Yay! Thanks so much for watching Clerks. Kevin Smith was able to make this movie with his friends for only $27,500. He’s been living the dream ever since.
@Itsaprematee Though it's a minor thing I think at the beginning of the movie the character Dante drank something like carnation breakfast drink mix.
I'm not sure if you can still buy it but their is a graphic novel called Clerks the comic books that continues the story of the first clerks movie. Their is also another graphic novel called Chasing Dogma it's basically Jay And Silent Bob strike back but it connects what happened after Mallrats to the beginning of Dogma.
The film was shot in 21 days (with two "pick-up" days). The Quick Stop convenience store, located at 58 Leonard Avenue in Leonardo, New Jersey, where Smith worked, was the primary setting for the film. This was the epitome of an independent film, really a student film made on a shoestring budget and a prayer.
"dude has the easiest role in the movie"
Director looks pretty hard to me 😆
YES! I am at this part in the reaction and just had to say something. Glad someone else did
This and Friday are my all time favorite movies!! Which is funny cause theyre both just about 2 friends having a wild day haha
"Easiest role in the entire movie"
I mean......Silent Bob is Kevin Smith. The Director.
lol
Ever since I first saw this movie, every time I hear the number 37, I think “in a row?”
I love all three Clerks films!! Clerks 2 is by far the funniest & most watchable for me. The third being the most controversial as it’s not loved by all, but, all are great in their own unique ways.
Third one was disappointing imo. The first 2 however, awesome
Agreed, it’s hard for me to pick a fav cause all three are so totally different vibes but I enjoy all of them in their own ways for what they each uniquely bring to the table
As an ex-Blockbuster employee who was there at the end, we appreciate you. Working there pre-DISH was actually pretty fkin awesome.
It's black and white because that's all they could afford. The Director and Producer paid for this movie on credit cards. Kevin Smith was working at that market and filming there at night. This movie is one of the great indy success stories.
Kevin Smith is not only one of my favorite directors, but one of my favorite people. I can listen to that guy talk all day (and he will). Ironic because he is Silent Bob.
I saw him talk live a few years ago. It was great.
Yeah I went to the reboot road tour, and seeing him and Mewes on stage was a great time
Ever see the video of Kevin participating in a protest against his movie Dogma!?!? The man is a legend!!!
@@user-dy2te6xf6g hell yes
If you ever get the chance to listen to em, check out his early "fatman on batman" episodes. Mark Hamill and Tara Stong episodes are a lot of fun.
Fun insight on video stores! I'm in my 50's and remember spending an hour wandering around a vid store. I remember watching them all go down one at a time. A different era. :)
I have loved this movie for more than a decade, but once I started working in a DVD store about 3 years ago, this went from being a funny comedy, to one of the most truthful depictions of life.
A DVD store? Where do you live? Bratislava?
@@DonRoccoRicardo I mean, we don't just sell DVDs, we sell games and tech too, but it's way easier to say a DVD store for brevity's sake
@@MFSeaMen fair enough
I like this movie, but I have to tell you that Clerks 2 is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Can't wait for you to get to that one.
So unexpected man, you come in clutch every time brotha. This is such a classic comedy film. It's definitely one of my favorites especially the 2nd one it's even raunchier 😂😂 you'll see lol
There's also Mallrats and Chasing Amy.
I’m waiting for the moment he realizes that him and Jason Mewes have the same laugh…
That wasn't sugar for cereal. It was a drink mix like Nestle Quik.
There's an alternative, deleted, ending that's controversial.
Also, the scene with the casket was animated, so you get to see what exactly happened in there (definitely worth watching).
It's been years since I've seen "Clerks 2". I plan to rewatch it someday. "Clerks 3" actually made me shed a tear.
Little kids buying cigarettes was an all day, every day thing throughout the '80s where I lived, and still not unheard of when this movie came out.
