I hope you’re not tired of Judd Apatow influenced movies ’cause here comes another one with “Drillbit Taylor”. While Apatow isn’t the director he helped ready the script which was turned over to his budding writers, Seth Rogen and Kristofor Brown. Rogen co-wrote Superbad, which I loved, and from the trailer it looks like a lot of his style can been seen in this one too. I’m glad to see Owen Wilson back in the saddle following his situation late this past summer. Next week I promise I’ll find something Apatow isn’t attached to, but these days that seems like a challenge.
