Default PotC:3 or Superbad

Alright, I have given myself an allowance of one Blu-Ray title this week (will be grabbing a ton next week)... so, which should I get?

I have not seen either of these movies, but enjoyed the first 2 Pirates moves and also love all things Apatow (Freaks and Geeks, Knocked Up, Office Space).

Any opinions? I realize they are two completely different types of movies. I'm leaning towards pirates, just because I'm sure it will be more of a showcase for others... but which has more entertainment value?

Both!!! Well, since you can only choose one I'd go with POTC since it's supposed to be a perfect video transfer as well as a killer pcm soundtrack. You'll enjoy the experience of watching it alot more than superbad.

I actually haven't seen Pirates yet but i'd go for that instead of Superbad, special effects in blu over a comedy movie with not so great directing, personly I only laughed a few times on Superbad, it wasn't really that good in my opinion so its a pass for me.

I didn't like the ending all that much on POTC3. But will not discuss it here cause of spoilers.

I preferred Superbad, but POTC 3 will look more impressive.

PotC 3, especially if you already own the other two. Might as well complete the trilogy. Superbad (a movie obviously lacking in special effects) isn't necessarily a must-have movie in high def. I could get by just getting the DVD, but that's just me.
