Not me, but I'm so glad you like it! A year and a half before I started doing reactions, I hired Jonny at Wondermake: wondermake.xyz to create some branding for me and my Twitch stream and website. He made the wordmark and a bunch of logo's, a custom font, a number of animations, and more. I was so grateful that what he made works so well for the TH-cam channel too. I'm glad you enjoy it!
Carrie Fisher requested a set of antique beaver chairs for payment in lieu of money. When Kevin asked why the chairs? She responded Beaver seemed the appropriate payment to be in his movie 😂
She’s in most of his movies. She plays Dante’s fiancé in Clerks 2. The one with the oversized clit Or undersized dick. Just like Adam Sandler, Kevin’s wife is in all of his movies at least somewhere.
This movie is definitely the most ridiculous one so far! What are your thoughts? Let me know below! ❤ Thanks for watching! Patreon: patreon.com/kaiielle
Everytime I rewatch this movie im surprised by how hilarious it is! When Jay and Silent Bob Reboot came out they did a double screening of this and Reboot and it was one of the best movie theatre experiences! Cant wait for more View Askewniverse Reactions! And also hope you react to Kevin's other movies like Red State and Tusk!
The "Affleck was the bomb is Phantoms" joke comes from a comment made on the DVD commentary track for Mallrats. Every Smith movie commentary is worth listening to, Mallrats does stand out as being extra funny. These are pod casts years before those came to be. Really worth a listen.
The commentary track for Clerks is Emo-Kevin, or possibly even Premo-Kevin, when he took himself very seriously. He hates it and it's hilarious to listen to for that reason. The rest are just Kevin being funny with his friends, which is the best.
Unfortunately the commentary track for this movie includes Mewes wandering in late high on something. Making a Jay and Silent Bob movie was predicated on Mewes getting clean and staying clean and, unfortunately, he relapsed sometime between the filming of the movie and when the commentary was recorded.
The name of Will Farrell's Character (Marshall Willinholly) was a callback to an old TV show called Land of the Lost (Marshall, Will and Holly are the names of the characters of that show). Ironically Will Farrell would star in the film adaption of Land of the Lost.
They did sneak a couple Harrison Ford references in, though. The lab they break into is named after the drug at the center of The Fugitive and the scene where Marshall Willenholly (a great Land of the Lost reference) corners them at the dam is as well.
The girl that you liked with the hair, if you want to see more things with her in them, I believe that same actress went on to be the series called “Heroes” on NBC.
Check out the movies How High(2001), Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood(1996), Malibu’s Most Wanted(2003), and Pineapple Express(2008).
Make sure to use my suggestion form for this (linked in every video description). It's much easier for me that way, rather than having to manually scroll through all the comments on my videos. Cheers!
They also brought Gus Van Sant, the director of Good Will Hunting. And they also brought Wes Craven, who directed Scream 1-4, A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Hills Have Eyes (both the original movies, not the remakes) The guy with the braces, Seann William Scott, was also in the American Pie movies. Don't you just want to see Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season happen for real? XD ;P
To add to the American Pie cast reunion....Shannon Elizabeth who plays Justice and Seann William Scott who has a big role in those movies plays Brent the Sheep #$#^@* who Jay kicks out of the moving van
This movie _is_ ridiculous, but I adore it. It was one of my post-9-11 comfort movies (once it was released on DVD in February 2002), as well as a source of bonding with my mother, who, for whatever reason, found Jay to be absolutely hilarious. We still sing Jay's Rap together every-so-often, and I will reenact the entire "Planet of the Apes" sequence on-demand ("GOD DAMN YOUSE ALL TO HELLLLLLLLL!!"). It's certainly not "art," and "Dogma" remains my favorite View Askew movie, but this one is just so fun, and you can tell how much fun everyone was having on-set. It's literally just a guy that made a lot of celebrity friends by being really cool and easy to work with asking all of his buddies to hang out and be silly for a while. ...."Bat and Men." XD
