Why is it a must see?

so, I just got home from working a sneak peek at the movie theater of a movie called Superbad.......and OMG, you guys have to go see it, it comes out in the US on August 17th.

It was a so totally awesome movie, and you know how I really am over critical of movies......

also, what have you guys seen lately that others should see or avoid?

anyone seen Hairspray?

Waiting for simpsons movie.

Think of seeing Superbad...

Gonna avoid the skinwalkers and linsey lohan movie.

'Who's your caddy?' Makes me die inside

Why is it a must see?

it is Laugh Out Loud hilarious, I mean I almost pee'd my pants, and it's non-stop humor and OMG, this thing happens and everyone in the theater was like laughing so hard that we missed the next 3 lines.

Also, it's not stupid funny either, not like American Pie with the bathroom humor and such, it was like..........so funny. I can't describe.

my comedies are reserved for Rentals... Good Comedies make me have to pause the movie to catch my breath.

so Superbad is on my to rent list. :p

I'll rent it.

if you rent it, you need at least 4 or 5 friends to come over and watch it with you for the first time.....it's def a "make smart ass remarks" movie.

I think I could totally make a Superbad drinking game.

Hehehe!

Erik Porn!

George Micheal! :D

anyone seen Hairspray?

I saw Hairspray on the stage. It was a rather average musical theater production. Lots of 50's style music.

Don't know how the movie follows the stage production. Usually when they try to make a movie out of stage it is a rather poor copy.

anyone seen Hairspray?

Not yet - Travolta in that fatsuit just creeps me out. :p

the idea of seeing Vinny Barbarino in drag creeps me out.

Granted I think he'll be great... but to me, John Travolta will always be Vinny Barbarino.

That's true too. I grew up watching reruns of that show. :p He kinda turned his image around with his more recent movies, but he's still mostly Barbarino.

I'm SuperAmped for Superbad...I have been for a while. I'm hoping it washes off the stink of my piss poor movie choices this year.

Well, I created a drinking game called "Crooked Nose". You watch an Owen Wilson movie, and every time you see a crooked nose, you take a drink. Miss a drink, take a shot.

Needless to say, you get wasted and fast.

mmmkay. So it's another movie I'm not going to see.

I'm sorry you have poor taste. ;)

I'm sorry you have poor taste. ;)

Don't be. I'm happier with my poor taste ;)

A high-school movie.

Damn you, Smunkee! You know that's my Hollywood weakness, my not-so-secret indulgence, my oh, so guilty pleasure!

Is this movie one of those awkward "I can't believe he just did that.." type movies?

They make me uncomfortable for some reason..

Oh that is geting watched.

"Shit it's the cops! Bail!"

I'm looking forward to going to see "Knocked Up" (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=NnJJrFAsklg&mode=related&search=)

A high-school movie.

Damn you, Smunkee! You know that's my Hollywood weakness, my not-so-secret indulgence, my oh, so guilty pleasure!

it's totally not a high school movie, it's rated R, so, in my state you have to be over 18 to even get in. Besides, it has lines like

Seth: [referring to Evan's mother] I am truly jealous you got to suck on those tits when you were a baby.
Evan: Yeah, well, at least you got to suck on your dad's dick.
Seth: [shrugs] It's a nice lookin' dick.

There is one word that sums up why everybody needs to see Superbad: McLovin! Also they play Panama by Van Halen in the movie so it can't be that bad. I'm Superstoked for Superbad.

The deleted clips are pretty damn funny too

McLovin was made of win! He reminded me of every nerdy guy that ever crushed on me in highschool, the chipmunk laugh and the squeaky voice, and the "actually there is a good reason for that" monologues that he goes on way past when anyone was listening to him.

it's totally not a high school movie,

It's about kids in high-school. It's a high-school movie.

I don't see how that bolsters your claim, although it does bolster something else...

I guess what I meant was it wasn't a teen movie.....

meh.

George Micheal! :D
Michael Cera; the one reason I'm wanting to see this.

He is pants-wettingly funny in Arrested Development, looks good in the trailer.

