Probably won't happen. Kevin Smith's pulling a George Lucas and retiring. According to him, he says he just doesn't have it anymore. I hope he's just saying that 'cause he's in a rough patch. But if he does continue, he definitely needs to stay within the Askweniverse. It never ends well when he goes outside of it.
I love both Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings, but I have to agree with Randall on the point he made about Sam's look at Frodo near the end...it was pretty gay.
***** I've been a hardcore Tolkien fan since childhood, and me and my friends just ruined the premiere of The Return of the King because we couldn't contain our giggles. The scene where Aragorn grabs Legolas' shoulder and Legolas is dressed basically like a girl was the worst. I love the trilogy to bits, but it's very hard to contain my immaturity while watching it.
Jk Smith the puking man’s logic doesn’t check out because 1) no self-respecting person gives a fuck or two shits for that matter what the Academy thinks; and 2) thinking a movie is bad doesn’t mean you deny that it’s beautifully photographed. Technical achievement or not, Randal’s argument was never that it wasn’t a competently made flick.
"Hey Dante , I made fun of lord of the rings so hard some nerd puked all over the counter , where's the mop ? " Dante: with the rest of the cleaning supplies ! ; Randel replies " We have cleaning supplies ? "
"Chicks dig Lord of the Rings, Randall." I had a one night stand where I petitioned this cute blonde girl to watch Fellowship with me at first. So, yeah, in my experience Lord of the Rings DOES get you laid! I should add that we didn't get past Bilbo's party, nor did we ever finish it.
I sorta agree with Randall. You just can't beat the original '77-'83 Star Wars Trilogy; those movies have everything from action, adventure, creativity, imagination, technology, spirituality, etc. I could watch those movies again and again and not get tired of them (can't really say the same for the prequels though). As for Lord of the Rings...while those movies are incredible (in terms of visuals, characters, and being true to the Tolkien novels), they just drag on and on and it's hard to sit through them multiple times.
@@AjaxNixon Are you really trying to imply a connection between "not gay" and "Kirk"? XD The grandfather of all the gay ships? The man that had Vulcanian sex three times on screen with his best friend? Congrats for the guts XD
Why would fanboys need to compete? I love the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and original Star Wars Trilogy. This is from someone who's ACTUALLY READ Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, has seen all the franchise films and there's room for both.
You must have never been to a con with Trekkies. They're the worst kind of fandom, overall. Not specific ones, but many of them will hate you and bash you if you don't know what stains were on William Shatner's underwear in _"Specter of the Gun..."_ I've said this all over TH-cam, and it's this: I'm fine with people liking whatever they want, but that gives them no right to force their opinions on others. Kevin Smith believes the same way. This scene is poking fun at the fact that this happens all too often when members of different fandoms meet and clash ideas.
Funny how all the Star Wars abuse is either directed at the NEW trilogy or at the incidental formalities (Lucas' lack of a Best Directing Oscar)---no specific criticism toward the originals. Really kinda surprising that Randal doesn't point that out. In fact, he seems to ignore the existence of the new films entirely: "There's only ONE trilogy..." Love that. At any rate, the original Star Wars trilogy and the LotR trilogy are my favorites in the history of cinema. As long as they hold the numbers 1 and 2 spots on any top 10 list, they're interchangeable in my eyes.
In my eyes, they are aslo intercheangable with the Toy Story and The Godfathe trilogy (I know the third movie of The Godfather was just "average" or "moderately good", but the first two are widely acknowledged as some of the best movies of all time, with many critics considering the Godfather 1 and the Godfather 2 to be the best movies ever).
I could pick hundreds of memorable moments in Jedi, but in this case I'll say just one phrase that pisses all over the face in the entire LOTR trilogy: IT'S A TRAP!! (And with just those 3 seconds, my friend, I prove that Star Wars is more than a film, but part of the culture nowadays --a status your beloved dwarfs and walking trees will never achieve)
***** Wait, what? Are you seriously trying to claim that Lord of the Rings isn't an international phenomenon? It's one of the most popular books of all time and was the basis for a billion dollar movie franchise.
