Is Superbad one of the 250 best films of all time? No. Is it simply a "dick joke" movie? Absolutely not. There is plenty of whit and cleverness behind it, and anyone who has experienced public high school--actually, anyone who doesn't share a heart with Satan and has an ounce of humor in their body--can enjoy it. Most American comedies are absolute shit, and throw around dumb fart jokes and follow it up with little intelligence. But immaturity isn't necessarily a bad thing--immaturity can be a great thing if accompanied by clever satire and intelligence... And Superbad had all of those things.

But then again, is The Godfather one of the five best films of all time? Probably not. It may be one of your favorite films of all time, but on a massive grading scale of every film ever made, it's lucky to be in the top 20.

"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."
