My 50 Favorite Flicks • #2

THE #2 MOVIE ON THE LIST IS HERE!  AND TO NO ONE’S SURPRISE…

Clerks. (1994)
2
Yes, my second favorite movie is clerks.  Go ahead say what you will, but this movie has heart and soul behind it.  It has a voice, a true voice that I was on the same level as.  I first saw this movie very young in 1996 when my friend Pete borrowed a copy from his brother. This may have increased my vulgar vocabulary by years in advance, but we loved it.  As I got older, I related to things in it that were going on with me.  Dealing with annoying customers, girlfriends, people not having common sense.  This movie pulls no punches in calling out all the jackesses that piss us off on a daily basis.  I liked parts of clerks 2, but felt it was missing that hard edge that made this one so real and fresh.  I do however look forward to clerks 3 and seeing all these great characters come back.
