'The Sitter' Red Band Trailer: Jonah Hill Disses


First Posted: 08/04/11 08:08 PM ET Updated: 10/04/11 06:12 AM ET

Kids say the darndest things. Jonah Hill says the dirtiest.

The "Superbad" star takes the lead in the new R-rated raunch fest comedy, "The Sitter," in which he plays a grown man reduced to babysitting to make a living. And as he says in the trailer, he's not one of those fun and games babysitters -- he's more of a tell the kids to shut the hell up and sit and watch television.

As a bonus, Hill introduces the trailer by talking to a nice, diverse group of kids who question his gender, whether or not he's an as*hole and his right to make money as a movie star.

In a summer of R-rated comedies, from "The Hangover" and "Bridesmaids" to "The Change-Up," and "Horrible Bosses," this may rank as the wildest, given its interaction with little kids.

Interestingly, Hill will take a major turn toward drama after this film, starring as a stat guru in the Brad Pitt-led baseball film, "Moneyball," and then he'll go cop, first with Channing Tatum in "21 Jump Street" and then with Mark Wahlberg in "The Good Time Gang."

What a wonderful way to teach childern that it's ok to curse.

You'll notice he only says curses in close-up. He was alone in the room when he said those lines, they edited it together after shooting two sequences.

Good for Jonah hill. He will have a happier healthier and hopefully long life. He was funny as an overweight guy, but has the talent to shed that image and go on. Good for him.

He Does. He's not that funny now that he's not big. The roundness is part of his character, a part that is now gone, for now lol.

He looks almost sick or addicted to pain pills or something looking that thin. Look at him. Skin all pasty and yellow, eyes red, exhausted. I don't know him though, so I don't know, I just know I won't laugh at him anymore probably because it can't be funny if he's not fat.

Evidence : Gabriel Iglesias If you think he's funny now, imagine if he weighed 170.

I can't believe the naivety of some you folks. I read the headline and knew EXACTLY what was going on.

Jesus folks, stop blaming HP for duping you when it's so easily done!

OK I was afraid he got caught in some tirade in public. Thankfully it's all an act. Though before shooting it I'm sure someone had to explain to those kids what the language meant--and possibly what it really would mean if dad was hugging his best friend.:P

Jonah was absolutely brilliant in the move Cyrus with Marisa Tomei and John Reilly. No matter where his weight is, he will be successful. However, he will live longer and be healthier if he maintains a more normal weight.

To HuffPo: Stop the misleading, sensationalized story captions. It is not okay.

Made you look, didn't they? I knew exactly what to expect and if you knew anything about him, like he's a comedic actor, you would have too.

It's called schtick.

Why do some heavy people look so freaking scary and unhealthy when the drop a lot of weight? I know part of it has to do with what we're used to seeing them as..but if I'd never seen Jonah Hill in my life he would still look ill right now. I think some people might just be a naturally heavy type and they need to keep it from getting out of hand, rather than trying to turn themselves into Brad Pitt.

Geez, HP, your headlines need some improvement. I'm glad you lost weight, Jonah, but I think that was part of your comedic routine.

When i was teaching 5th graders at the Val Verde School District they always promised never to swear if Mr leonard could hear them because they knew that i did not like bad language. If only adults were as thoughtful.

"Jonah Hill Shouts Wildly Inappropriate Curse Words At Little Kids"

I hate you so much, HP. It's Jonah Hill's character, not Jonah Hill. When I first clicked the link I thought Hill had gone on a tirade in public, but it's just a film.

Fail, HP. Big fail. No surprise.
08:50 AM on 08/07/2011
I couldn't agree more. I thought the same thing. What is going on with the headlines here? Most of them are so misleading. I wonder how many people just skim the headlines and don't read the articles. Doing this has to generate so many rumors and false information from these people.

Indeed, and HP is unaware of its badness, so no corrective measures are possible.

It's like their ME and EE are undergraduates just trying to do their best--and missing every detail along the way.

I will see it. Looks funny. Im glad he lost weight. Be healthier is better and life longevity, also skinny is better than fat and out of shape.
