I think it more had to do with him being super fat and losing a bunch of weight. His hormones have been permanently fricked and he is way more feminine than a normal man his age should be.
I think it's got more to do with being a creative. Clerks came out when Smith was like 24. He's in his 50's now, he's had a lot of time to reflect and develop his craft. Whether or not he's actually improved, I can't say, but I know it's pretty common for an older artist to look back at his work and see all of the flaws that were present and feel more dismissive of it. Clerks is a low budget slice of life comedy, he's gone on to do much more ambitious projects so he's probably a little embarrassed that a flick about two dudes shooting the shit in a convenience store is what he's most remembered for.

>Guys' testosterone drops like a brick once they hit ~40
It doesn't you moron. Starting at around 30 man's testosterone drops off about 2% every year in linear fashion. But you could be like 60 and still have more testosterone than a lot of people at their peak. I mean it was so unnecessary to put that ageist shit in there.
>But you could be like 60 and still have more testosterone than a lot of people at their peak.
we and kevin smith are not gonna be that peak you stupid old homosexual

>Guys' testosterone drops like a brick once they hit ~40
If that's true then what kind of creatures will the current peak test feminine men resemble once they reach that age? Will they even be human?
This is true, plus just family life/nesting whenever you're super rich and have zero adversity for the rest of your days makes you extremely soft. Look at the It's Always Sunny guys. Their whole podcast is either apologizing for/ignoring episodes with "problematic" content and instead talking about boring wealthy family life. Add in the lack of weight lifting and all plant-based diets and there you go, a complete shell of masculinity.
Jesus the Always Sunny podcast is legitimately depressing to listen to. Its basically just them apologizing and scolding anyone for enjoying the fricking show. They're so detached from reality its pretty clear why the show hasn't been funny in years. Seriously frick Rob McElhenny especially the fricking gay
The only entertaining aspect of the IASIP podcast is how obvious Charlie makes it that he couldn't care less about the show and just wants to be a movie star
I think it's far simpler than that. He's headed toward the realisation that he's washed up and his best work is behind him. He's downplaying Clerks now because he wants to believe he's currently the best he's ever been. He likely knows it well enough but won't allow himself to actually think it yet, just keeps shoving it down into the box and overcompensating to try to keep the lid on it. Lad is in for a fricking NUCLEAR meltdown at some point over the next few years.
>Probably just underhandedly begging for people to compliment his shitty movie, though
This. It's his only decent (watchable) movie imo, since that film he became too self-aware or something and everything else he's made is garbage and continually gets worse and worse. He probably doesn't know how he did it the first time, but realizes it is his best and wants people to talk about it to make him feel better so he's shitting on it
That's the kind of "loser" you wish you were. Dude has lost touch with whatever talent he once had as well as reality, but he's a multi-millionaire who gets to hang out with his friends and his childhood idols. I really don't want to defend KS but comments like yours are just ultra-moronic.

But frick man, calling a successful Hollywood millionaire who seems pretty happy even if WE don't care for his work a "loser" is both low-hanging fruit and just smacks of jealousy. Go back.

It's kind of coming clearer and clearer that he never had a lot of talent in the first place. His only good movies were the ones he made starring mostly his friends playing around with barely used scripts and it was really just playtime for him and his friends saying and doing what they would have done even away from the camera. Talking comic and movie shit while drinking a beer and hanging out.
Every time he tried branching out from that he made really awful shit. He tried making a horror movie, a buddy cop comedy, a scifi, and he really tried to emulate the usual Hollywood formula for filmmaking and all he did was make low budget shit for the bargain bin at Walmart. All he could do and be successful at was making goofy low budget comedies with his friends, and that ran dry when they all hit their mid 40s and were not edgy 20 somethings in the 90s any longer.
He's like a mainstream successful Nostalgia Critic, dorky guy who got to hang out with his friends and make movies that consisted of them saying and doing their usual nerdy stuff. And now that ran out, everyone got old and they cannot do the same thing and attract viewers any longer. If Kevin Smith were born 15 years later he might have been in the same boat. Wasting time on a youtube channel instead of pushing himeslf through film school and making bottom tier budget films.
Understandable. It’s literally the only kino thing he’s ever done. It’s a complete anomaly in his body of work and I’m not at all surprised he doesn’t understand it.
Not really. Your coom brain overrides the monologuing and awful dialog, because "OMG JOEY LAUREN ADAMS I WANNA FRICK HER SO BAD I'M GONNA COOOOOOOOOM!"
Jason Lee and Dwight Ewell were the only decent performances. Affleck was awful. Adams was...Adams. She played herself, for an easy paycheck.
The big crying scene at the end was just Smith's way of rewriting a scene in his own personal life where all he got was "Frick off. (door slams)", instead of the dragged out, pointless monologuing he wrote.
But, "OMG LESBIAN I'M GONNA COOOOOOM SUCH A REALLY GOOD MOVIE!!! SHE SAID FISTING I'm GONNA COOOM AGAIN!!!!"
