It’s been 10 years since Superbad hit movie theaters, and we were introduced to McLovin and the magic of teenage love between Emma Stone and Jonah Hill.
To celebrate, Seth Rogen—who co-wrote the movie and appeared as Officer Michaels—went on a Twitter roll on Thursday in which he dropped many pertinent trivia facts about one of his most celebrated films.
Superbad turns 10 today, which makes Mclovin 35 I think.

Some Superbad trivia for its ten year anniversary. I don’t assume anyone cares that much but why not:

Rogen was wrong about that. In fact, plenty of people cared.
Danny Mcbride is an extra in the background of the first party scene in Superbad.

Rogen continued.
Almost all the names in Superbad are people we went to high school with and lots of the stuff in the movie really happened to us.

The period blood on the leg scene in Superbad actually happened to my friend at a high school dance and we discovered it after the dance.

Just like in Superbad, Mike Snider actually was the first guy to get a fake ID and it was awesome.

My good friend @mrDaveKrumholtz came up with the title Superbad while we were smoking weed at the oakwood

During the MPAA screenings of Superbad they said we were the first movie to say “fingerfuck”

The end house party in Superbad was filmed about half a block from the OJ murder house.

My mother came up with the joke that Mclovin gets arrested for statutory rape at the end of Superbad.
— Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) August 18, 2017
(As we learned recently, Rogen’s mother is no stranger to sex jokes).
And perhaps the most important fact of all for a phrase that was all the rage in the early 2010s.
The cast of Jersey Shore confirmed to me that the phrase “D.T.F” or “Down To Fuck” is from Superbad.
— Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) August 18, 2017
People in his Twitter mentions practically begged for Rogen to repeat the exercise on the 10th anniversary of Pineapple Express. Will that happen? You’ll just have to wait until Aug. 6, 2018.
