This is often a point of debate among my friends and I. I just wanted to see what the rest of humanity thinks.
I personally think Mallrats is the best one, because it has good dialogue and is probably the funniest. Plus it has Stan Lee.

Ditto, I love the bit where Loki kills the Mooby board of directors "You're a pure soul, you've lived a good life...but you didn't say god bless you when I sneezed!"

That's why it's in quotes. Besides, the Hitchhiker's trilogy is five books.

Jay and Silent Bob rocks the house, Mallrats just stinks.

Its a toss up between Dogma and Mallrats, but I'll vote Dogma becuase it won the coin toss(I literally tossed a coin for it).

Clerks. First is always the best. And Randall's the fucking shit.

Chasing Amy. Just for the "Darth Vader is the blackest brother in the galaxy" spiel by the gay African-American pretending to be a neo-black panther for his fans.

I've gotta say Clerks as well, and also because of Randall. J&SBSB is a close second.

That was the single greatest scene from ANY movie
Chasing Amy wrote:
HOOPER
Fuck Lando Calrissian! Uncle Tom
nigger! Always some white boy gotta
invoke the holy trilogy'! Bust this -
those movies are about how the white
man keeps the brother man down - even
in a galaxy far, far away. Check
this shit. You got cracker farm-boy
Luke Skywalker, Nazi poster boy -
blond hair, blue eyes.
And then you've got Darth
Vader: the blackest brother in the
galaxy. Nubian God.
BANKY
What's a Nubian?
HOOPER
Shut the fuck up! Now Vader, he's a
spiritual brother, with the force and
all that shit. Then this cracker
Skywalker gets his hands on a light-
saber, and the boy decides he's
gonna run the fucking universe - gets
a whole Klan of whites together, and
they're gonna bust up Vader's hood
the Death Star. Now what the fuck do
you call that!
BANKY
Intergalactic Civil War!
HOOPER
Gentrification. They're gonna drive
our the black element, to make the
galaxy quote, unquote safe' for white
folks.
I say
Chasing Amy too, but
Clerks is a close second.

That's a good quote. Man, it's been awhile since I've watched "Amy" or "Clerks." I pick "Clerks," by the way. Original is usually the best, besides I can't stand "Dogma" or "J&SBSB."

In order, for me:
Mallrats
Dogma
Clerks
Chasing Amy
J&SBSB
With a rather big gap between Clerks and Amy. Just didn't like the RomCom, and J&SB was just a string of injokes.

Clerks. Randall reminds me too much of a friend of mine, so I crack up a bit more seeing Randall in action.
Mallrats and Dogma(the board room scene) were okay, but had points that were just bleh.
Chasing Amy was funny until the main character became dumber then a brick...Lando scene was worth it.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was a great culmination but requires pre cursory knowledge.

I've only seen Mallrats and Clerks, and I liked Mallrats a whole lot better.
Incidentally, if you combine Randal and Brodie, you basically kind of end up with Utsanomiko.

Clerks. J&SBSB was the worst.

I have Jay & Silent Bob. It's one of my favourite movies. I haven't seen Clerks or Chasing Amy. Dogma and Mallrats are fucking hillarious, but I still have to stand by J&SB
Say what you want SHEEP FUCKER!!!

I love them all, if you crossed Mallrats with Spaced, you'd have me as a series/film hybrid thing.
So... Mallrats, J&SBSB, Chasing Amy (seemed unusually honest, for a film), Dogma, not seen Clerks yet.

Haven't seen Clerks or Chasing Amy, so out of the three i have seen i'll have to go with jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. It doesn't have much of a plot but it does have one brillinat set piece after another and Eliza Dushku (sp, that chick that played Faith in Buffy) in a cat suit!
And Good Will Hunting 2 is one of my most looked forward to sequels

Chasing Amy is definitely the best of them. The simple fact that it's a damn honest movie and is still funny as hell. I've never watched a love story so well done and entertaining. It's the best of the movies.
And of course Banky has some of the best one-liners ever:
Banky Edwards: All every woman really wants, be it mother, senator, nun, is some serious deep-dickin'.