He's just trying too damn hard. 90's culture industry peddled "indie movies" and "alternative music" to my generation, and for some of them it was very formative. Clerks was just too close to home for me at that time. I worked a similar shitty retail job, and it was like looking into a mirror; but without my gang of cronies humor. I do appreciate Clerks 2 though, it's still the same boiler plate Smith stuff; but there's also something sentimental to it in regard to a generation of losers that never made it beyond working menial jobs. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, and in many cases circumstances are the reason for that. It just has some real lucid moments in between pop culture jokes and donkey shows.
Smith seems to be mentally ill enough to genuinely cry over stupid meaningless shit, Kimmel is a paid homosexual who cries with no tears for insincere reasons (Primarily to push communist totalitarianism... err, "gun legislature"), they both suck shit but for different reasons.
Kevin Smith died when he had that heart attack.
Think about it, watch his old Stand Up Specials, the kind of pessimistic shit he’d talk about. After that heart attack his homosexualy Christian guilt set in and he did a complete 180. All he does now is try and distance himself from anything he ever did in the past, trying to create a revisionist version of himself and his work where everything he’s ever done is actually positive and good and never critical, unless it’s of his own work, and only work that had dour moments.
>I don't want celebrities
If you consider Kevin Smith to be a celebrity then you deserve everything that is bad coming you way you fricking homosexual Black person israelite
He was like that way before the heart attack. Maybe it's that he got married and had a kid and mellowed with age, and of course the weed. I liked him much more in those old Q&A things though, he was much more cynical and funny back then
>his old standup specials
The funny thing is they aren't even really standup comedy, they're Q&A sessions he did on college campuses, but he's just a good storyteller and has a story for every question people ask
Where's the lie tho?
He literally is a poor man's Tarantino. Pretentious homosexuals are obsessed with his worst movies while he's sitting there consuming capeshit and crying.
Chasing Amy was easily his worst movie, and he's made some shit, but that's the movie he's recognized for because homosexuals that wouldn't want anything to do with him if he wasn't famous fall over each other to be bored to tears by it.
Meanwhile his Magnum Opus was Mallrats. That was the thing he had to say, but couldn't say it with $30k or whatever the budget for Clerks was.
While Tarantino ultimately found his groove quicker than Smith did and is by far the more movie-literate filmmaker, considering they both made black and white gen x slacker hang-out movies at the same age, I have to say that Clerks is a far superior piece of work compared to My Best Friend's Birthday.
I watched clerks not long ago and I agree. It's just a corny amateur movie that's enjoyable at times. It's not LE CLASSIC SPEAKING TRUTHS OF THE WORKING CLASS or some shit. It's actually pretty boring. The main storyline about ex gf vs new gf is typical gen X cuckoldry, and that video strore clerk is too forced as a cynical jerk.
It's more like clerks was the first of its kind. It's really common now to have movies and shows that spend long segments with 2 guys just having a normal everyday common conversation that in no way impacts the movie or adds anything to the story at all. But in the 90s that never really happened. You would not have 2 guys just chat about star wars for a while in a scripted movie. This became a much more common thing in the mid 00s so it's typical and makes Clerks seem like absolutely nothing special. But that common man nerdy conversation stuff really amazed audiences at the time.
>But that common man nerdy conversation stuff really amazed audiences at the time.
The absolute state of Cinemaphile
Thank god we had a fat moron to show us the way so we could have the French New Wave, what would cinema be today without Kevin Smith? How would we be entertained without the Talking Dead?
Zack and Miri make a Porno was almost good. It starts out OK, the lead actors carry it. But after about half, the plot has to sort of kick in and carry it home but suddenly just sort of flounders. Still, I think it's his best one.
It's typical behavior of one hit wonder music artists who only have one good song, everyone always asks them about it and ignores their whole discography, which over time makes them become resentful and bitter of the thing which made them famous.
i watched clerks recently and it was good for a low budget student project. BUT HOLY FRICKING SHIT EACH AND EVERYONE OF THESE ACTORS SUCK ASS AND THE STORY GOES NOWHERE ITS BASICALLY JUST ABOUT WATERED DOWN TARRANTINO DIALOGUE WITHOUT SOMEONE YELLING Black person
The biggest problem with his movies, is they all monologue like he does at his Q&As. There's some hellacious acting in Clerks, but that's to be expected in a low budget movie like that - it's shocking there were any good performances, other than Jay, who was just being himself. The whole thing reeks of "community college film class makes a movie" - which film school snobs sniff and say it's part of it's charm.
Smith as a writer has always been inconsistent. He can write one line of dialog that's good, then it's followed by 20 lines of shit that sounds like him and his Red Bank chud friends talking. Or like the scene in the beginning of Dogma, when Fiorentino is talking to Garafalo. They're talking like Red Bank dudes, not two women.
