Superbad Trailer Recut: Epic Adventure
Someone by the name of “Marshall” has turned our favorite comedy Superbad, into an amazing looking action film. The re-cut trailer shows that with a little editing, the marketing people could have actually made Superbad appear to be a dark thriller. It would have created a very cool twist for an already awesome comedy. Kudos to the creator!

Cera and Hill Love to Hate
When I was young I had a really close friend that would continually pummel me with insults. I would return the favor and it turned into a long lasting friendship. To this day my parents never really understood us. Well, it turns out that Michael Cera and Jonah Hill share that same closeness.
When ABC News recently interviewed the gruesome twosome they relentlessly taunted each other throughout a miniature golf game and traded insults over french fries and nachos. Truly, the mark of best friends.

Unscripted Superbad Interview
A couple of weeks ago I posted about submitting questions for Moviefone’s star-on-star video Q&A show. The result? Some hilarious clips! Jonah Hill and Michael Cera debate the great topics of our time: sandwiches, high school dating tips and how to join the Judd Apatow club. You can watch the interview in a variety of flavors. They are also featuring some uncensored clips from the interview.