I love this one, Dogma & Jay & Silent Bob Reboot to watch when I need a good laugh. I don’t have to watch closely for laughs. Kevin Smith coming up with Silent Bob is genius. Mimes everything except when thoroughly pissed, doesn’t know how to mime what he wants to say or shows off his big IQ to recite legal. 25:42 it’s funny that for his “reboot” movie he said he used his heart attack to guilt everyone to be in his film. 27:41 he probably left the company blank in the script until he got one to do it and inserted their name. 31:31 love how this calls back to “Mallrats” with Silent Bob believing he had the force. 32:55 Silent Bob is like “that makes sense no innocent woman looking like that would be into Jay and not me”
It's not just Ben Affleck, Matt Damon & Scott William Winters, the director "Gus" they keep talking to who's busy counting his money is the actual director of _Good Will Hunting,_ Gus Van Sant. And the director of the _Scream_ film being shot is the actual director of the first four _Scream_ films, Wes Craven. And if you like Kevin Smith, there's a very good chance you'd enjoy the _Scream_ films. Here's a rundown of most "names" that appears in the film: -Baby Silent Bob: Harley Quinn Smith (daughter of Kevin Smith, now an actress in plenty of stuff) -Jay's Mother: Ever Carradine (part of the Carradine acting family, daughter of Robert Carradine, Lizzie's dad in _Lizzie McGuire)_ -Jay: Jason Mewes -Silent Bob: Kevin Smith -Randal: Jeff Anderson -Dante: Brian O'Halloran -Brodie & Banky: Jason Lee _(My Name Is Earl)_ -Holden & himself: Ben Affleck _(Good Will Hunting, Gone Girl, The Town, Daredevil)_ -Hitchhiker: George Carlin _(Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure)_ -Nun: Carrie Fisher _(Star Wars, The Blues Brothers)_ -Fred from Scooby-Doo: Marc Blucas _(Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Knight and Day)_ -Justice: Shannon Elizabeth _(American Pie, Scary Movie, 13 Ghosts)_ -Sissy: Eliza Dushku _(Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Tru Calling, Bring it On, Wrong Turn)_ -Chrissy: Ali Larter _(Final Destination, Heroes, Legally Blonde, Resident Evil)_ -Missy: Jennifer Schwalbach Smith (Kevin Smith's wife) -Brent: Seann William Scott _(American Pie, Final Destination, The Rundown)_ -Willenholly: Will Ferrell _(Anchorman, Elf, Step Brothers, Old School)_ -TV anchor Reg Hartner: Jon Stewart _(The Daily Show)_ -Cigarette Smoking Man: William B. Davis _(The X-Files)_ -Pizza Delivery Guy: Joe Quesada (very famous comic book creator at DC and especially Marvel) -Drug Dealer: Tracy Morgan _(30 Rock)_ -Entertainment reporter: Jules Asner (a famous entertainment reporter) -The assistant director: Scott Mosier (Kevin Smith's producer) -GWH2 director: Gus Van Sant (director of _Good Will Hunting, Milk, Finding Forrester)_ -GWH2 Will actor: Matt Damon _(Good Will Hunting, Bourne, The Martian, The Talented Mr. Ripley)_ -GWH2 Clark actor: Scott William Winters _(Good Will Hunting)_ -Scream actress: Shannen Doherty _(Beverly Hills 90210, Charmed)_ -Scream director: Wes Craven (director of _Scream 1, 2, 3, 4, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Hills Have Eyes)_ -Daredevil director: Mark Steven Johnson (director of _Daredevil, Ghost Rider)_ -Bluntman actor: Jason Biggs _(American Pie)_ -Chronic acotr: James Van Der Beek _(Dawson's Creek)_ -Chaka: Chris Rock _(Grown Ups, Madagascar)_ -Production assistant: Jamie Kennedy _(Scream, Son of the Mask, Ghost Whisperer)_ -Film clapper: Paul Dini (huge name in comic books & animation, co-creator of the Batman character Harley Quinn that Kevin Smith named his daughter after) -Cocknocker: Mark Hamill _(Star Wars, Batman the Animated Series)_ -Alyssa: Joey Lauren Adams -God: Alanis Morissette -The band at the end: Morris Day and The Time
At this point it's safe to watch An Evening with Kevin Smith (the first one, at least) to get a lot of great stories behind the making of this first handful of movies in the View Askewniverse. It would probably not work as a reaction video but there's a lot of good stuff in there if you've liked Kevin's writing in these movies.
