Clerks 2
Kevin Smith will never be a great filmmaker, but he's certainly getting better at being a bad one. His latest opus (and these opuses are becoming opusier every opus), Clerks II, feels like a graduate thesis on Askew filmmaking. There's a "look how much we've learned / how far we've come!" vibe about Clerks II that makes it likeable; if there are too many faults to make it loveable, then at least rest assured that Smith's slacker mojo remains intact.
