I doubt it will, but I'm always down for more Jay and Silent Bob. Snootchie Bootchies, dodints.

[dodint]

I'm a fan of the franchise, it came about at just the right age for me. JSBSB has always been the least enjoyable by a long shot. Simian sight gags and WF are two of the least unfunny things in the world so it didn't stand much of a chance for me.

[NTP66]

Least unfunny? So you loved it?

I'm up unusually early this morning. Expect rampant incoherence.

I was big into View Askew and I even liked a few of Smith's films outside of the "Askewniverse" such as Zack and Miri and Red State. Lately Kevin Smith is much better talker than he is filmmaker. Or maybe that's always been the case... I'd much rather listen to a two hour Smodcast than watch **** Yoga Hosers.

I hope J&SBGAR is built on a solid story and not TOO meta. For example, if it's filled with heart attack and vegan jokes, it's going to get real annoying. Oh and go ahead and cast Jason Lee in a lead role, please.

Clerks will still always hold a special place for me. I was Randall at one point in my life pretty much. haha.

I still think Chasing Amy is his best overall film even if it's not the funniest.

[NTP66]

Chasing Amy was awesome. And yes to Jason Lee in a lead.

[dodint]

Dogma is more fun to watch but Chasing Amy is probably the better overall film.

[skullman80]

Part of Dogma was filmed in my home town(New kensington). I was in 8th grade but got to meet Jay and he signed a piece of cardboard for me that I still have to this day.

Chasing Amy will always be my favorite Kevin Smith film because of the Jaws homage.

[dodint]

Always on brand.

It is a good scene.

[nocera]

Chasing Amy also has what's probably the most realistic breakup scene I had ever seen. I'm sure there's one that has topped it since then, but at the time it blew my mind because of how real it felt.

NSFW for language. Duh.


Sidenote: Shannon Hamilton, the guy who videotaped their sex and broadcasted in on the campus cable station? That's Ben Affleck's character in Mallrats... the one who wants to **** Rene in a very uncomfortable place. (What like the back of a Volkswagen?)

[Freddy Rumsen]

The explanation about lesbians in Chasing Amy and may be the greatest scene I've ever witnessed on film.

Also I really enjoy the TV show Comic Book Men that he does.

[tifosi77]

I still maintain that perhaps the coolest thing I have ever seen was at Smith's Smodcastle in LA. He presented a screening of the Jaws documentary "The Shark Is Still Working", and in the screening room he had a 1:1 scale engineering blueprint of Bruce the mechanical shark. 26' long on the left side wall of the room. So good.

Re: Once Upon a Deadpool. I had to look up what that was and looks like it's just a PG-13 cut of Deadpool 2 with some extra footage where Deadpool reads the story to Fred Savage a la Princess Bride. For every ticket sold, they will donate a dollar to a charity called Fudge Cancer.

[eddy]

Sorry to bother you is probably the best movie I've seen all year.

I have no idea where to put this, but it’s Jeff Goldblum eating vegan hot wings and discussing his life on the season 6 finale of Hot Ones. So odd, I couldn’t look away and an Isaly’s shoutout.

I'd also like to add that Tessa Thompson is sexy

It’s about 30 minutes long, but I couldn’t stop watching

[NTP66]

I plan on watching it later, but the episode with Alton Brown was a good one, too. Paging @tifosi77

[tifosi77]

The Key and Peele episode was fun, too.

Replace Thompson with Fowler

[eddy]

Forty years after Ralph Bakshi's animated classic hit theaters, the filmmaker recalls courting Mick Jagger and Led Zeppelin, and speaks candidly about the extreme pressure he was under: "I nearly died."
