Jonah Hill’s performance in Superbad was Oscar worthy

[Heavy_Handz]

The dude had so many classic lines it is unbelievable. One of the best comedic performances with great dialogue ever probably.

“Yeah, well, while you guys are at Dartmouth, I'll be over at State where the girls are half as smart and thus twice as likely to fellace me.”

“Look, we all know Home Ec is a joke, no offense, it's just like everyone joins this class to get an "A". It's bullshyt and I'm sorry, and I'm not putting down your profession, but its just the way I feel. I don't want to sit here all by myself, cooking the shytty food, no offense, and I just think that I don't ever need to cook "Tiramasu." When am I gonna need to cook tiramasu? Am I gonna be a chef? No. There's two weeks left of school, just give me a fukking break... Sorry for cursing.”

“You don't want girls to think you suck dikk at fukking p*ssy!”

“Fine, Evan. Here it goes. When I was a little kid, I kinda had this problem, and it's not even that big of a deal. Something like 8% of kids do it, but whatever. It's--for some reason, I would just kinda sit around all day...and draw pictures of dikks”


“They literally made me stop eating foods that were shaped like dikks. No hotdogs, no popsicles. You know how many foods are shaped like dikks? The best kind!”

“You know when you hear girls say 'Ah man, I was so shyt-faced last night, I shouldn't have fukked that guy?' We could be that mistake!”




No shyt this movie is like the Shawshank Redemption of comedies. Every time it’s on TV I’ll just finish watching it from wherever it’s at Tell me I’m wrong! Best comedy of the 2000’s

yeah, It's a classic. Bum ass The Tourist got nominations, why not Superbad?

 

[Lord_nikon]

classic all around funny fat guy ( was fat )

 

[Premeditated]

I don't know about Oscar worthy but the movie came out when I was 17. I ain't seen it in a while and I still remember alot of his quotable.

dude was such a dry dikk

I'm still crying at both him and Evan sneaking across the other block just to get a "good glimpse of those warlocks" that was underrated patheticness

For me Superbad, Hot Fuzz, and 40 Year Old Virgin were probably my favorite comedies from the 2000's.

Though without a doubt it was a springboard for Jonah, as of the trio he's had a better career. He's avoided being typecast were the others are stuck in that "Superbad" role niche.

40 Year Old Virgin is right there too. Such a classic

Word. Also, RDJ got nominated for his role in Tropic Thunder. Why not Jonah Hill for Superbad?

 

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

Don't agree it was Oscar worthy but the fact they started writing it at 13 is still crazy to me.

 

[Paper Boi]

i havent seen it in years

but i remember thinking that shyt was funny and that he fell off when he got skinnier

 

[Lootpack]

This is probably the last coming of age teen comedy I had crazy fun with. I’m so glad it didn’t get a sequel, cause it would not hit like the original. Hill, Stone, and Hader are still kicking ass on the career front today.

McLovin

Trying to think of a similar movie that dropped over the past years....maybe Booksmart? That was fun, but it ain’t no Superbad.

Superbad at the time is not just a coming of age movie, but its a movie that sets itself in a time period; American Graffiti, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Dazed and Confused. Normally these types of movies takes a certain generation, for us, Superbad WAS that movie.

Probably in 10 years you will get another movie to encapsulate the youth of that period.

 

[Kenny West]

One of the single funniest performances in the 2000s

I will say that these types of movies don't get considered for Oscars. If Jonah did though, it would be for Supporting Actor and Javier Bardem won it for playing Anton Chigurh.

However I will say that Superbad WILL be remembered for a long time because it launched a ton of careers from it. Its one of those films that when you look back, and you see all the names in it, it's like looking at the 2001 Miami Hurricanes Championship Team roster.

Yeah. Sort of my point. Just because it’s a “typical” comedy immediately eliminates it when his acting performance was actually amazing.

No, no one’s gonna be McLovin cause McLovin never existed because it’s just a dumb fukking fairy tale name, you fukk
