What's everybody? Welcome back to the Crown Cinema
podcast. In this episode we are breaking
down and. Literally just watched Superbad.
Yeah, I'm happy to be doing this one.
Blastic. Just, I mean God, literally just
just for guys like us, this is such a this, this, this should
go smoothly. It's just, yeah, like literally
it's our childhood. The whole movie is basically our
childhood. I I love that it came out in
2007, but it's just so like timeless, just this is how this
is how everybody talked in high school yes, this is how
everybody talked in high school. That's.
What makes this movie so funny is that they're talking like
that, but out loud in public, not giving a fuck about anybody.
Like that's something. That's why it's so funny,
because they're just cussing, talking about insane things just
out in public without any regard for who's listening to them.
It's hilarious. But that's just, that's how I
remember it going. That's exactly how I remember it
going trying. To figure out how you're going
to get drunk. Just, I mean, no, just like
being the dickhead kid with my boys, not caring about what was
happening in the outside world. Like, yeah, we were just
talking. They said they made this movie
because none of the high school movies that they watched related
to their childhood. No, I guess like the first
relatable. Oh, I live this life.
I know what this is. This is the first movie like
that. Now they all kind of do this
because it was so good. Yeah.
But yeah, it's just, it's extremely relatable.
That's how they wrote it. They wrote it based on their
childhood. Yeah, I think, I mean, what was
that like the whole point is that it's based on Seth Rogen
and Evan. Evan Goldberg.
Goldberg, yeah. Like they were just writing it
as they were going through high school.
They were 13 when they started to write it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So like, and then they just had
it. They just had this goldmine.
Yeah. And then obviously, like Seth
Rogen, like his career kind of starts to take off.
I mean, he starts like I know one of his early roles, acting
wise, like he was in Freaks and Geeks.
Four year virgin. Yeah, then yeah, that was like a
bigger role, you know, starring alongside Steve Carell, Paul
Rudd, like all those guys. I mean, that was that's a big
role. That was a huge comedy.
Dude I saw that movie late and I'm like how have?
I4 year old virgin. I saw it probably.
I think I might have been either early college, like late high
school, maybe early college. I was like, how have I never
seen this movie? Yeah, well, it's.
Hilarious. And it's just so funny because
like I, I think maybe I'm wrong, but not that wrong.
Like so 4 year old version came out because it was like
Hollywood trying to make Steve Carell a lead man.
You know, they were doing their best.
And so like they did 4 year old virgin.
He was in Anchorman. You know he's the main character
and that. Still not not yeah main cast
member, but not like the they. They were like trying to get him
to be like lead man of, of movies and then like, they were
just some that kind of flopped like I I think he was.
It's called Evan Almighty. Oh I love that guy as a kid.
Flopped it? Really.
Oh, so bad I was. A child didn't flop for me.
I saw any. I've seen him like 10 times.
Yeah, yeah. Like I remember seeing him as a
kid too. Well, this is.
Great. No Bruce Almighty I've seen 10
times. Is that Jim?
That's the OG. Is that Jim Carrey?
Yes. OK, I've watched that one a lot.
Even almighty, I watched maybe 2 times.
Yeah, that's. He's Noah.
Yeah.
He's like trying to get
everybody out of Arc. Yeah.
So anyways, but like, yeah, he was trying to be a lead man.
Just didn't work. Then it like kind of took a
break. Then Steve Carell did crazy,
stupid love. So then like he ended up getting
like a bigger career. But what are we talking about?
We're definitely talking about Seth Rogen.
You know, we talked about how amazing Steve Carell.
Yeah, well, they like we. Were talking about 40 over
virgin. Well, I mentioned that one
because 40 over Virgin. That's when they they were like
their first big hit that Seth Rogen had.
That was like the crude humor that they have this like absurd,
like nasty, you know, how guys talk, how guys, how they really
talk. And that became the mainstream
comedy. And so like they just rode that
wave perfectly with, you know, starting off with 40 over virgin
and then add some more in the Super bad.
It all rolled in. Perfectly.
And it's, you know, it's just, it's really funny to watch like
kind of there is a certain mirror between like 4 Year old
Virgin and Superbad because Seth Rogen in Four Year Old Virgin is
talking exactly how Jonah Hill's character is talking in
Superbad. Yeah, which Jonah Hill's
character in Superbad is based on how Seth Rogen actually
talks. Yes, Seth Rogen, how he talked
in high school. Yeah, I mean he wanted the whole
they wrote it. I mean the name.
The characters names were Seth and Evan.
Yes, the two writers literally about that, yes.
Yeah, and Fogel is based on a real character, like one of
their buddies. I would imagine it's based on
who also makes a cameo in this in this film.
Yeah, like. His name is Martin Starr, who
also acted in Freaks and. Geeks.
No, but I'm saying Fogle was a real guy.
Though his name is actually Fogle.
They had a friend named Fogle and he was like that guy.
And actually, there's a funny clip of the guy that plays
Fogle, Christopher Mintz Plase. Yeah.
He met Fogle. Fogle was on set and he like,
got to like, kind of be around him to kind of see, you know
what he's like. And the guy's so awkward, like,
it's hilarious. Like it's literally Fogle.
Yeah, my apologies to throwing Martin Starr under the bus
there. He's look bottom right.
Oh yeah, Yeah. So he was in Freaks and Geeks,
but then you would also recognize him from, he's like
the teacher in the Spider Man movies with Tom Holland.
That's right. He's really funny and he like,
he just, he's, he's in Hollywood, he's involved.
Like I would imagine he's probably more of like a writer.
Oh, you know what? He was also.
Oh my gosh, Jared the subway guy is Jared Fogle.
Stop. Not that, not this character
just but his name. Actually happens to be Fogle.
He even kind of looks like him. He's got the glasses.
Not he can't find it. I saw it was a behind the scenes
clip anyway. Well, does he have anything
like, I guess he doesn't have any like Hollywood credits.
He just happened to be their buddy.
Yes. Yeah, she's.
Hilarious. But like, they're in an
interview and, you know, Christopher's sure, he's like
that awkward guy, but he's still an actor, so he's not super shy.
So he's like, yeah, I got the real football here.
And he's like, they're talking and he's like guys like, Yep.
He's like, there's so much there's they share a girlfriend,
like just, you know, having fun. Like they're the same guy.
They live together, they sleep together, but yes, it's
literally focal. Like they literally made this
movie based on their entire track.
OK, so I want to look this up because I'm not sure.
So it was based on them. Then they obviously get to
Hollywood. They finally like have enough
money and power to make the script that they have this super
bad script, but they they can't act in it themselves.
Are the cops? Have the cops always been in the
script? They were.
So that just worked out perfectly.
That like Seth and Bill Hader, who big Bill Hader fan over
here. This guy is just a genius.
OK, So it did just work out there.
Like, OK, we can't like, like me, Seth.
I can't play Seth in this. I'm clearly too old.
Yeah, yeah, but at least I get to be a cop.
Yeah, he, like he said, he selfishly put himself in the
movie because he just wanted to be in it.
Oh yeah, Which? I mean, come.
On if I had finally gotten a script greenlit that I wrote
when I was 13 and I've already established myself as a comedic
actor. Yeah, dude, I'm going to go get
the paycheck, Go get the fame. Like, is this set him up for
success? I mean Pineapple Express came
out after this like Seth Rogen went on a tear like in this
time. But it wasn't them that got the
movie made. It was Judd Apatow.
OK, who's behind the scenes of a lot of great comedy movies?
Yeah, well, and he kept like he kind of kept Seth Rogen like in
this little gang too, like, because he did Knocked Up.
