McLovin of Hawaii

June 24th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Pop Culture

We caught the trailer to Judd Apatow’s next film, “Superbad,” when we slipped out to see his current release, “Knocked Up.” Which was brilliant. But the “Superbad” trailer — in addition to promising another winner — also included a wonderful Aloha State shoutout.

McLovin

One of the characters gets a fake ID, and the issuing state is Hawaii.

“McLovin” is his chosen name, whom a friend incredulously describes as “a 25-year-old Hawaiian organ donor.” Even better, the address block on the Hawaii driver’s license reads:

McLovin
892 Momona St.
Honolulu, HI 96820

“Momona” being the Hawaiian word for “fat.” No doubt someone on the writing staff found a Hawaiian dictionary for that subtle gag. And no, there is no Momona Street in Honolulu. There is a Momona Place in Waianae, though.

Check out the official trailer here.
