When you interview Kevin Smith, he will just as much interview you, you don't get anything out of Kevin in less than 25 minutes because he'll go on three tangents and then start asking you questions
Im being completely serious when i say not only is this the best kevin smith interview ive ever seen but id go as far to say this is one of the best, if not most enjoyable, interview ive ever seen
My dad was 100% blocked on one side and 70% on the other. He made it too. The doctor told us that if it had happened 5 years earlier, he would have died. Glad you both made it. Science is awesome.
@Benjamin Farrington As a journalist, that shit is super fucking hard to not do. I have forced myself not to because it absolutely ruins phone interviews. That said, definitely more acceptable in a long form "Conversation" interview.
Typically, that's a cue from the interviewer. They are supposed to use it to warn the guest they are about to ask another question or make a comment. The obnoxious part here is that he is just doing the "mhm" constantly, and Kevin **really** loves talking.
I always love watching Jay with my kids at the comic store. I told my kids what a good actor he is. Bad boy in the movies....... carting my baby in his arms around the store, folding my carriage putting it in my car. So happy for REBOOT!!!!
How funny that the guy who makes these crazy, awesome movies with more cussing, potty humor and all that.....turns out to be the most caring, sensitive person in Hollywood. I think you're great Kevin. I have loved you long time....lol
"I think its so telling that you still think of yourself as a king... Of course I'd love to come play" that could be the most perfect response to a text message, ever.
Mike Conner clerks 3 would be amazing. I think clerks 2 was my introduction to jay and silent bob and Kevin smith as a whole. Possssibly I saw jay and bob strike back first can’t remember.
@TheDude Lebowski he did well with the jay and silent bob reboot, as in it was funny, but the woke sjw nonsense was out of control. He does have it in him to do a good mallrats reboot, just as long as it's non political and he just sticks to the funny.
To be honest, as much as I loved the movie I only have two complains: 1) They broke the fourth wall a bit too much. 2) No Mark Hamill cameo. Regardless, it's easily his best movie since Z&M and I hope he can use the momentum moving into Clerks III.
Mr Smith absolutely love this man! Grew up watching all his movies and I even enjoyed the off View askew ones like red state, cop out etc but the early stuff real touch my heart..thank you for your amazing work
I've heard him tell the same stories in so many other interviews almost the same way . Every time he tells them again it seems like he's telling them for the first time. He's an amazing story teller. Love this guy.
ive literally sat and listened to him do a seminar for like 4 hrs just taking random questions,and telling stories and it doesnt wear out at all. dude can shoot the shit with the best
I'm glad I'm not the only weirdo here listening to Kevin tell the same stories over and over again but completely fresh every time 😂😂 I think this is hour 3 or 4 of Kevin Smith story time videos haha, I should go do something else
@@ihateusernamesgrrr nope lmao its so good i think, cause he seems to always be sincere about everything he says, always shows ppl he works with made love, and is still makeing the cool shit that us silent bob fans get laughs out of, and is passionate about the same things i am in life (our kids,movies,pop culture references/jokes, comics etc.) and always has an interestingand intelligent thought to share. not many ppl can hold my attention like him
@@moo-snuckle I'm 100% with you there, KS is everything positive that any human could be. I've been a fan of his movies since my age was single digits and now here I am at 33 still a fan, and not for nostalgia reasons, just because I actually love his movies.. it's only in the last few months I found his TH-cam channel and all these interviews where I started to realise he's actually a truly great man. I honestly can't say enough positive things about him, and I don't fanboy over celebs, and I don't usually stick to one thing online, but can 100% waste a day watching Kevin Smith videos and not feel it's wasted haha
Now Kevin's hitting me with the feels. Lost my dad suddenly 14 years ago. We connected the same way. Even ruined the secret of how superman flies at a young age lol. But we mainly connected with horror.
At 19-minutes, Kevin Was Right. While Watching BOTH "Logan" & "Avengers: Endgame" I TOO Felt As Though My Dad Was There With Me, BUT ALSO That He Was Saying Goodbye. A MUCH-NEEDED Closure If You Will. Since We NEVER Had A Funeral For Him. It's MY Belief That: "Jay & Silent Bob: Reboot" is A Magnum Opus For The ViewAskewVerse Which Sets the Stage for Keanu's Closing Act; "Bill & Ted; Face the Music". I'll End on THIS NOTE: I Too Believe That "Clerks II" WAS The Best ViewAskew Film, With "Mallrats" Being A VERY Close 2nd.
I didn't know about the walrus...I just thought it was gonna be a comedy...it BLEW MY MIND...never mind m. Night Sham...not knowing 'bout the walrus till it happened in the movie... PRICELESS!!!
I watched Tusk, thinking it was a werewolf type movie with a werewalrus. That movie absolutely blew my mind, I was not expecting that. I’m glad the trailer wasn’t so spoiler-y.
Silent Bob ....hmmmm??? And jay looks great 😁 sooooo good too see you guys!!! Looking forward to your movie. Been a clerk and could relate in every way 😘 best of times !!!
i think it also helped that marvel and disney gave personal props to kevin in captain marvel. other studios are of course gonna do whatever he wants now. kevin not joining marvel was his greatest trick to keep himself relevant
So Yahoo's logic is let's have the person talking sounds like their off mic? 🤔 FFS. If it wasn't for Kevin I would be sacking this video off. Yahoo no one uses your search and now no one uses your channel!