Yeah. And like this is 40, which is
like kind of a spin off of Knocked Up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, so Judd, cause Seth Rogen
and Evan Goldberg, they're both they're like, this movie's never
going to made me love it. And it was kind of popular
within write like comedy writers and the studios, like they said,
this is my favorite movie that hasn't been made yet or my
favorite script, I guess has never been made yet.
But nobody ever really pushed for it.
Then Joe Wood Apatow was like, I think we should make this.
It's gold. And then they got a one.
They got a director to sign on who had read it.
He's like, hey, do you remember Superbad?
He's like, oh, yeah, I love that.
I love that script. It's like, OK, you want to make
it. He's like, I mean, I guess like,
sweet, you're on. And then I hung up the phone and
then like, that's how they got it made.
And we got you. Got you.
I love it. And then, yeah, Judd Apatow or
Apatow. Yeah, Noctow, this is 4040 year
old virgin. Yeah, and well, and then he's
married to Leslie Mann, who, you know who that is?
She's literally, this is 40. Yeah.
Then they have a daughter who's
like a main character in that Euphoria show.
Oh, which is like the exact opposite of super bad.
Yeah, that is super bad, Yeah. Yeah, wow, that like literally
the opposite of Superbad. Yeah.
Superbad. I don't know, like they.
Should be switched. The title should be switched.
Honestly. This is euphoria.
This is. Euphoria that's so funny.
Yeah, 'cause Superbad like no matter how bad or fucked up
things get, like because they're in the comedy web, you know that
it's going to be OK. Euphoria.
Like dude kids are dying at these parties.
Yeah, you actually want Jonah Hill to be hit by a car.
Yeah, 'cause then, you know, like, oh, that's just going to
make the plot better. We need like a, we need like a
fall count for Jonah Hill. We throw at least five times.
He I mean. That's not like a good fall from
Jonah Hill. He's a chuckle every time he.
Cracks me up because like while we were watching the movie, like
at one point it just like does a cut, like kind of just they just
throw this scene in there while the music rolls and it's just
him running and it doesn't push the script at all.
Except the show that like Jonah Hill does a really funny run.
And then just like kind of shows like he's out of shape,
whatever. But like you see Jonah Hill do
some pretty athletic things in this film.
You see him the first real. It's funny because he whenever
they're like talking about this mom that got a boob reduction
and he's like, OK, let's go check it out.
He hits like an actual good Sprint, right, right.
It's like really athletic looking.
It's for the right motivation. That's what he needs, the right
motivation. And then obviously, like,
achieves an incredible athletic feat, picking up his friend's
dead body weight, Evan, and then carrying him for miles.
Who knows how long? Yeah, so like, he's actually a
pretty athletic dude. He's in.
The cops for a long time. Yeah, he just chooses to like
kind of live in that little loser mindset that he's got
because like, I don't know, I think he deep down he is lazy.
That's also that's so like Jonah Hill being cast for this is
perfect. Yep, they they didn't have him
in mind at all. Like you, I think I I think I
knew that, but then they did 4 year old virgin.
Well, no, the Oh yeah, they did. He's 4 year old version.
He's the one that walks into the the eBay store and he like plays
the complete opposite of this character.
He plays like a very shy Jonah Hill was like very overweight to
at that point. He just, he was a funny looking
dude, you know, let's call it what it is, Let's call it what
it is. And he walks in and he's like, I
like these shoes and I would like to buy them.
Yeah. And she's like, oh, well, you
know, I, I wish that's how it worked.
And he was like, it could it could work like that, Like I
want to buy these now and I have cash to pay.
She's like, unfortunately that's not how it works.
He's like, oh, all right, that doesn't make any sense.
But then I would think that that's like how they would be
introduced. Well, they knew.
They knew Jonah Hill and they liked him, but they thought he
looked too old. He's like he can't play a high
school kid because they said knowing him and talking to him,
he seems older than he is. Anyway I.
Guess there's flashes of that in this film.
Like they, yeah, they say like his maturity is a smart guy.
You know, we obviously know now in real life, like we don't know
his, you know, when he directs the movie, it's going to be
cool. I mean like mid 90s, which is a
cool RC movie, you know what I mean?
So. He's had an insane career, which
we'll get to that. So knowing him like he can't
play a high school kid, he's too, he looks way too old.
He's just too old of a guy. But then starting to like, he
auditioned. You're like, oh, this is
perfect. What are we thinking?
How could we not have picked Jonah Hill?
Because I've seen like, there's the video of him in a trailer.
Yeah, yeah. Like I think it's all set up
knocked up. Was oh, is that what it was?
Yeah. OK, that makes a lot of sense.
So Knocked Up came before this. Yeah, right before.
Oh, that's crazy. Knocked up 2007.
OK. So like roughly same time, but
maybe like, yeah, OK, that's crazy.
Is it the man? The turn around on the comedy is
not too long because you don't take visual effects.
The shorter, Yeah, you know. Yeah, no, that's but that's so
awesome. Yeah.
So that just means like, because I know and knocked up Seth
Rogen, like just got all of his boys that he was living with at
the time to like be in the movie, which it was.
It was Jonah. And then, Oh my Lord, what is?
Look up the guy from How I Met Your Mother.
You know who I'm talking about. Patrick.
No, no, no, no, no. Jason Segel, yes, so Jason
Segel, by the way, is in a freaking phenomenal movie coming
out over your dead body. Nice shout out.
Yeah, Lonely Island is in the mind.
His name slipped my mind something to.
He's funny, yes, but they were living together and he was in,
he was in Knocked Up because I said just got all of his boys.
In it Yorma Taccone nice. He directed this movie called
over your dead body and it's freaking hilarious.
We watched it South by Southwest as at at the premiere and bro,
that's a freaking good movie. So just shout out y'all should
definitely. Talk comedy movies might be
coming back is what I'm hearing. I think they are.
Because you saw that and then you also saw the other one at
Paramount, Mike and. Mike and Nick and Nick and
Alice, That wasn't at Paramount, That was Over Your dead bodies
at Paramount. There's a premiere.
Gotcha. We watched that one Like there's
like the last screening they had.
But Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice, That's Vince Vaughn,
right? Coming on Hulu.
Is it funny? It's good.
It's. Good.
We might be back to it. It's good, might be back to it.
Shane Gillis has tires coming out.
Tires is funny like. Theo Von's got a movie coming
out I. Saw I saw the trailer for that,
that looks good. Might be on or something.
Oh I mean this episode is sponsored by Lock Lab, the hair
growth supplement that's taken me from this to this.
It's been a complete game changer for me.
I mean, it's undeniable. Lock Lab's a great product.
It's worked incredibly well for Grey, so much so that since he's
gotten hair, he's become a different person.
Every time I take a shower, my conditioner's empty.
It's Gray. He says he needs it.
Gray has his own bathroom. Despite it being extremely
affordable, he can't even pay right on time.
Try next month pal. And what about all this stuff?
How'd you pay for that look? These are my essentials.
This is what it takes to manage all of this.
You don't even have them much hair, please.
Kate, take that energy somewhere else.
I'm kind of in the middle of something.
If only Lock Lab didn't produce amazing results.
I'm going to use your. Shower water, don't use my
conditioner. Right, I said don't use my
conditioner. What, you don't need that much
conditioner water coming out of the shower That is not the
shower. Go to lock lab 1 pill a day.
That's 97% effective in stopping hair loss.
If you want your main bag, go to locklab.co.
I did look at me now that Jonah Hill who like was just
hilarious. I mean, he was funny, but he has
stepped away from that. He's getting jacked and hot tan.
He's got frosted tips. He's got frosted tips added up.
Yeah. And like, 'cause like, obviously
super bad. Like, that's how I think of him
first. But.
