finding nobody · 07.22.2006, 12:44 AM

LifeDistortion · 07.22.2006, 01:07 AM

Is it as good or better then "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back"?

schizophrenicroom · 07.22.2006, 03:05 AM

glad to hear it was good. i've been so excited for it. clerks is one of my all-time favorites. i think i'm seeing it in the next few days.

Clerks wasn't bad, but I must say, I'm not at all big on Kevin Smith. Overly lauded direction that started out bland, and simply progressed to bland and stylized.

The Jay & Silent Bob gimmick was funny in Clerks; after 87 movies, it begins to wear thin.

Toilet & Bowels · 07.22.2006, 08:44 AM

yeah. and there's an over riding sense of smugness and self-satisfaction in kevin smith films.

jon boy · 07.22.2006, 09:06 AM

i really get annoyed by silent bob and jay. well just the twats that copy them or are like them in real life.

yeah, i suppose there is a jay and silent bob in every town, and my town's "jay and silent bob" are two total twats!... so whats a chap to think?

I've never been a huge Kevin Smith fan. His films just have a certain vibe that I just don't relate with I guess.

I would say it was better than Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

In Clerks II, Jay and Silent Bob are not as prominent as they were in other Kevin Smith movies. They are important in the movie in the same way they are important in the first Clerks.

The color film makes sense with the movie, as well as most of the soundtrack (although not as good as the original Clerks soundtrack, I was hoping Olaf would make an appearance.)

The message in the movie is a bit more fulfilling than "shit or get off the pot."

I'd say I'm more of a Clerks fan than a Kevin Smith fan. I don't praise everything that Kevin Smith does, but I really, really love Clerks, and I found Clerks II lives up to it.

I do hope an unrated version or extended version gets released. I'd really love to see Randall pissing off customers more.

afterthefact · 07.22.2006, 11:54 AM

I've seen a lot of Kevin Smith stuff, and like I said, I'm not a huge fan, but I've actually never seen Clerks. My mom rented it when it came out, but I never watched it.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 07.22.2006, 12:03 PM

You have to watch Clerks. It is his best movie.

afterthefact · 07.22.2006, 12:14 PM

I think I will give it a shot...

screamingskull · 07.22.2006, 12:44 PM

i saw a clip of it on the Conan O'Brian show, its looks pretty lame from what i saw, but if all you guys think its great then i will give it a look when it comes out over here!

noisemachine · 07.22.2006, 01:01 PM

Clerks is great. I can't wait to see Clerks 2 which should be very soon. I enjoyed all the Kevin Smith movies with the exception of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Hopefully this is much better.

Alex's Trip · 07.22.2006, 01:16 PM

Kevin Smith is on the Henry Rollins show tonight...

I want to see this movie soon. I'm afraid it is going to suck shit, but I really have hope that it is going to be better than JASBSB, or better than Dogma...

nomadicfollower · 07.22.2006, 01:18 PM

Saw part of one of Jay and Silent Bob's movies, or one they were in. In the particular scene they were shooting some sci-fi movie scene....anyway, I was bored and turned it off.