None of the parents in my neighborhood could be bothered to get their own cigarettes.
true.... my older brother used to send me down to the corner store { had a cigarette vending machine - like $1.80 / $2.00 in 1988... I was 12/13 years old around then ... I got to keep the other $2 - $3 for food / candy }
Primate! My friend, you are in for a WONDERFUL journey down this rabbit hole. I haven't read other comments yet, (and I'm still at the beginning of the video)... but in case no one has mentioned it yet, it's best to go through these in release order (shown below). You'll notice two of the recurring characters (Jay and Silent Bob) had a cameo in the movie "Grandma's Boy". There are some related "cartoon" movies/shows but I'm not sure if they are actually good, or even related to the movies except for having character names involved.
Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks II, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, Clerks III.
is 'Good Will Hunting' part of this? I know... no cameos... but it is kinda part of the fabric of these people.
I think reacting to this movie makes it the perfect time to react to the whole View Askew universe!
When I was a kid in the scouts, there was a Troop 37 in the city and the jokes were relentless
Man, I used to close at Midnight and Open at 10am in college. A mixed store in Savannah GA [ aka 'Home Run Video' ]... primarily VHS Rentals (+adult), Comic Books (+w subscriptions), and Magazines (normal + high end) sales. I did get to wait on Kevin Spacey, Joie /Joy & August(us) Coppola [Nick Cage's parents], and random other actors. But mostly locals ( of which some were infamous... see 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' - directed by Clint Eastwood... fun times ).
Also, I am from NJ originally [ before living in FL, GA, NJ {again} RI, MA, NY {upstate} ]... lol, and my co-worker {NJ} from 1997-1999 { 'R' who used to date my older brother } is friends with Dante / Brian { she has been in local plays with him }. Closest I got to those people is visiting the comic shop a few times in Red Bank, NJ { grew up around / worked in RB... used to buy comics at the RB mini-mall.. next to the diner, Elsie's subs, the Monarch thrift store, and Count Basie Theatre }
$80? No way. This is the early 90s. Probably half that. Before taxes.
“In a row??!!”😂
Ah, yes! Contentment, the arch nemisis of Change
I hope you continue the Kevin Smith movies, and watch them all in order. Clerks 2 and 3 aren't as effective without watching everything else in between
This movie was made for 30k. The quite guy that smoked leaning on the wall wrote directed and made this movie.
The whole View Askewniverse is good watching. After this, they go:
- Mallrats
- Chasing Amy
- Dogma
- Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
- Clerks 2
- Jay and Silent Bob Reboot
- Clerks 3
I haven't seen those last two, but the rest are great.
Yeah he wasnt making no $80, this was mid 90s minimum wage was only $4something, but gas was still under a $1
I periodically saw stations dip under $1 until early-2002 in Los Angeles. Then it more than tripled in four years.
That got me thinking about how random gas prices are. In April 2020, oil became far, far less than worthless. The price of gas only dropped 3 or 4 percent where I was, at its lowest.
This is about as indie as it gets. Fresh out of film school. Had to sell his comic collection and get family loans to pay for it. Couldn't even afford color film.
Not even “fresh out of film school”. He quit before finishing. Fresher than fresh. But he did meet producer Scott Mosier and cinematographer Dave Klein.
Don't just jump into Clerks 2. You gotta watch all of the View Askewniverse in order to get the references. Next up are Dogma and Chasing Amy.
Mallrats
OMG Primate! IImmediately clicked 37 times! ❤
In a row?
Try not to make any clicks on your way to the parking lot!
Big fan of the View Askewniverse
Jay and Silent Bob are my favorite movie characters ever.
I REALLY hope you watch the sequels 😄 they're both great (funnier too actually) and the others are must watches too (jay & silent bob movies, mallrats etc)
When this film came out it let so many people realize they could become film makers. Including me. Probably my favorite movie of all time from a technical standpoint. Screw Marvell, they actually have money. This is what a film REALLY is. Do it for passion. Not seat filling algorithms.