And then he makes the jump into Wolf of Wall Street.
Then he does like, still a somewhat comedic role.
It's funny. We talked about this on what
movie is that? Oh my God.
With Miles Taylor. No, with Miles Taylor.
War dogs. War dogs.
So I said this about war dogs. I'm honestly going to say it
again. Jonah Hill in War Dogs
essentially plays Eric Cartman. Yes, pretty much does the same.
Thing in super bad in a live action South Park where Jonah
Hill is Cartman well we can't anymore but.
We can't anymore. But if somebody had decided to
do a live action South Park, it would have been Jonah Hill.
It would have been like literally written for Jonah
Hill. Perfect character, Yeah, because
like. He is literally Eric Cartman in
this film. Yeah.
I mean, just the whole I really, I'm thinking about like
obviously he's like talking all the shit about like porn,
whatever. It's Eric Carman growing up is
what it is. Yes, Eric Carman.
In high school. Yeah, Eric Carman in high
school, like him getting pissed off at Evan for leaving him and
going to a better college. Yes.
He's like you're you Benedict Donald.
Fuck. Yeah.
Like literally just say stuff like that.
Like that is what Eric Cartman does.
Yes, truly. It's so funny you're leaving me
and Michael. Michael Cera was like a sleeper
actor that they hired because he elevated the script, because the
original idea was a good They would have one funny friend and
then one more straight character that kind of lead the story and
be just, you know, the normal guy to have the humor next to
him. Yeah, but Michael Sayer, reading
the lines, he's just so funny. So they're like, well, this is
perfect. Now the script's elevated
because now we have everybody in the movies funny.
There's not one not funny character.
And it's not even because like he is the normal character in
this film. Like, you know, in in comedy,
like you have to have like the one reasonable person, but he's
in high school. He's a high school kid and he's
friends with this Seth guy. And that honestly just has to
mean like, OK, like there's got to be something a little off
with him. And what Michael Cayer's
character, like his little weaknesses is that he's just
he's a little socially awkward. It's not even like crippling.
Like you see him interacting with plenty of people to know
that like, it's not terrible. He's just got like a little, you
know, just like he's like just a little nerdy.
Yes, there's a little nerdy. Like he's very reasonable.
He's smart, like respectful of like people and his
surroundings. He's constantly telling Seth
like that's fucked up. You can't say that, you know,
because it's like you really you should not say stuff like that.
But he's also he is funny. He's kind of charismatic.
And I'm thinking about like in the lab, whenever he's whenever
Seth is pissed off that he's having to work alone.
Yeah. Yeah.
But Evan has a partner. And then it cuts to Evan like
playing with the like a. Couple.
He's yeah, he's like being funny with the, with his other
partner. Yeah.
And it's just stuff like that where it's like, OK, this guy
like clearly has friends, like does well, you know, so but
dude, it it's kind of painful how realistic the conversations
go between like the guys and girls in this movie.
Yes. And it's not so much it's funny,
because they always are the most painful in the hallways.
Because don't you remember that in high school?
Always the worst. Place always are the worst
people. Everybody's listening to you.
That's what you think? Yeah, there's that.
And it's just like, dude, I, it didn't matter.
It didn't matter who I saw in the hallways of high school.
It was always just the, like, the whole, you see them at the
very far end. You clearly see that you have
just this long walk until you get to each other.
And then it's just the fact like, oh, that we have to say
something to each other. Yeah.
And so that could happen with, like, your best boy and you're
like, fuck. Or it could happen to somebody
like you're kind of friends with fuck.
But when you saw your crush walking down those hallways, bad
news. Bad news.
Now that's exactly the boys. Is fine.
This is a quick pass. What's up?
And you keep both. You are on the same mindset.
See what's up? You can pass them.
It's the girls. You're like fuck, fuck, fuck.
What do I say? What do I say?
Especially like girl you're talking to girl you've been
texting for like a whole weekend.
Unless. And then it now it's time that
you're just having to see her. Unless you're leaving class
together, then it works. That's easy.
That's easy because then you just get to talk about how
stupid that class was. Yeah, you know.
High school I had a buddy of mine where for all of our four
years of high school we had every single class together.
Like me and him walk to class every single day.
Seth and Evan. Yeah, we were Seth and Evan,
basically. Like literally, we check our
schedules, got the same one again, Let's go.
Kind of wild. Damn, dude, I'm going to cry.
It was sweet. Yeah, he's, if he's listening,
he's crying right now. Never, never had a lonely lunch.
Lunch was stressful the first day of school lunch.
Like, fuck it was. He's in lunch.
Yeah. 'Cause you, you have to like
establish the table that you have to establish the table.
Who gets to sit at this table, Like, and the mistakes, Yeah.
Then, yeah. Then like whenever, whenever you
switch up on your lunch people, oh, sometimes, sometimes you get
up. I'm thinking like if you're
talking to a girl that doesn't sit at your regular lunch, then
maybe you like start to get a little serious with her.
So then you got to either bring her or go to her.
And for me, I was like, I don't want anybody around.
What is being talked about this Seth and Evan conversations that
are happening? At lunch they always have like
the boys table or like maybe some of the girls that y'all
like to hang out with that are cool.
That'll joke with you, right? So you have like that your
established table. But one of my buddies, he
started dating a girl who had their little girls table over
here. So we used to just be at the
table having the blast looking at him.
And I have a video of this. He's sitting at the girls table
with his girlfriend. He's just staring down like
playing with this water bottle like often their girl
conversation. Like dude that sucks bro that
sucks. Friend sounds like a pussy.
And then Fogle, his name is Christopher Mince Plaza.
I think you say it like that. Damn, son, where'd you find
this? Did you ever see that video?
I love that that fooled everybody.
I know everybody thought everybody thought that he
actually had that in him. Yes like people like for years
would be like dude, did you know that Mclovin also like does have
voice? I was like you, idiot.
No, he doesn't. But casting Fogle, they could
not find somebody like they were.
It was impossible to find a Fogle.
Like they're like, who's going to play him?
Nobody's nobody's who we're thinking of that can play this
kind of funny, awkward guy. And then this guy rolls in.
First ever audition ever been in a movie before Rolls in and he
did the audition. He they left and they said they
Judd Apatow, Seth Rogen and Heaven, we're all like jumping
up, hugging each other like, yes, we got the guy.
We got the guy and he did so good that Jonah Hill wanted them
to like, we don't don't cast that guy.
Jonah Hill was pissed because in the audition they wanted some
banter between Jonah Hill and whoever's going to play Fogel.
And so, you know, Christopher was like, well, let me, you
know, like we're in high school. So like, let me just he's going
to roast me. Let me roast him back.
Like we just going to have that play.
But he said he he was roasting Jonah Hill so much that Jonah
Hill like, started to get mad actually.
And he's like, don't fucking cast that guy.
No way. And Jed?
Apatow was like, we have to because y'all's tension is so
funny. Like reading the lines you are
saying and like actually kind of being mad at each other is
hilarious. And so you can kind of see like
you do see it. He's like he's getting Jonah.
Hill, Jonah Hill let some certain dramatic acting come out
in his scenes that he's screaming at Fogle, right?
So you can kind of see that tension there.
I mean, obviously, they like each other.
Filming it was fine. But, you know, bringing back
that emotion, like, fuck this guy.
Yeah. And also, you got to think about
it. Jonah Hill's been established as
an actor. He's a comedy actor.
He's a name, this kid, 17. And also he was 17 years old
when he filmed it. Fogle But yeah, Christopher was
17 years old. Jonah Hill was the oldest at 23
and Michael Cera was 18. OK.
Because Michael Cera, he's established he'd been on
Arrested Development. Yeah.
