Superbad is a modern classic, with many fans fondly remembering the coming-of-age comedy and its introduction to some of this generation’s biggest comedy stars. Superbad is hilarious, and launched a slew of other raunchy comedies with the same creative team like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, This Is The End, and Knocked Up. While certainly a fan favorite, a recent metric showed that Superbad may actually be the funniest movie of all time, and writer and star Seth Rogen had a great response.
OnBuy Movies recently had a team of experts compile data using IMDB ratings and reviews. They took the top 125 highest rated films listed under the comedy genre and used the reviews containing words most synonymous with “funny” to determine which film audiences thought was the funniest. It's an interesting metric to use, and not an exact science considering anybody can write an IMDB review and it doesn’t account for bias. However, this metric determined that based on the criteria, 2007’s Superbad was crowned the funniest movie. An Instagram report releasing the outcome went viral.
