Sign me up. Kevin Smith was one of them nine reasons I became a movie nerd. I was the perfect age for Clerks, Chasin Amy, Dogma, etc. and will always have a soft b all for him. His most recent films have been unadulterated garbage, but I'm always in for more Jay and Silent Bob.

Smith's movie making ability tanked when he quit cigarettes and switched to pot. Seems like ever since he became a complete pothead his movies have gotten way worse in terms of plot and dialogue.

That being said, he is a fantastic storyteller in person and in his podcasts and his relentlessly good attitude is a breath of fresh air. He comes across as being a genuine nice guy that does not take himself seriously.

He isn't making movies about a walrus or evil Nazi gnomes or bringing back Jay and Silent Bob because he needs the money. He's actually doing very well with live shows and his podcast empire and has a big following outside of his films.

He's making these movies because he feels like making the movies and they make him happy. That's fine by me.

Smith told Jay that if he got sober he would make another movie with him. If making this movie led to Jay cleaning up his act then thats awesome.

Ill see it because like many of you I was the perfect age for Clerks, Mallrats and Chasing Amy. Love this universe.

I'm from that era and still want to ask "What the **** is the internet" pretty often.

But the only way I would pay to see this movie is if Kevin Smith wears a pair of store-bought, non-tailored blue jeans - right off the rack. Those....hockey dresses or whatever he wears on his tv show give me the creeps.

I still say "What the **** is the internet?" all the time. It's an all time quote in my opinion.


And Kevin Smith's movies are a complete joke now, but like Cactus Jack said, he's completely in on it, and he doesn't care. He just does what he wants cuz it makes him happy. I do love his podcasts and storytelling as well. I will probably try and see him when he brings Reboot to Texas live with Jason Mewes.

To piggy back off this thread, Jason Mewes is also coming out with his directorial debut.

I have to say I kind of like the idea of the plot, but it looks a bit clunky. Danny Trejo looks God awful as whatever he is trying to pull off.

Anyone have tickets for the reboot viewing with Kevin and Jay yet? I picked up mine for Houston several days ago.

I was going to but they were too expensive.

Like many others, I'm the of the age that was in college when all of his best films came out. I'm curious to see how he closes out the story even if we know it's going to be cheesy as hell.

Brian, I watched the Hall H video last night. It was funny that they had a panel when you knew he would pretty much talk all the time. Glad to see he and Ben are on better terms now.

I didn't come here for this movie, but seeing this trailer made this whole thread worth it...
