You, when you said that there has never been a good sequel ever.
"Good" (From your words) which is a term to denote amount or having instristic elements of quality in this case. It could also mean as opposing to evil or something that is enjoyable.

I don't care how good a movie is made and how well it looks.

...Getting back to Clerks 2, was there any real reason Kevin Smith dropped the "The Passion of the Clerk" subtitle or was it just easier to say "Clerks 2"? I almost want to see it in color this time, but I also want to see it in B&W like the original. Maybe if it were to pull a Sin City and have only certain elements in the film in color, unimportant stuff like store merchandise or whatever... just to fuck with the audience or something.

How ya doing, buddy?

You left some things unanswered, specifically the part I said "what" to, Because it still needs some sort of explanation.

Just read a little bit more up, shouldn't be that much of a struggle, even for you... yup, right up. Right there. You got it.

If you are referring to you editing your statements (As you said in the first quote in this post), they appear the same as when I quoted them, as I just looked right now.

Otherwise I have no clue what you're trying to infer, please be less vauge.

Well, I thought it was good, but strike it from your mental list if you'd like. I will admit it wasn't a superior sequel, but it was a good film nonetheless. Besides, you can't duplicate that kind (in 2001: ASO) of filming technique so easily.

--edit--
Well you're right. I did enjoy the film and it was a good movie but it needs not to be on the list.
I shall strike that out digitally (As opposed to mentally )

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Alright, that's perfectly fine. It was just you were all like "zomg no good sequels EVER. final judgement 4 eternity on this topic!". Then everyone was like
"O RLY?" and you were all "YA RLY" and then they were like "EXAMPLES!"
and you were "DO NOT WANT".

I thought he did it in B&W because it was cheaper... but I guess not since,

And he won't do it in B&W because A, he didn't want for the sequel to be the SAME, visually and B, it would cost a whole lot of money to have it transfered in B&W.

Since apparently it costs MORE to do without color.

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

Oohh... ok that would make more since since I initally thought that...

shooting in Black and White is cheaper

but I thought the previous member said something about the fact that it'd cool if there would be a version of the movie where it'd be in B&W and then some objects or parts of the Backgrounds would be in color. THAT would cost a bit more.

Yeah I think I said that (Maybe someone else did too). From what I understand for Sin City's production was that hey filmed it in color, made it digitally B&W (Where some enviroments are just B&W naturally and others have a distinct 'pure' black overlay)and then RE-Colored parts deemed uh... needing color.

I was just saying that it would be a nice effect to have the movie use certain objects or even people in color since he will (?) be shooting Clerks 2 in B&W. If cost is an big issue then I guess not huh? :laugh:

Most amazing jew boots

Oooh, nice approach. I wanna see it more now, even just for that part

I was speaking idiomatically.
