Superbad turned 10 years old this week and with the milestone came the knowledge that Seth Rogen's teen-drinking tour de force will not easily be bested in the comedy genre.

The movie made household names of Jonah Hill, Michael Cera and Christopher Mintz-Plasse and also catapulted the careers of Andy Samberg, Bill Hader and reigning highest earning female movie star Emma Stone.

But did you know that Alien: Covenant star Danny McBride was in the 2007 movie? Or that it was the first movie to ever say fingerf**k?

Taking to Twitter to celebrate the movie's anniversary earlier this week, Superbad writer and star Seth Rogen shared some never-before-known trivia about the movie that will make you love it even more.

"Some Superbad trivia for its ten year anniversary," Seth introduced. "I don't assume anyone cares that much but why not."

Over the course of several tweets, Rogen went on to reveal that that yes, Danny McBride was in the background of a scene (he even shares a blurry picture to prove it), that co-writer Evan Goldberg's brother Dave drew all the dicks you see in the film and that the MPAA told them they were the first movie to ever say "fingerf**k".

Now there's a claim to fame.

Read on to find out more tidbits about the film, as shared by Seth:

As for a sequel? Well, don't get your hopes up.

Speaking last year, Seth revealed why there hasn't been a sequel to the 2007 hit film – and why there probably won't ever be one either.

"To us, it was such a personal story," he told Cinema Blend. "It was about us, and there was just no… So what? Now the next one is about how we're going to college?

"But we didn't go to college together. I didn't go to college. It seemed very inorganic, but that was the only reason, really."