Return of the Jedi went down hill right after they killed Jabba. How gay were the Ewoks? GAY. Funny how the supposed powerful Empire was taken down by a bunch of fucking teddy bears. However, if said Teddy Bears were the same as Ted, from the movie Ted, and they a'll snorted 3 lines of coke! Well then they'd kick the crap out of the Storm Troopers or any other adversary.
Well, the superior technology WAS pretty important, as the Ewoks were getting their asses kicked right up until the point that Chewbacca commandeered an AT-ST and turned its guns on the Stormtroopers.
That's true. Farrelly Brothers lost me after Shallow Hal and I can't stand these dennis Dugan/Adam Sandler films. The only director of comedy in Kevin's league is Judd Apatow
Yousuf Khan I personally felt like the gollum scene dragged on and in the end accomplished very little other then filling more screen time. But i'll give it to you that the goblin scene was half entertaining
Return of the jedi ended with little Fury bunnies Return of the king ended with 11 academy awards including best picture. The difference between the originals is as clear as the difference between their prequels. No contest
Terminator 1 was great 2 was awesome and 3 was just kinda meh. but T2 was a hard sequel to follow. but what pissed me off the most was pretty much saying what they did in T2 did not matter, shit was going to happen no matter what, that was their reason for T3.
LOTR book is only about 800 pages long. Some Peter Jackson managed to turn that into TWELVE HOURS of film. And that’s the divisive part. It’s just very slow-paced plot, with large portions of time where absolutely nothing happens. Like, the first 90 minutes of Fellowship probably contains about 20 minutes of plot...... Truth is, Peter Jackson knew he had to make a ridiculous amount of revenue to fund movies of that size and scale, so he stretched it out into 3 parts. When, they could have done the entire trilogy in one movie. Star Wars trilogy is very easy to watch because they’re just a must better scripts. Much better paced. Much more action. More humour. It’s impossible to look away. Whereas LOTR takes more commitment to get into👍 I bet lots of people just turned Fellowship off after the first hour......😂
Randal's comments about Frodo and Sam being totally gay for each other was the inspiration for the research paper I'm currently writing for my Beowulf to Tolkien class.
I'm not gonna sound like Randall, but I disagree. The only return is "Of the Jedi." And there's only one Oz. And it's the all-time classic Wizard of Oz (1939).
SuperKing178 Trust me, there are better movies out there. You just have to stop re-watching your Rings movies and go to your local video store, any Redbox, or register a NetFlix/Hulu account...
I'm sure the next arguments will be about Marvel and DC movies and to sweeten the pot Ben Affleck is playing Batman, who is a close friend of Kevin Smith!
glonnie15 I could buy Aflac as a comic book writer who's in love with a lesbian, and he was a passable fallen angel. If he's going to be a superhero, he should be one who's already cruddy (maybe Plastic Man?) so he can't ruin it like he did Dare Devil. When I heard he was going to play Batman, I thought it was a joke. Or hoped it was. Whatever. The 1997 movie wasn't bad enough, they gotta make Ben freakin Aflac Batman. Who could have possibly thought that was a good idea?
***** Because Daredevil wasn't a hugely successful movie at that time right? Because the studio forced a shitty love story with Elektra that the director didn't want. Because the director's cut of that movie isn't completely fucking different. Because Ben Affleck hasn't starred and directed amazing movies in the last few years.... yeah go fuck yourself you stupid dipshit.
+Michael Morgan First of all, the original Plastic Man comics written and drawn by Jack Cole are FUCKING AMAZING. But don't bother with them if you don't have a sense of humor. Secondly, I'm astonished that there's _anybody_ left who doesn't realize Affleck will be a great Batman, possibly the greatest ever. Sure, maybe _one year ago,_ before any trailers were released, that was a different time. But now, it's obvious he's going to be the best part of BvS. Third, how you do repeatedly misspell such a famous celebrity's name? You have seen the name "Ben Affleck" at least 100 times, if not 1,000. How do you _not_ unconsciously memorize that? "Aflac"? SERIOUSLY? I want to know what goes on in your mind when you type that, repeatedly. I asked this same question of some dumb bitch who kept typing "Bill Cosbey". She spelled it that way _three times_ (3X). Consistently. If she had spelled it "Cosbey", then "Causebe", then "Kosbie", I would have thought _"Okay, brain damage or mild retardation, who cares?"_ But when somebody CONSISTENTLY spells SUCH a well-publicized word wrong _THE SAME WAY,_ I want to know what they're thinking! Do you think "No, everybody else is wrong, it's supposed to be 'Aflac'"?!? I didn't get an answer from her, but I'm hoping you can enlighten me. How do you NOT unconsicously pick up on these things? I've NEVER sat and thought _"Wait, how do I spell his name?"_ It's just, if I see a name 10, 100, or 1,000 times, I'm gonna know how to spell it right, automatically.