I'm eager to get to that, but personally going to wait until I've watched everything so then I can really deep dive on tons of Kevin interviews and such.
Highly recommend the Clerks animated series if you need more View Askew. Only 6 episodes, but very funny. And interesting to see something from Kevin Smith where he's not allowed to cuss in every sentence. I'm still kinda amazed that there actually was a Clerks cartoon on ABC for a little while.
Happy Thursday Kaiielle. I was late to the premiere (stupid work) but this is at the top of my watchlist for the day. 🥃☮❤ My second-favourite in the View Askewniverse, behind Dogma. Certainly not Oscar material, but the brilliant meta humour and endless awesome cameos make it a 10/10 for me. Snoochie Boochies.😁
"Marshall Willenholly. On a routine expedition! Met the greatest earthquake of them all!" Also cool that Will Farrel was in the Land of the Lost movie.
I agree with your rank, other then I would flip Amy and Dogma. Both Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Jay and Silent Bob::Reboot (and I assume Part 3 in production now) are super fun, outrageous and over the top BUT they really don't have the same heart of the other films (though Reboot as a bit more heart) They are just crazy, raunchy fun. I still love them and revisit them... but they play more like Saturday Night Live 'skits' or the 80s "Naked Gun" spoof style movies.
Please feel free to correct me my fellow viewers. But I believe one of the reasons Kevin wrote this film was to keep Jason busy, who was a Herion user at the time. I know it's not the happiest of facts (if true). But it says a lot about the kind of man/friend Kevin is. Writing a movie for his friend in the hopes of helping him and keeping him drug free.
I got free passes to an early screening for this, and it was one of the best comedies I've ever seen, I would have gladly paid to see it after the fact.
This is my favourite KS movie and if I'm honest, the only one I still revisit. But I do have a soft spot for Yoga Hosers in a cult, so-bad-its-good way
I went to this movie dressed as silent bob. I passed so amazingly, that after the movie I stood outside the theater leaning against a wall smoking as bob does at the quick stop somebody thought I was Kevin smith and slammed into the car in front of him.
Dogma and J&SBSB are my two favorite Viewaskew movies. I've never been able to watch Chasing Amy or Mallrats all the way through and I haven't seen Clerks 3 or Jay & Silent Bob Reboot, mostly because I kinda feel like I had my fill of Kevin Smith's writing after watching Tusk.
@25:09 Scott Mosier, Kevin’s real producer from day one. “You’re a tracer” in Chasing Amy. Snowball in Clerks. Cheating on wife in bus in Dogma. The other half of SModcast.
You need to watch The Fugitive and Animal House. Then u will get a lot more of Kevin Smith's inside humor. Multiple references to those movies in this film.
I loved and still love Kevin Smith and his movies, I had seen them all before but this came out, and when this came out I was 17-18 so I was able to see it in theaters. I think I saw it 2-3 times. In theaters. Countless times after, I cant ever decide which is my favorite KS movie, but if I broke it down into three or four categories, I’d say ridiculous comedy it’s this. For an award winning movie it’s Jersey Girl. That movie is just beyond AMAZING. For satire it’s Dogma. For general comedy it’s either Clerks 2 or Mallrats. I mean I can’t really decide, lol. I want to create a different classification to include all his movies. TUSK was amazing but just like Jersey Girl, that wasn’t his fortay, he did something different in both cases and it worked. Kevin Smith and Tarantino are two of my top directors. I love movies and have many I admire, and I realize that’s not a particularly fringe opinion, lol, they are some of the most mainstream and beloved directors but where I enjoy movies made by other big directors, I don’t think they have much connection to the script until they pick it up, whereas there are some directors who wrote AND directed their movies. Or most of them. The real MVPs
I'm also not a big fan of "the crudeness and the raunchiness", as you put it, but for movies with characters like Jay and Silent Bob, it's as if the filmmakers are giving us an option to laugh with them or laugh at them. It's like Beavis and Butthead, if I knew those guys in real life, I would find them insufferable, but on the screen I find them hilarious. Same thing here, the crude jokes are a little bit funny on the surface level, but in the context of these two stoners, it's funny because it's a character piece.
