Clerks 2
Amazing movie. It was just what I needed after the craptacular movies I was looking forward to. Like Superman, Pirates, etc. Clerks 2 gave me doubts, but after seing it, it was what I hoped for. Fast paced dialogue, pop culture references out the wazoo, and an amazing thing that Clerks 1 didnt have? A real heartfelt, sensative side. Smith learned something from jersey Girl, how to make the jokes, but keep some heart, jerk a tear.
Randal (Jeff Anderson) is amazing, his best performance yet. Brian o'Halloran has been better, and less CHUD like. I recommend this flick, before all other summer POS flicks. One thing that may bother people? the Spoiler:

I loved the movie. I'm glad Kevin Smith is learning how to make his movies better.

I just saw it today too. I can't believe Kevin has matured so much as a director! It was touching (in a totally heterosexual way), but it still made with the funny. I hope to see a million inside-jokes in the deleted scenes when I get the DVD. Both Scott Mosier and Ethan Suplee were present, but the Willam-of-two-worlds joke wasn't used. Was Mr. Smith unaware of the instant classic that is Superman Returns out right now?? I hope the story doesn't end there though...

They said a long time ago that Jay and Silent Bob will be back... If 'Jay' stays sober and clean for 5 years, we get more Jay and Silent Bob.

Well, Smith had said numerous times that the Askewverse/Jersey Shore chronicles were over. That was in Dogma....Then again after JASBSB....Then they came back....And so they'll come again, and plus the cartoon movie.

They were supposed to be working on the cartoon movie (in black & white) until they just decided to make it a live-action sequel that they were planning to call 'Passion of the Clerks'. The black & white animated flick was supposed to be Dante & Randal making a low-budget documentary of them working at the QuickStop. It was called 'Clerks: Sellout'. Just a guess, but the comic turned toon that they made for the 10th anniversary DVD was probably supposed to be in the 'toon movie. I know my View Askew trivia.
You best be believin I know my Evil Dead trivia too... everything up to the videogames anyway.

I thought it was alright. The whole racial slur thing just didn't work. I've never heard that term in my life and it seemed like no one in the theatre did either, as it was dead quiet during that part. Probably a Canada thing.
I didn't really laugh all that much, as nothing really came out as super funny to me. It got a couple laughs from the theatre, though. |
