Fans' hilarious comments on the revelation of Seth Rogen about Jonah Hill's character and Sony PlayStation
Because Seth Rogen revealed that Sony did not want their PS2 to be part of the film, fans poked fun at Sony, saying that it's a missed opportunity because if they let the character Seth used their console, they could have sold MORE PlayStations!

"He is to vile of a character to play our platform, which GTA is available on." - another fan replied (via X/@bigolemrknish)
Some fans also roasted Sony PlayStation, commenting that it's too bad they were in the "family-friendly" era when Superbad was released.
"Remember when companies cared about being family friendly?" - another fan reminded (via X/Sarx88)
Fans also cajoled Sony PlayStation, saying that they should've let Superbad's Seth play their console so that they will be part of the movie's cultural significance—especially to millennials.
"Sony should've let Jonah Hill play with his PS2." - another fan remarked (via X/@DurkJeeter)

Why did Sony PlayStation reject Seth Rogen's request?
Now that Seth Rogen revealed that Sony doesn't want their console to be part of their film, the question in your mind must be: why did Sony reject his request?
Well, it seems like it all stemmed down to the era of Superbad. When the film was released, companies were hell bent on making their brands "family-friendly" and Rated G, so when Superbad was released during that period, they saw that the film might somewhat be a bad influence on the young ones. In addition, Jonah Hill's character, Seth, was so rude and bad in Sony's eyes that as a compromise, they let Michael Cera's character, Evan, play their console!

Seth Rogen's revelation about Sony PlayStation in Superbad is so funny and somewhat surprising because it's quite ironic that the console finds one of the characters vile, but they have video games that are graphic and have multiple vile villains too.
