And the best Kevin Smith movie is…

October 18, 2011

CLERKS!!!

Man, I am seriously in the minority on this one, huh? Think I’ve seen this movie three times now in the hopes that something will click, but alas, I’ve never gotten the draw. Nevertheless, there will always be Dogma and Chasing Amy, and those, dear readers, are out-of-freaking-sight. Itching to check out Red State on Netflix Instant to see how it measures up, but here’s to hoping that those Hit Somebody movies are a fitting swan song to the geekiest film maker out there.

RESULTS:
Clerks: 14 votes
Chasing Amy: 9 votes
Dogma: 7 votes
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back: 4 votes (still hilarious)
Mallrats: 3 votes
Clerks II: 2 votes (might regret saying this, but I actually thought it was better than the first one)
Zack and Miri Make a Porno: 2 votes
Red State: 1 vote

    I cannot stand Clerks.
    I love Chasing Amy, Dogma, Mallrats, Zack and Miri, Red State, and Jersey Girl but Clerks, Clerks II, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back get on my nerves.

      Amen, brotha’. Just saw Red State last night, wasn’t as crazy about it as I thought it would be, still pretty wild and unexpected for Kevin Smith though. That dude can really be crude as shit, huh?

    Really?

    I love Clerks. Something very kitsch about it. I’d suspect it would be something you’d like Aiden.

      I know, I thought it’d be right up my alley as well. Think it’s just too damn crude for my taste and the only part I laugh at is that guy singing the “Berserker” song. Can’t say I haven’t given it a fair shake though.

      Haha. Glad you liked it. Wasn’t crazy about it myself, but still is one of the better horror premises I’ve come across in a good long while.

    Clerks is really the only reasonable option here, I think.

      Hahaha. Yeah, really is. Would have been one interesting movie alright, same goes for the Tim Burton/Nic Cage one.
