Videodrama: Superbad, super dancing

by
Brian Juergens
  • The trailer for the upcoming teen comedy Superbad looks pretty funny, and it has a very sweet moment about two minutes in between the lead guys (note that Jonah Hill also delivered the hilarious deleted Brokeback monologue in Knocked Up). We have seen the future of comedy, and it's gay-baiting-free.
  • This truly bizarre mashup of a Fosse-choreographed Gwen Verdon dance number from the 60s and a hip-hop song is absolutely hypnotic (t/y Popcandy for the tip)

    Well, it's not a true mashup, really -- but it combines a song with a dance routine obviously based on something else and makes for something altogether bizarre. Have you checked the mashuptown podcast on iTunes? They can be pretty fun and they push out to you every week if you subscribe (for free).

    That Hardcore preview is AWESOME! I totally want to see it.

    As for that "mashup": it is a testament to the brilliance of Bob Fosse. Pure genius and it blows my mind how modern his moves still look. Where would we be without him?

    I've loved Michael Cera since his days as George Michael on Arrested Development and that Brokeback monologue definitely endeared me to Jonah Hill (mmm. . . . Gyllenhaal salad). So Superbad is on a very short list of movies I want to see this summer along with Knocked Up(Seen it! Loved it) and Transformers (a little disheartened by the reviews I've read so far, but I gotta see Optimus Prime, dude).