That, and his autistic insistance on putting what he thinks are "profound" and "insightful" commentary in every fricking movie. You're not a philospher, Kevin. You're just not. You're New Jersy mong who got lucky.
Smith is a hack but his first movie has an unique-ish charm and atmosphere that no other piece of fiction captures. He did the best with what he had + he got lucky it worked out really well.
Clerks, Mall Rats, Chasing Amy and Dogma were all decent 90s films but anything outside that decade is pretty weak. He peaked early and got way too soft and weirdly out of touch, after being so seemingly in touch with base culture. Listening to his appearances on O&A from the 2000s seems like a completely different person to the shrunken smile woketard on display today. Maybe the heart attack did it, maybe the vegan diet or maybe just the hollyweird got another one, either way he is kind of a moronic douche now.
The biggest problem is that EVERY character in his films talks the same. Or they're written as catch-phrase spewing morons. Like in Dogma, everyone just rambles on like an episode of Gilmore Girls.
This homosexual needs to become a fat homosexual again, dude looks like an AIDS patient now, especially considering he seems to still have the giant wardrobe from when he was a fatty
I don't understand it either, but if I was him, I wouldn't say that out loud. It comes off as arrogant when you brush off the people who appreciate your work.
The thing about Clerks - and I don't consider this a negative - is that it mostly gets by not in spite of, but because of its banality. It invokes a certain nostalgia for people who grew up in a decently wealthy but boring suburb and surrounded themselves with people who had no real ambition in life. It's this bizarre mix of depressing and sort of yearning for that time because it was so simple and no one really expected anything from you. Maybe that's just projecting. I'm sure someone could name several movies that accomplish this better, but for me Clerks hits this just right with its setting.
I went to a convention Kevin Smith was at yesterday and he had his booth hidden behind a black veil because he didn’t want anyone taking pictures of him besides consoomers (literally no one else did this there but him).
I have a theory that he is fricking terrified of being cancelled or having the woke crowd point a finger at him. since most of his late 90s to mid 00s output was basically the definition of problematic toxic male fantasy stuff that they hate the most. I think Smith is falling over backwards to say and do literally anything in the world to make a public persona of being the wokest person ever in hopes that no one decides to ruin him.
...while in the process making terrible movie after terrible movie that is easily ruining himself.

says, a kind of apology for making the first one to modern viewers by trying to be as pro everything Twitter would ever want in it. And it makes for a very dull uninteresting movie where almost nothing happens.
He's been trying for decades to get a seat at the big boy's table in Hollywood. I remember VERY early on in his podcasts him talking about wanting to make a Batman movie. He started sucking up to Hollywood big time, trying to get out of his niche, and he failed, utterly. He fricked up Cop Out, which should have been a no-brainer. He fricked up Zack and Miri. He fricked up so badly on Jersey girl that the movie company refuses to allow Jennifer Lopez to appear on the box art or advertisements, because it was going to tank her career - which happened anyway, but that's how bad it was.
He manages to gets scraps from Hollywood, like He-man, and TV shows, but he just doesn't get Hollywood will never hire him for a hundred million dollar capeshit movie. He's not competent enough. He's not talented enough. It would be a waste of money. So he either goes back to making Yoga Hosers II and draining the well completely dry with Clerks and Mallrats sequels, or eating scraps from the big boy table. So he's chomping happily away at crumbs, and getting attention, but he'll never get what he wants - a big tentpole movie with tentpole actors and being treated seriously by Hollywood and the media as a serious, talented director.
That's why he's a complete suck up now. He's got no career left if he doesn't. He can't survive on his own work, because nobody will finance it and he nuked his relationship with the Weinsteins and what's left of Miramax.
Granted, he could retire and live on what he's banked, but creatively, he's at a complete standstill, if not regressing going by the Clerks III trailer.
Yep, he's a massive capeshit fan, the type of fan that'd compromise everything he has just for a chance to be a part of major hollywood capeshit history.

Their body language is all over the place in interviews. Maybe just platonic friends but it does resemble father and daughter quite a bit, and they all know.
Man, she is, unfortunately for her, clearly the daughter of Kevin Smith
I'm sorry Harley but if you werent a raving anorexic/bulimic you would be by now almost his size
I work delivering pizza with a bunch of older gen x'ers who have been doing it for 30 years. They love to quote clerks all the time almost every day. It's endearing honestly
"Gee, I never understood why people made such a big deal about my movie Clerks. Please come and see my new Clerks movie with the same cast from movie I just belittled."
-Kevin Smith
I understand that he didn't make a lot of money from the film he accidentally made, but this is pure cope, trying to justify all the shitty cash grab sequels by pretending that the first one wasn't great. "Clerks" was the most influential film of the 90's, along with "Pulp Fiction". The influence it had on the studios' decions to start funding independent films can't be overstated. On a down note, however, it also popularized pop culture references and quips, which are still everywhere today. There's no way he doesn't realize that "Clerks" is a great movie, and his greatest by far. I love that the guy who played Randall refused to do "Clerks 3" unless they gave him a shitload of money. I'd guess even he knows how shit "Clerks 2" was, and how good, "Clerks" was.
