the only reason Clerks was even in black and white was because Kevin, Mosier, and Dave didn't want to worry about color temperature and lighting in an already cramped environment.

Some people feel that by adding color is loses the "feeling" of the original.

Ofcourse some people are idiots.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

While Lucas was did have some of the ideas for Empire in place while making Star Wars (it wasn't ANH until it was rereleased in 1981), it was still then unknown if Empire would ever be made. It wasn't a "planned" Trilogy (ala LOTR), it counts.

Empire Strikes Back

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Of course I was exaggerating, but I am very weary about sequels on a whole, there have been more bad than good, I must say. Also the thing I really meant to say "the sequel is never as good as the original". I didn't mean to say that all sequels suck. The fault is mine, I suppose.

PS: Very interesting about the Star Wars thing. Didn't know that either.

No, it took me a few minutes and a look at my DVD collection.

I just know more about movies than you do.

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

Do we need it? No, not at all.

Smith has been toying with the idea of a Clerks sequel for quite some time (he said it would be his next film after Dogma [1999], so at bare minimum 7 years). After Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, he said he was done with the Jersey movies. That was it.

Since then he made a promise to Jason Mewes that if he got, and kept, himself clean he could play Jay one more time. He also remembered why he loved the characters so much when he was working on the Clerks 10th Anniversay disc.

He doesn't have to make this movie at all. It'll be a moderate success, probably make back it's costs but not a whole lot more. It's hardly going to be the box office smash of the summer.