This movie works for a few reasons... sometimes it's just nice to unplug with a bit of mindless stupid humor, all the callbacks and actors are nice easter eggs for fans of the other movies, and Jay's crudeness is made tolerable by the fact that he almost has something vaguely resembling a character arc in this movie lol. Dogma is my favorite... too bad sicko in prison still owns the rights to it. Kevin can't make a sequel until he can manage to get the rights back.
Once you are done with Clerks 2 and Clerks 3, you need to go for the other Kevin Smith films. Jersey Girl, Red State, Zack and Miri Make A Porno and Tusk. (Avoid Yoga Hosers, it is terrible).
@@jrobwoo688 I personally always leave Cop Out, out of the list. Why? Because of how Bruce Willis treated everyone on set. Knowing he went all prima donna and treated Kevin Smith, Scott Mosier and Tracy Morgan like shit as well as the crew, I just lost all respect for him. Especially when Kevin is one of the nicest and most decent people one could talk to or meet in person. I can't say what Tracy Morgan is like, but damn. Throwing so many hissy fits, not showing up on time, disrespecting the people he works with...yeah. I am not okay with that. So I don't even acknowledge the film with a watch or don't watch for it.
Since ya predicted that chasing Amy would be your favorite Ben affleck role, it’s worth saying that Kevin smith’s next movie was jersey girl. It gets skipped because it’s not in the askewniverse but I like him a lot in that movie and George Carlin as his father is amazing. Start a trend and be the first reactor who watches Kevin’s movies to check it out. 🤘🤘🤘
Making fun of Miramax at the time was ahead of it's time. Harvey Weinstein was still president at the time this was made. Kevin has pledged his future residuals from the films Weinstein produced to the non-profit organization Women in Film.
Great reaction, please skip his next movie Jersey Girl, it's not part of the View Askew Universe and maybe the worst movie ever made haha, it's universally disliked mostly because it revolved around JLo and Affleck at the time, not to mention it was just a poor script. Go straight to Clerks 2, where he completely redeems himself!
I'm only following the View Askew right now so I have no plans to watch Jersey Girl as part of it. That said, I do want to see Jersey Girl eventually just to form my own opinion!
I loved this movie when it first came out. I can't remember if I saw it in theaters or rented it. Remember going out to rent videos? Anywho, after subsequent watches and as much fun as it is, I think it leans a bit too much into cameos, self-referential gags and breaking the fourth wall. I still enjoy the film, and I'm sure it was a blast for them to film, but that kinda stuff doesn't hold up on re-watches as well as the other films in the AViewAskew universe with a bit more meat on the bones. 🦧
Don't know if you did it yourself, but that kaiielle logo animation in the into is killer
Not me, but I'm so glad you like it! A year and a half before I started doing reactions, I hired Jonny at Wondermake: wondermake.xyz to create some branding for me and my Twitch stream and website. He made the wordmark and a bunch of logo's, a custom font, a number of animations, and more. I was so grateful that what he made works so well for the TH-cam channel too. I'm glad you enjoy it!
Carrie Fisher requested a set of antique beaver chairs for payment in lieu of money. When Kevin asked why the chairs? She responded Beaver seemed the appropriate payment to be in his movie 😂
Fun fact. Baby Silent Bob in this movie is played by Kevin Smith's daughter.
Also the actress that plays Missy is in real life Kevin Smith's wife.
She’s in most of his movies. She plays Dante’s fiancé in Clerks 2. The one with the oversized clit
Or undersized dick.
Just like Adam Sandler, Kevin’s wife is in all of his movies at least somewhere.
And Phantoms is a decent horror movie.
@@DocLunarwind Phantoms like a motha fucka
I think you mean well known fact...
"The sign! On the back of the car!!!"
Kills me every time.
And I told you that Affleck was da bomb in Phantoms, yo.
I always love Mark's laugh as the joker during the fight scene.
haha its amazing
This movie is definitely the most ridiculous one so far! What are your thoughts? Let me know below! ❤ Thanks for watching!
Patreon: patreon.com/kaiielle
Thank you so very much for watching these movies with us. It brightens my day to watch these with you.