Everything i've heard is that the guy who plays Randall turned dow Clerks III because Smith's script was so fricking bad. Lemme dig up the rumored story line:
>Dante is a single father, raising a deaf girl. The daughter and Randall are close/see eye-to-eye. >Jay and Silent Bob are featured throughout, intertwining and providing comic relief. >When we pick up Becky has already been accidentily killed at the hands of Jay and Silent Bob (vaguely described as mistaken breaking-and-entering shooting death?). >Randall has set up a pop-up Quick Stop in The Mall parking lot, to capitalize on all the people camping out/waiting in line for the Ranger Danger movie premiere. >Dante is diagnosed with cancer, given months to live and saves his daughter's life during a theatre shooting during the Ranger Danger premeire. Daughter is adopted by Randall.
There was a table read for a small crowd of the OG script, reportedy the plot points above. Nobody will discuss the script, "Because Kevin asked them not to." There was a video on Youtube but was taken down by an entertainment lawfirm in LA.
Not even the most offensive thing I've heard of by modern standards but still sounds pretty gay. The strength of these movies was always the dialogue between characters so it's hard to tell if this would be shit. The shooting shit is really lame though and seems pandering
[...]
has set up a pop-up Quick Stop in The Mall parking lot, to capitalize on all the people camping out/waiting in line for the Ranger Danger movie premiere
I imagine this is where most of the movie takes place and the interactions happen because that's what clerks is all about
Clerks was cool until Smith got overexposed.
If Smith pulled a Cobain then Clerks would be... harder to dislike.
But we got to learn all about Smith and he's no Silent Bob. Familiarity breeds contempt and he's just a manchild from Jersey, a consoomer, no edge. He'd wouldn't even be an influencer if born 25 years later, he's a proto-incel.
But Gen X fricked. There was nothing else to do, really.
But he's rich and can get his movies made so who am I to judge?
Having kids and a wife changes a man. Gives you something to look forward to and strive to be instead of a nihilist homosexual who wants to burn it all down. Look at bill burr
He looks so much like my dad, I hate that. My dad was a notorious pedophile too. He bought my mom when she was 13 from her crackhead parents for $300 when he was 35 and kept her prisoner in his home deep in the country where no one could help and kept her there for 4 years until she escaped. Also he killed at least 12 people that I'm aware of. Good thing he is dead now. I found one of the dead bodies down by the creek buried in a shallow grave

It doesn't you moron. Starting at around 30 man's testosterone drops off about 2% every year in linear fashion. But you could be like 60 and still have more testosterone than a lot of people at their peak. I mean it was so unnecessary to put that ageist shit in there.
>ageist
Grow up.
>Basically a woman now (that he's over 40)

That basically supports what the guy was saying although a 50% drop across 50 years is actually more gradual than a 2% decline each year.
Ok gramps. Want another Werther's?

All he could do and be successful at was making goofy low budget comedies with his friends, and that ran dry when they all hit their mid 40s and were not edgy 20 somethings in the 90s any longer.
He's like a mainstream successful Nostalgia Critic, dorky guy who got to hang out with his friends and make movies that consisted of them saying and doing their usual nerdy stuff. And now that ran out, everyone got old and they cannot do the same thing and attract viewers any longer. If Kevin Smith were born 15 years later he might have been in the same boat. Wasting time on a youtube channel instead of pushing himeslf through film school and making bottom tier budget films.
Wtf I love Kevin Smith now.
Understandable. It’s literally the only kino thing he’s ever done. It’s a complete anomaly in his body of work and I’m not at all surprised he doesn’t understand it.
Chasing Amy's actually good though
>Chasing Amy's actually good though
No
Not really. Your coom brain overrides the monologuing and awful dialog, because "OMG JOEY LAUREN ADAMS I WANNA FRICK HER SO BAD I'M GONNA COOOOOOOOOM!"
Jason Lee and Dwight Ewell were the only decent performances. Affleck was awful. Adams was...Adams. She played herself, for an easy paycheck.
The big crying scene at the end was just Smith's way of rewriting a scene in his own personal life where all he got was "Frick off. (door slams)", instead of the dragged out, pointless monologuing he wrote.
But, "OMG LESBIAN I'M GONNA COOOOOOM SUCH A REALLY GOOD MOVIE!!! SHE SAID FISTING I'm GONNA COOOM AGAIN!!!!"
He's just trying too damn hard. 90's culture industry peddled "indie movies" and "alternative music" to my generation, and for some of them it was very formative. Clerks was just too close to home for me at that time. I worked a similar shitty retail job, and it was like looking into a mirror; but without my gang of cronies humor. I do appreciate Clerks 2 though, it's still the same boiler plate Smith stuff; but there's also something sentimental to it in regard to a generation of losers that never made it beyond working menial jobs. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, and in many cases circumstances are the reason for that. It just has some real lucid moments in between pop culture jokes and donkey shows.
