 In
time for the holidays, the only official book tie-in to the hilarious
blockbuster film, including the complete screenplay, movie stills, and
outrageous drawings that millions of fans will recognize from the film.
Synopsis
From
producers Judd Apatow and Shauna Robertson (The 40-Year-Old Virgin),
screenwriters Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen, and director Greg Mottola
comes Superbad, a coming-of-age cautionary tale about two socially
inept teenage boys about to graduate high school. Theirs is a
ridiculously dependent friendship—but now they've gotten into
different colleges and are forced to contemplate life apart. Evan
(Michael Cera) is sweet, smart, and generally terrified. Seth (Jonah
Hill) is foul-mouthed, volatile, and all-consumed with the topic of
human sexuality. They are joined by their nerdy pal Fogell (Christopher
Mintz-Plasse), whose fake ID as "McLovin" sets everything into motion.
This is the story of their misguided attempts to reverse a lifelong
losing streak with the ladies in one panic-driven night...that awful,
humiliating night you cherish for the rest of your life.

Reviews
"Superbad might be the most provocative teen sex comedy ever made; it is certainly one of the most convulsively funny."
David Edelstein, New York magazine
"Wide-eyed
and sincere as its hilarity, unrepentantly profane, the movie aims to
express what it's like to stare down the barrel of your first foray
into adulthood, and it's not afraid to be honest about it."
Carina Chocano, Los Angeles Times
