Clerks went BERSERKER on The Truman Show and moves on to the next round.

This next round will be harder than getting laid in high school.

Superbad is a good movie.

Clerks is an all-time CLASSIC.

If you vote for Superbad, you are probably a terrorist.

I think Clerks is embraced by North Americans moreso than the rest of the world. Its good and all but yeah Superbad was funnier for me.

Yea but lets be honest, Superbad will be looked at similarly to Clerks in 10 years time. It's an instant comedy classic, and it has the rewatchability and quotable lines of Clerks.

It will probably be a similar movie to it's generation.

I love them both. Clerks has been around longer, naturally, but I'm not going to hold that against Superbad. I've watched it many times since it came out 2 years ago and it really never stops entertaining me.

I'll have to think about it

I don't know that Superbad will become a classic. It was a funny movie, but nothing about it was particularly groundbreaking. Judd Apatow's style is unique, but nothing happened in Superbad that didn't happen in 40-Year-Old Virgin or Knocked Up. He just changed the demographic a bit. If it does become a classic I think it would be because his entire body of work gets remembered in a similar light, sort of like John Hughes.

In a way, Kevin Smith is similar. His films don't necessarily break new ground every go round, but he does what he does well. I voted for Clerks because a) it's Smith's first and b) I think it's funnier than Superbad.

Have to go with superbad, that bad acting in clerks did it in for me. Clerks II > Superbad however.

Clerks!

I've not seen Superbad, but even if I had I doubt I'd enjoy it as much as Clerks.

I am in a huge minority here, but I was never a big fan of clerks.