Dogma is pretty good. Clerks 2 has it's moments but is overall medicore.
This. I'm convinced he made that movie by accident.
Must have been the one time in his life he wasn't crying like a little b***h.
Who cries more Kevin Smith or Jimmy Kimmel?
Smith seems to be mentally ill enough to genuinely cry over stupid meaningless shit, Kimmel is a paid homosexual who cries with no tears for insincere reasons (Primarily to push communist totalitarianism... err, "gun legislature"), they both suck shit but for different reasons.
Seems accurate. Crying Jimmy Kimmel, whenever I see him that's all I can think.
So the man show was his grift and he's really a vapid, eunuch
Smith and Rogan cried like babies over dogs
Bruce was based beyond belief. Sad about his condition.
"Camera Lenses"
Code for Micro wiener
That you can't see
due to FAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm honestly impressed Willis knew anything about camera equipment and photography.
How did Kevin find this tweet?
Googles his own name on the daily.
Real shit?
Kevin Smith died when he had that heart attack.
Think about it, watch his old Stand Up Specials, the kind of pessimistic shit he’d talk about. After that heart attack his homosexualy Christian guilt set in and he did a complete 180. All he does now is try and distance himself from anything he ever did in the past, trying to create a revisionist version of himself and his work where everything he’s ever done is actually positive and good and never critical, unless it’s of his own work, and only work that had dour moments.
Based Kevin Smith reinventing himself after getting a second chance at life
Yeah but he's a bigger gay now, I don't want celebrities to be positive or have good lives I want them to entertain me
>I don't want celebrities
If you consider Kevin Smith to be a celebrity then you deserve everything that is bad coming you way you fricking homosexual Black person israelite
>nearly dies
>gets a second chance
>tries to be better and positive
good for him
He probably met the devil when he died for a short time
He was like that way before the heart attack. Maybe it's that he got married and had a kid and mellowed with age, and of course the weed. I liked him much more in those old Q&A things though, he was much more cynical and funny back then
>his old standup specials
The funny thing is they aren't even really standup comedy, they're Q&A sessions he did on college campuses, but he's just a good storyteller and has a story for every question people ask
>all the redditors replying from the asiatic multiverse thread
Didn't the guy lose his faith, though?
>After that heart attack his homosexualy Christian guilt set in and he did a complete 180.
He met God and learned He wasn't a Dogma fan.
>reddit atheist bad because of christianity somehow
you guys are insane with the cope lmfao
> Probably just underhandedly begging for people to compliment his shitty movie, though
This. At least somebody has half a brain here.
took decades for people to finally realise he's been cringe all along
Where's the lie tho?
He literally is a poor man's Tarantino. Pretentious homosexuals are obsessed with his worst movies while he's sitting there consuming capeshit and crying.
Chasing Amy was easily his worst movie, and he's made some shit, but that's the movie he's recognized for because homosexuals that wouldn't want anything to do with him if he wasn't famous fall over each other to be bored to tears by it.
Meanwhile his Magnum Opus was Mallrats. That was the thing he had to say, but couldn't say it with $30k or whatever the budget for Clerks was.
mallrats is fricking gay
While Tarantino ultimately found his groove quicker than Smith did and is by far the more movie-literate filmmaker, considering they both made black and white gen x slacker hang-out movies at the same age, I have to say that Clerks is a far superior piece of work compared to My Best Friend's Birthday.
Mallrats is his worst film of his early carrier by a country mile.
He left his car to be flooded to collect the insurance money for Clerks kek
it's your only good movie you dope
Dogma was okay
the rest...yikes...
but I like Clerks 2 for some reason... agreed that his body of work is mostly trash and the gems are the exception, not the rule.
I watched clerks not long ago and I agree. It's just a corny amateur movie that's enjoyable at times. It's not LE CLASSIC SPEAKING TRUTHS OF THE WORKING CLASS or some shit. It's actually pretty boring. The main storyline about ex gf vs new gf is typical gen X cuckoldry, and that video strore clerk is too forced as a cynical jerk.
It's more like clerks was the first of its kind. It's really common now to have movies and shows that spend long segments with 2 guys just having a normal everyday common conversation that in no way impacts the movie or adds anything to the story at all. But in the 90s that never really happened. You would not have 2 guys just chat about star wars for a while in a scripted movie. This became a much more common thing in the mid 00s so it's typical and makes Clerks seem like absolutely nothing special. But that common man nerdy conversation stuff really amazed audiences at the time.
>But that common man nerdy conversation stuff really amazed audiences at the time.
The absolute state of Cinemaphile
Thank god we had a fat moron to show us the way so we could have the French New Wave, what would cinema be today without Kevin Smith? How would we be entertained without the Talking Dead?
Now there's a way to cope with the fact that the first film you ever released was your best work.
