Let's talk about Seth Rogen. Seth Rogen, that lovable chubby guy with the scruffy beard, who basically plays the same character in generally every movie he appears in: Knocked Up, Pineapple Express, Superbad (AWESOME MOVIE), etc etc. Basically, he plays variations of the same character, really, like how some actors get type casted and end up playing one kind of character throughout their careers.

I didn't know much about him, really, except that I'd seen him in a few movies -- I didn't even know his name until after planning to sit down and write this. I wouldn't be writing about him if I hadn't discovered something that was personally exciting to me.

Let's also talk about Donnie Darko.

Donnie Darko is one of my favorite movies. I had to watch it four times before I understood it. I still don't quite understand it. But it has a great cast: Patrick Swayze, Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal (in a movie! Together!), Jena Malone, Drew Barrymore (Yay!).

It also has Seth Rgoen. Well, yeah, I didn't know it either until I watched it a few weeks ago and realized it was him. He unfortunately plays an idiot called Ricky in this movie, and one his of few lines are, "I like your boobs." Definitely got a few screws loose.

The thing that gets me is that he looks exactly the same.

Like he hasn't aged at all!

Amazing!


He is twenty-seven now and since Donnie Darko came out in 2001, he was probably around nineteen here. It's kind of crazy, since I thought he might be younger than twenty-seven.

Did you know that? Yeah, probably.
