King of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters
So this movie is seriously amazing. It's a documentary about who is the reigning champion of Donkey Kong.
Basically, this guy above, Billy Mitchell, has been the reigning champion of Donkey Kong since the early 80's. You seriously have to watch this movie just to see him and his hair. He is so weird. Basically what you'd expect from a guy who spent his entire life playing an arcade game.
However, then this guy Steve (above) comes into the picture. He has a video tape that shows him beating Billy Mitchell's top score. So now we have a problem. Who is the real champion of Donkey Kong? You'd be surprised at how seriously some people take this.
So, Steve Weibe challenged Billy Mitchell to a Donkey Kong combat. You gotta watch this so see how these two grown men act about this. It's so funny. Basically, Billy Mitchell is the worst. The other guy is actually pretty normal.
Seriously people, watch this movie. It's coming to theaters on limited release soon.

Superbad
Okay, so I figured this movie would be mediocre at best...but I was surprised at how funny it actually was. Basically, these two high school seniors (Jonah Hill and Michael Cera) decide that they need to get girls before they go off to college. They decide to impress them by buying alcohol for the girl's party, even though they're all underage. One of their friends has a horribly made fake-ID which they try to use...and of course everything goes wrong and hilarity ensues.
Things I liked:
-It was hysterical...I haven's laughed that much in a movie in a long time
-Unlike most movies of this genre, the main characters actually learned a lesson by the end
-I love the home-ec scene where Seth is arguing with the teacher...Jonah Hill's delivery is amazing.
Things I hated:
-The one cop (Bill Hader) resembled one of my ex boyfriends
-The 800 penis pictures were a little disturbing...but I guess that's a guy thing because every guy in the theater thought it was hysterical.
So yeah, go see this movie. Prepare to laugh until you cry.
