Kevin Smith went the way of George Lucas. And I don't mean he's gotten better with age. Jersey Girl has so much child nudity that sex offenders should have been prohibited from watching it.
Does anyone actually care about this movie?

I mean...I'm a huge Clerks and Clerks 2 fan, and I like most of his other movies, but people are loving this movie before knowing anything about it...I'll reserve my opinion until I actually see the damn thing.
I don't know why anyone but Smith diehards would care

I mean talk about preaching the the choir. The posted a few pages from the script in an issue of Entertainment Weekly and at this point he might as well just title everything he does "Yet Another Kevin Smith Movie". It's really become that standard and blase. I can't imagine anyone would get excited after the dismal and at times awkwardly bad Clerks 2.
Yes I care.

I also care about Rogen's career choice. Elizabeth Banks I get. Rogen... not so much. Kevin Smith must have pictures of him fucking Jonah Hill to pull this off.

Are the Kevin Smith days really over? Personally, I like Clerks 2 very much, and wish he would stop acting and nearly singlehandedly sinking movies like Die Hard 4.
I care too

Yes, I could be characterized as a Kevin Smith diehard, but I think it's a tad bit wrong to act as though this is a movie that no one cares about. Yes, it probably has few interested parties outside of Kevin Smith fans and (now) Seth Rogen fans, but there are an awful lot of both who frequent this site. Personally, I have loved (to varying degrees) everything Smith has done, including Jersey Girl which, while a generic romantic comedy/father-daughter movie, was still one of the best of that type I have seen. I also think Smith knocked one out of the park with Clerks II and I cannot wait to see what he has to follow it up. As for Smith giving up on job, the only one he ever did that with was "Green Arrow", which he did because he doubted his abilities to shoot action scenes. The only other project he was attached to that he dropped out of was "Fletch Won" and that was because he couldn't cast Jason Lee in the title role like he wanted since he was yet to attain mainstream popularity with "My Name is Earl. Both happened prior to the release of Clerks II though, so I don't see how anyone could think that he had given up directing.

Xiphos, if humor detector repair is only a buck, maybe you can buy yourself an adult sized penis for just a buck fifty. I'm not sure how anyone could enjoy the Jay and Silent Bob movie more than Clerks II. I liked Mall Rats a lot, too.

Any Kevin Smith related article brings the haters out of the woodwork but I don't know how people who enjoy the Judd Apatow comedies--anyone with any sense of humor, in other words--can't be intrigued about this, if not flat-out excited. I think this has a ton of potential to be great and it will certainly be Smith's biggest commercial success to date.

on this TB so far forget about Dogma?? Say what you want about all his other movies but Dogma is classic and hands down his best work. Hopefully Rogan and smith will make a good team. Smith's movies are far funnier then Aptows work, and yeah he is full of himself but he has a right to be and he is funny.
Yeah Dogma is pretty terrific

A genuinely excellent film. Chasing Amy is pretty good too. But the more time that goes on the more I think those days are in the past. He's also proven he has some classically awful taste with endorsements of movies like Daredevil.

Kevin Smith has clearly jumped on the Apatow bandwagon!
by TheHorror
Nov 16th, 2007
03:49:28 AM
I love Apatow comedies and I think KS is OK but one of Smnith's traits is using the same "family" of actors, much like Apatow. Looks like he's sold that down the river and is trying to preach to the mainstream, it's a little sad if you ask me. Instead of branching out and doing something different he's leaching on and doing more of the same...and he's fat.
Not even remotely excited about this

Jersey Girl blew and Clerks 2 was shit. Now we're stooping to "hilarious" gags about porn. This has been done before. BORING, Kevin. Make Red State or make nothing.
Yeah hes jumping the apatow bandwagon..