Like, and he already established
himself as like, a pretty awkward playing character.
Yes. So I did work out.
Perfectly so. Jonah Hill was like, this guy's
crushing it. He's new and I'm established.
He's making me look bad. Like get this fucking kid out of
here. That's why he was mad about it,
apparently. Dude, that's funny because like
they gave, they gave him shit for like being all Hollywood and
stuff like in that, that James Franco roast.
They were like making fun of him for like I like being to
Hollywood and stuff. But they were like kind of
poking fun at like how he's got like this ego problem.
Jonah Hill. Yeah, dude.
And like, I'm just based on how things are going right now.
Like Jonah Hill was very open about the fact that he was
annoyed with being cast as like the fat dude with the Jufro.
He was like, very upset about it.
And there's moments, too, that I do feel bad for Jonah Hill.
There's like an interview that he does with Brad Pitt for
Moneyball, which that was another good job on Jonah Hill.
But Brad Pitt like makes this comment.
I don't think he was thinking anything of it.
It just fucking it's one of those things where it like comes
out and like, if you're Jonah Hill, it's like, I obviously
that makes sense that you got your feelings hurt.
But Brad Pitt just says something about like, you know,
kind of poking fun at Jonah Hill for like just being like a
comedy actor, not like a real actor.
Like Jonah Hill just sit there and like couldn't even hide it
that he was like, I kind of hurt.
Damn, kind of stung. You know, it was just stuff like
that. But Jonah Hill has done really
good dramatic roles. And I'm thinking like he did a
show. Could you could we look this up?
Because I think it was with, it might be with Emma Stone.
I could be completely. Wrong.
Emma Stone's first ever movie. By the way, which is Yeah.
Then she ended up having a crazy career.
Look at him. Look at Mr. Hollywood I.
Know, I know. What is that hair?
Bro, do you think that shirt's pretty insane though?
That's the most zempic right there.
Yeah, but. He, Jonah Hill, was in the show
that I saw in college, and I feel like nobody talked about
it. You watch you people?
Yeah, terrible. Anyway.
Not yet. Damn dude, where is this?
This did say movie, so it might be.
OK, yeah, go look up. He did a he did a drama TV show.
Maniac. Yes.
Who else was in that? Emma Stone.
So it's crazy.
They kind of had almost the same career.
Gabriel Byrne from Unusual Suspects.
Oh yeah, there he is. Yeah.
So think about this. Jonah Hill does super bad.
And then it's also Emma Stone's first movie.
She ends up, I mean, 'cause she kills it in this movie.
She like plays the perfect like cute, but also like down to
earth cool girl. Like she is really good at that.
I would actually imagine that's probably just how Emma Stone is
in their life because everybody loves to work with her.
She's like very talented. But anyways, so she does that.
Then she does like other funny movies.
She does like easy a, which I've seen it once.
I I don't even think I really remember it.
Like I remember liking it. She did a good job in it.
ANYWAYS, they kind of have like these comedy roles, you know,
just going on for a little bit. Emma Stone ends up being fucking
in Spider man, you know, but then her and Jonah Hill link
back up for like a very this that TV show.
I would recommend it what's called Maniac.
Yeah, maniac. I saw I think my sophomore year
of college and blew me away. It is insanely good.
So I want to shout that out. But it's cool that they
reconnected and played like, very, very like, messed up
roles. And then she has obviously, Emma
Stone has obviously gone on to do some very, very weird
dramatic roles. She's had a cool career.
Then she also, like, pops out with, like, crazy stupid love.
Yeah, Yeah. Where she plays the same cool
character. I love that movie.
That movie is so good. The great movie.
That movie is so. Good.
I love Ryan Gosling. We're going to we're.
I do. I really do.
We need to do crazy stupid love as well, like 'cause that's like
a good movie in a in a time where I feel like people were
kind of giving up on ROM coms, that movie popped out and it was
like, oh fuck yeah, this is so good.
Yeah, such a good film. I this is going to be a bad
recalling of this, but on the Rewatchables, I think it was
rewatchable. They're talking about crazy,
stupid love and they had a girl host on it.
You know, three people with the girl host and she was like
defending Ryan Gosling saying like, he's not doing what like
most guys do to get women, Like he's he's more respectable
somehow. And then they start talking
about it and they start bringing up the fact that he's doing what
exactly what she was saying. They're like, he got your ass.
Like he freaking got you his charm.
Got your ass. Yeah, because what he.
Does I mean, I guess he like tries to play the respectful
thing where he's like, tell me about yourself and then they do
and he's like, no, that's boring.
Yeah, It's like he's he's control, he's manipulating.
Yes, that's funny. And they.
Oh, it got. Her, Yeah, like she was like
defending him. Like, no, he does it better.
And like, Nope, he's doing it. And it worked on you.
It's just kind of a funny story. It was funny.
So Michael Cera, like you're saying, kind of being the
awkward guy, he got so famous after this movie that he started
a he started a want to quit making movies.
Like he didn't want any more jobs.
He's got 2 famous that like was uncomfortable for him.
He said it was cool, like it gave me access and like I got to
meet cool people. But there's also like weird
energy to it. Like I couldn't handle it at the
time. Like I was only 18 years old and
I really couldn't handle that much fame.
And so he turned down hosting SNL because he like, didn't want
to take any more jobs that would make him more famous.
Bro I would no I would never do SNL.
He wouldn't. Oh, nightmare.
What I would do? Nightmare dude that.
'D be, so it's all scripted. Nightmare.
That'd be so fun. Good dude, if this shit blows up
you got it then. Bring me on SNL.
Yeah bro, you got it, SNL. Might be coming back.
I feel like that makes sense, like you.
And there's so many, like cult iconic pictures of him on the
Internet. Michael Cera, Yeah.
What do you mean? Like I remember like he did
something we also he was dating Aubrey Plaza and then he did
Scott Pilgrim versus the world, which ended up like that had to
be because of this, like just kind of that it kind.
Of happened like a nerdy guy that's a badass.
Yeah, he's good at it. He's literally reasonable and
he's just a little socially awkward.
But like when push comes to shove, like he's out there
getting an attractive girl. And then when they actually see
them at the mall, not under the influence, not under the
pressures of like being in the hallways at school, they're
actually pretty smooth talkers. Jon Hill's Seth character, like
is pretty funny, like lights it up.
But like so is Michael Cera's character.
He literally says he's like could be worse.
Like he could have a black eye. That's funny, right?
That's good. They arced, they made it through
the night, survived. It wasn't that bad.
Now they can talk to. Girls.
Yeah. Then they realized they can go
their separate ways and they'll be fine.
They'll be fine. They'll get girls without each
other. Be OK.
Yeah, they're just dudes. But yeah, no Michael Cera, like
there's, I know he did something with Jersey Shore.
Have you ever seen that picture where he's like sitting at a
table and it's like super, super awkward and his like hair is
like just spiked out? I don't know.
Let's see. OK, that's funny.
Is that a movie or you just showed up?
I think he, yeah, he's rookie. I think he was like trolling
Jersey Shore because he's the opposite of Jersey Shore.
Yeah, that's that's trolling. That is like the definition of
it. That's hilarious.
Yeah. Because it's funny because like,
it's it's weird with Michael Cera, because I don't actually
know what he's like. I haven't seen any interviews
where I'm convinced that that's what he actually sounds like.
But he's he's an incredible actor.
I think. Like so he did this Arrested
Development. He was a kid actor on that.
But he like held his own. I mean, Jason Bateman and like a
lot of comedy legends, like he did very well on that show and
he kept up. Then he goes on to do Scott
Pilgrim versus the World, and then he plays, you know, a
version of himself in This is the End.
