You should do "Inherent Vice". You would probably love it. It's by Paul Thomas Anderson who did "Boogie Nights", "Magnolia", etc... all of which are modern classics.
Stan Lee's real-life love story with his wife is even better...he wrote a poem for her every year. 😢
You need to watch chasing Amy by Kevin Smith
14:09 - How do you somehow not clock Affleck’s character was the 25 yo who had recently tagged the 15 yo research girl?
Listen to his Hollywood babble on podcast it’s hysterical 😊
It was beautiful to have the Stan Lee/ Mallrats reference in Captain Marvel, given when it took place, and it made Mallrats director Kevin Smith insanely happy.
I was sooooo happy to see that in that movie. I felt like I was one of the few people watching the movie to understand that reference. I felt like Captain America in that moment.
Captain Marvel also premiered shortly after Stan Lee's death and Smith immediately broke down in tears.
**Edit - I wasn't sure if Smith knew about the scene in advance or not, I guess he did!
@@CrowTRobot Incorrect. Watch Kev's podcasts. He knew. Kevin was approached by Marvel Studios asking for outtake footage from Mallrats, as Stan's voice wasn't that strong when he filmed the Captain Marvel scene. He didn't know exactly what the scene was, but he knew it was a Mallrats related cameo.
@@firemoon got it, that makes sense.
when i saw that i fucking sobbed because i love kevin so much and i was so proud of him
Remember, in Captain Marvel, Stan The Man is reading the script for Mallrats on the Bus! 😉
The story of Stan Lee’s cameo is even cuter than you think, Kevin Smith: “He was adorable and everything you hoped. We had cue cards up for him because he was 74. They told us 'Be careful with him. He's 74 and could go at any minute.' Stan almost lived to be 96. He asked to include the P.S. with T.S., in which he reveals it was a fake story because he didn't want to hurt his wife's feelings.”
The funeral they to to in "Clerks" is for the same girl who drowned here. Most of the characters in Kevin Smith's movies are either related to each other, went to school together, or at least know each other in some way. For example, Gil the third contestant is played by the same guy who starred in "Clerks" and played Dante. Both characters have the same last name, Hicks, so they're implied to be brothers or cousins or something as a nod to the fact that the same actor plays them. Trish is the sister of one of the main characters from Kevin Smith's next movie "Chasing Amy," as well as the sister of the girl who hooks up with the douche who claims to be trainer and makes fun of Dante for being out of shape in "Clerks," who's named Rick Derris and is also mentioned in some of the other movies as this huge douche everybody knows. It's easy to miss, but they mention other characters' names in conversation and establish those connections.
You tell'em Steve Dave
Don’t forget the Rick Derris reference.
I think Randall and Brodie are related because they both tell stories about their crazy cousin Walter.
Although the actor is different, I have aways wondered if William here is supposed to be the same Willam that is nicknamed "Snowball" in Clerks. I mean, Willam is not exactly a common name and this is clearly not a large community.
@@greenpeasuit Yes they are the same character. I looked it up lol. I have seen these movies A LOT and never made that connection. Scott Mosier (Kevin Smith's long time producer and wonderful friend) played him in Clerks and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, but that's Ethan Suplee here.
This movie is actually set the day before Clerks. Julie Dwyre who dies in the pool is the same girl who's funeral Dante and Randle attend in Clerks.
one day turn around is quick for a death to funeral though.
I used to have a crush on Joey Lauren Adams (who played Gwen in Mallrats and is one of the main actors in Chasing Amy) back in highschool/college when these movies came out. That unique voice of hers is part of the reason.
Kevin Smith kept putting her in movies because they were together for years, personally I had a thing for Claire more than joey but they were both hot at the time,Claire is still fairly hot given her age especially.
Mallrats and Dogma are tied as my favourite movies from Kevin. You should watch Dogma next. All of his movies are pretty good even the romantic comedy "Chasing Amy"
It’s Dogma and Clerks for me!
"Dogma" should definitely be the next !!! 😀👍
What do you mean "even"? I thought it was Jersey Girl that was generally disliked.
@@StarkRG personally not a romcom movie watcher hence the "even". That being said I've seen Chasing Amy and would recommend, as she asked, it over Jersey Girl
Clerks and Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back for me.