Dogma being your #2 is appropriate, since Kevin refers to it almost exclusively as "The one with the giant rubber poop monster."
Can't wait for Clerks II!
Everytime I rewatch this movie im surprised by how hilarious it is! When Jay and Silent Bob Reboot came out they did a double screening of this and Reboot and it was one of the best movie theatre experiences! Cant wait for more View Askewniverse Reactions! And also hope you react to Kevin's other movies like Red State and Tusk!
Kevin says he's more of an editor than a director. He gets the shot that he wants and moves on as he's cutting it in his head.
Hi Kaiielle, did you watch until the very end? There's a post-credits scene with Alannis Morrisette reprising her role as God from Dogma.😅
I had checked for a credits scene but missed that it was an actual scene-scene. I did watch it after the fact lol
Fisher agreed to do this on two conditions. 1. Her scene could not reference Star Wars. 2. No scenes could reference Princess Leah.
In the beginning of the film. Baby Silent Bob is Kevin Smith’s daughter Harley Quinn Smith
I quote this movie daily, especially the "Ain't that about a b****?" and "The f-ing whole world's against us dude I swear!" They are so heartfelt !😂
The "Affleck was the bomb is Phantoms" joke comes from a comment made on the DVD commentary track for Mallrats. Every Smith movie commentary is worth listening to, Mallrats does stand out as being extra funny. These are pod casts years before those came to be. Really worth a listen.
I plan to do that when I rewatch these, once I've completed all the first time watches.
The commentary track for Clerks is Emo-Kevin, or possibly even Premo-Kevin, when he took himself very seriously. He hates it and it's hilarious to listen to for that reason. The rest are just Kevin being funny with his friends, which is the best.
Unfortunately the commentary track for this movie includes Mewes wandering in late high on something. Making a Jay and Silent Bob movie was predicated on Mewes getting clean and staying clean and, unfortunately, he relapsed sometime between the filming of the movie and when the commentary was recorded.
"Now how do *you* like dem apples?" That never fails to make me laugh.
I hope that you didn't miss the post-credit scene. It references Dogma (kinda)
The Colorado sheriff was played by Judd Nelson from The Breakfast Club.
The name of Will Farrell's Character (Marshall Willinholly) was a callback to an old TV show called Land of the Lost (Marshall, Will and Holly are the names of the characters of that show).
Ironically Will Farrell would star in the film adaption of Land of the Lost.
I met Kevin Smith and got him to sign my Silent Bob bobblehead. He was hella cool.
Dude you had me cracking up. I’m sure my neighbors heard me through the walls lol😂😂😂. Great reaction. You are free to leave sirs. 😂😂👏👏🥰
I wish Smith had been able to get Harrison Ford to cameo also. Having the whole trifecta would have been just perfect.
True but I can only IMAGINE Harrison's response to being asked lmao he was probably not for it at all.
They did sneak a couple Harrison Ford references in, though. The lab they break into is named after the drug at the center of The Fugitive and the scene where Marshall Willenholly (a great Land of the Lost reference) corners them at the dam is as well.
To this day Affleck has said one of the most quoted lines he gets from any movie he has been in is that he was “the bomb in Phantoms yo!”
The girl that you liked with the hair, if you want to see more things with her in them, I believe that same actress went on to be the series called “Heroes” on NBC.
"Bat and Men". Well, Affleck did play Batman, so you were half right.
……and they are both men 🤷
Can't wait till you get to the Jay and Silent Bob reboot and Clerks 3!
You should check out the bloopers of this. Great stuff!
Check out the movies How High(2001), Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood(1996), Malibu’s Most Wanted(2003), and Pineapple Express(2008).
Make sure to use my suggestion form for this (linked in every video description). It's much easier for me that way, rather than having to manually scroll through all the comments on my videos. Cheers!
This was the first movie that I watched with Jay and silent Bob
They also brought Gus Van Sant, the director of Good Will Hunting. And they also brought Wes Craven, who directed Scream 1-4, A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Hills Have Eyes (both the original movies, not the remakes)
The guy with the braces, Seann William Scott, was also in the American Pie movies.