Zack and Miri make a Porno was almost good. It starts out OK, the lead actors carry it. But after about half, the plot has to sort of kick in and carry it home but suddenly just sort of flounders. Still, I think it's his best one.
And that's your best film, Kev
Think about that
>What do you mean there's no ice? You mean I have to drink this coffee hot???
YouTube movie review channels have basically rendered a movie about wagies in a video store arguing about Star Wars minutia obsolete.
This is first time I agreed on something with Kevin Smith, it's that Kevin Smith's movie is overrated.
i really enjoy mallrats
>Brown
Stained, disgusting
I miss saying p0wns
i don't remember anyone saying pOwn or p0wn or pown it was always pwn or pwnd/pwned
I get it, I guess. But that's your wife man, come on
Is that his mom?
TRUE FACT coming through
>Lucas ans Spielbergo used her head for the moulds of the aliens in Indiana Jones 4
i thought this was his wife this guy sucks worse than i thought
Why does he always have that same look in all his photos?
Why is her face out of alignment with itself?
member when he cast his own daughter as a hypersexual love interest?
Does she not have a vegana?
Nobody remembers he lost a bet with his wife and she got to post anything she wanted as him.
>"Hmm I get all my new work nobody likes based on the adoration of the public for my old work, I better shit on it and call all of them morons!"
It's typical behavior of one hit wonder music artists who only have one good song, everyone always asks them about it and ignores their whole discography, which over time makes them become resentful and bitter of the thing which made them famous.
i watched clerks recently and it was good for a low budget student project. BUT HOLY FRICKING SHIT EACH AND EVERYONE OF THESE ACTORS SUCK ASS AND THE STORY GOES NOWHERE ITS BASICALLY JUST ABOUT WATERED DOWN TARRANTINO DIALOGUE WITHOUT SOMEONE YELLING Black person
>DIALOGUE WITHOUT SOMEONE YELLING Black person
The only time Silent Bob speaks is to quote Hitler or to call people Black folk.
Come on, don't lie. Seriously. Silent Bob is known for only breaking his silence when he's recruiting for NAMBLA
The biggest problem with his movies, is they all monologue like he does at his Q&As. There's some hellacious acting in Clerks, but that's to be expected in a low budget movie like that - it's shocking there were any good performances, other than Jay, who was just being himself. The whole thing reeks of "community college film class makes a movie" - which film school snobs sniff and say it's part of it's charm.
Smith as a writer has always been inconsistent. He can write one line of dialog that's good, then it's followed by 20 lines of shit that sounds like him and his Red Bank chud friends talking. Or like the scene in the beginning of Dogma, when Fiorentino is talking to Garafalo. They're talking like Red Bank dudes, not two women.
That, and his autistic insistance on putting what he thinks are "profound" and "insightful" commentary in every fricking movie. You're not a philospher, Kevin. You're just not. You're New Jersy mong who got lucky.
>which film school snobs sniff and say it's part of it's charm.
but it really is, they dont really make this good "frick you world" movies today
Smith is a hack but his first movie has an unique-ish charm and atmosphere that no other piece of fiction captures. He did the best with what he had + he got lucky it worked out really well.
Clerks, Mall Rats, Chasing Amy and Dogma were all decent 90s films but anything outside that decade is pretty weak. He peaked early and got way too soft and weirdly out of touch, after being so seemingly in touch with base culture. Listening to his appearances on O&A from the 2000s seems like a completely different person to the shrunken smile woketard on display today. Maybe the heart attack did it, maybe the vegan diet or maybe just the hollyweird got another one, either way he is kind of a moronic douche now.
The biggest problem is that EVERY character in his films talks the same. Or they're written as catch-phrase spewing morons. Like in Dogma, everyone just rambles on like an episode of Gilmore Girls.
He diddled his daughter and is afraid if he doesn't tow the line for the liberals she'll get mad at him and tell everyone.
Someone post the Scorsese quote unless that shit is fake.
Did he get plastic surgery? What the frick is wrong with him? Is this what a vegan diet does to your brain?
He went full progressive as a Disney shill...the man is dead.
I don't get it either. The animated series was the GOAT though.
This homosexual needs to become a fat homosexual again, dude looks like an AIDS patient now, especially considering he seems to still have the giant wardrobe from when he was a fatty
Boredom's not a burden anyone should bear
On a panel once, he talked about how the only thing he had eaten in the past three days was a bowl tomato soup
I don't understand it either, but if I was him, I wouldn't say that out loud. It comes off as arrogant when you brush off the people who appreciate your work.
It was his peek
The thing about Clerks - and I don't consider this a negative - is that it mostly gets by not in spite of, but because of its banality. It invokes a certain nostalgia for people who grew up in a decently wealthy but boring suburb and surrounded themselves with people who had no real ambition in life. It's this bizarre mix of depressing and sort of yearning for that time because it was so simple and no one really expected anything from you. Maybe that's just projecting. I'm sure someone could name several movies that accomplish this better, but for me Clerks hits this just right with its setting.