It's about kids in high-school. It's a high-school movie.
I'm not usually into 'teen comedy', but I'd watch this.

I guess what I meant was it wasn't a teen movie.....

Well, then.

meh.

Meh?

Meh?

I've always wondered what that meant, to be honest.

I asked a young person. They looked right at me, and said "meeeeh"

EDIT: Crap. I just timewarped myself.

Why is it a must see?

Whoa! Bad Kat!

Sure, you steal the OP. That happens. But you're supposed to edit in:

"Woot! My OP now!"

Sheesh, mods. No matter how many times you tell them, they just won't follow the rules ...

I know what it means. I wanted to know why.

The last movie I saw in a cinema was "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" ... in 2002.

Good, great. All power to you then.

I try to be monosyllabic, but I honest to fuck can't get my point across that way.

I'm a sad old geezer who needs things spelled out to him in actual words, with actual defined meanings.

And even more sadly, tries to say things, instead of making grunting sounds of challenge.

Then there's good posts which make the thread worthwhile. At least I know not to go see it.

Contradictions. Fassigen makes it plain that he has an opinion, and invites others to dig for it.

It's really obvious someone hasn't watched any of the clips and isn't really interested in the movie.

meh.
Meh?

Fass is being disregarded, since he's talking about himself and has no interest in the subject.


Meh?I've always wondered what that meant, to be honest.

Hobos is also interested in talking about himself. He is also utterly uninterested in the movie. Or any movie.

No-one is laughing.
No-one likes Hobos when he's like this.
This MIGHT be funny if others were cracking jokes. But it's dangerously close to the truth.
There was also a timewarp, putting the Fass/Hobos post above the Kat/Hobos post.
The thread is pretty much doomed.

I know what it means. I wanted to know why.

You don't say that to Hobos. "I know, and I'm not telling" is an invitation to a fight.
A very childish, nose-thumbing sort of fight.

Well, yeah.

Hobos is drunk and picking up furniture. Politely asking him to leave would be an option, but everyone knows that won't work on Fassigen.

Hell, I killed it. Fass would have killed it, too, though perhaps more slowly.

you do realize that you are now spamming my thread since you never answered my original question of what movies you have seen lately and if they were good or if they should probably be avoided?

Fass and I have a dynamic, it's best if people really stay out of it for the most part.

and Fass the meh, is because I totally know I don't have to convince you to watch it and my quote was there for obfuscation and not so much to prove any point I had about anything.

you do realize that you are now bumping my thread since you never answered my original question of what movies you have seen lately and if they were good or if they should probably be avoided?

Corrected. There was this, though:

The last movie I saw in a cinema was "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" ... in 2002.

The only reason I didn't walk out was because I was with friends and I didn't want to spoil it for them.
Let's just say, it didn't inspire me with a great enthusiasm ... to ever go to the cinema again.

And no, I don't think I'd like Superbad, to judge by the trailer and the outtakes. At least I'm not totally ignorant of it now. The best bits will turn up on Youtube, so ... *wishes he could say 'meh' with any conviction*

Fass and I have a dynamic, it's best if people really stay out of it for the most part.

I'll bear that in mind in the future.

It bugged me that Fass spent five words being a smartass, and another five stating the obvious, but somehow avoided telling me what "meh" means. Ten words to describe that, and I'd be out of your dynamic, quite satisfied.

Hey, OK.

Note to self: Google it you twerp. Asking Fassigen is like asking a lawyer to cut your lawn.

A high-school movie.

Damn you, Smunkee! You know that's my Hollywood weakness, my not-so-secret indulgence, my oh, so guilty pleasure!McLovin was made of win! ..Yeah, that McLoving boy looks pretty cool,
he reminds me of a really mighty dude getting -over Runescape- a California girl to travel across the country.. just to get laid.

Its on my list, thx Smunkee.

I'm looking forward to going to see "Knocked Up" (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=NnJJrFAsklg&mode=related&search=)

Seen it, and enjoyed it. BTW, a couple of the guys that were in Knocked Up are in Superbad.

I'm hoping to see Transformers on my birthday.

Seen it twice, loved it.
