Superbad Sequel or a Superbad/Pineapple Express Hybrid?

It looks like Michael Cera (or maybe someone pretending to be Michael Cera) has been thinking "aloud" (or via Twitter) about future Superbad projects. He first twittered that he wants to do a movie with Jonah Hill and Jason Bateman (ending with the words: "Good idea?!"), and then he followed up with this one: Decided I'm gonna contact Jonah and Jason tomorrow.