Kevin Smith was the first person to put Stan Lee in a theatrical film. Lee's entire film cameo career basically started here. And I find that super sweet that Captain Marvel paid tribute to that.
Also the real Stan's girl never got away, they were lovingly married until his wife Joan passed a few years before Lee did. And they were just the cutest couple together.
I'm really excited to see you do Kevin Smith's films while not all of them hold up as great, and someone's gonna have to help you find his classic and imo best movie Dogma. But Smith's movies are super fun and heartfelt.
I'm pretty sure he did a cameo in the first TV Spiderman as well as the Hulk tv series. If you're talking strictly theatrical you may be right. But Stan Lee always had a way of honoring his staff and the works.
Lee appeared as himself in a 1990 movie called "The Ambulance", although I'm not 100% sure that it got a _theatrical_ release vs. straight to video. But safe to say that _Mallrats_ was the first time most people saw him in a movie.
@@fullmoonprepping4024 that's why I said Theatrical.
@@ANIpJs No, I get it, that's why I mentioned it. It wasn't for your benefit. My comment was more an addendum.
Actually Stan insisted that his cameo said he made up the girl that got away story for Brodie. He said he could never disrespect Joan by pretending there was a “one that got away”.
The funeral that gets interrupted in Clerks is the one for the girl dead in the beginning of this movie
Not only Stan Lee in this, in his cameo for Captain Marvel he's reading the script for Mallrats
so kevin smith is cannon in the mcu also stan lee is cannon in mcu.. thats so cool
I pointed at the movie screen when I saw that and almost shouted out "He's reading Mallrats!".
That 3D optical illusion picture (the sail boat ⛵) brings back my teenage memories
When I was a teenager, I would hang out at the mall where this movie was filmed (Eden Prairie, MN). I got kicked out more than once for roller skating down the handicapped ramp.
Me, every time after this movie: "That kid is back on the escalator!"
That, along with "Would you like a chocolate covered pretzel". lol
I love the Stan Lee cameo. He’s in it for a brief period of time yet he makes the movie even better than it would have been. This is the movie that made Jason Lee a star. Had “Deadpool” came out around this time, I think Jason would have been perfect for the part. Ryan Reynolds and him are very similar in how they talk, their mannerisms, etc.
Jeremy London is the twin brother of Jason London who was Randall “Pink” Floyd in “Dazed and Confused”.
Ben Affleck was also in that movie and he tended to cast as a-holes a lot back then. If you get to see “Chasing Amy” you will love it. It’s my favorite Kevin Smith film.
Whoa! I was today years old when I found out they are twin brothers. I just assumed it was the same person and just using a different stage name or something. lmao
Jason Lee also plays the villain in Incredibles. Mr. Incredible accidentally gets his name wrong twice, calling Brodie and Banky after his two Kevin Smith characters.
He's great on My Name is Earl. With Ethan Suplee. First few seasons of that show were really good.
Stan Lee gave very few interviews, but his last interview is the after credits scene from another View Askew film (maybe Bluntman, or Strike Back) with Kevin Smith.
Also, My Name is Earl s2 e13 is my favorite (I literally just finished watching it). -That's the one where Randy, Joy, Crabman, and Dotty get intros.
(I Lawls, Dotty)
Funny you should mention the Jason Lee/Ryan Reynolds thing...
A lot of people dump on Reynolds as an actor and don't have much good to say about Blade: Trinity, but I really enjoyed his part in that movie Precisely Because Ryan's performance as Hannibal King reminded me so much of Jason Lee as Brodie in Mallrats.
Fun fact. The bit where Stan Lee reveals the story he told Brodie was fake was added at Stans request as he didn't want his wife thinking she was his second choice
Dogma and Chasing Amy are two must see Kevin Smith movies.
Being an actor was actually a dream of Stan Lee's. He got many opportunities to cameo in various things, but never a really good speaking role. When Kevin Smith offered the role in MALLRATS, he thought it was a long shot because Stan Lee was a very busy guy. But in interviews Stan Lee said, when he heard that he had lines he got really excited. When he got to set, he actually requested that Kevin give him MORE LINES. Kevin and him rewrote the scenes to give Stan a much bigger role, and Stan has stated in many interviews that it was the highlight of his life and that Kevin made his long time dream come true. As a tribute to this moment, when they did Stan's cameo in Captain Marvel, they made it the REAL Stan Lee holding a script to Mallrats and practicing his lines on the train. Kevin had no idea and was brought to tears in the theater when he saw it.
