Written and directed by John Hamburg (who wrote both Meet the Parents and the godawful Meet the Fockers), I Love You, Man stars Paul Rudd (ouch!) as Peter Klaven, a guy with no male friends who must find a best man for his wedding.

Peter ends up bonding with a gross-out type played by Jason Segel, which makes it understandably difficult for his fiancée (Rashida Jones) — especially if the guys don’t wear condoms when they’re together. Well, okay, for better or for worse it’s not that kind of bonding.

Anyhow, in the trailer above there are jokes about dog shit and man fart, which makes I Love You, Man a highly likely family-pleasing box-office hit come next spring. Hopefully this movie will be so successful, but so successful, that it will make Paul Rudd so rich, but so rich, that he’ll finally decide to stop appearing in this sort of material and focus his remarkable talents on projects aiming way higher than at the moviegoing public’s lowest-of-the-low common denominator.

Heck, why can’t Rudd star in a Woody Allen comedy? He’d be perfect in the Scarlett Johansson roles. In fact, he might even make Allen’s comedies funny once again.

Also in the I Love You, Man cast: Jaime Pressly, Lou Ferrigno, Jon Favreau.

I Love You, Man opens in the US on March 20, 2009.

    What’s that with all those films about farting and shitting?
    Paul Rudd should be posing naked for playguy instead of appearing in that sort of crap.

    I totally agree. Especially now that he’s lost quite a bit of weight.

    I don’t know about Paul Rudd appearing naked in magazine. Is he in good shape? But I like him in that movie with Jennifer Aniston. He’s good!