I went to a convention Kevin Smith was at yesterday and he had his booth hidden behind a black veil because he didn’t want anyone taking pictures of him besides consoomers (literally no one else did this there but him).
I have a theory that he is fricking terrified of being cancelled or having the woke crowd point a finger at him. since most of his late 90s to mid 00s output was basically the definition of problematic toxic male fantasy stuff that they hate the most. I think Smith is falling over backwards to say and do literally anything in the world to make a public persona of being the wokest person ever in hopes that no one decides to ruin him.
...while in the process making terrible movie after terrible movie that is easily ruining himself.
Pretty much, all of his movies up until the 2010’s were produced by Harvey Weinstein.
was that Jay and Silent Bob Reboot movie any good?
No, it's definitely as
says, a kind of apology for making the first one to modern viewers by trying to be as pro everything Twitter would ever want in it. And it makes for a very dull uninteresting movie where almost nothing happens.
It's a little more simple than that.
He's been trying for decades to get a seat at the big boy's table in Hollywood. I remember VERY early on in his podcasts him talking about wanting to make a Batman movie. He started sucking up to Hollywood big time, trying to get out of his niche, and he failed, utterly. He fricked up Cop Out, which should have been a no-brainer. He fricked up Zack and Miri. He fricked up so badly on Jersey girl that the movie company refuses to allow Jennifer Lopez to appear on the box art or advertisements, because it was going to tank her career - which happened anyway, but that's how bad it was.
He manages to gets scraps from Hollywood, like He-man, and TV shows, but he just doesn't get Hollywood will never hire him for a hundred million dollar capeshit movie. He's not competent enough. He's not talented enough. It would be a waste of money. So he either goes back to making Yoga Hosers II and draining the well completely dry with Clerks and Mallrats sequels, or eating scraps from the big boy table. So he's chomping happily away at crumbs, and getting attention, but he'll never get what he wants - a big tentpole movie with tentpole actors and being treated seriously by Hollywood and the media as a serious, talented director.
That's why he's a complete suck up now. He's got no career left if he doesn't. He can't survive on his own work, because nobody will finance it and he nuked his relationship with the Weinsteins and what's left of Miramax.
Granted, he could retire and live on what he's banked, but creatively, he's at a complete standstill, if not regressing going by the Clerks III trailer.
Yep, he's a massive capeshit fan, the type of fan that'd compromise everything he has just for a chance to be a part of major hollywood capeshit history.
He’s been bitter for a long time that View Askew is the only thing of his that anyone cares about.
the "fandom" is just people making fun of his shit movies, like minion or morbius shitposters
I always lament that this picture isn't in higher resolution.
You mean that shitty photoshop?
Would still frick his daughter.
ugh. Put a bag over her head and pay her extra not to say "snootchie boochies!" like her dad.
>harley Quinn
Id hate my dad too if I was named after a fricking comic book character. Being named after a great uncle I never met is way better than that shit
This person is very evenly toeing the line between attractive and unattractive
She is almost 'ugly delicious' but needs to get that face mole removed first. Id still frick her tho
Oh, LOOK!
A WALRUS jumped on my paddle board
Get the dive knife
god she's ugly, sucks to have Kevin genes
>his daughter
>he doesnt know
Smith is a proud cuck
Two stoners and a failed abortion
She does kinda resemble Mewes more than Smith, would love to see the results of that paternity test.
Their body language is all over the place in interviews. Maybe just platonic friends but it does resemble father and daughter quite a bit, and they all know.
Man, she is, unfortunately for her, clearly the daughter of Kevin Smith
I'm sorry Harley but if you werent a raving anorexic/bulimic you would be by now almost his size
shes got a very Oval kinda head, idk shes kinda attractive in an abstract kinda way. her body is whatever though like some breasts and some ass.....
Did someone tell him to flex his neck as hard as possible to avoid the triple chin? He does it in every photo
isnt that just skin sag from all the weight loss?
Better you than me
You keep your filthy 3rd world paws off Jay's daughter.
>16 YEARS SINCE HER BIRTH AND HER BROWN EYE/TAINT AREA STILL p0WNZ my DICK HOLE
Imagine getting named after a goddamn Batman villain
The real thought of his is
>why dont these zoomers love my new shitty movies
>I never understood the one good thing that I've done in my life
sounds about right
I've seen clerks, mallrats, chasing amy, dogma, jay and silent bob, and zack and miri. They all sucked. kevin smith is a moron.
Mallrats EXTENDED version?
Totally different movie
Sucks even worse
>Mallrats EXTENDED version?
what an atrocity. It ruined the movie and memories i had.
Ditto
And that why he never made another movie worth watching
I work delivering pizza with a bunch of older gen x'ers who have been doing it for 30 years. They love to quote clerks all the time almost every day. It's endearing honestly
Sounds like hell. I work with zoomers and they quote The Sopranos so it's based but what you're describing? Cringe
Remember him shitting on Bruce Willis for his contemptuous attitude towards fans?
