Apatocalypse Now: Five Movies to Get You Through the Coming Judd Apatow Drought

Over the past few years, we've been strictly conditioned to expect new Judd Apatow movies — like celebrity DUIs and Ryan Adams albums — to happen once every two or three weeks. But what if we told you there were no more Apatow-produced films being released for the rest of the 2008? It's true! According to IMDB, Pineapple Express is the last one until Year One, which won't be out until NEXT JUNE. Luckily, it's impossible to get a comedy green-lit these days unless it features at least one or two former Freaks and Geeks cast members and a story that casts some portly doofus as the romantic opposite of a gorgeous actress. After the jump, the five fall movies Hollywood hopes can fill the void.