But really afflecks career as an actor is almost dead,jason lee's too busy being earl and both jeff anderson and brian o halloran are pretty much type casted as randall and dante.Why shouldnt kevin be going for seth,he'll fit in perfect for this flick.His hopefully next flick Red State will be something completely different.

by filmcoyote
Nov 16th, 2007
04:57:02 AM
I want to be excited about this. Banks is gorgeous, funny and about the only one who walked away from Spider-Man 3 with any dignity intact. Rogen is awkward and forced in person (trust me) but gold on screen and i'm excited for anything he is tied to in a starring or writing capacity. I hope this is a return to his Clerks, Chasing Amy, Dogma greatness for Smith, but as much as i loved those films, and enjoyed Mallrats and, from a certain base point of view Jay & Bob, Clerks 2 was embarrassingly awful. The only emotion that occurred to me while watching it was pity. It was woeful. Come on Kev, give us a great one again.
Script looked terrible
by theBigE
Nov 16th, 2007
05:24:07 AM
The posted script on EW.com made me yawn. Smith says "we'll make people use dialouge that they actually use in real life!" Kevin, nobody says "fuck" in real life as much as you and your actors do. Unless they are unemployed, or work construction, or are slumming through junior college, living in mom's basement. Or living in Hollywood. You're nearly 40 years old, man. Junior high was 25 years ago.
Elias in Clerks 2 equivalent to Jarjar in Phantom Menace
by GCH888
Nov 16th, 2007
05:37:28 AM
Clerks 2 definitely wasn't his best although it could've been a lot worse. The final shot when it reverts back to black and white and we see the "milk lady" was a reminder of how great Clerks was. It's reminiscent of the ending of Revenge of the Sith where we saw the Death Star and Tarkin and all those other scenes which were from the original Star Wars. However the main problem with Clerks 2 was it had it's very own Jarjar Binks in the form of Elias. It's apparent in the DVD commentary that Kevin Smith still considers Elias a great character much the same way George Lucas though Jarjar was a brilliant idea. However I just felt that Elias just took screen time away from Dante and Randal. Also Kevin needs to stop casting his wife in his films. No disrespect but her appearance reminded me of Sofia Coppola in Godfather 3. What's even more scary is the fact that she could've ended up playing Rosario Dawson's character had Rosario turned down the role.

Anyone making a movie called "Zack & Miri make a Porno" featuring these two actors gets my full attention and money. I re-watched Slither yesterday which i enjoyed even harder the 2'nd time around (also watch those deleted scenes, everything with Michael Rooker that got left out is golden) and Banks is just great in that. And sheesh, is that girl easy on the eyes or what.

...seems to be the sport of choice in this talkback. Ah...never seen the point of responding negatively to something I don't care about - it's kind of like responding 'I have no opinion' to a poll on IMDB. Just weird. As for Zack & Miri - can't wait. I know exactly what I'm in for with a Kevin Smith flick. He brings the funny, I bring the double buttered popcorn. Disappointed that Jason Bateman's not showing up as he was rumoured to have been approached but ah well.

Hotness is still hotness...just because she is surrounded by less hotness does not mean her hotness is a result of the non-hotness around her. The star burns more brightly, but it still burns. Like my loins for instance.

just as Jersey Girl sort of rehashed Gigli, this bad boy's going to be a rehash of Knocked Up.

The guy is really funny and personable in real life, most of his movies are brilliant, and the ones that aren't are still pretty good. His dialogue sounds like a lot of foulmouthed people I know. I didn't like Jersey Girl, but I think he learned a big leason from that. I think he's went on record saying he won't direct another movie that he wouldn't like seeing. I can understand this not being your cup of tea, but why the hate?

Normal people have seen his movies, it's not just us. And why all the hate? Does he make provocative movies that make you think and discuss life? No, he just makes some entertaining movies. That's just my opinion. But even after I put this out there, it does seem as if he's trying to get that Apatow type hit with this one. Could be iffy, I'll wait to see some footage before I say anything though.

It was great. He was like "Hey Mr. Smith. So, do you plan on making a good movie with original characters that doesn't suck?" Followed by Kevin Smith making fun of the guy for being fat or something. It was great. Kevin Smith is a fucking hack. If he didn't have that Jay guy in his movies, they would be just fucking atrocious. The dialog he writes, I mean, I don't understand, why does he have a fanbase?
