Clerks 2! ...they still don't like you.

The animated series had the potential to be a suitable Family Guy replacement. They just never gave it enough time to live up to its potential. Blasphemy!

Needless to say, I am pumped about this movie, and even more since I no longer will have to choose between this and Snakes on a Plane on August 18th.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I kind of agree, but I say who cares as long as the movies are good. The only real flop (which I really liked) was Jersey Girl. All the others are fantastic in their own way, my personal fave being Chasing Amy.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Fixed! They moved it up a few weeks!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Be fair, the dumbfucks who like the Boondock Saints have no taste in film. I haven't met anyone around here who likes both of those flicks, and usually the ones who like Clerks are the more intelligent ones. Boondock Saints is what I like to call "the stupid person's Pulp Fiction" since it is a blatent cash-in on Pulp's success, and is easy to follow if you're one of those people who "don't get" Pulp Fiction.

I think Clerks is a good movie because I think it's bloody hilarious and I can connect with it because I've been working at a supermarket for 6 years. Plus, the success story behind it is pretty awesome. Guy risks it all on a gamble like Clerks and comes out successful as fuck? That's uplifting for an aspiring filmmaker like myself. Better than fuckholes like Michael Bay who probably got their start by simply knowing the right people.

I have to agree that the hype it gets from the countless IMDBlowhards is pretty overwhelming and has severely inflated Smith's ego... But eh, if anyone deserves it, it's him.

Stolen from my very own journal -

Wow, this film blew me away. I wasn't expecting it to be as funny as it was, and it delivered that in spades. I wasn't expecting it to be touching either, and it delivered that even more. I almost cried it was so good.

I don't have the energy to write an in-depth review, so I'll just give a handy bulleted list of what worked in the film.

- Funny as SHIT.
- Felt just like the original did. Didn't feel like a glossed over Hollywood movie.
- Felt like a logical continuation of the story of Dante and Randal.
- Great characters
- Very emotional story overall.
- Amazing conclusion.
- Jay and Silent Bob were great as usual.

I was really blown away by the ending of the film. Like Clerks before it, Clerks II is a film that I really connected with on many levels. The ending...

Spoiler:

With the help of Jay and Silent Bob, they decide to buy and re-open the Quick Stop. My only complaint is that it felt kind of forced the way Randal said it in the jail and then BOOM they go and do it, but it worked overall.

That would be my only complaint. Other than that, this film is fucking perfect. I was very impressed by it. Go see it NOW!

9/10

I was speaking idiomatically.
