Superbad

[Catman]

a poor man's American Pie.

Superbad is WAY better than American Pie. The American Pie movies are funny but really dumb at the same time. This movie, however, is smart and pretty honest for the most part.

I thought Knocked Up was funny but after seeing the trailers and clips for Superbad I absolutely can't wait to see the movie. It looks hilarious.

 

[66 Face]

Man... how did Freaks and Geeks only last one year.

Seth Rogen's Vancouver high school misadventures hit the big screen
Superbad movie based on experiences at Point Grey Secondary

Sammy Fogell's most embarrassing high school moments will be brought to life for the world to see when the teen movie Superbad opens in theatres Friday.

The Vancouver real estate analyst doesn't appear in the movie, but screenwriters Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, Fogell's real-life high school friends at Vancouver's Point Grey Secondary School, used their experiences as an inspiration for the movie.

"I thought it was funny," Fogell, 25, told CBC News on Thursday. "I gave them a bit of hell for it, just because I wasn't here to defend myself. Made me the butt of every joke?"

Rogen, who has starred in movies such as Knocked Up, and Goldberg started writing the script when they were in Grade 10, loosely based on their own experiences of trying to buy booze and pick up girls.

The pair decided to keep all their old friends as characters, including Steven Glanzberg, who gets a mention as the school loner.

"In Hollywood, after the premiere, everyone that meets me is like, 'Did you really eat alone in high school?'" Glanzberg told CBC News on Thursday.

"And we're like, 'You Americans just don't get it. These are our friends. We're just having good times,'" Glanzberg said.

Fogell said his on-screen self is far nerdier, but he does remember a story about buying booze with a fake ID.

In a promotional video, Rogen and Goldberg say there's a difference in Fogell and the character that's based on him. There's a strange confidence in him, they said, but people had the sense they wanted to pick on him.

"I hope it doesn't resemble me too much!" Fogel said. "The same with Seth and Evan's characters, [since] they made a lot of fun of themselves … so I think it works."

Rogen submitted his first screenplay, written with Goldberg, to Judd Apatow, who directed the feature films Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin. The producer was impressed and turned the screenplay into Superbad.

Superbad is a coming-of-age cautionary tale about two socially inept teenage boys about to graduate high school.

Man... how did Freaks and Geeks only last one year.

As much as I love Judd Apatow's movies, it really is sad he needed to move from TV to movies to find success, both his TV shows, Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared were as close to perfect TV as you can get.

 

[Dark Donnie]

I heard more F Bombs in this then Scarface...?

You suck. Kill yourself.

This movie kicked ass! Ten out of ten!

 

[Steve Rogers]

Wait a minute? There's a poll to rate this film in this thread and yet this thread is over two months old and the film was released today. Were people supposed to rate the movie before they saw it or did I miss something.

 

[Drizzle]

Someone added the poll today.

 

[Symbiotic]

10. Best comedy I've seen in along time.

 

[Sawyer]

10. And I havent even seen it yet. Michael Cera owns.

 

[The Geek Vault]

10 freakin hilarious! "The interesting thing about my back Jules is... it's on my cock"

you have very bad taste.

also, overreact much?

if you don't like these kinds of comedies, why go on opening day? i highly doubt you even saw the movie. you probably just wanted something to b!tch about.

LOL t: Thats awesome!

 

[Dark Donnie]

Just got back.....I was pretty impressed. It was really really funny. Micheal Cera is amazing in this, he had so many funny parts. Mclovin was funny to, as was Jonah. I loved the scene were Evan had to sing at the party, that and the dance scene with Seth.

What was everyone's favorite penis drawing?? Mine was the Mr T one.

All in all pretty damn funny, i'd give it a 9

 

[Drizzle]

What was everyone's favorite penis drawing?? Mine was the Mr T one.

Mine was the gorilla with the penis banana.

Best lines in the movie?

Becca: I'm so wet.
Evan: Yeah, we learned about that in health class.

Seth: I will be the iron chef of pounding vag!

McLovin: I've got a *****!

 

[Catman]

McLovin: I've got a *****!

McLovin: I got it in!

*cops bust through the door*

lol.

 

[Catman]

At my theater people couldn't stop laughing at this line:

Jules: You scratch our backs, we'll scratch yours.
Seth: Well, funny thing about my back, is it's located on my cock.

 

[Drizzle]

Everyone at my theater cheered when Bill Hader hit the spitting kid in the face with the nightstick.

 

[Lazlo Panaflex]

I didn't like the movie, I was expecting gross-out, raunchy toilet humor like American Pie or Porky's since the trailer led me to believe that. I only laughed when the fat kid talks about how as a kid he spent his early years drawing penises in class.

My audience didn't laugh out loud as well, and the fat kid gets real annoying after he insults the nerdy kid with glasses every time.

Save your money and wait for it on cable.
