I have said this before and realize it's an unpopular opinion, but anyone who remembers Clerks as a funny movie never watched it a second time. I hold no grudge against someone who watches it once and says "I laughed," because I did, but a second viewing of that movie is just intolerable. Ditto Better Off Dead. Maybe a second viewing when it's still 1985 and you're still on dope and in high school, but today, in 2009? You couldn't pay me to watch it. I'll quote it from memory, but I'll never want to watch it again. So it's in the same category as Clerks -- quotable doesn't equal funniest.
A good test is, would I pay $30 to get it on Blu-Ray? Many things on people's list, the answer is yes, but not Elf, not Clerks, not Better Off Dead.
