Superbad revisited


Superbad never stops providing laughs. The Superbad double disc DVD release, my favorite comedy (right behind Hot Fuzz) of the year, keeps the extras front and center. The film itself has additional dialogue in many key scenes and runs longer than the theatrical version. Disc 2 has so many menu items you have to take a breather and then dive back in. Highlights include script readings from several years ago by the writers (Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg) and with the present cast, a press junket interview (a joke set up by the producers) that causes Jonah Hill to elevate to level five meltdown, and Cop Car Confessions an improv style series with actors from various Judd Apatow films going one-on-one from the backseat of Rogen and Bill Hader's patrol vehicle. There's also a great commentary track and a preview of the upcoming Pineapple Express.