Same with George Carlin. He wanted to be an actor and Smith helped fulfill those dreams.
@@tempsitch5632 Carlin was literally obsessed with the craft itself. Smith would tell stories about how he'd come up to him always talking about character motivations. For Lee it was a dream, but for Carlin it was a passion.
@@dj_daem0n that's touching as hell. thanks for sharing these! Carlin is a comedy/philosophical comedy hero to me. Stan seemed to be a class act as well. I'm glad they got to fulfill their dream/passion of acting thanks to another kind soul in Kevin Smith
This is the best cameo by Stan Lee forever till the end of time rest in peace Stan Lee thank you for all the awesome stuff
I freaking love this movie it's so random but so funny so hilarious The editing the jokes the pretzels in the poop joke with the pretzels ! The freaking kid on the elevator gets his pants caught best seen in the movie! Just an awesome movie
Yeah that Stink Palm scene is always the first thing that comes to mind when Mallrats is mentioned. LOL
So now you need to do Chasing Amy and (especially) Dogma, in that order to complete the Kevin Smith phase 1 movies (to use modern era speech)
Yes! I love it! Phase 1 of The View Askewniverse!
I would think Dogma would be in Phase 2
@@chrislambert9903That’s what I thought, then when I went back and watched the original Clerks, at the end of the credits, it says, “Jay and Silent Bob will return in Dogma”. Plus, it was the first script that Kevin Smith actually wrote.
She would have to get her hands on the Blu ray or DVD to see Dogma as it is not on streaming anywhere.
I am always enchanted by you wholesome reactions to things that those of us that were kid's of the 80's and young 20's in the 90's took as normal. And it all starts with the mall...
Things you should know about malls;
1. Most cities in the US had multiple malls and each had thier own unique idenities. "Let go to the good mall across town." Where I grew up there were 6 major malls each were vastly different from each other.
2. Instead of likes or followers of today's social media, you knew your place in the social heirarchy by how many people you "ran" into at the mall.
3. Parents would totally drop off their teenage kids at the mall for hours, unspervised. Hence the term and title "Mallrats".
4. What seemed to be "passing your girl/boyfriend around" goes more to the being around multiple friends of friends all the time. Hanging out at the mall meant you were around alot of people all the time. So many times what started as being friends with your girl/boyfriends best friend sometime morphed into romantic relations. And sometimes after breakups best friends asked if it was ok to date your ex. Well good friends asked, bad friends don't.
I know I have glossed over many other social ramifications of being a mallrat, so l leave it to you to let us know.
"A slient prayer to Stan Lee"
I met Brian OHalloran that plays one of the contestants. He is a very cool dude. I’m meeting Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes in July.
Clerks 2 and 3 are really good too. Also Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back are part of this universe, which are hilarious movies in my opinion. All he movies are decent, some better than others, but it's worth the wild ride.
The Stan Lee story was originally "real" in the movie but his wife wouldn't let him do the cameo unless they **explicitly** mention that he made it up for Brodie.
Which Kevin lovingly retells the story as Stan doubling his screen time.
Worth noting that he married Joan Boocock in 1947 and they remained happily married until her death in 2017. There's no reason to believe he had loads of comic book groupies throwing themselves at him.
@@cmlemmus494 Kevin has admitted this in every podcast where the subject is brought up.
@@cmlemmus494 there is one reason for "Comic Groupies throwing themselves at him" ... ... he is STAN LEE
The girl that died in the pool is the same girl whose funeral Randall ruins in Clerks. Confirmed by the clerks animated TV show.
While not a Kevin Smith movie, the cult classic Empire Records is from this same era, with a similar vibe, shares actors with the MCU and like Mallrats has some big stars before they were famous. Great flick!
Empire Records and Airheads are to of my favorite movies
it's got Mallrats actors in it?
@@daekry I think either they are confusing or making a joke because Joey Lauren Adams is confused with Renee Zellweger at times.
@@daekry Oh sh*t you’re right! I got 90’s Renée Zellweger confused with Joey Lauren Adams! 😅 In my defence they look practically identical in these two movies.
