Im surprised you've not come across this guy before.
If you find him in his niche - he is
great IMO. (His niche of course generally being movies associated with alcohol and marijuana use and off color adult themed humor)
I think your disappointment with Green Hornet stems mostly from the fact that fhe film spent several years in "development hell" - suffered from lackluster writing - and according to the New York Post "Seth Rogen was miscast..."
the film received a number of bad reviews, however as much as i have enjoyed Seth Rogen in other films, i dont think there are very many actors in hollywood that could have saved this one.
If you want to give Seth Rogen a chance, i recommend you take a look at a couple of his flicks entitled
pineapple express and
knocked up.
In the action comedy
pineapple express he playes the role of a casual marijuana using subpoena server. After unwittingly becoming the witness of a murder, a king pin drug dealer kicks off a hilarious search for Rogen.
In the romantic comedy (if you could call it that)
Knocked Up - Rogen playes the role of a stoner who has no ambition in life other than to hang out with his friends, get drunk and occasionally smoke a few joints. An up scale blond meets him in a club one night and this results in a drunken one night stand. Soon the blond - who is Seth Rogens total opposite discovers that she is pregnant and Seth's character struggles to grow into the father role.
he also has a fairly large role as a police officer in the movie
Superbad and plays the comedic lead in the film
Zack and Miri Make a Porno
