Here's a hilarious discussion between Kevin and Joel. Pretty much guarantees that I'll love the sequel.

Suddenly, I want to see Clerks 2!

I wonder if he sat through the Aristocrats.

I was just re-watching all of Kevin Smith's works getting ready for Clerks 2!

 

[Blade]

It was damned awesome.

Clerks 2? Is it out already?!?!

An Evening with Kevin Smith. I highly recommend it.

 

[K.I.L.E.R]

What's Clerks?
Radio show?

It's a movie. Go to IMDb and search for it.

BTW - There is a free download on ViewAskew's website for a 6 minute short called "The Flying Car" that was aired in 2002 on the Tonight Show and stars Dante, Randell, and Silent Bob.

EDITED BITS: Doh! No Silent Bob, it was just written/directed by Kevin Smith.

The best part about this story is that Kevin Smith is a regular on Opie and Anthony, and Kevin actually CALLED UP Joel Siegel on their show and got into verbal fisticuffs with him.

"Sir it's your job to sit in on a movie so essentially walking out of it making a scene is not doing your job. I could care less if you walk out, but to sit there and scream 'look at me i have a mustache and haven't walked out on a movie for thirty fucking years' is offensive."

That would be the mp3 I linked in the first post of this thread.

I thought it was rather hilarious. I don't see what would make him walk out of the movie... I'm sure he actually liked a lot of movies that were far worse.

Oh, I didn't listen to it. I heard him on the show when it premiered.

he was offended
Honestly I'm surprised he didn't walk out sooner.

Did he mention what offended him? I can't dl the mp3 where I am, so I may have to wait til I get home.

I suppose him being offended by the humor is about the best one could hope for as far as 'reasons why people walk out of movies'.

I'm betting it was at the part where the interspecies erotica came into play, but that was just a brilliantly done bit that slayed me.

That was rather well done, but so was almost every borderline scene in the movie -- it didn't seem very offensive to me!

The "it's alright, I'm taking it back" (in regards to the racism scene) part seemed to be the most offensive, and I thought that was probably the most hilarious part of the movie.

40 minutes in when they're talking about the "donkey show."
