Producer of some of the (so-far) defining films of my generation, Judd Apatow is perhaps one of the most influential and far-reaching members of today’s film industry. His films include the 2004 sensation Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, and subsequent hits The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Superbad, Step Brothers, Pineapple Express, Funny People, and 2010′s Get Him to the Greek.
So without further adieu, here are my Top 10 scenes from Judd Apatow flicks. This is of course a subjective list – everyone will have their own opinions and I welcome those in the comments section!