You know where he plays the douchebag like getting the
blowjob from 2 girls, slapping Rihanna on the ass, and then
like doing cocaine, telling people like who the fuck took my
phone? That's really fucked up of
y'all. Like just like a complete
Hollywood asshole. But he played it really, really
well. I was like, is he playing
himself? We can't tell.
Yeah. But then we go on like we saw
him in a movie, a Wes Anderson film, last year.
Yeah, yeah. Is that the Phoenician scheme?
Yeah, Phoenician Scheme, He did a great job in that, and he
played like two different roles in that movie, so he's good.
I have no idea what that dude is actually like in real life.
I think that's what makes him such a good actor.
Well, it's good. I mean, you know, he's he's
can't be a douchebag because one they made him a douchebag and
this is the end, right. And then he had a problem with
fame. So like, he's clearly not in it,
for he's not full of himself. I'm also convinced like dude,
you don't make it in this industry if you actually suck in
real life. I don't think that's true.
There's a lot of actors that suck.
I think in real life I. Don't know.
Not, I don't know, like I'm thinking about like the all the
people that made this movie. Not in comedy.
You can't suck in comedy. Ain't the flow.
It's got to be comfortable, got to be able to improvise, OK?
OK, I'll hear you there. I think like if you're going to
make it into this crew at this time, like you had to like be a
pretty chill guy. I.
Mean the set just watching some behind the scenes footage.
They are just dying laughing or rewatching the ticks like
they're having a blast making this movie.
Yeah. Then but then like they also
like kind of went on to do some prank interviews after the movie
where like there's one famous one where it's like Jonah Hill
getting mad at an interviewer and he's like, seriously, if you
ask me one more stupid fucking question again, I'm going to
beat the shit out of you like without all these cameras.
But it's yeah, yeah, it's not real.
Was was it Michael Cera and Jed Apatow that did that prank on
the set? Were they like fighting?
Yes. Wasn't it Michael Cera?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think I, I do know what you're
talking about. They like there's like like lost
footage too. Yeah, like it looks like it's
real behind the scenes footage. Pull that up.
Yes, it's definitely Michael Cera.
Yeah. Fighting with the baby.
Yes, with the baby. Happy for you.
I am. Congratulations, you know.
Michael, can you just, let's just start from the top again,
but just raise your energy. Yeah, OK.
All right. That doesn't make any sense at
all to me. I'm sorry that doesn't.
How could it not make sense to you?
Because I had sex, your sperm hit my egg and now I'm pregnant.
OK, I heard. Yeah, I understand that all kind
of fell into when you said you were pregnant, but can.
We just let's just start up at the top.
OK, just. Just can you just raise your
energy? Just get a little energy.
Here, Yeah. What do you mean?
What do you can't be pregnant? What are you talking about?
I'm pregnant with you, baby. What?
No, that's stupid. That doesn't even make sense to
me. OK, Yeah, I don't.
Mean yell. I'm just saying energy, not.
Yell. And what is energy like you're
telling me you say energy and then I come and give you energy
and then you're saying no energy and like, what do you tell me?
We're all kind of wondering what it is, so why don't you tell us?
And I know you feel the same way because we discussed it.
Are you having a? Problem with us.
No, I mean, don't back down. This is your channel like it's
going to be like this the whole rest of the time unless we say
I'm saying something right now to you.
What the big secret is is what is it that you want to do?
Because we've done 15 takes of this and I've done it with high
energy and I did it low and then a middle 1.
You know that that was a good take.
Well, let's. Just, you know, if you want to
talk about it, let's not do it in front of the crew, let's do
it outside. Oh OK then quit shouting shit
out to me when I'm in the middle of a sentence.
Not even a take a good sentence that's good on film you.
Know what I do you need a break are you having a hard day
that's. Bullshit.
OK. Who's Hey can anyone fight who's
directing this movie? Does anyone know?
Why don't you direct yourself then?
Why don't you do that? I would love to do that.
Why? Don't you do?
It That would be heavenly. And it's just fucking everything
up I'm getting. Tired.
Oh, it's fucking everything. OK, Have fun editing this.
This would be good. So you say, and then you say I'm
not even. Here, don't listen.
To him I don't. Even care.
You know what? I'm fucking tired of your
bullshit. Good.
Fucking asshole. Good.
Your show isn't even on the air anymore.
OK. Well, why don't you then tell me
what you want to do, and then I'll do it so that you can tell
me you don't want it anymore. I'll do it to perfection and
you'll tell me that it's garbage.
Someone bring me a wardrobe change or something so that we
can move on from this scene. That we've gotten golden takes
of time after time and that none of them are are being used.
And if you rolled on any of the five rehearsals we did, you'd
have five more golden takes. Can someone tell me what we're
doing? I don't.
I mean, don't just sit here now. You're like, this is it, you
know? This is it.
She's. Fine.
She's not fine because she's telling me shit that you can't
hear because we're not because you're using a boom light and
not wireless microphones so we can have a private conversation
like that between actors. I'm just trying to be
supportive. I don't.
You know what? Fuck this noise.
Fuck all you good bullshit. Shit.
So were they pranking everybody? Like was it just them?
Just them too? So she had no.
Idea No, she's not in on it. Oh dude, that's genius.
And that's, that's awesome. We watch that.
You're like, oh fuck yeah. Unless you're told that's fake,
then it's. Oh yeah, OK.
Yeah, yeah, for sure. Now, same thing with the that
that Jonah Hill interview that I was talking about, like if you
didn't know and it was a prank, he'd be like, oh man, Jonah Hill
sure does seem mad because he's, if you just watch Superbad and
then you watch this interview, it's like, Oh yeah, he's not
acting. This is Jonah Hill mad.
But like, now they're just just having fun, just pushing goofy
dudes. That's how.
See, that's good marketing. Oh yeah.
It's really good. That shit goes viral.
You're like, whoa, what the fuck?
Yeah, I got to watch this movie. How'd it turn out?
Yeah, that's good marketing. But yeah dude, super bad.
Maybe one of the greatest opening title sequences of all
time. With the dancing, Yeah, they're
dancing to. Had to add it to my phone as we
were watching it. They're dancing to Too Hot to
stop by the bar caves. Great song it.
Just sets the vibe exactly for the movie.
Yeah, I just, and and again, I'm like I said this to you before
we started the episode, like if you're going to do that because
you know that this movie is about to rock.
Yes. Exactly because it does.
It just, it gets you in. It's so funny.
It's nothing special. Like it's clearly there was
like, yeah, here's a green screen.
We're going to play this song. We just want you to dance to it.
It kind of keep your character in consideration, but Just Dance
and we'll just get the best that we think.
Speaking of music, Bill Hader got in trouble on set during the
donut sequence. He improvised playing Panama,
and Judd Apatow was really pissed off because they get the
rights to have Panama in the movie.
It cost the same amount of money that the entire music was
combined. No way.
So just took. A chunk out of the budget
because Bill Hader wanted to play Panama without permission.
Panama. I love Bill Hader dude.
It's it's a good touch in the movie.
He yeah, like I'm, I'm glad that he ended up like kind of in
their group too, because he was just, I mean, he was a killer
like on SNL and then and then he everybody in comedy ends up just
being a beast in drama roles. Yeah, Yeah.
I wonder if it's because you have to like, knowing comedic
timing and to be funny you have to be serious.
Yeah. In stupid situations, yeah.
Yeah. Also being able to control your
laugh, having control over your emotions.
Yeah. You know, 'cause like when
you're saying funny shit, improvising, like what's funny,
it's hard. Having rewatched in the Office
the Super fan episodes, which are the ones like it's the
extended cuts with like they, you know, the takes that like
they're not, there's just extra footage that they didn't, didn't
fit in the 23 minutes they had to run.