@@TimothySmiths No I genuinely got them mixed up. 😅 Some 90’s traditions never die I guess. To be fair they never looked more similar than in these two movies. 😅
Thanks Mary. 3rd suitor was guy who played Dante in Clerks. Hard to recognise in colour without his goatee. Just Chasing Amy, Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Clerks 2 to go. They're all connected in the Smithverse. Jersey Girl not connected but it'll have you balling.
View Askewniverse!
One of the other suitors that got stoned was the hockey-playing buddy that wanted gatorade.
3rd suitor is Gil Hicks, cousin of Dante Hicks. There are several different “Hicks” throughout the View Askewniverse, all of whom are more successful than Dante.
Don't forget about Clerks 3.
Mary, you figured out Silent Bob.
The only times he speaks is when he's imparting some wisdom.
My childhood and Perfect 90s nostalgia with a boatload of geek culture references, cameos and sparkling dialogue. Fans of The Big Bang Theory, IT Crowd, Marvel and DC will enjoy this immensely
Stan Lee was practicing his lines on the bus in Captain Marvel.
I'm so happy you did this movie! One of my faves! Now for Dogma (if you can find it). You kind of need to see them all (in order) to get the little references, but my next favourite (after this one) is Clerks 2 and I really hope you do that eventually. What a film!
Met Kevin Smith in person a couple of times when I was working in Vegas. Coolest, nicest guy you’ll ever meet. Spent a few minutes talking movies with me and seemed genuinely happy to do it.
2:45 Kevin Smith predicted Affleck playing the Dark Knight himself! 😂😂😂
Stan was happily married for many decades. Joan was the reason he even wrote the Fantastic Four, according to legend. She died a year before he did. Her death, more than anything else, likely led to his own.
That and stans handlers making him do non stop signings and appearances which was sucking the life out of him Kevin Smith tried to get him away from those people by offering to have Stan live with him near the end
This movie is great, but Kevin Smith's next, Chasing Amy, is his masterpiece IMO. Can't wait to see your reaction to it!
Chasing Amy is one of my absolute favorite films. I put it up there with "Star Wars" or "Godfather" ... it is a BEAUTIFUL DISASTER
Funniest comment I've ever seen from Mary after watching her for a year or more now ...
Looking all dejected and saying "it was probably the chocolate pretzels covered in poo"
I actually Laughed out loud.
Notice that two of the main characters are Brodie and Quint, like another movie you have seen.
RIP Shannen Doherty (1971-2024)
The actress you like is Claire Forlani. She was in a great movie with Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins called Meet Joe Black
I'll admit it's been a few years ago now.. I think the Fall of 2013 before Guardians of the Galaxy was released... But I met Michael Rooker and got to see up close that he still gets gifts from fans and is very very excited to get chocolate covered pretzels. Made me laugh.
Dogma is probably the best.
The buddy Christ!
Jason Lee is underrated in his ability to deliver shouting dialogue. He's up there with the likes of Tom Cruise, Samuel L. Jackson and Leonardo DiCaprio. The "four way road" diagram in Chasing Amy is prime Jason Lee.
Almost Famous should be in your list of movies if you haven't watched it already.
Chasing Amy is next in the order and most people love it. I’m pretty sure it’s his highest rated movie. Personally, my favorite is Dogma. But they are all great through Clerks 2. You can’t go wrong with any of them in my opinion.
Great reaction Mary. I am glad you enjoyed this movie so much. It was my first Kevin Smith film and I wanted to see it when it came out because Stan Lee was in it. Stan had previously done a lot of narration on many previous Marvel based Saturday morning cartoons.
Other films in this series, in release order are;
1. Clerks,
2. Mallrats,
3. Chasing Amy(Smith's most personal film and kind of a romantic comedy drama),
4. Dogma (Smith's hilarious diatribe about religion),
5. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
6. Clerks 2
7. Jay and Silent Bob Reboot
8. Clerks 3
The Clerks series is unoffically known as the "View Askewniverse" after Kevin Smith's production company View Askew productions. The girl dying in the pool is actually mentioned in Clerks. Gil was played by Brian O'Halloran who also played Dante Hicks in Clerks and one of Kevin Smith's friends, Walt Flanagan, had a cameo in line at the comic shop. He also played several different customers in Clerks and would eventually manage Kevin Smith's real life Comic Shop in New Jersey and feature in the reality show Comic Book Men. Many actors appear in numerous films as different characters. Ben Affleck(Shannon Hamilton), Jason Lee(Brodie), and Joey Lauren Adams(Girl in the changing room) all lead Chasing Amy as different characters.
