luke-o Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 Only 16 Days to go! Anyone else as excited as me?
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 Jesus! Are you serious? This movie's gotten about as much publicity/marketing as the first one..
luke-o Posted July 5, 2006 Author Report Posted July 5, 2006 Thats cause its all net poublicity. Kevs really pushing this picture on myspace and on the clerks II webiste. check out a few of the posters on my myspace pages http://www.myspace.com/luke_o2k
Guest Skironox Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 I've seen commercials every 20 minutes on Spike and USA during RAW. I hear the commercials aren't representative of the movie, but they still look quite terrible, and I'm fearing this. We shall see.
Sideburnious Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 Shit, this better come out in Europe soon.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 I saw my first preview a day or two ago. Didn't get a good vibe. Hopefully I'm proven wrong.
FroGG_NeaL Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 I'm looking forward to this. I'll probably be dissapointed, but fuck it.
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 from the trailer I remember seeing some time ago, this has more of a Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back feeling than the original Clerks. That's gotta be disappointing, but just seeing the old gang again would be fun.
Golgo 13 Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 OMGOD SHOULDA BEEN IN BLACK AND WHITE Now the thread is official.
luke-o Posted July 6, 2006 Author Report Posted July 6, 2006 OMGOD SHOULDA BEEN IN BLACK AND WHITE Now the thread is official. Yeah thanks for that. Im so sick of hearing that on IMDB, that and "ZOMG THIS IS TEH SUCK!!!11! KEVIN SMITH IS A SEELOUT!!11! LOLZ!!11!!" etc etc. As for the trailers, i really like them, the Jay and Bob stuff does look like JASBSB but all the Dante and Randall stuff sounds like the orginal. And lets face it, were al goin to this film to see Dante and Randall. Shit, this better come out in Europe soon. I think its actually a world wide release, at least thats what i was told.
the max Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 My girlfriend's reaction could best be described as "lukewarm" for this, so I'll probably see it by myself. I'll make sure to watch Clerks before I go as well, so I can get into full snob mode for this.
razazteca Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 As for the trailers, i really like them, the Jay and Bob stuff does look like JASBSB but all the Dante and Randall stuff sounds like the orginal. And lets face it, were al goin to this film to see Dante and Randall. To watch them argue over Star Wars again?
Ravenbomb Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 But they argue about Lord of the Rings, too! I'll probably go see it. Not the day it comes out or anything, but I'll still go see it
luke-o Posted July 7, 2006 Author Report Posted July 7, 2006 To watch them argue over Star Wars again? Why not?
Dr. Zaius Posted July 7, 2006 Report Posted July 7, 2006 It all depends on the reviews. If you need reviews to tell you to see a Kevin Smith movie, then you'll probably never see a Kevin Smith movie.
luke-o Posted July 9, 2006 Author Report Posted July 9, 2006 If you need reviews to tell you to see a Kevin Smith movie, then you'll probably never see a Kevin Smith movie. Comment of the thread.
Mole Posted July 9, 2006 Report Posted July 9, 2006 It all depends on the reviews. If you need reviews to tell you to see a Kevin Smith movie, then you'll probably never see a Kevin Smith movie. Yeah, especially since the first Clerks wasn't liked by the critics...
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted July 9, 2006 Report Posted July 9, 2006 I'm looking forward to the sequel to Smith's only good movie.
Guest Askewniverse Posted July 9, 2006 Report Posted July 9, 2006 I'm definitely going to see it opening day, and at least once more after the in-theater commentary track is made available. I'm looking forward to the sequel to Smith's only good movie. What about Chasing Amy?
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 10, 2006 Report Posted July 10, 2006 Mallrats was great. I don't care much for Chasing Amy.
BorneAgain Posted July 10, 2006 Report Posted July 10, 2006 Mallrats was great. I don't care much for Chasing Amy. I thought Dogma was on par with Chasing Amy personally, both right behind Clerks.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted July 10, 2006 Report Posted July 10, 2006 Mallrats was fun when I was younger and WAS a mallrat and a big comic geek. Now I find it really poorly done, horrible script, and kinda embarassing to watch with anyone. Chasing Amy's cute at times, but really slow, overly sappy, and really misses the boat on some oppurtunities. A lot of funny shit is cut from it, IMO, from a script I got from Smith's comic store. It WAS my favorite but it's too forced at times. Dogma and JASBSB are both shit, IMO. Morris Day and the Time for your big send off to the Askewniverse? Morris Day? Kill yourself. Clerks is so unintentionally funny (although it has its flaws) that I'm really worried Smith is gonna screw this one up by intentionally trying to create unintentional humor, if you can understand that, and coming off flat or corny. Still, more can relate to it than his other works, and its by far his best, if not most spectacular, film, to me.

Black Lushus Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 I gotta admit, I'm not super-psyched to see this...and I love Kevin Smith flicks.
bobobrazil1984 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 the commercials for this movie look awful. Like, really bad.
BlackFlagg Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Maybe that's a good thing, I mean, how many times have ya seen a kick ass trailer for a movie that ended up being total crap
Special K Posted July 11, 2006 Report Posted July 11, 2006 Yeah, especially since the first Clerks wasn't liked by the critics... Yeah, I went and saw that movie exclusively because of the massive, massive hype and positivity it got. Just checked it out on RT, it got 85%. That's crazy for a nerdy, dirty comedy. I love that movie. I'm hoping that the Clerks II trailers suck because they can't show any of the good parts. And while I'd say Clerks is his best, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and even Dogma and J&SB have their good parts. I mean, come one! Banky! With J&SB, I thought it was pretty funny the first time, but I don't think I could handle a second. A little Jay goes a long way.