Ben Culture The fact that you can't recognize an obvious joke, making fun of a celebrity's name, that was a sketch on SNL, tells me all I need to know. There is no need to look at anything else you say. Except for your insinuating that I'm the one without a sense of humor. Now THAT is fucking hilarious! Just try to picture Lorne Michaels and someone from the SNL cast (I don't remember who) talking about Ben Aflac and trying to remember his last name while Gilbert Godfrey (the guy who does the voice of the duck in the insurance commercials) is in the background saying "Affleck! Affleck!" Or is that brand of humor too smart for you? I've always enjoyed it. From calling a former Ohio Governor "S&Leste" to calling a famous lawyer "F U Bailey" to spelling a former president's name like the beer that's pronounced the same way to calling another one "Clintax" to calling the state Romney is from "Taxachusetts," this is one of the many forms of humor I enjoy. I've lost you completely, haven't I.
i like both Star Wars and the Rings,both are good movies,and i like both medieval and sci-fi. the first star wars,phantom menace was quite shit,as for the rings,don't know why people like the return of the king the most....i find the two towers the best of lotr.
In his books, Tolkein explains why the eagles can't be counted on to simply carry out the mission of the ring. Jackson kind of dropped the ball by not adding any exposition that would clarify the significance of any potential eagle intervention. To casual watchers it looks like the eagles could have just flown Frodo over Amon Amarth and dropped the ring into the lava and the whole episode could have taken 5 days, but Tolkein goes to great lengths to explain why that was not a possibility.
prequels were NOT bad. I loved them just as much as I did the originals. I could probably write a book on why I liked them. All the episodes work together to enhance each other. If you re-watch them, you'll find all these cool rhythmic story patterns. Their way better films than what people give them credit for.
LOTR > Star Wars, Randall couldn't even bring up an honest criticism of it, it makes sense since LOTR pretty much does everything better than star wars.
lgjhmovies Better soundtrack, better fights, better overarching story, better use of practical effects/cgi etc, I could go on but like I said, most things in LOTR are done better.
This scene goes on way to long and Randall's critique is just... dumb. All it is is walking? I hate those movies but it's way more than walking. It's epic battles. Forever. It is a forever long movie of nothing but forever long epic battles.
I lost it at "even the fucking trees walked in those movies!"

Clerks 3: Return of the Clerks

I never noticed how serious Randall looks when he's telling them there's only one trilogy.
I love LOTR but I can not contain my laughter when he walks....
"Your chicks are your left & right" LMFAO hahaha ahh Randal is HILARIOUS!
Clerks 2 is highly underrated. Dante and Randall's story of struggling to find a purpose in life struck a chord with me. Plus, it's fuckin hilarious.
I love both but i agree with the dude...FUCKIN A!
Sam flat out bricks in Frodo's mouth.

All time favorite scene. I cannot help but burst out laughing
As much as I dislike Randall, he's absolutely right about Star Wars. Both trilogies are INFINITELY better than LOTR,
Being a huge fan of Tolkien, I've watched The Lord of the Rings too many times to count and read the books three times. I still find this hilarious.
both LOTR and Star Wars are epic. in there own way. end of story.
I agree I love both franchises as well
NunuInc star wars is still better.
I think K. Smith likes them both.
Nope Disney ruined starwars now
Star Wars is a lot better. LOTR actually takes quite a lot of effort to watch/get into 👍 they’re quite boring films, for large spells
The walking joke sums up The Mandalorian pretty well
Yeah a show set in STAR WARS was about walking... they literally had to fly from planet to planet, but yes... there is a lot of walking too
If no one has ever seen Lord of the Rings just tell them to look this clip up. Randall just nailed the entire trilogy in one epic gold speech.
