Somewhere down the road, sequels will have completely replaced original, stand-alone films and future generations will assume every movie ever made had a numerical suffix. Seeing as that won’t happen for a full six or seven months, it’s worthy to note which movies won’t be getting chapters added on.

The sordid sartorial scandal continues! Pineapple Express actor James Franco told a reporter that the shark-and-kitty T-shirt he sports in the stoner flick was designed by the film's director David Gordon Green, and not a concept ripped-off from the Brooklyn T-shirt company WOWCH. "What? That's ridiculous," Franco. "We completely created that shirt and that shark. David wanted me to wear a purple Monterey Bay T-shirt with a whale on it. I said I wasn't into the whale shirt, so he came up with his own design, which was the shark." Plagiarism is a publicity goldmine, turns out.

Sharp-eyed editors at Gawker may have uncovered a sordid sartorial scandal of epic proportions that involves the wardrobe department who worked on Pineapple Express. Turns out the grimy shark-and-kitten T-shirt design James Franco wears through the movie was originally designed Brooklyn T-shirt maker WOWCH and sold at Urban Outfitters a few years back. Did they get credit? Nope! In fact, in an interview, Franco gives credit to some random T-shirt maker. Now, WOWCH is calling bullshit .

The latest phenomenon to take over the silver screen is not a budding actor or actress. It's just bud. According to Time.com, despite the perenially raging war on drugs, marijuana has been lighting up (pun intended) the screen a lot recently, making frequent appearances in movies and TV shows. Having a TV show (Showtime’s "Weeds") take on its namesake seemed to served as a launching point for pot’s acting career, and the progression to movies was only natural. After being featured in films like The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, pot is now taking on starring rolls (homonym also intended) in the upcoming movies Pineapple Express and The Wackness, both opening this summer. Whether or not you are part of the 6% of Americans who actually smoke it, pot can now be experienced by anyone checking out the latest stock of THC-filled comedies.