So like the episodes like 40 minutes long, but they're really
funny. But with the, you know, things
that they cut out, you can see sometimes like they're about to
break because The Office is mostly improv, like improvised,
like they had some scripting things.
But like a lot of the funny moments are just improvised by
the characters. It's like you can see like Rainn
Wilson like about a break, like mid take, you know.
So being able to like just control that laughter is key.
So then you could probably turn that control into the drama
sense easier maybe. It's it's well, it's just funny
that you're saying that as I'm talking about Bill Hader, who is
like the worst SNL member when it comes to breaking.
Yeah, like, but I don't know, for some reason he does get a
pass. Like I, that's a thing I really
don't want to criticize too much, but I've been noticing
like sometimes I tune into SNL these days and it's like they're
they're like forcing the brakes that I'm seeing on SNL.
It used to be like a, like a, like you, there was like a code
of honor for like doing everything in your power to not
break on SNL for the sake of like keeping it real, keeping it
funny. I see everybody breaking on SNL
now, but yet here I am saying that when Bill Hader did it, it
was funny. So it's just so like I don't
know how there's no way to explain it.
It's also different. Get the pass.
I think they're kind of getting better at it, but for a while it
seemed like they were also just so stuck on reading the cards.
Yeah, like they would be. I'll be talking to you in
character, but I'm like looking this way, like reading the card.
And I, I don't know, I didn't really watch it back then.
Obviously I was like child. But I remember watching clips
and it seemed like it was more like improv, like free in the
moment kind of thing. Because they're, this must be
improv comedy. Yeah, but they're just like
super stuck on the cards it seems like nowadays.
Maybe they're getting out of it 'cause that's now seems to be
getting funnier again. Yeah, kind of headed a low for a
good minute. A good minute and it's also but
it's one of those things where I'm like, is it just not funny
to me? Because my the cast that I loved
so much is not in it at all anymore.
And it was Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig, Andy Samberg, I.
Mean Wolf Ferrell's on there back in the day.
Jimmy Fallon Yeah, but that was more that was like 90s.
That was before my time. Like Bill Hader when he was
killing it on SNL, like that's when I was like, I was a big fan
of SNL, but it's funny. Like, you know, we're but we're
talking about the drama rolls. He went on to do Barry, which I
love that show so much. But even when he was doing
comedy movies like this, he was still doing like there's one
like very dramatic movie that he did.
It was sad as fuck too. And it's he plays like a a a
brother, like a maybe a twin brother to Kristen Wiig, who's
also like hilarious on SNL and they were like kind of a big,
big duo. But like he like I think he
kills himself in this movie that I'm thinking of.
So it was not funny. It was.
Not funny. Big let down.
Movie sucks. No, no laughs.
Yeah, and it's so like, it's just great.
Like Bill Hader, he's a threat. He's a threat.
He's so good in everything that he does as far as we've seen.
So now we've seen super bad. And now we got to watch Hot Rod,
because Bill Hader is a legend in that, too.
Yes, it's nice because they, you know, they said Bill Hader was a
no brainer. Obviously, we're going to put
Bill. Hader in here, it's so easy and
Bill. Hader saying it's nice because
like, everybody's funny so we can all play off each other.
That's just a great comedic role.
Like, nobody has to carry. Yeah, you got to just be a
little funny or vibe off each other and then the scenes going
to be hilarious. Yeah, there's just like so like
so many good little moments, but like I'm thinking of 1 little
moment and I I wonder if it's scripted.
I feel like it was improvised by Bill Hader, but it works
perfectly in the movie and it's so genius for what is happening.
And so obviously the two officers arrest Mclovin.
Well, they don't arrest them, but they like have them tag
along because they know instantly that this is not a 25
year old. Like this dude is clearly still
in high school, but they want to impress him because they see a
little bit of themselves in him. There's a scene, though, where
they do their Yoda impressions and that's them kind of like
letting up on their cool cop act and they're actually being
themselves, which they're like kind of nerdy dudes.
Yeah, Yeah. And so they do the Yoda thing,
but then they like kind of they're like kind of stop and
make sure that Mclovin's cool with it.
So like, you ever, you ever heard of Yoda is like Attack of
the Clones? Yeah.
Talking about. Yeah, talking about Attack of
the Clones, because that's the one that this kid would probably
know if he did know of Star Wars, right.
You know, So just little like lines like that, you know, And
then it's also funny like when he is telling Mclovin after he's
blocked his cock, he tells him like, you know, we saw you in
that gas station, that liquor store.
We just, we saw a little bit of ourselves in you.
And as he's saying that, you just get like the side profile
of Mclovin with his glasses on as Officer Slater looks like a
grown up Mclovin. And then it goes even deeper
into that because one could make the argument that Mclovin
probably ends up being a cop after high school.
Probably. Because at the end of this, he
like he's in love, like he literally prefers hanging out
with them over his high school friends at this point.
Yes. And then?
They did him a huge solid. Made him a badass at the party.
Yep, arresting him. Yeah, but then he like, kind of
drops the whole nerd thing whenever he shoots the car.
Yeah. And what does he say?
Break yourself full. How does he say?
Block this bitch or. He says it's so good, but he
like puts the gun sideways and you could tell because they've
been teasing that he wants to shoot a gun.
So like the whole movie and he finally shoots it and it's like
Mclovin's going to end up being a cop with these guys after high
school. He's.
Going to have a patrol car with one of them.
Yeah, the new, the new partner. Yeah, just full circle.
We. Need a spin off movie with
Mclovin as a cop with Bill Hader.
Dude, the actor that plays big Love him.
He's probably old enough to do that, yeah.
He is. Oh bro.
Bill Hader said He got so many roles offered to him to be a cop
after this movie because he's just so funny as a cop.
He's so good. He got so many roles offered to
him to be a cop. Telling telling high school
girls like get out of here sugar Ted like just insane thing for a
cop to say they're. All they're hammered when
they're coming in. He said we will shoot.
You, like, I assume you all have guns and crack as he's waving
his gun around at high school children.
Oh, my God, the like, I don't even know how they get through
this take, but whenever Bill Hader and Seth are explaining
Mclovin, like, you don't want to meet a girl at a bar, you know,
like, once we learn that, like, that whole take is in one shot.
And it's so Gene, like the punch line is that Bill Hader's
character. It's been remarried to a good
girl, but he's still, like, hung up on this whore of a wife that
opened his world sexually. Yeah.
Like the punch, like you can
tell. Like it's all just one take.
But then Bill Hady was like, yeah.
And I I got a new wife. I got a new wife.
She's great. She's wonderful.
And then that's when it cuts because you, you could tell like
that's probably when they started busting out.
Yeah, and Seth Urban's like, you'll meet her.
They're going to keep hanging out after this.
Yeah. Exactly.
Yes, exactly. OK, so Christopher Mintz Plaza,
because he was 17 years old, he's a minor filming filming a
sex scene. His mom had to be on set and
watch it during it. So like, imagine how awkward
that would have been. Oh, I mean, that's the nightmare
situation. Your mom has to watch you while
your finger gets sucked by a actress.
Yeah, but I would also like to think that Seth Rogen just kind
of who's literally playing his version of a cop in this, like,
he's just Seth Rogen in a cop uniform.
He probably was like, look, dude, like, I'm, I'm so sorry
you have to do this, but we're going to pay a lot more money
because of it. You know, he'd like, cut a cool
deal like that. He's like, this sucks, here's
more money. The director was like, I saw a
clip of him after they shot it. He's like, yeah, so we just had
a film, 2 simulated sex scenes between the characters.
I feel like a creep having to do that, but you know, it's really
good, turned out really good. Well, and then I think about it
like it's pretty quick like that.