The stereo field is too wide. They were panned too far left and right. I normally would never pan a vocal setting like this with 2 people left and right unless their voices sounded too similar and never would I pan them that far apart unless there were more people on set. And yes, Kevin Smith sounded out of phase somehow. Probably bad mic/XLR or room mics out of phase with him? But it really wasn't so bad, I watched the entire thing with headphones, just a little distracting.
@@10100rsn Honestly it really should all be centred. Going left and right in the stereo channel doesn't make sense when the viewer is looking straight on at the speaker. You could maybe shift slightly left or right depending on who's speaking to give it some depth if you really want to but it should still be mostly centred. Panning left or right is only useful for off screen voices and sounds. When you're subjects are right in front of you on screen, keep it centred. My guess is whoever synced the sound probably doesn't do it very often and just thought that one guy goes left channel and the other guy goes right channel.
I loved these guys since the first one that came out a long a** time ago I loved the reboot movie very good and made me laugh it helped me get out my a hole mood lol
Dude fuckin a, Great interview!!! Thanks KEVINS. Loved the sequel. Wish it was done a few years ago but eh it was probably ment to be like this. Great questions!!!
Great interview! But a note to production, remix the audio. It’s annoying to hear one person in the left ear and one in the right. Mix it to toward the center.
To "fix" the audio issue, you can copy and paste the url into VLC, start playing it, then right click the video then navigate: Audio -> Stereo mode -> Mono
Don't want to undermine the point, obviously the films have a tonne of value to those that like them and that's totally fine, but even as Kevin is describing these films, it really kind of makes it sound more like a ride, not less. Obviously, that's fine, it sounds like a great ride for the folks that like it, yeah, that doesn't make Scorsese wrong, it just means you like the ride.
Lulaire Noroub On the other hand, you think about how how he made it and with whom and the fact that, to this day, he still gets to work with his good friends like Mewes and O’Halloran and Affleck and Damon, and to have the luxury of working with his wife and daughter, that’s a pretty damn good deal.
That doesn't mean Scorsese is right either. .... It's his opinion, and opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink except your own.
not to make light of one of the few people that give me hope in humanity, having a heart attack... but of course, only kevin smith would be told by a doctor," you're doing it wrong, you should be in a lot of pain." that is totally something I'd see him coming up with for a character.
Jay and Silent Bob or just like my best friend and I and we’ve known each other just as long. We went to every movie. I would be the Jay in the relationship, but I RL I talk as much as Kevin Smith.
This is how you interview Kevin Smith, give him time, way better than him trying to cram everything he just said into 5-10 minutes on a talk show...
and don't give him a microphone...
well if you give him 5-10 minutes you can be lucky if you get to ask A question, you might not even get beyond the greeting
When you interview Kevin Smith, he will just as much interview you, you don't get anything out of Kevin in less than 25 minutes because he'll go on three tangents and then start asking you questions
His appearances on the joe Rogan podcast are my favourite ever. The dude is just so genuine and so good to listen too.
@@terryfeynmanyuuu
28:08-28:18: Was not aware that Kevin enjoys DnD. Can you imagine playing a game with him as DM? The story-telling would be mind-blasting.
I applaud your ability to use mind-blasting in a comment with DnD.....it took balls
@@icanfartloud 😂 Thank you. It's true, the balls were 10 foot in radius.
@Max Headroom 😂 Damn, I sure missed an opportunity there! Must have rolled a Nat 1 on Initiative
Kevin could interview himself for an hour and id still watch it...
Chris Swiger he’s fucking awesome to listen too
HE PRETTY MUCH HAS DOZENS OF TIMES WITH HIS PODCASTS 😂
There's 2 guys i can listen to every day and be thoroughly entertained:Kevin Smith and Joey Diaz.
Big Kev does that for a living. He tours and just talks.
tru
"I don't look good in red hats" Bless you Kev.
True. But I also believe he's a bit too old for xidens Hitler youth.
Im being completely serious when i say not only is this the best kevin smith interview ive ever seen but id go as far to say this is one of the best, if not most enjoyable, interview ive ever seen
Mackey Whaleboy have you seen his joe Rogan appearances. They are great also
My dad was 100% blocked on one side and 70% on the other. He made it too. The doctor told us that if it had happened 5 years earlier, he would have died. Glad you both made it. Science is awesome.
Science is indeed awesome. Glad your dad made it through, and I hope he’s still doing well. Happy Father’s Day!
Gotta love the "mmmm mhmmm" sounds in my left ear, and Kevin Smith on my right ear....
@Benjamin Farrington As a journalist, that shit is super fucking hard to not do. I have forced myself not to because it absolutely ruins phone interviews. That said, definitely more acceptable in a long form "Conversation" interview.
th-cam.com/video/7QgHlbNBWnQ/w-d-xo.html
It’s a listening technique to show that you’re active listening. It’s a hard habit to break.
Typically, that's a cue from the interviewer. They are supposed to use it to warn the guest they are about to ask another question or make a comment.
The obnoxious part here is that he is just doing the "mhm" constantly, and Kevin **really** loves talking.
I get the need to be an 'active listener' but why are their voices coming from two different earphones. Weird!
I always love watching Jay with my kids at the comic store. I told my kids what a good actor he is. Bad boy in the movies....... carting my baby in his arms around the store, folding my carriage putting it in my car. So happy for REBOOT!!!!

