For the latest "High School" cycle episode, Julian, Madeline and Emilio revisit two beloved "one crazy night" teen/buddy comedies, Greg Mottola's 'Superbad' and Olivia Wilde's 'Booksmart'. The trio gets into what really works, and some of what doesn't work as well, in these two iconic films. While there are striking (and well documented) similarities between these two films, there are also notable differences. They discuss the performances of the young leads, what the presence of social media adds to one of these films, how these films present immature adults, and how common it is to be in an unbalanced friendships during your teen years. Madeline talks about the censored scene in 'Superbad' that she just saw for the very first time. Emilio shares his experiences being present at test/preview screenings for both of these movies. Julian sees a great opportunity (and name) for a current troupe of actors to identify as and adopt. And it's an Unlikely Shared Universe you won't want to miss!
