This should be cool, assuming you're into Kevin Smith movies.

Awesome...I like Kevin Smith, and I was curious if they would ever make a follow-up to Clerks. I hope it is good...but being a Kevin Smith film, it probably will be.

Thats awesome, i love kevin smith work. when i went to NYC we took a day went to jersey and went to the quick stop where they filmed the first one.

Smith did however say that he'd never bring back jay and silent bob which i find suprising that he is. But whatever, i'll go see the movie if i have to.

Jason was in rehab with my best friend, last winter, they got released, but smackheads always seem to relapse. That could have alot to do with it. Anyway that QuickStop is about 5 min from my house, if they shoot there, noway I can miss it.

But will it have Jay and Silent Bob? "Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back" was supposed to be the end of the Jersey series. Not that the movie needs them, but it would be funny to see a cameo.

It will have Jay and Silent Bob, plus the original slackers from first one, Randall and Dante.

Jay and Silent Bob are the shizzit. The best is Smith as Bob with only the hilarious facial expressions and body language. I remember in Chasing Amy, they were at the old Route 1 Flea Market...brings back memories of the old days

You Central Jersey guys know what I mean. Jersey Represent!

It's wierd to see people you grew up around on the big screen. My best friends brother was friends with Jason Mewes, who lived a few blocks away from me. I met Kevin Several times. I lived in Middletown NJ, where Alyssa was from in Chasing Amy.

Kevin promised to end his 'Bridge and tunnel' series. He said Jay and Silent bob was the last of them. I'm sorta skeptical. Kevin is a smart guy. I hope he knows that he's doing.

Oh, and if you ever get the chance, go to his comic book shop in Red Bank, NJ called 'Jay and Silent Bob's secret stash'.
Some great stuff there as well as a mini Kevin Smith movie Museum.