Clerks 2 is definitely a must watch
Claire Forlani is probably the closest thing I’ve ever had to a celebrity crush. Meet Joe Black came out when I was 16. You should add it to the list.
SAME. And in The Rock, as Sean Connerys daughter
Same, dude. Same! Now in her 50’s, she’s still my celebrity crush… 😅
@@HoopleHeadUSA That’s right! I forgot about that.
"Mystery Men"
RIP Shannen Doherty ❤
thanks for watching the theatrical cut
Ashleigh Burton watched the extended version.
@@Madbandit77 i think the theatrical cut is the better version and i'm glad she reacted to that one
Kevin Smith made one of my favouite comments about fandom: "Everyone geeks out over someone." Can't recall if it was an interview or podcast, but his point was that everyone, no matter how high they might be in their respective industry, was once a kid and had heroes. Everyone has things they love but can't do themselves. Comic book artists geek out over actors. Actors geek out over singers. Singers geek out over best-selling authors. etc. The great thing about the big, cross-industry conventions is that even the celebrities can meet their heroes.
The romance dynamics of Chasing Amy are very 90s and probably haven't aged well, but Dogma is a classic and needs to be seen if only for Mr Alan Rickman as Metatron, Herald of the Almighty, Voice of the One True God.
One of his most under appreciated roles. And some wonderful acting from Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, as well.
Watch next: Chasing Amy(You WILL love that one), Dogma (if you can find it), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks 2, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot and Clerks 3.
The girl that drowned is the girl who’s funeral Randall and Dante went to in Clerks.
loved the reaction looking forward to more Kevin smith movies.
There's a 1990 Eric Roberts movie called 'The Ambulance' in which Roberts is an artist for Marvel Comics and Stan Lee has a few scenes as himself. James Earl Jones was also in it. It's not a fantastic movie, but it's not bad.
You should definitely check out Dogma. It was light years ahead of its time, and as much as I love Mallrats, Dogma is Kevin Smith’s masterpiece. It’s funny, but gets you thinking. I don’t want to spoil it at all, so I’ll leave it at that.
You should watch the whole series (chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and silent bob strike back, Clerks 2, Jay and silent bob reboot, Clerks 3)
“Brodie, I'd give it all up, all of *it* , for just one more day with her”
Even though Stan’s story was fake it’s still a great moment and great quote. I think him creating characters like Doctor Doom and The Hulk to help him deal with his heartbreak is brilliant but also sad.
Mallrats is one of my favorite comedies of all-time! I love this film, I quote it frequently lol.
Check out "Chasing Amy" that's another Kevin Smith film. It features that blonde chick ha ha
I saw an interview with Kevin Smith where he talked about playing Silent Bob. Basically he said that he's a terrible actor and the more he talks on film the more that comes out.
Chasing Amy is a good movie but way different from these first two. My all time favorite Kevin Smith movie is Dogma. Many of the same actors, but the only characters that are repeated are Jay and Silent Bob.
Consider me fullfilled.
"Chasing Amy" and "Dogma" are must see movies for Kevin Smith. Very funny, but very controversial. "Dogma" had religious protesters outside of a theater it was playing at and Kevin Smith joined them with his own sign bashing his movie. He even did a news interview that you can probably find on TH-cam.
Continue the Journey with "Chasing Amy"... But More important "JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!"
I'm just now randomly watching this the day after Shannon Daugherty died. RIP!
This movie captured exactly how we were in the North Eastern United States( New York, New Jersey and New England)back in the mid 90’s. A great time capsule
Stan Lee played with your emotions. And got stink-palmed for it. Nobody notices that.
You need to check out Chasing Amy, the blonde girl in this movie is Amy.
Dogma, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, and Zack & Miri Make a Porno are all pretty funny. He also put out a few DVDs called "An Evening With Kevin Smith" where he just tells stories in front of a crowd which are interesting.
3:30 this death is referenced in "Clerks". So Mallrats talkes place BEFORE Clerks.
