Superbad
Superbad is a 2007 American coming-of-age teen buddy comedy film directed by Greg Mottola, written by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, and produced by Judd Apatow. It stars Jonah Hill and Michael Cera as Seth and Evan, two teenagers about to graduate from high school. Before graduating, the boys want to party and lose their virginity, but their plan proves harder than expected. Christopher Mintz-Plasse (in his film debut), Rogen, Bill Hader, Martha MacIsaac, and Emma Stone (in her film debut) provide supporting roles. Rogen and Goldberg wrote the script during their teenage years. It is loosely based on their experience in Grade 12 at Point Grey Secondary School in Vancouver during the 1990s. The main characters have the same given names as the two writers. Rogen was also initially intended to play Seth, but due to age and physical size this was changed, and Hill went on to portray Seth, while Rogen portrayed the irresponsible Officer Michaels, opposite Saturday Night Live star Hader as Officer Slater. Superbad premiered at Grauman's Chinese Theatre on August 13, 2007, and was theatrically released in the United States four days later on August 17, 2007. Upon release, the film received positive reviews, with critics praising the dialogue and the chemistry between the two leads as well as the performances of the supporting cast. The film also proved financially successful, grossing over $170 million on a $17.5–20 million budget.
- Evan, hey. - Hey, Becca. - Hey, thank you for your pen. - Hey. No problem. No, no, don't worry. No worries. You keep it. You won't have to borrow one again because you'll have that one. - Thank you so much, that's... - You're welcome. Don't worry about it. So I was gonna ask you... ...did you hear about Jesse's grad party next weekend? - It should be fun. - I heard. I... It's a maybe. - Really? - For me at the moment.

- You got in? - We got right in. - Wanna do this, 'roid monkey? - Fuck you! Then we called it a night. We were all just really exhausted. What the fuck?! You would've loved it. It was an incredible, unbelievable night. That sounds like a lot of fun. You know, I'd love to go do something like that sometime. Who wouldn't? I mean, it was like... ...me and Seth are always kind of cooking up these... ...fun, sort of, little, you know, events. I guess you guys are really gonna go crazy next year together. We were going to, but we got into different schools. Really? That sucks.

Mrs. Hayworth, I joined this class because I'd be cooking with a partner. But she's never here, and I don't get twice the grades for doing all the work. I didn't invent odd numbers, Seth. I know, but look at Evan, okay? Just look at him. Don't keep me waiting much longer. I'm getting impatient up here. You know what I'm talking about. Miroki, you're embarrassing me. I'm here in my unit, isolated and alone, eating my terrible-tasting food... ...and I gotta look over at that. Looks like the most fun I've ever seen in my life. And it's B.S. Excuse my language. I'm just saying that I wash and dry. I'm like a single mother. We all know Home Ec is a joke, no offense. Everyone takes this class to get an A. It's bullshit, and I'm sorry. I'm not putting down your profession, but it's just the way I feel. I don't wanna sit here alone cooking this shitty food. No offense. And I just think that I don't ever need to cook tiramisu. When am I gonna need to cook tiramisu? Am I gonna be a chef? No. There's three weeks left in school. Give me a fucking break. I'm sorry for cursing. All right, Jules' partner isn't here today either. Pair up with her. Station four. Jules? All right. I'll give it another shot. I'll give Home Ec another shot.