LOTR is perfect. All his points were completely invalid

All right, look, there's only one "Return," okay, and it ain't "of the King," it's "of the Jedi."
no man just no. star wars was inspired by the lotr book series so that renders your argument invalid.
heavyironmusic Apparently someone has never heard of "The Hidden Fortress" by Akira Kurosawa...

The subtitles were a nice touch. Thank you for that.
Orlando did a really good job as Legolas.And yes, Tolkien did write the story, but Peter did a great job at staying loyal to the book.
The thing is hot chicks actually do like lord of the rings these days.
***** Yeah, women who are into swords and elves and sh*t. And I wouldn't f*ck them with the Torch of Gondor.
There's a reason why all *truly* smart people hate all this stupid elves, magicians and shit. Conan O'Brian is one of these smart people, for example.

That's because all nerds standards are extremely low lmao.
I like both Lord of the Rings and Star Wars 😊
I agree the Star Wars Episodes I, II & III was shit but one thing Randall had right about Return of the King- that was a very fucking gay look.
Whenever people talk about the star wars trilogy, they're always talking about episode 4-6 and never about 1-3, unless it's about how much it sucked.
name bn I said Episodes I, II and III because they do suck. 4, 5 and 6 were masterpieces.
Rudy Juarez 1 sucked
2 and 3 are ok

LOTR is perfect. All of his points were invalid
@@Daniel-gp6sd even trees walked in those movies.
"Even the fucking trees were walking in that movie"
Str8killinya scratch out "were"
Also Randall's eyes darting back and forth hahahahaha
Star Trek ftw
Star Wars is still better
I agree
That's a great sarcasm
I'm sure the next arguments will be about Marvel and DC movies and to sweeten the pot Ben Affleck is playing Batman, who is a close friend of Kevin Smith!
glonnie15 WAS a close friend, apparently they hadn't talked in like 2 years.
glonnie15 I could buy Aflac as a comic book writer who's in love with a lesbian, and he was a passable fallen angel. If he's going to be a superhero, he should be one who's already cruddy (maybe Plastic Man?) so he can't ruin it like he did Dare Devil. When I heard he was going to play Batman, I thought it was a joke. Or hoped it was. Whatever. The 1997 movie wasn't bad enough, they gotta make Ben freakin Aflac Batman. Who could have possibly thought that was a good idea?
***** Because Daredevil wasn't a hugely successful movie at that time right? Because the studio forced a shitty love story with Elektra that the director didn't want. Because the director's cut of that movie isn't completely fucking different. Because Ben Affleck hasn't starred and directed amazing movies in the last few years.... yeah go fuck yourself you stupid dipshit.
+Michael Morgan First of all, the original Plastic Man comics written and drawn by Jack Cole are FUCKING AMAZING. But don't bother with them if you don't have a sense of humor.
Secondly, I'm astonished that there's _anybody_ left who doesn't realize Affleck will be a great Batman, possibly the greatest ever. Sure, maybe _one year ago,_ before any trailers were released, that was a different time. But now, it's obvious he's going to be the best part of BvS.
Third, how you do repeatedly misspell such a famous celebrity's name? You have seen the name "Ben Affleck" at least 100 times, if not 1,000. How do you _not_ unconsciously memorize that? "Aflac"? SERIOUSLY? I want to know what goes on in your mind when you type that, repeatedly. I asked this same question of some dumb bitch who kept typing "Bill Cosbey". She spelled it that way _three times_ (3X). Consistently. If she had spelled it "Cosbey", then "Causebe", then "Kosbie", I would have thought _"Okay, brain damage or mild retardation, who cares?"_ But when somebody CONSISTENTLY spells SUCH a well-publicized word wrong _THE SAME WAY,_ I want to know what they're thinking!
Do you think "No, everybody else is wrong, it's supposed to be 'Aflac'"?!?
I didn't get an answer from her, but I'm hoping you can enlighten me. How do you NOT unconsicously pick up on these things? I've NEVER sat and thought _"Wait, how do I spell his name?"_ It's just, if I see a name 10, 100, or 1,000 times, I'm gonna know how to spell it right, automatically.
