>Mallrats
>Dogma
>Chasing Amy
Are all solid movies I recommend to anyone.
>Clerks
>Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Are for the fans
>Jersey Girl
I'm not sure who this is for.

Theyre all really bad.

During the early '00s his internet reputation was off the charts. He was on the same level as Tarantino/Lynch according to proto-Yas Forums fags on Something Awful and the like.

lol

His movies are basically *cringe* attempts to mimic Seinfeld for nerds/stoners

>pre-Yas Forums fags

Trash.

Jay and silent bob is a neat trashing of Hollywood but that’s about it

Jeremy London and Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck and Matt Damon were relentlessly handsome.

This. Only washed up gen x faggots like him.

>wow, if he can make a movie for 30k maybe I could too if I wanted

saw most of these when i was like 7-8, and i thought they were really funny and cool.

rewatching them as a adult, theres only a handful I like, like dogma or clerks.

>Jeremy London
JUST

He deserves shit for slinging hot garbage but I can't deny he's savvy as fuck, there's no reason he should be anything but a footnote from 90's culture but instead he is practically a household name and still rich.

I know 90% of Yas Forums wants to make movies, from a business perspective he's worth paying attention to

So this last movie confirms Kevin Smith is a literal irl cuck and he's been raising Jason Mewes' daughter as his own, right??

>oh what a lovely tea party

what happened in the movie?

what about his twin?

>Yeah, can you take your socks off when you two "make whoopie"? He hates it when you do that shit.

Yes.
Smiths problem is that he never evolved as a filmmaker because his early work took off.

Clerks is pretty good for what it is (a cheap, shoddily crafted amateur film). I'd say it's the only one of his films that I'd say is worth spending the time to watch.
Mallrats is terrible though. Appeals only to hardcore Smith fans or kids.
The others range from mediocre to absolute trash

Harley Quinn Smith plays Jay's long lost daughter and oddly looks a lot more like young Jay than Bob

Just ask if he was a hack user, the fat part isnt up for debate.

That FUCKING face he pulls

She really does look like a mix of Jay and Kevs wife. I see literally 0 of Kevin in her

she also sucks' at acting

Kinos of the highest order. JaSBSB is the last good one

based

is...is that her?

fat pretentious fuck who fluked Clerks, got shit faced on his own bathwater, and slowly sank in the quicksand

Dogma is his only true kino

>Saban Films
So fat Kev is wrapped up with the jews, too?

you just knoww

Yes.

He was always kind of shit tbf but holy hell he took a nose dive right after 2000.

Jesus he looks awful.

Saw part of Mallrats again recently and was shocked by how bad it was. It was never my favorite but I didn't remember it being terrible.

You really have to have been of that generation to really get clerks. It is our fucking love letter though , I like mall rats but that is a love or hate thing. Chasing Amy is good and dogma is good. Everything else is am embarrassment though
His generation fans love him, he sells out carnegie hall with a one man “show” on nothing but his name. There are A listers that could not do that.

Hes spent the first 10 years of his career making fun of the type of hack directors he eventually would turn into.

Tell 'em, Steve Dave.

>was always kind of shit tbf but holy hell he took a nose dive right after 2000.
This. Loved his 90s work but as I grew out of my teens his humor just felt childish and all of his work past Jay and Bob strikes back is hot garbage.

Something really bad happened to him a long time ago.
Normal people don’t wake up and shove gummy worms in their mouth to start the day, which appernttly is what he did for years. Also the pot shrunk his brain of course.
He was so fat at Carnegie hall he wore a bathroom to pick up the sweat.

Jay and Silent Bob aren't looking so hot either.

What a ride though

Mallrats and clerks rest are dogshit

This. Mallrats was enjoyable and Dogma had its moments (mostly Hayek jumping around in underwear) but the rest is garbage and I'm still surprised to see Chasing Amy be so overrated.

I only really like mallrats, and is mostly because I remember I saw it in my teens woth my brother and we were rollingon the floor of laughter during the love game confesion. I don't know if I'd like it nowadays though

Just this, lol

I've come to the realization that I hate Jason Lee as an actor. I don't know why.

You just hate everyone user, like the rest of us

Fat jersey man who only makes movies about being a fat guy from jersey

Most mall rats clips cant be taken out of context, one of his rare comedies when every bit builds off the previous bit or off of something about the character,

They are pure kino.

>'00s
Thank you for knowing where to put the apostrophe.

Zack and Miri Make A Porno was a sweet departure from his usual shtick. Shame that's when Seth Rogen introduced him and his wife to weed. That combined with him starting to podcast turned him into the insufferable shitlord he is today.

You think seth rogen introduced the fat man to weed ? You're fucking kidding right ?
