Superbad was apparently Super-F-ing-Badass, debuting at an easy #1 with over $31 million and a freshness rating of 86% (as of this writing) on RottenTomatoes. Of course, Andrew and I knew it was gonna be a winner as soon as we both heard the dulcet tones of Van Halen in the trailer.

Duncan: Ah, nerds tearing it up on their last night of high school, one of whom is played by George Michael from Arrested Development. Also, “Panama.” Awesome. I’m admittedly a sucker for Zany Night On the Town! comedies and I’m rooting for this all the way.

Gerding: There seem to be more and more of these types of slacker comedies being made since Napolean Dynamite surprised the hell out of everyone by being a hit, but Superbad looks like it’s set to be genuinely hilarious. I’d like to award bonus points for Panama as well - there’s nothing like hearing the classic songs of your youth in a trailer to get you pumped for a flick.
