"I decided, prior to the release of Zack and Miri Make a Porno (which I’ve yet to see) to watch a few Kevin Smith flicks. But instead of doing them in the usual order (chronological by release) I decided to just watch both Clerks and Clerks 2 and then, because I had just been talking about it with FilmCouch’s Paul Moore, Mallrats. Can’t say as I got much new out of them, though this was also, I think, the first time I’d watched both Clerks movies back-to-back for some reason. < "

"Kevin Smith has a right to be pretty bitter right now. For years, he's been blending raunch and romance with equal measure, to middling box office results. From his grungy little breakthrough, “Clerks,” in 1994, to the polished “Chasing Amy” to the not-as-bad-as-it's-rumored-to- be “Jersey Girl,” Smith has never shied from the messy sexual side of relationships in dialogue that some of the closest couples dare not discuss. Meanwhile, writer/director Judd Apatow snuck into the kingdom and stole the crown, basically covering the very same turf in films such as “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” “Knocked Up” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall.”

"Seth Rogen & Elizabeth Banks In “This Is Not Sex” Directed By Tony Kaye from Mean Magazine on Vimeo. It’s a tired gag, but filmmaker Tony Kaye (American History X) has fun with the “it’s not what you think” shtick and manages to make it work better than normal. However, whether it’s actually thanks to him or to the ever-lovable Elizabeth Banks and Seth Rogen is unclear. What is clear, at least, is that this promotional video for Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make a Porno

"Kevin Smith has directed his most emotional film with a decidedly non-emotional title with Zack & Miri Make A Porno. Rife with penis and poop jokes, it’s not really a departure from his entire Askew-niverse, but the film does hit some emotional chords that Smith had only really hit before in Chasing Amy. Granted, I wasn’t a big fan of Clerks 2 (although I loved the original), but I found myself really liking Zack & Miri. In our in-depth interview, Kevin Smith talks about Jason Mewes’ penis and Ben Affleck’s reaction to it, dealing with the MPAA’s obsession with poop, and how this movie came together. He also "

"I am feeling a bit grumpy at the moment so I am going to revisit the subject of my first post -- that of a director pilfering through their own material. There are a number of excellent examples of this but I am going to limit myself to two directors. The reason for this is that both of these men, Robert Rodriguez and Kevin Smith have had a very large impact on me. My current career path has been shaped largely by these directors which is why their transgressions pain me so. First, Mr. Smith. Once upon a time there was a directory who made a crappy (production-wise) little movie called Clerks. It is not a pretty movie nor is it an interesting-looking film. Clerks has very few merits except the fact that it is quite funny and original and it somehow manages to convey the joy and exuberence of it's creator. There is a quality to Clerks, a "I just wanted to make a movie" attitude that is infectious. This film feels to me to emboy the very spirit of Charles Foster Kane in Citizen Kane ... "

"Now that we know, courtesy of Stu at Defamer, that Werner Herzog’s remake of Abel Ferrara’s Bad Lieutenant is not so much a remake as it is like a new entry into a franchise, a la the James Bond movies, we at SpoutBlog wonder what other ’90s indie favorites could be continued with similar yet “completely different” installments. I remember back in the day thinking that Clerks should be a franchise, each film focusing on a different crappy job experience, but now that Clerks II has come and gone, that idea will likely never be realized. Of course, the concept of sequels unrelated to the original aren’t new — just look at any sequel title substituting the number 2 (or II) with the word Too. But nevertheless, here’s a few suggestions for other crazy foreign auteurs to take into consideration: Kids - Looking back, Larry Clark’s then-shocking debut is pretty tame. Nowaday "

"Dante doesn't deserve such a great name, but Randall is the coolest uncool guy ever. Jay and Silent Bob are of course as hot as ever, and I can't wait to see what Kevin Smith comes up with next. I love how he can just through shit together and turn it into a masterpiece. "

"More confessions: I am also a Kevin Smith fan. Not a big one. I own the original five View Askiewniverse films. Some are better than others. I tend to rate them, my favorite to least favorite, in this order: Dogma, the original Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Mallrats, Chasing Amy. Say what you want about Jay and Bob Strike Back, but I thought it was a fitting end (or what I thought was the end) of this odd assortment of films, which celebrate male insecurities, fanboyism, and vulgarity in ways that should not appeal to me, yet they do. Some of the films broached complicated subjects (faith in Dogma, love and sex in Chasing Amy), while others were pure joyrides of testosterone (Jay and Bob). Yet, what charms me, a female, about Kevin Smith and his unique sense of humor is the balance he strikes between the vulgar and mundane with the intelligent, witty, astute, and even tender or sentimental. Jay and Bob are comic relief, but they have heart, can be gentle, and are ... "

"By Tricia Olszewski Maybe, in the 12 years since Kevin Smith’s Clerks came out, we as viewers have become more accustomed to seeing the film’s distinguishing characteristics combined onscreen: pop-culture obsessions, filthy words, and even filthier scenarios. Smith, naturally, became his own imitator, continuing to examine his fixations in his subsequent movies. But even television has done them, in series such as Strangers With Candy, Crank Yankers, and the always-topical, always-raunchy South Park. If we aren’t suitably and giddily shocked by the films and shows that seem to exist solely for this purpose, it’s not our fault, is it? Maybe it’s the culture’s fault. It couldn’t possibly be Smith’s—right? Not the guy who’s the hero of potty-mouthed, life-beaten geeks everywhere. But how about the guy who allowed the long-announced Clerks II to be publicized with a poster that features Rosario Dawson placed saucily front an ... "

"Thank God Kevin Smith came to his senses and gave us Clerks II, the brilliant return to the View Askinewiverse after the cowardly sellout Jersey Girl. The movie is slightly better than the original, and stands firmly with Smiths masterpieces Mallrats and Chasing Amy. The film does what a sequel should do- it continues the story without repeating. The memories of Clerks, one of the most influential films of the 90s are with the audience at all times during the picture, and Smith shows us what would happen to his now legendary characters if time had passed. Its like fictional comedy version of Michael Apteds Up films. Like the first film, Clerks II chronicles a single day in the lives of Dante (Brian OHalloran) and Randall (Jeff Anderson) as they work a piece of shit job. The convenience store they worked at in the first film has burned down, so their lot is even worse- they work at a McDonalds-like fast food restaurant. There social lives have not improved much either, both still li ... "