You only get him shown on top of, well, I guess she's on top
of him too. That's all you really see.
He's never on top of her. Oh no.
He is. He is when he.
Oh my God, it's in. But that's such good acting
because he's like, he's like, kind of like literally, it's
literally what it would look like from that, like from that
girl's perspective, like. And she thinks she's a 25 year
old. Yeah.
Also, she doesn't even remember. Doesn't even remember him.
That's how much like of a loser. He's in high school.
She doesn't even recognize that. That's who it is.
She thinks she believes he's 25 years old.
His name's Mclovin from Hawaii. Yeah, yeah, he's very
forgettable. But like, just like that scene
is so good whenever it's just him and there's a camera and
he's just like, you know, he's he does such a good job of the
focus look. And then when it's in like
that's don't you remember? Like that's that's what it was
like. Oh, he gets.
I mean, that's why I like, yeah, it's not even that long with sex
scene because he gets one thing and then here comes Officer
Slater. They.
Saved him honestly. They save him.
What do you mean? Because it would have been a 12
pump done. I doubt he would have seen it
that way. It would have been flying high.
True. He's like, bro, I just had,
like, the most insane night of all time and I got laid.
Yeah. Yeah.
But he he's going to go get the girl.
Mclovin's going to go get the girl.
He's going to pull up in the cop car, gun out.
I'll pay him, bitch. That'll be his line, probably.
That'll in the Mclovin movie, yes.
Yeah, yeah, I'm pissed, dude. I should have gotten.
I've. There's a Mclovin T-shirt you
can get with the ID. Yeah, yeah.
Should have gotten that for this episode.
It's my bad. Iconic as I was.
Iconic ID. As I was pulling up, I was like,
why didn't I get that fucking loving shirt?
I should already just have that. Yeah.
But we were talking about like, just kind of how cool this set
was, just like, everybody hanging out, having a good time.
I think like, you know, we just kind of agreed, like, all right,
you got to be cool to be on a set like this.
I think one of the funniest things that they do on the set,
and you've probably heard of this, is whenever Jonah Hill is
finding out that he has the period blood on his pants.
Yeah. Do you know who's in the
background of that scene? Danny McBride?
No way. He's just in the background.
What? He's just in the background.
He's not a major part of the movie.
And then he obviously, he goes on to do Pineapple Express.
So he's clearly in with these guys.
He's just in the background. Go look it up.
Go look up Jonah Hill period scene and I will show, 'cause
it's not just Danny McBride. This is like why it's even
funnier to me. I'll show you now.
Just look up. Can we find the scene?
There he is, right there. Yeah, No way.
Yes, but here's the like the cool part though is so Danny
McBride obviously could have played a good role in that scene
of being like, dude, that's fucking blood on your pants.
Like you could see Danny McBride playing that role, but it's
actually two of his like long time Co creators that he works
with all the time. Jody Hill.
Oh really? Who I've yeah, who I've worked
with on a Sonic commercial, but Jody Hill is the one with like
the just the insanely bad haircut.
And then the other guy who I did not know, but he did work with
him. His name is, Oh, I forgot to
write it down. But Joe, like they're the ones
telling him like, that's fucking blood in your pants.
And then go get the rest of the party.
They're the ones that wrote Eastbound and down with Danny
McBride. That's insane.
And well, in that other, I don't actually, I don't want to sound
like a Dick, but the first movie that Danny McBride ever did, but
that he wrote and made himself was with Jody, was with Jody
Hill, who is the one that's like, I got to go tell Bill.
Oh, OK. Yeah, I guess that is Jody Hill.
Yeah, but then Jody Hill also like he does act, you see, like
he's like a pretty not major character in Righteous
Gemstones. He's one of the.
He's the band. Yeah.
He's the band member. Yeah.
He plays guitar. Yeah.
So like, that's just like a funny cameo that Danny McBride
was on set and he was like, oh, fuck it, I can go to my boys.
Like they can, they can do that. That's that's cool.
Yeah, but yeah, Danny Pride just chilling.
Dang, because I guess background, I was looking heavy
in the background of the high school party, like some, you
know, there's some actors that, you know, you can recognize that
are just in the back. So that's when I was looking.
But in this scene, I don't think I was.
Yeah. Damn.
I thought you were because like, at the same time in the scene,
they have a call back to the guy that shows up and he tells John,
I'm like, we're going to get so fucked up tonight.
Yeah, Yeah. That's the liquor store clerk
that like he said, Sir, like, did you do this?
Mclovin's like, no, and you should honestly clean this up.
Somebody could really hurt themselves.
And he says, fuck my life. Yeah.
That's the same dude that walks in a party that recognize that.
Yeah. Yeah.
I thought you were going to because I was watching you watch
the scene. I thought you were going to see
that because he goes up to Danny McBride and starts taking shots
with him. That's insane.
Yeah, that's hilarious. That's just in it in the
background. Just in it in the background.
And then he ends up being a a huge role in Pineapple Express.
He. Probably didn't even get paid
for that. He probably just showed up for
for like as a favor. Oh I mean he got paid as a
background actor. He got paid like 2.
He got paid like 200 bucks which he probably was like fuck that.
I know, I feel like he probably prices it for free.
Yeah, no problem to set. Hang out for a day.
I got nothing going on. Well, then, if that's the case,
I would like to imagine that like, they're probably drinking
on. Yeah, probably.
They're like, no, it's a fake beer.
You notice that Mclovin's ID, when they he first pulls it out,
it's like a laminated when they're not the close-ups, but
when they're holding it, passing it around, the first time you
see it, it's like a laminated card.
Like it's, I guess they didn't have the ID yet when they
filmed. It's like you can literally see
the laminated border around like a white piece of paper.
Like so clearly not like a. Yeah, you're not even trying to
make like it doesn't look like a fake ID at all when you see it
left close. And at the end of the movie when
they're holding it, it actually is a fake ID.
Yeah, but I guess when they shot that scene, they didn't have the
fake ID yet. So there's just like a laminated
piece of paper. That's so funny.
Also, there's no back on it. There's no like.
That's what I noticed on this. Yeah.
Like I was like that doesn't even look like it looks like the
shittiest ID ever. 'Cause it's just like a lamb for
for the prop ID it was just a laminated piece of paper.
It goes well with the joke of it being the dumbest fucking fake
ID of all time. Yeah, yeah, You know, And then
yeah. Oh, dude, I just love this
movie. Love this movie, Love that it
like actually has a good story, a good message to it.
Relatable. Relatable.
I just, I think it's one of those like you're probably like
probably like first 3 days of shooting, you're like, thank
God, like this is going to be really good.
Be so funny. Bree Improv.
Just have fun on set. Yep, that's all you need to do.
That's perfect. Shall we?
Shall we rate Superbad? Let's do it.
All right, what you got for Superbad?
For Superbad, if anybody disagrees, I think you're on the
wrong YouTube channel. All right, acting 10 out of 10.
I think for what they were going for, literally they got
everything they could have hoped and dream dream for.
I just think it's like you, this movie doesn't work unless the
acting is perfect. Yep, exactly what Seth
envisioned in his head when he was writing it.
Comedy is almost entirely based on the acting.
Yeah. So with that being said, shout
out to Seth Rogen. Writing is also a 10 out of 10.
I think kind of what we were saying at the beginning, like
this is how this is how people talked in high school, dude.
All right? They captured it perfectly.
Not corny at all, which I think when you're going for high
school comedy, that's hard because you're really trying to
get the kids to like it or college kids to like.
It I think Sony who I think produced it, they were saying
they didn't like that Michael Sayers character was playing the
PlayStation 2. So like these characters are so
horrible and obscene like I don't want them to be playing or
using our products and Seth Rogen was affinity.
