Jonah Hill and Russell Brand..neither one are bankable actors, not even in the comedy realm. Hill is close, but needs the others in his group..especially Apatow..to be a draw.
^^^ This.
Brand is in the same boat as David Beckham and Robbie Williams. Adored in the UK and blown off in the US. I think the producers were thinking this would be a cross-over film for brand and that people would eat it up.
But unlike the Brits, we like our comedians dumb and non-threatening (Drew Carey). So in Get him the greek, Brand is yelling while running down a hotel hall "It's Kubrickian!"
The Brits would LOVE that joke.
Americans wouldn't even realize it's a joke.
Jonah Hex....from just seeing the previews...now THAT's Kubrickian. As in it's just all wrong and weird and you keep looking at your watch waiting for it to end.