Probably best he didn't go with the "alternate" or "full" ending. Small amount of footage would have taken this from a slice of life comedy to a much darker place. It makes sense with the student film aspect of it but I wonder if it would have resonated the same with the masses into Smiths future. If you're curious I'm sure you can find the alternate ending somewhere. It's a bonus feature on the disk. There was also a pretty funny animated Clerks show with the same actors but it was short lived as it belonged 10 years in the future on Adult Swim not freakin ABC. Too spicy for 90s network Tv sadly.
View askew universe watch it. Next film is Mallrats and it takes place on the same day as Clerks. They make references to things that were happening in their town.
Mallrats is a day or two before clerks. One, Jay and Silent Bob can't be in two places at the same time. Two, Dante and Randal go to the funeral for the girl who died a day before Mallrats takes place. Timeline: Julie, Dante's ex GF, dies. The next day, TS's GF Brandi has to step into the dating show for her. Presumably the next day, or more likely two days later, Dante and Randal crash the wake for Julie in Clerks.
@@mgordon1100 you're right Mallrats has to take place before Clerks. Do the rest of the movies go in chronological order when they were released? Pretty sure Chasing Amy was a few years after Clerks and Dogma is immediately after Chasing Amy.
@@NathanClarkNateMan010276 You are correct. At the end of Jay and Silent Bob's scene in Chasing Amy, Jay mentions that they are going to Chicago. That's Dogma. While the comic book was never discussed in Dogma, presumably Banky made the movie deal during this time, which leads us into Strikes Back.
Clerks II is pretty much Dante's own story with little references, but it's clearly the next chronologically because Jay and Silent Bob save the Quick Stop with their movie royalty money.
The final two movies also are chronological. Their ages show this, with the inclusion of Jay's and Boo Boo Kitty Fcks daughter (Reboot). Then the final movie Clerks III is the closure to the whole universe.
Go ahead and watch the sequels, but you may want to watch others in between. Jay and Silent Bob got a little bit lore 😏
Awesome reaction of my favorite Clerks movie!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Isaiah i have to believe some of those independent contractors were forced to work on the 2d death star because I heard in ww2 some of the Germans were forced to do what they did
You should get to the third asap theyre so good to watch all together
"in a row?"..
Thank god the movie didn't end with this scene that was cut out: ruclips.net/video/4e9yirX9KUY/видео.html
It you want to enjoy another raunchy "guy film", watch "BEERFEST" (2006). Two brothers go to Octoberfest in Munich to defend their family's honor.....by way of competing in a secret BEER drinking contest! Great Stuff!
You’re gunna love the view askewnaverse
37?!?
Awesome
If this is your first Kevin Smith then you have a few to go. Subscribing for more Kevin Smith!
I find the flipped image distracting. Especially when there are words on the screen.
Copyright.
In a row??
Awesome reaction/ can you please watch a movie called ANY GIVEN SUNDAY.
37th comment 😂
W
I saw this in the theater, and my date was a rather conservative woman who didn't like it at all.
That was a long 92 minutes. 😕 😆
Noti
Don't watch anything from Kevin Smith after 2015, the quality went down.
Are you watching these out of order? That's too bad.
Clerks2 > Clerks
I honestly love them both the same but for different reasons.
number of prior partners matters
No, it doesn't.
say what you want but in observable reality most men prefer a woman who didn't reach level 37. btw you prefer clerks 2 over the first one? (I saw your other comment here)
So you speak for most men in observable reality? 🤔 And if you saw my comment then why are you asking?
I'm not even suppose to derp de der. Dante may be the most obnoxious protagonist in a movie. I like this movie. If he weren't such a cry baby, I may have loved it.
That's the whole fucking point of Dante's character!
@@karldammann I understand that.
Clerks 2 and dogma is a must..ya Goofy m8te from Australia
BROOOO Im so glad you reacted to this. I love the View Askewniverse. I remember you reacted to Dogma before and I dont believe you didnt anything else from the View Askewniverse. Please react to more if you havent already seen them. Like also to man great video. Thanks for always giving all us amazing content man.
