Go see Clerks II and my name on the big screen
This was first posted on MySpace on July 21, 2006
This morning I ran (well I drove fast) over to Austell to catch the 11:00 showing of Clerks II. There were only 8 of us in the theater that early, but I didn't care. I have been waiting for this flick for waaaayyy too long now.
Unlike so many things in life, this was worth the wait. Joel Siegel can kiss my big white butt. He really missed one of the best, if not the best movie endings ever. From the jail scene to the color switch to black and white at the end I was in awe. So much raw feelings that were true, honest and touching. The whole film had funny moments, view askew jokes...but what it really has is heart. I saw pieces of my life on the screen. I saw the things through other sets of eyes to. It did get me thinking. But I was only thinking when I wasn't trying to avoid any urine leakage from laughing so hard.
You must go and see this flm. Go now. Don't wait. Everyone around you will be chatting about this flick and if you don't see it soon you will be the one on the outside of the cirlcle trying to nod knowingly when you don't have a clue about what is being discussed.
Another highlight of the film is Trevor. This kid was amazing. I am always suspect of new actors that join in on the View Askewniverse. Kinda like giving a second look to the one person that arrives late to a party. This guy pulled me in. He was fantastic. He made Elias come to life in a way where you want to just hug him, protect him and teach him. Brilliant Trevor. Brilliant.
Of course I loved seeing my favorite duos again--Dante and Randal--Jay and Silent Bob. Those characters always bring a smile to my face. I have my fan girl crushes on each of the characters and actors as well. Those boys could read the phonebook and it would be entertaining. The Becky and Emma characters were a great female balance to the rest of the cast. Kudos to Rosario and Jennifer. They pulled their weight and more.
This flick is worth more than one viewing. Which is what I plan to do.
One last thing...I was lucky enough to be one of the 10,000 MySpacers to get their name in the credits. It was so cool to see my name roll up the screen as the music played.
I giggled all the way home.
Now it's time for the Paul Thorn show tonight. What a perfect day.
