Clerks 2 - The release date is almost here...

Recommended Posts

I'm more concerned with how much Randall and Dante have aged. It might seem weird seeing two guys in their now mid to late 30's still working at a convenience store.

 

Clerks was like 12 years ago.

Another reason the movie should've been made in black and white.

I thought I read Smith say that's the point of the movie. How some of his friends have changed a lot since their 20s while a lot have stayed very much the same.

Point of the movie = Jersey Girl was a tremendous bomb and Smith needed to make a movie someone might actually want to see.

 

Let's not kid ourselves here.

you may be on to something here...Smith may not be capable of making a movie outside of the Askiewniverse.

 

Personally, I'm surprised he hasn't done a superhero flick yet.

Wasn't Smith orignally supposed to do Superman, but the studio hated his script (or am I completely off base)?

 

I actually thought Jersey Girl wasn't a bad movie.

I actually think Jersey Girl is his most complete film. The peformanxes are there, the writing was good and it looked better than any of the previous Smith flicks. It bombed becuase half of his audience are, frankly, the kind of people who think Jay is the funniest human on the planet; people, for whatever reason, hate Ben Affleck; and becuase of the whole "Bennifer" thing.

Jersey Girl was surprisingly good. I thought it was going to be a romantic comedy, but was more about Affleck and his daughter, which hasn't been over done like the romantic comedy thing.

Jersey Girl wasn't a horrible film, but it wasn't really GOOD either. It was the exact sort of film that Smith's fanbase doesn't want to see from him. Hell, it's the sort of film he himself would have ridiculed 10 years ago. It's pretty much the definition of a ** type movie.

wrong.

 

smith is doing this bacuse after he made clerks x dvd, he feel in love with the characters all over again and wanted to see them brought to life. bearing in mind, he had planned to do clerks 2 after he did dogma, so we cant say that jersey girl was a bomb.

 

On the subject of Jersey Girl, i didnt think it was too bad. It seemed to be quiet a complete movie, but the whole bennifer thing fucked it all up.