I do. What a hypocrite. LMAO
Frick all of you, Mallrats is good too.
to be fair when I was a teenager I thought Brody was cool as frick
but it hasn't aged well at all
>but it hasn't aged well at all
Of course not, it was an ode to american mall culture, something that's been extinct for over 15 years now.
"Gee, I never understood why people made such a big deal about my movie Clerks. Please come and see my new Clerks movie with the same cast from movie I just belittled."

>he joked
>article seems to take him seriously
are people fricking moronic ?
And yet he is making a third one. The PR is stronk with this shill.
Not exactly a good way promote Clerks III but whatever.
>Smith jokes
You people really are just looking for something to angry about aren't you?
I understand that he didn't make a lot of money from the film he accidentally made, but this is pure cope, trying to justify all the shitty cash grab sequels by pretending that the first one wasn't great. "Clerks" was the most influential film of the 90's, along with "Pulp Fiction". The influence it had on the studios' decions to start funding independent films can't be overstated. On a down note, however, it also popularized pop culture references and quips, which are still everywhere today. There's no way he doesn't realize that "Clerks" is a great movie, and his greatest by far. I love that the guy who played Randall refused to do "Clerks 3" unless they gave him a shitload of money. I'd guess even he knows how shit "Clerks 2" was, and how good, "Clerks" was.
Everything i've heard is that the guy who plays Randall turned dow Clerks III because Smith's script was so fricking bad. Lemme dig up the rumored story line:
>Dante is a single father, raising a deaf girl. The daughter and Randall are close/see eye-to-eye.
>Jay and Silent Bob are featured throughout, intertwining and providing comic relief.
>When we pick up Becky has already been accidentily killed at the hands of Jay and Silent Bob (vaguely described as mistaken breaking-and-entering shooting death?).
>Randall has set up a pop-up Quick Stop in The Mall parking lot, to capitalize on all the people camping out/waiting in line for the Ranger Danger movie premiere.
>Dante is diagnosed with cancer, given months to live and saves his daughter's life during a theatre shooting during the Ranger Danger premeire. Daughter is adopted by Randall.
There was a table read for a small crowd of the OG script, reportedy the plot points above. Nobody will discuss the script, "Because Kevin asked them not to." There was a video on Youtube but was taken down by an entertainment lawfirm in LA.
Not even the most offensive thing I've heard of by modern standards but still sounds pretty gay. The strength of these movies was always the dialogue between characters so it's hard to tell if this would be shit. The shooting shit is really lame though and seems pandering
has set up a pop-up Quick Stop in The Mall parking lot, to capitalize on all the people camping out/waiting in line for the Ranger Danger movie premiere
I imagine this is where most of the movie takes place and the interactions happen because that's what clerks is all about
Why would he say something like that when there’s a clerks 3 now?
huge black wieners with pearly white cum
What a moron.
>made in the 90s
That automatically makes it better than anything coming out today. Also better than anything else he's ever done
>movies where the hero ends up as the antagonist
Frick off Kevin, The Office is great.
no
dude is flip flopping all over the place. he probably has 10 or so 'internet feelers' telling him how the winds are changing along with his daughter.
Did he ever finish his Canada movie trilogy?
I like Clerks II and I'm not afraid to admit it.
His only film post 2000 worth a look.
Clerks was cool until Smith got overexposed.
If Smith pulled a Cobain then Clerks would be... harder to dislike.
But we got to learn all about Smith and he's no Silent Bob. Familiarity breeds contempt and he's just a manchild from Jersey, a consoomer, no edge. He'd wouldn't even be an influencer if born 25 years later, he's a proto-incel.
But Gen X fricked. There was nothing else to do, really.
But he's rich and can get his movies made so who am I to judge?
Having kids and a wife changes a man. Gives you something to look forward to and strive to be instead of a nihilist homosexual who wants to burn it all down. Look at bill burr
Bill Burr seems more miserable now than ever before
What does Kevin think his best movie is? Tusk? Red State?
He looks so much like my dad, I hate that. My dad was a notorious pedophile too. He bought my mom when she was 13 from her crackhead parents for $300 when he was 35 and kept her prisoner in his home deep in the country where no one could help and kept her there for 4 years until she escaped. Also he killed at least 12 people that I'm aware of. Good thing he is dead now. I found one of the dead bodies down by the creek buried in a shallow grave
Damn what a ride. Mine just watches war documentaries and occasionally seethes about how gay the world has became
>gets to the point where he hates his old work
incredible
What if Kevin Smith died from the heart attack?
>something can't be good because it's from the 90s
objectively true. 90s fricking sucked
90s fricking sucked
>make one decent thing ever
>"I don't know why anyone likes it"
You basically out yourself as having no taste. Like Slash saying he never liked Sweet Child O' Mine.
>Like Slash saying he never liked Sweet Child O' Mine
