Looks AWESOME!! LOL!!

I'm going to have to marathon the the entire movies. Seems like ages since I last saw them.

Silent Bob in the Mk 1 Iron Man armor :hrt::hrt::hrt:
 
Lol. That trailer was great. Love that Kevin Smith is going back to the View Askewniverse.
 
Did you see the last one? Might not be your type of humor. Strikes Back was probably the smartest jab at the industry I had seen that year. It was like a live action Tiny Toons/Animaniacs.
 
So with Affleck, that makes two Batman’s. Who’s the third?
Looking at the cast list, I think the third is Diedrich Bader, who voiced Batman on The Brave and the Bold. Makes sense, he was also in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
 
Who was the old guy with the beard at the end? He looked familiar but I couldn’t place him.
 
I really hope this ends up being good. As a fan of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back along with some of their earlier stuff I'd hate for this not to deliver. Kevin Smith has changed so much over the years though that I honestly don't know what to expect, but at least it looks like him and Mewes are having a ton of fun.
 
What the hell?? Why's the trailer 3 damn minutes long?? I had to stop 2 mins in. I loved what I saw so that's cool.

But I kinda feel like this is a worthless endeavor. I mean All I wanted to see was Jay hurling fat shaming insults at Bob. So if it's not there then what is even the point?? :(
 
They stopped at some point?
 
Ben stopped talking to him for about a decade. I'm happy they're friends again and Ben's in the movie.

Watched and loved Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Strikes Back etc. Was a big Smith fan.

But it’s 2019, and this **** looks so incredibly tired and self indulgent.
 
I liked fat Kevin Smith a lot more.
This one didn't look funny, tbh. Dunno why. And I really like Clerks 1-2, Jay & Bob 1 and other prime Smith movies. But maybe the actual film will work better.

I think a lot of it is to do with the fact that Smith has rather wasted his talent away smoking weed and doing podcasts.

They guy had a genuinely brilliant handle of characterisation and dialogue, and his strongest work was always based around that, rather than plot and set piece. His body of work has gradually got worse, because he seems incapable of growing up, and writing honest, interesting stories about people of his own age. That’s where he excelled - telling stories about people like him. But instead of still doing that, he’s constantly living in the past.... rehashing his own work, and making poor genre movies that don’t suit his abilities.

I’d love a Kevin Smith movie that talked about what it’s like to be an aging American white male in a society that’s moving away from people like him being the centre of attention.

But instead we’re getting dick jokes and weed still. Crass and dull.

:up: Great summary. I'd love that too. His 90s till mid 00s stuff had that kind of insight. After Clerks 2 I honestly believed that in a decade or so we will get a new chapter that will have his geek/nerd characters deal with middle age and present day society and pop culture. It's somewhat there with the whole reboot topic, but we will see....