I could listen to Kevin Smith talk all day such an interesting well-spoken dude
Man, I cannot wait to watch Randall finally make his mark after all this time. That character deserves his moment.
funny thing is randall is actually kevin smiths real life character. he based randall off of himself.
@@grimhildr5911 No, he based him off of his friend Brian Johnson.
Randall made his mark at the end of Clerks 2...
@@docd-monik4380 You can see it that way but I think his story isn't over.
@@grimhildr5911 Dante is based on Kev. Randall is based on his friend Brian Johnson.
I'm so glad he's still with us :D
Kevin Smith is living my dream. Comics and movies. Loving life 😁
Interviewers: how many cameos did it take?
Kevin: All of them
"I think its so telling that you still think of yourself as a king... Of course I'd love to come play"
that could be the most perfect response to a text message, ever.
"I gotta make a reboot!!" "Theres better reasons to live." Yeah, like Clerks 3 and Mallrats 2!
Mike Conner clerks 3 would be amazing. I think clerks 2 was my introduction to jay and silent bob and Kevin smith as a whole. Possssibly I saw jay and bob strike back first can’t remember.
He's been working on Clerks 3 & Mall Rats 2 scripts while he's been under quarantine. They're coming, & he's going to release them like he did Reboot.
@TheDude Lebowski he did well with the jay and silent bob reboot, as in it was funny, but the woke sjw nonsense was out of control.
He does have it in him to do a good mallrats reboot, just as long as it's non political and he just sticks to the funny.
To be honest, as much as I loved the movie I only have two complains:
1) They broke the fourth wall a bit too much.
2) No Mark Hamill cameo.
Regardless, it's easily his best movie since Z&M and I hope he can use the momentum moving into Clerks III.
1 no no no
2) yes yes
Mallrats 2 is what I’m living for