Don't you just want to see Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season happen for real? XD ;P
I'm a huge fan of Road Trip movies and this is my favorite.
To add to the American Pie cast reunion....Shannon Elizabeth who plays Justice and Seann William Scott who has a big role in those movies plays Brent the Sheep #$#^@* who Jay kicks out of the moving van
Jon Stewart was also in The Faculty (amazing) and Death to Smooshy

You have to react to the reboot of Jay and Silent Bob also. It continues there story years later
Don't worry, the rest of the movies in the series are to come!
"Marshall Willenholly. On a routine expedition! Met the greatest earthquake of them all!" Also cool that Will Farrel was in the Land of the Lost movie.
Liked your reaction, please react to the American Pie movies.
Judd Nelson was the one getting a shout out in Dogma.
And this explains the end credits of Mallrats.
Silent Bob was the bomb in Dogma.
I agree with your rank, other then I would flip Amy and Dogma. Both Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Jay and Silent Bob::Reboot (and I assume Part 3 in production now) are super fun, outrageous and over the top BUT they really don't have the same heart of the other films (though Reboot as a bit more heart) They are just crazy, raunchy fun.

American Pie franchise, please!
I cut my own hair too!
This movie always makes my face and stomach hurt from laughing so hard. And the offensive expression at jays pervertedness is classic. 😂
We need more comedies like this. Too much don't trigger woke snowflakes comedies are made today. 🤢🤮
Kevin Smith is the Stan Lee of comedy! Many actors always made cameos in his films!
This is my favourite KS movie and if I'm honest, the only one I still revisit. But I do have a soft spot for Yoga Hosers in a cult, so-bad-its-good way
I went to this movie dressed as silent bob. I passed so amazingly, that after the movie I stood outside the theater leaning against a wall smoking as bob does at the quick stop somebody thought I was Kevin smith and slammed into the car in front of him.
There's a video on youtube of Jon Stewart and Will Ferrell adlibbing their interview. 🤣🤣
Dogma and J&SBSB are my two favorite Viewaskew movies. I've never been able to watch Chasing Amy or Mallrats all the way through and I haven't seen Clerks 3 or Jay & Silent Bob Reboot, mostly because I kinda feel like I had my fill of Kevin Smith's writing after watching Tusk.
I always thought that this was Kevin’s worst movie, but I watched it recently and laughed my ass off!
@25:09 Scott Mosier, Kevin’s real producer from day one. “You’re a tracer” in Chasing Amy. Snowball in Clerks. Cheating on wife in bus in Dogma. The other half of SModcast.

For an award winning movie it’s Jersey Girl. That movie is just beyond AMAZING. For satire it’s Dogma. For general comedy it’s either Clerks 2 or Mallrats. I mean I can’t really decide, lol. I want to create a different classification to include all his movies. TUSK was amazing but just like Jersey Girl, that wasn’t his fortay, he did something different in both cases and it worked.
Kevin Smith and Tarantino are two of my top directors. I love movies and have many I admire, and I realize that’s not a particularly fringe opinion, lol, they are some of the most mainstream and beloved directors but where I enjoy movies made by other big directors, I don’t think they have much connection to the script until they pick it up, whereas there are some directors who wrote AND directed their movies. Or most of them. The real MVPs
If you didn't know the other girl in the crew is Kevin Smiths actual wife
Does anyone know if Kevin still does the podcast from the cantons bar &grill or whatever its called in Los Angeles??
Yes. It's live on TH-cam every week.
You should watch FANBOYS it’s not in this universe but Kevin smith and jay show up in it as a cameo
You don’t want to rub the CLIT the wrong way.
If you like Jay & Silent Bob there's an Easter egg in one of the Scream movies 😉
I'm also not a big fan of "the crudeness and the raunchiness", as you put it, but for movies with characters like Jay and Silent Bob, it's as if the filmmakers are giving us an option to laugh with them or laugh at them. It's like Beavis and Butthead, if I knew those guys in real life, I would find them insufferable, but on the screen I find them hilarious. Same thing here, the crude jokes are a little bit funny on the surface level, but in the context of these two stoners, it's funny because it's a character piece.
That's a great way of putting it! Completely agree.
