*ETA: both are great. So is American Pie (or was, it's not as funny if you weren't there in the moment). 80s teen comedies dropped when I was a yute, but I understand why they're valued so much by Gen X



I was just out of HS when American Pie came out, so I loved it, and it was awesome at the time.

Personally, I don't think it has aged anywhere near as well as Superbad is aging.

The biggest problem with American Pie is that, as a movie, it's pretty shitty. Terrible acting, directing, etc.

That's fine in the moment, but in retrospect it's relegated to stoner/grossout/sex comedy status.

It takes a very, very special movie to age well from those categories. Like Dude Where's my Car, Euro Trip, Road Trip, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, or the OG Harold and Kumar.
