re: Superbad vs American Pie

I really don't think American Pie stands up, especially compared to Superbad. Really, who films a live sex tape for the entire school to watch him frick or is fricked up enough to frick a pie. This wasn't my high school experience.

Superbad though is somewhat filmed as a period piece and seems timeless. It's not reliant on pop culture at all. It felt like high school. Trying to get the chick by buying booze, only to be reliant on a guy you're reluctantly friends with to buy it with his fake ID. Riding with a shady a-hole you don't really know making awkward comments. Arriving at a trashy party almost getting your arse kicked. That was high school. The only thing that wasn't realistic about Superbad were the cops, and that's about it.
