Let me start by saying I'm a Seth Rogen fan.  I think if you liked Superbad, Knocked Up, and Pineapple Express, you'll love it.  If not, I don't know what to tell you. Its basically the same main cast from Pineapple Express with several cameos.  Michael Cera will probably shock you (he was hilarious)

 

It's kind of one of those 'stupid funny' movies with somewhat of an underlying religious (but not THAT religious) theme that plays a factor in the end of the movie. Don't let it scare you away, because it's definitely not preachy or anything.  Personally I laughed until I cried. I thought it was really really funny.

i've heard mixed reviews on this- although I enjoyed all the previous movies you listed to at least some degree; I will probably wait until it comes out on DVD

 

I read a fairly interesting article basically saying that This is the End should/could serve as a metaphor for Seth Rogen to move on from these type of movies

Just got out of the movie. It started out beyond hilarious, but it seemed to taper off more and more towards the end. Still a really funny, laugh out loud kind of movie.

 

Wish they would've had the cameos continue on throughout the movie instead of having them all in the first 20 or so minutes and then leaving it at that.

 

Some of my favorite comedic actors had too small of parts in the movie, not that that's a bad thing that should be changed, but it would've been nice to see more of them. Paul Rudd, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jason Segel, and even Michael Cera, who had a relatively big part, but I like a lot as an actor and probably could've been utilized a bit longer.

its weird, im one of those people that likes pretty much every movie, but this one didn't do it for me. I actually found the internship a lot funnier which is weird because it got way worse reviews. my college won a free screening of "this is the end" in April so i got to see it way earlier which was pretty cool, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride came on campus and signed autographs and stuff as well. I didn't get to see them though :/ the overall movie experience was cool because it was free along with popcorn and drinks, but actually movie was blehhh not bad but definitely not a memorable to me.

Michael Cera was brilliant

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
