And by “Hittin the Pineapple Express” I don’t mean the cross joint… Possibly the best news ever in the hopes of ever seeing another big adventure hit Variety yesterday when the reported that Judd Apatow would be developing Pee-Wee’s next turn in film.

Pic is described as featuring the iconic geek — known for his love of toys and nerdy catchphrases like “I know you are, but what am I?” — in a road pic built around “a gigantic adventure.”

See that there? A road pic built around “a gigantic adventure.” No tents, No acrobats, just exactly what we all want from another Pee-Wee movie… even if it may be a little redundant. Paul Reubens is writing the script with Paul Rust who variety claims he wrote Inglorious Basterds and I Love You, Beth Cooper, but IMDB says something different! Either way I have no clue who he is and I’m just going to hope for the best because there’s no way Tim Burton’s ever regaining his touch.

In the meantime for those of you who for some reason don’t already know, Pee-Wee will be bringing his stage show over to Broadway for 10 weeks starting in late October. Keep the goodwill train rolling Pee-Wee and stay out of the adult theaters until this movie is shot goddammit! Until then…