He's like, This is why I wasn't high school.
Yeah, like, this is what I did. What are you talking about?
Yeah, he was offended by that, that they didn't want him to
play a PlayStation 2 because of how they said how horrible the
characters were. Yeah, they're not horrible.
They're just high school kids. Just want yeah, it's just one of
those like telling the studio exactly, just chill the fuck
out, chill the. Fuck.
Out they're all they're going to see is a dude getting pissed off
about the video game. And your product, it'd make you
want to buy a PlayStation 2 because he's you.
Want to be like, yeah, you want to be like these?
Cool. Be like Evan, yeah.
So I just think writing 10 out of 10, the fact that he wrote
this starting at that, like at the age of 13, that's just sick
editing 9 out of 10, this movie is just a beast.
This movie is just a beast. Cinematography 7 out of 10, it's
just solid. This is a comedy movie.
We're not going to win an Oscar here.
This is just awesome. So enjoyability 10 out of 10,
which brings me to a 9.2 out of 10.
This is. This is a very important comedy
film, very nice in in in our lives.
I would say, I would say that with utmost certainty, this this
shaped a lot of this. This just set the standard.
This was one of those that like set the standard for us.
Like if it it wasn't like this, we typically thought it was
corny. So I just, I think this movie
was as perfectly done as they could have hoped for.
Agreed. So good for them.
Acting for me 10 out of 10 again, comedy acting is
phenomenal. It's hilarious.
Every performance brings out the character even more.
Perfectly casted writing 10 out of 10 The writing also goes to
the improv they did on set. Like we, I'm not sure exactly
what was improv, what was written, but they did a lot of
improv. You just see this powerhouse
that they have as a cast and it's like clearly these dudes
were able to just, they could do whatever they wanted.
Yeah, so that the writing of the story is great with the comedy
and then also the improv, which is also considered writing this
phenomenal editing. 8 out of 10, solid editing, cinematography 7
out of 10, again, nothing special, but you know, captures
the the humor. Cinematography on the on a
comedy is more just capture the move, capture the movement and
capture the character. So it's not much arts.
You mean you can, but majority of comedies is just shoot the
action. We don't need to worry about
like crazy cinematography and then enjoyability. 10 out of 10
for a total score of nine out of 10 for Super Bad.
Hell yeah. Hell yeah.
That's what I'm talking about. Let me ask you this just just to
kind of close things out. What would what would you say is
like what would you say your favorite scene of the movie is?
Favorite scene of the movie? I had this in my head but I
can't think about it. What's yours?
I think my favorite scene, it's like, I think it's a pretty
underrated scene too. But clearly they had a lot of
fun making it. But the reason I love it so much
is that, like, I relate to it so much.
And it's when Jonah Hill tells his boys he's like, all right,
fuck this. Like Fogle's ID isn't going to
work. So now I'm going to go into the
store and rob it. I'm just going to steal a bunch
of alcohol because like, how hard could it be?
And he goes in there and he just starts seeing all the different
versions of how this could go. And like he, the 1st 2 are just
like, everything goes great. And he's like, yeah, in a
perfect world, like this is exactly how it goes.
And then the third one is where it just gets nuts and ends with
the officer slicing his neck open, which ends up just being
like a whole just like just I love that they did that.
Love that they just threw a extremely violent death scene in
this movie because they just wanted to.
That's how. That's how Steph would envision
this would go Get his throat sliced.
Yeah, and it's just like I related to that so much in high
school, having to go sometimes, finesse alcohol sometimes.
Using your fake ID for the first time was also so scary.
College. That's when I had my first fake
ID in high school. Don't know how this really
worked out the way it did but we had a gas station off a back Rd.
and there was just one lady that worked there and she never she
never asked us. Nice.
She she was arrested. Oh, no way.
The, we went to the gas station like one day.
We were in college at that point, but we're like, let's go
see, let's go see Ruby, Ruby at Shell RP.
Hope you're actually still alive.
But she like, yeah, the gas station was like fully closed.
She was, yeah. Like, 'cause dude, she was like
bootlegging too. She was like, she would sell us
fireball from like behind the counter, which you could not.
You can't do that in Texas, right?
You can't sell liquor at a gas station.
Now they've kind of finessed their way.
They have, like, mall liquor. Yeah, they have, like, fake
liquor. But, like, not back in those
days. She'd like sell us liquor.
That's hilarious. This is insane.
And she did not last long, but I still was like, this is a sting
operation, dude. Yeah, yeah, they're going to,
they're going to, you know, in my head, like 1718 years old.
I was like, dude, they're going to watch us buy this alcohol
underage. Then they're going to follow us
to the party. Then they're going to arrest all
of us. Some some of us are going to get
shot because we're going to try and run away.
Me, I'm going to get shot. And then they're going to
interrogate us about like, all right, we got the we got the
alcohol. Now who are the drug dealers?
Like that's see, I just did it right there.
Like that's like where my mind would go.
No. We used to get drunk in high
school because I lived on a lake.
No, I didn't. My house is on the lake, but we
had a lake nearby as one of my friends live on the lake.
And we used to canoe out to one of the islands on the lake.
And we camp out there and hang out, spend the night, you know,
have like a whole little campsite.
And his dad would come by sometimes to, you know, come
check it out, hang out, whatever.
Cook his food on the campfire. And he'd bring a cooler full of
so many beers and he'd bring it for himself.
He'd have a couple. And then he would just leave
them, you know, like say, oh, you know, leave, forget to bring
the cooler back, you know, and we open the cooler, we're like,
let's go. So we had a, we had a secret
supplier. You're chilling on island or
you're chilling on an island. You can't.
You're not going to hurt anybody.
You might hurt yourself but like.
Yeah, a lot of sketchy things on the island, playing with fire.
Yeah. Getting sketchy out there, but
it's fun. Yeah, but it's on the island, so
if you burn the island down, at least you don't burn the
neighborhood down. You're safe.
Yeah, he's a, he's a yeah, it's I'm not going to say this.
You're you're going to out him. Donut.
Out and I was going to say a specific detail that I'm not
going. To say, yeah, yeah, you're good,
we don't have to do all that. I don't think anybody's going to
be able to track down my gas station lady from 2017.
Nobody would track down Ruby and Hideaway, Texas.
But yeah, so that that's my favorite scene though.
All right. My favorite scene is when Vogel
brings the ID and their whole exchange of just like what the
fuck is like what name? Yeah, even, even even Michael
Cera's character, who has been very calm and, you know, like,
hey, you don't talk about her like that.
He's like kind of been defending Fogle too.
Yeah, trying to be supportive. Yeah, but even he's like
Mclovin. Just just Mclovin.
Yeah, he's like, is between that or Mohammed?
What the fuck was it between that and Mohammed?
Yeah, Jonah Hill kills in that scene.
That's. What every scene favorite line
is when Jonah Hill is talk talking to the girl for her
name, Emma Stone. She's like asking for alcohol
and she's like, you know, if you scratch our back, we'll scratch
yours. Oh, funny thing about my back is
it's actually located on my cock.
Favorite line? That was such a famous line
after this movie, too. Everybody said that, yeah,
there's just. And like, I, Oh my God, we were
losing it today because I think there's like, so many of the
major ones that, you know, are coming up, they also forget
about, like, the subtle things that they put in there.
So one that got us good is whenever Officer Slater is
turning off his walkie and he cuts to like, Channel 2 and he's
like, I need backup. There's so much blood.
And back to the conversation, drinking beers.
Just a little shit like that. I mean, timeless movie.
Just always going to be a go to. Just yeah, classic, classic.
Yep. Thankful for Superbad.
