Has anyone else seen this movie? It is so damn funny. Those guys are always gold. I would have to put that up there in the funniest movies of all time category.
It was OK, but I wouldn't go that far. Chasing Amy and Clerks were MUCH funnier. And what's with only having Smith, Mewes and Mosier on the DVD commentary track? They couldn't get Affleck or Jason Lee?
The first thing I said after I saw the movie was "I can't wait to get the DVD and listen to the commentary." And now I have it and, while the commentary is cool, it's just not the same with only Smith, Mewes and Mosier. At least it's packed with plenty of crap to make up for it.
"Will you SHUT UP? I haven't written a word in a year -nothing I haven't thrown out in years! Do you know what that's like? When it's just you and a blank sheet of paper? When you can't think of a SINGLE thing worth saying, a single character that people could believe in, a single story that hasn't been told a thousand times before!" -- Richard Modoc, "Calliope," Sandman 17, Neil Gaiman.
That movie was totally hilarious. Especially when Jay and Silent Bob were struggling to lean on the convience store where the gang stopped. That was GOLD.
...Some fear the Pink... ...But many fear....THE MOUNTIE! (He's handsome, he's brave, and he's strong, you know)
Gotta love a DVD where the deleted scenes are longer than the actual movie.
As funny as it was, I still like Dogma and Chasing Amy better.

This is indeed a great movie. IMO, I thought it was his funniest movie yet, with the only possible exception being Clerks. The commentary was kina weak, but that's alright. Mewes seemed totally out of it during the whole thing and I thought it was pretty funny how he got up during the middle of it and took a bathroom break.
Anyway, has anyone found any Easter Eggs in it yet?
"Damn you Rock-Em Sock-Em Robots! Can't we all just get along?"
I'm sure the J&SB picture by Jim Mafhood on Disc Two will end up being one.

Uhh....if you go to the Cast Bios section on Disc 2, and head to Jason Mewes' bio....press up and then enter. It's...well, it's pretty funny and scary all at once.
I think J&SBSB is the funniest Jersey flick, but Chasing Amy is still the best.
I agree that the commentary track wasn't all that great, a fact that they mentioned during the taping since the movie moves so fast it was hard to get all the stories in. Maybe they should have done a second one as well?
Great disc tho. Well worth the $17 I got it for at Circuit City.

The SmarKow Says: Gotta love any movie that can combine Ben Affleck and Daredevil as some sort of premonition. And Ben Affleck dead hooker jokes. "It's Hunting Season Chucky"
To be honest, I thought Mallrats was the funniest of the films until Jay and Silent Bob. Jay and Bob was hysterical and the DVD rules. Jesus, it has two really good music videos and another movie worth of deleted scenes. I like Dogma and Chasing Amy, but they really didn't find them as fun as the other ones. Of course, it maybe because they have something to say in these ones. I just found both kinda boring, but the deleted scenes should have stayed. I don't care if it was three hours, it would be well worth it for Linda Fortina's scene where she talks about her abortion. That was great, that should have stayed in and the whole her being a relative Jesus should have been left out.

A Fan- Still missing my 2 DVD set of Dogma.
They couldn't have taken out the part about her being the last Psion. the whole premise was that by being of Christ's blood then even the renegade angels would fear her coming after them. Her abortion played into her losing her faith which added irony since she was the last remaining relative of Christ. The entire movie was a commentary on religions and how they affect the world. Dogma was great. truthis I like everything put out by View Askew.
The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. I can fuck better than anybody who can fuck faster, and I can fuck faster than anybody who can fuck better.
I really like Dogma and Chasing Amy, the two more serious films of the View Askewverse than the just silly ones.

"The best reason for committing loathsome & detestable acts -and let's face it, I am considerably something of an expert in the field - is purely for their own sake. Monetary gain is all very well, but it dilutes the tastes of wickedness to a lower level that is obtainable by anyone will an overdeveloped sense of avarice. True and baseless evil is as rare as the purest good - and we all know how rare THAT is." - Acheron Hades, THE EYRE AFFAIR by Jaspar Fforde
