All aboard!

It doesn’t pull into the station until August, but the makers of Pineapple Express have decided to give you an early taste of the Seth Rogen/James Franco comedy — if you’re over 18, that is.

The red band trailer for Express is up at the movie’s official site. It isn’t particularly SFW, so if the boss is in earshot, you’ll want to keep the volume low…but you’ll still want to see it. Here’s a synopsis of the film:

Lazy stoner Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) has only one reason to visit his equally lazy dealer Saul Silver (James Franco): to purchase weed, specifically, a rare new strain called Pineapple Express. But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop (Rosie Perez) and the city’s most dangerous drug lord (Gary Cole), he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him. And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they’re not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both. All aboard the Pineapple Express.