Actually Dwyer’s death was the day before, so Mallrats and Clerks are set in the same day.
This one is fun!
all of kevin smith's movies take place in the same universe. Great reaction
Tell ‘em Steve, Dave!
Suitor 3 is the actor who played Dante I. clerks
Watch the whole View Askew universe it’s all connected and worth the time!
If you want to see another good film with Shannon Doherty, may I suggest 1989's "Heathers,' which also stars WInona Ryder and Christian Slater.
22:25 At that moment in the movie, he turns to her and asks, "Brenda?" to which she responds by hitting him and saying, "Dick!"
Little nod to Shannen Doherty's role on "Beverly Hills, 90210", which she had just recently been fired from at the time due to on-set hostility.
Apparently, that line was unscripted and Shannen's reaction was genuine. It would understandably be a pretty touchy subject for her so soon after.
One you might want to check out is jay and silent bob strike back
"I did not see that coming!" Neither did Renee!
I had heard about clerks because I was into cult classics at a young age but I saw mallrats first and it's still one of my favorites ❤
They filmed this like 10 minutes from where I live. Mall looks nothing like that anymore.
That reaction to the stink palm scene had me rolling.
If you get the chance, the DVD commentary track for Mallrats is maybe even funnier than the movie itself.
7:34 and that how they got the cast for my name is earl.
This and Jay and Silent Bob Strike back are my favorites from this series, but Dogma is also great.
I’m so sad that none of the reactors ever get the “Right at mid backstroke.” connection. 😂
Stan was actually very devoted to his wife Joan. They were married for 65 years until her death.
I saw this movie in the theater on opening day. The stink palm scene had half the audience gagging and the other half crying laughing (like me). I’ve seen this movie 100 times and still laugh at the same jokes. 😂
It's sad watching this knowing that Shannon Doherty died a month ago at the age of 53. RIP :(
Your reaction When Willam sad you dumb bast*rd.😂 I couldn't stop laughing. Ethan Suplee nails that line. It's so brutal it's funny.
OMG!!! YESS!!! YES!!!! YES!!!!
Chasing Amy next, PLEASE!!!
Also: The release order is..... Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy. Dogma (though you'll need a physical DVD as it's in Digital Limbo), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks II, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, Clerks III.
Jersey Girl goes between Jay and Silent Bob and Clerks II. Of course, with the exception of the direct sequels, there really isn't any need to follow an order while watching.
Dogma's available on the Internet Archive - I'd link to it, but I think YT deletes comments with links.
You clearly never watched any dating shows growing up, they don't let the chick see the dudes or the dude see the chicks (depending on which way they went) till the end once they single person has chosen from the 3.
Chasing Amy, then Dogma after for the next ones in the series! Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back after that 😎
If you get to Clerk's 2 And 3, the one side character Elias, The actor married the actress who plays Trish the Dish. Fun fact.
Unfortunately, that story that Stan tells is not true. In fact, when Kevin Smith first showed the script to Stan Lee, Stan's initial response was, "I wouldn't say this shit!"
Silent Bob saying a line in the movies wasn't supposed to be a thing. It started in Clerks due to a short budget and limited amount of film. The lasagna line that Silent Bob says was supposed to be delivered by Jay but he wasn't able to get it right so Kevin Smith did it himself. It then became a thing for him to make a statement of significance in each movie.
If you liked Mallrats, you might also like Airheads. It’s made around the same era and is about a rocker band and has Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and Adam Sandler.
Funny trivia: the "Dirt-Mall" flea market they go to is now, ironically, a movie theater.
When this movie was made, big butts weren’t popular lol it was an insult to a woman if her ass was fat. Also malls were the place to hang in the 90s.
Chasing amy will always be the best Kevin Smith movie. Should def check it out.
Your reaction to Michael Rooker being stink palmed- I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!
Mary, you should watch the Extended Edition of MALLRATS. It includes an entirely different opening (a 12-minute prologue that better introduces the main characters) as well as is a stronger film.
Now you've got to watch Dogma, and then Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.
Mallrats was the first Kevin Smith movie I ever saw. I fell in love instantly. Even Kevin's bad movies are just barely below average imo. Dogma is in my top 10 all time favorite movies. Mallrats is definitely top 50.