@19:49 In a row ?
I miss wizzard magazine
u catch the 37 reference?
Jay and Silent Bob Movie? Who would pay to see that? 🖐️
"George Lucas gonna sue somebody!"
Jersey girl needs to be added to your list. You will LOVE Jersey Girl.
It will rank up there with Chasing Amy
Missy is kevin Smith's wife
I’m excited to see you watch Clerks 2, it’s one of my favorites. And I can’t wait to see your reaction to reboot against this one
Mark Hemel is dressed like the flash villian the trickster thst mark hamel was the voice of
if you liked Chasing Amy, I hope you check out Jersey Girl, and the sequal to this movie actually has more heart
This movie works for a few reasons... sometimes it's just nice to unplug with a bit of mindless stupid humor, all the callbacks and actors are nice easter eggs for fans of the other movies, and Jay's crudeness is made tolerable by the fact that he almost has something vaguely resembling a character arc in this movie lol. Dogma is my favorite... too bad sicko in prison still owns the rights to it. Kevin can't make a sequel until he can manage to get the rights back.
I don't thonk you realized who justice was when jason Biggs showed up
Once you are done with Clerks 2 and Clerks 3, you need to go for the other Kevin Smith films.
Jersey Girl, Red State, Zack and Miri Make A Porno and Tusk. (Avoid Yoga Hosers, it is terrible).
seconded on all of that, especially about Yoga Hosers.
Cop Out
@@jrobwoo688 I personally always leave Cop Out, out of the list. Why? Because of how Bruce Willis treated everyone on set. Knowing he went all prima donna and treated Kevin Smith, Scott Mosier and Tracy Morgan like shit as well as the crew, I just lost all respect for him. Especially when Kevin is one of the nicest and most decent people one could talk to or meet in person.
I can't say what Tracy Morgan is like, but damn. Throwing so many hissy fits, not showing up on time, disrespecting the people he works with...yeah. I am not okay with that. So I don't even acknowledge the film with a watch or don't watch for it.
Yeah , this one is a bit too much. It's a fun watch once, mostly for the cameos, but it definitely lacks as a movie on it's own merits
Since ya predicted that chasing Amy would be your favorite Ben affleck role, it’s worth saying that Kevin smith’s next movie was jersey girl. It gets skipped because it’s not in the askewniverse but I like him a lot in that movie and George Carlin as his father is amazing. Start a trend and be the first reactor who watches Kevin’s movies to check it out. 🤘🤘🤘
For me it's this then dogma
No one ever watches the end credits scene
I did after the fact. Meh.
Making fun of Miramax at the time was ahead of it's time. Harvey Weinstein was still president at the time this was made. Kevin has pledged his future residuals from the films Weinstein produced to the non-profit organization Women in Film.
Awesome reaction/ can you please watch a movie called ANY GIVEN SUNDAY.
Great movie.
Great reaction, please skip his next movie Jersey Girl, it's not part of the View Askew Universe and maybe the worst movie ever made haha, it's universally disliked mostly because it revolved around JLo and Affleck at the time, not to mention it was just a poor script. Go straight to Clerks 2, where he completely redeems himself!
I'm only following the View Askew right now so I have no plans to watch Jersey Girl as part of it. That said, I do want to see Jersey Girl eventually just to form my own opinion!
@@kaiielle fair enough, you may like it
You’re an absolute muppet and are 100% wrong. You clearly didn’t even watch the movie. Best stfu about movies, kid.
Wow.. I haven't seen a girl/woman with bangs in A LONG TIME!! Looking good K :)
I LOVE how meta this movie is! Outside of Chasing Amy, this might be my favorite Kevin Smith movie. It's just a guilty pleasure. 😂🥹❤️🍿🍿
I loved this movie when it first came out. I can't remember if I saw it in theaters or rented it. Remember going out to rent videos? Anywho, after subsequent watches and as much fun as it is, I think it leans a bit too much into cameos, self-referential gags and breaking the fourth wall. I still enjoy the film, and I'm sure it was a blast for them to film, but that kinda stuff doesn't hold up on re-watches as well as the other films in the AViewAskew universe with a bit more meat on the bones. 🦧
