Apparently Kevin Smith is planning a sequel to Clerks [note: originally linked to Yahoo! News], called The Passion of the Clerks. (via this week’s “All the Rage” at Comics Bulletin)
WTF? I thought Jay and Silent Bob was supposed to be the final entry in his Jersey series. Or whatever it’s called. Something that doesn’t include Jersey Girl. You know, the movies with Quik Stop and, well, Jay and Silent Bob.
Apparently it’s a “Whatever happened to…” story that picks up Dante and Randall’s lives 10 years later, and… you know, they haven’t changed all that much. “It’s about what happens when that lazy, 20-something malaise lasts into your 30s. Those dudes are kind of still mired … but in a place where it’s time to actually grow up…”
Who knows, it could actually be good. Or it could suck. Kevin Smith is kind of hit-and-miss.
- Clerks: Brilliant!
- Mallrats: A festering pile of… well, anyway…
- Chasing Amy: Good.
- Dogma: Good, if a bit over the top in places.
- Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back: Had its moments, but overall… eh.
