Pineapple Express

I don't go to the theaters much but I did recently rent Pineapple Express. This movie inspired me in many ways. It is the exact style of writing I am i trying to put on paper. It has everything, a great plot, absolutely hilarious dialogue, and most importantly it has great situational comedy. That is something I'm trying to work on. I think I am able to create good interior thought in my writing and decent humor, however I believe the true art of comedic writing needs to have funny situations. Pineapple Express had all of those, from the awesome one liners to the absurdly hilarious car chase scenes. What is amazing is that it was not only funny, it was a great movie. Usually comedies aren't taken seriously as theatrical art, however this movie should be in that category. I know I don't have the ability right now to create something as awesome as this movie, but it will be something I will be working on constantly and try to somehow harness a little bit of what this movie achieves. The ability for Pineapple Express to be a great film before it is a great comedy is what I will really try and incorporate and translate in my writing.
