1987 Dating Video - Neatorama

This completely hilarious montage of circa 1987 video dater men was featured on Boing Boing yesterday, and as one commenter mentioned, the guy at 3:34 was a dead ringer for Seth Green. Upon second viewing, I noticed that the guy at 2:27 looks and sounds like Seth Rogen.

That got me thinking. Is the Seth Green guy really Seth Green, filmed recently? Slipped into a montage of real 87 vid-daters? And if that is Seth Rogen, is it also current footage with makeup, because if it was really him he'd be about 5 years old in 1987. It seems odd that two Seths appear in one seemingly random new (old) funny video.

Anyway, aside from that, there's lots of funny to be found in this new viral gem. Hard to pick a favorite, but the Goddess guy/ Bon Jovi afficionado is impressive.

Nope. But I can see the resemblance.

Can't see the Seth Rogen guy, but saw the Seth Green guy. Not him, but they could be brothers or something :)
Bon jovi guy was definitely a heart breaker, but my favorite has GOT to be the Viking dude.

Will do an update on the Mystery Sale soon. We've been shipping out stuff for two weeks solid :)

disagree with Seth Rogan, Seth Green is possible, and at 3:44 the viking could be Seann William Scott.

Saw no one that looked like Seth Rogen. Seth Green only bears a very minor resemblance.

Wow I am so proud of myself. I made it through the entire video. Somebody out there tell me please: what is a Donna Wanneeteer? I feel so stupid. THANKS dj

What about Kevin Pollak at 3:27?

What is a Donna Waneeteerrr? I was asleep during most of the 80's so I don't have a clue. Fill me in. Thanks

Wow... that was so painfully awkward.
I love how picky some of them are though.. as if they have a lot of options or something :P

DONNA JUANITA is an Italian opera about a man who disguises himself as a woman. So I think that guy was using an obscure literary reference to say "no trannies".

the guy at 0:40 is DEFINITELY seth green. just a matter of time until the truth is revealed, i'd guess..

I can see the Seth Rogan guy - but the chin is wrong. And the Seth Green guy's face and nose are to wide.

Wow - just wow. I wonder where those guys are now.
Wonder if Bon Jovi guy found his goddess?

The Bon Jovi guy sounds like Gary Busey

Donna Juanita would be the female version of a Don Juan, a womanizer. So, he's definitely not looking for someone who is going to be playing around.

Hmm, well I was about to close it and say "nah" at about 3 minutes but then I saw the Seth Green guy for the second time. Didn't see Seth Rogen at all, but I thought I saw Rob Lowe. All the other guys seemed pretty genuine. I think maybe Seth Green found the old video and added himself in (and maybe Rob Lowe lol).

3:27 Robert De Niro ... he even has the mole

Oh wow, I went back to 2:27 and that dude looks NOTHING like Seth Rogen. He is, however, giving Bill Hicks a run for his money.

Viking guy at 3:45 looks like Sean William Scott, especially the mouth...his dad maybe??

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

Yeah, the guy who looks like Seth Rogan looks nothing like Seth Rogan. The guy who looks like Seth Green does look like Seth Green, but it's not Seth Green.

Anyone else think the guy who says 'domestic violence' at 3:12 looks like this guy: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1496683520/nm0005405 but with David Hasselhoff hair?

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

Um, Johnny Cat, have you ever seen a picture of Seth Rogen?

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

I really think it is Seth Green, he looks just like him. Anyone else, nah. Definitely not Seth Rogen. Damnit, now I want to know!

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

The thing about my thinking that's Rogen was mostly in fun (cause I like to have fun), but it did stem from the effect cast by Green's doppelganger there. I think goodbye_ohio's observation concerning random guy at 0:40 is interesting, too.

Fine, it's not Seth Rogen. But it's fun!

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

I don't know about the times you provided but at second 39 the guy that comes on for a split second and says "I'm Aton" is definitely Seth Green.

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

Holy crap. Were there any women desperate enough to date these guys? Good thing the 80's are over! (I refuse to acknowledge there might be men still out there this pathetic)

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

Am I the only one who thinks this is not funny?
If anything it's sad. Like it is sad how this is supposed to be entertainment these days.

Omg! Grinch!

The guy at 2:16 reminds me of Ronnie Dobbs (David Cross) in Run Ronnie Run. lol.

No. It's my brother, Seth Rogen-Green. He's married to my good friend Holly. It's just a joke cuz they look so much alike. Caveman, you're such a caveman.

Thanks JohnQ...wow, that was fast. A 5-color print of some random dude from the 1987 dating video for 29.95?

How timely!

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

That's okay, Johnny Cat, you're like most men - always thinking about Seths.

00:56 Ben Stiller?

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

00:39 THAT'S Seth Green with beard and glasses!

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)