How does he have a Mighty Taco shirt? No one outside of Buffalo, New York knows what that is. I love it.
I love watching Kevin Smith talk.
Kevin Smith is everywhere!
Because he's promoting the new movie!
Him with that stupid jacket
naturalmystery a movie that isn’t screening anywhere near me. Hopefully it will be available on Blu-ray or something relatively soon.
Stephen Siegel that wasn’t a complaint.....
He hustle like the best!!!
Kevin Smith NEVER has a boring story.
Kevin's Q&A DVD ('An Evening with Kevin Smith') was his best work.
Chasing Amy is one of my favorite movies EVER!!!
Basically Kevin Smith is a nice guy who gets along with everyone.
That’s how he gets the actors he gets.
Kevin Smith is the only person who doesn’t ever shut up and not have a lot to say about something and it’s not annoying.

I'm kind of glad he remembers Big Fish. I really liked that movie ...sometimes I feel like the only one.
I gotta watch every interview even though it’s basically the same stories each time.
Sooo clerks 3 is confirmed?! Jeff Anderson is in
Yup, and apparently mallrats 2
Yesssss bitch !!!!
Yes so is Mall Rats 2
Jeff Anderson was my big question too!
I love his. Movies
I didn't know about the walrus...I just thought it was gonna be a comedy...it BLEW MY MIND...never mind m. Night Sham...not knowing 'bout the walrus till it happened in the movie...

Real Genius is a great 80's movie to add to your list folks. Trust him

Did they ask him to join?
Host got bleeped before Kevin, impressive.
The audio is stereo in the worst ways...

The idea of Val Kilmer informing Kevin Smith that he's played Batman before... what a scrumptious morsel of not reading the room 🤣
Yes I think all kids who LOVE movies inherited it. Me and my dad it was Tuesday night. 1 dollar Tuesdays in White Bear Lake, MN.
I didnt understand the title and thought he was going to answer how 'Kevin Smith landed all those Kevin Smith cameos' in the movie
Don't be modest Kevin, it definitely came together as a masterpiece
Mr Smith with his snoochie boochie knees on display. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know Yahoo, you could improve the sound and replace it without having to re-upload. TH-cam allows you to do that!
So awesome!!!
I saw this the reboot and it was great for fan service. I wish Shannen Doherty was in it though.
Shannen's been fighting cancer for the past few years. She is now in remission, but I think she's not ready to return to acting yet. :(

One of the coolest dudes in film
Why is that giant coat wearing Kevin Smith?
Thanks Jay and silent Bob 😂😁😎👉🤝💛✌️🤘🙏👍💯
I'll let all of the audio issues slide by, simply because he's wearing a Mighty Taco shirt. #Buffalove
Yesss!! Hahaha so happy someone else noticed
It’s clear why this guy is a master of writing monologues. He can’t help himself
Mighty Taco!? Rep 716!!! Good on ya!
Kevin is a legend
Can’t sleep on my right side with this video. Have to stay on the left
Kevin is a guy who likes to talk, but at least he has something to say.
Mighty Taco! Love the shirt!
Hearing an interview mixed in stereo is kind of weird

"I'm HACKman, man!"
Jeff came back? This is brilliant news! ...
Mighty Taco!!!!!! makes me want to go back home yum.
Where is this filmed?? Dude has a mighty taco shirt on that's a Buffalo ny staple lol
i didnt expect the movie to be as good as it was either its fuckin FIRE
great interview... if the interviewer would shut up while Kevin is talking!
Nice mighty shirt, Kevin.
lmao lost it thinking about how his mother got angry that they were talking shit about him in the scene
Mighty taco rules... and so does Kevin Smith. Love that guy. Short list of dudes I'd like to hang out with.