Ben Culture
The fact that you can't recognize an obvious joke, making fun of a celebrity's name, that was a sketch on SNL, tells me all I need to know. There is no need to look at anything else you say. Except for your insinuating that I'm the one without a sense of humor. Now THAT is fucking hilarious! Just try to picture Lorne Michaels and someone from the SNL cast (I don't remember who) talking about Ben Aflac and trying to remember his last name while Gilbert Godfrey (the guy who does the voice of the duck in the insurance commercials) is in the background saying "Affleck! Affleck!" Or is that brand of humor too smart for you? I've always enjoyed it. From calling a former Ohio Governor "S&Leste" to calling a famous lawyer "F U Bailey" to spelling a former president's name like the beer that's pronounced the same way to calling another one "Clintax" to calling the state Romney is from "Taxachusetts," this is one of the many forms of humor I enjoy. I've lost you completely, haven't I.
earlier today I promised a friend I'd never trash talk lord of the rings again in exchange for something, just sent him this
"I know you're a huge nerd of Potsie-like proportions..." has got to be the best line
Chicks like me are into nerds and LOTR!
NOT even with the torch of gondor
No one cares.
Thennnn...why comment? :P
Rachel Miller To tell you no one cares.
SICK BURN
i like both Star Wars and the Rings,both are good movies,and i like both medieval and sci-fi.
the first star wars,phantom menace was quite shit,as for the rings,don't know why people like the return of the king the most....i find the two towers the best of lotr.
couldn't agree more!
two towers was the absolutle worst. I don't like any of the LOTR movies at all but if I had to pick FOTR was the best.
Heck no, LOTR is better and what's the deal with the Storm Troopers? They can't aim for s***!
I can't get over how the customer looks like he has one heavy ass head
In his books, Tolkein explains why the eagles can't be counted on to simply carry out the mission of the ring. Jackson kind of dropped the ball by not adding any exposition that would clarify the significance of any potential eagle intervention. To casual watchers it looks like the eagles could have just flown Frodo over Amon Amarth and dropped the ring into the lava and the whole episode could have taken 5 days, but Tolkein goes to great lengths to explain why that was not a possibility.
I love both, but I prefer the 2 Star Wars trilogies over the Rings trilogy
You prefer the Star Wars prequels… over the Lord of the Rings? wow…. wow… wow… ……..
prequels were NOT bad. I loved them just as much as I did the originals. I could probably write a book on why I liked them. All the episodes work together to enhance each other. If you re-watch them, you'll find all these cool rhythmic story patterns. Their way better films than what people give them credit for.
yeah, I can understand why you like them, it's just… after watching Redlettermedia's prequel videos, I can't help see major problems with them
I saw them too. They still didn't sway me. Guess we'll have to agree to disagree.
I dig LOTR
ok...then you're not gonna get fucked with the torch of gondor. What's your point?
Seth Stone lmfao!!
Seth Stone Best Diss ever.
Fucking A
"your chicks are your left and right" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
One ring to rule them all...
LOTR > Star Wars, Randall couldn't even bring up an honest criticism of it, it makes sense since LOTR pretty much does everything better than star wars.
+Courtney Clark like?
lgjhmovies
Better soundtrack, better fights, better overarching story, better use of practical effects/cgi etc, I could go on but like I said, most things in LOTR are done better.
Courtney Clark this is all your opinion though
+lgjhmovies No one on TH-cam is allowed to have opinions!!!
+Courtney Clark Better soundtrack? what the hell
Star Wars prequels are better than Hobbit prequels
No they were equally stupid
Prequels in general are stupid.
+Theodore Hodbor yeah I was glad to see Yoda actually fight and to see Darth become the sith lord
DAFUQ...?!
The Hobbit better.
WHat I'm Sorry I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER MY 17 OSCAR
best line: oh i'am the geek look at you two, whipping out your preciouses !
"Even the trees walk in that fucking movie"
This scene goes on way to long and Randall's critique is just... dumb. All it is is walking? I hate those movies but it's way more than walking. It's epic battles. Forever. It is a forever long movie of nothing but forever long epic battles.
