asked what his career goals were. That's when he confessed his desire to work with Smith, whose profanity-spewing raconteurs i

Frat Humor Will Kill Superhero Movies In Years To Come [Superhero Hell Movie]
While Will Smith's Hancock may have failed to kill the superhero trend in movies this summer, we think we've identified the actor who stands the most chance of being the unwelcome nail in this genre coffin - Seth Rogen. It's not enough for him to be writing and starring in the upcoming Green Hornet movie. Now he's being prepped to appear in a future Kevin Smith scifi superhero movie. When will the madness end?According to Smith, his superhero project is still two movies away, following the Rogen-starring Za

Seth Rogan says he watched a lot of pr0n to prepare for role
It takes a brave man to admit to watching tons of porn these days. Wait, no. It takes an average, normal man to admit to watching tons of porn these days. And that’s pretty much the reputation upon which Seth Rogen has built his career: the average guy who’s funnier than most. Rogen is starring in Kevin Smith’s upcoming film “Zack and Miri Make a Porno.” It’s about two best friends who decide to make a porn film in order to pay down their debts. Rogen says he was into the film from the

Domino Double Dating! Deborah Needleman and Jacob Weisberg Get Cozy With Elizabeth Banks and Hubby Max Handleman
"I don't know anything about what's happening at my magazine!" exclaimed Domino editor in chief Deborah Needleman Wednesday night at a party she was hosting for the magazine's fashion issue at socialite and contributing editor Alison Sarofim's West Village townhouse. Ah, Fashion Week. "I'm hoping it will still be there next week," she sighed. Ms. Needleman called Ms. Sarofim's house "the prettiest house I know. I can't figure out how to top it." Her own Tribeca loft, which sh

Toronto: Superman Goes Gay
Remember all of those advance rumors about "Superman Returns'' being the gayest superhero movie ever? They turned out not to be true at all, but I was wondering what ever happened to the actor who played Superman, Brandon Routh. It turns out Routh plays a gay porn star named Bobby Long (a reference to the John Travolta bomb?) in Kevin Smith's "Zack and Miri Make a Porno,'' which premiered in all its smutty glory to the press this morning. Just to doubly confuse things, actor Justin Long plays Bobby Long's b

Toronto Review: Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri Make a Porno
To say I enjoyed Zack and Miri Make a Porno would be inaccurate. I loved it, every last second, right down to the mushy story about love and relationships that Kevin Smith gets to in the end. It's hilarious, it's saturated with sex, and it's charming, too. To be honest, I think Kevin Smith has actually taken a gigantic step forward, away from his previous films like Clerks and Dogma, and ventured into new comedic territory that used to only be reserved for Judd Apatow. I thought Seth Rogen might not be able
