I consider this type of comedy "dark" and these movies definitely tickle my funny bone. When I saw Clerks, released in 2000, I was charmed by its low budget black-and-white. The dialog is wonderfully clever. Viewers can follow Clerks II, in theaters now, quite well without having seen the first movie, but I honestly think half the enjoyment is missed if not seen in order. Clerks II revisits the same main characters, showing us what's happened since we've been gone.
Trivia question -- In Clerks, how many times throughout the course of the movie did Dante say, "I'm not even supposed to BE here today!"
Memorable quotes:
"My girlfriend sucked 37 d*cks!"
"In a row???"
"Cute cat. What's it's name?"
"Annoying customer."
"F*ck you, *sshole!"
"I hope it feels so good to be right. There's nothing more exhilarating than pointing out the shortcomings of others, is there."
"This job would be great if it wasn't for the f*cking customers."
