Well, watching this was a waste of time, why does /tv like this

>>81871584
>Woah, like, just enjoy life and chill :^)
That is so antithetical to what happens in the movie I actually think you enjoyed it but you just want to shitpost because that's all you know how to do.

I wasn't even supposed to be here today.

Kevin Smith doesn't deserve his popularity. He's a shitty writer and even worse director

This movie's actually hitting closer to home the older I get.

>>81871584
I honestly forget what the theme of the movie was, or if there even was one, but I do remember the downright amateurish acting and directing and trash-tier dialogue that made this a pile of irredeemable shit which launched the career of a hack who never even displayed accidental talent once in his life.

>>81871778
>you will never be this butthurt about a movie that cost $10,000 to make

What are some essential "young slackers who don't know what they want out of life" movies?

Clerks
Kids(?)
Singles
Dazed and Confused
Everybody Wants Some

I'm exactly as butthurt as I sound. It's fine to sort of wrap the existence of Kevin Smith into an easy, cynical narrative about the stupidity of the masses, but when I encounter, in our lord's year two thousand and seventeen, a human being who actually says they fucking like Clerks?

>>81871791
I thought it cost $33,000

>Dude innocent people on the Death Star

Yeah fuck off, militaries since medieval times use army engineers to build their shit

All of the lore shows its the military who do the construction, the Empire tried hiring Geonosians to construct the deathstar and they just ran off. They used Imperial military engineers and droids.

>>81871831

Pretty fucking butthurt. Clerks is a good movie. Do your worst.

>>81871831
I like Clerks. I dunno if I like Clerks 3. It's a thing.

>>81871830
Seen it and actually didn't like it.

Didn't hate it but found it mediocre.

This, Adventureland, and SLC Punk too.

You'll like it. The dialogue is a bit "over-written" which is not Linklater's style at all, but it has very good moments of angst. Nicky Katt is scary good.

>>81871976
>Dude i'm totally gonna make a movie one day
>Goddammit Kevin you've been saying that for years fuck off

>>81871972
quite a bit considering Kevin was only allowed to shoot in the store at night after closing and if it was in color it would be very noticeable that it was night time.

Saw clerks 2 first and loved it. Tried to watch the original and I lost interest in about half an hour. 2 is g.o.a.t though.

Oh compared to New York I am sure it's more affordable. I pay $1,000 a month for a one bedroom including utilities.

>>81872132
I pay 2,400 a month for a two bedroom including utilities.

>>81872162
That's almost San Francisco prices. Almost. Thank God we don't live there.

But location is key right?

>>81871844
>Geonosians

because those existed in 1993

>>81871584
i sometimes feel ashamed to say this is my all time favourite film

>>81872177
>location is key right?
It sure is

Clerks 1 and 2 are so different.

if you grew up with old Kevin smith you might not like jis newer stuff. if you started with the new stuff, you might not like his old stuff.

I hate his new stuff. It just became overly grotesque when trying to be funny instead of subtly funny like his first few movies.

>>81872219
It's not just rent that's expensive either. Sure it hurts that I could get the same amount of space in PA for about $600 a month but fucking restaurants and any type of night life is just insanely overpriced. I went to Chelsea Market earlier this week and they were charging $5.50 for a grilled cheese. Fucking maddening.

>Clerks
>Clerks 2
>Mallrats

even though he has made some this these movies are still top notch classics.

Nope, sorry wrong.

You just prove my point, dumbass

>>81872386
my point was that you have no authority on the matter and have no idea what you're talking about. You browse a cantoneese knitting forum, he actually makes movies. Who gives a shit about your opinion that has no depth or thought?

>he's objectively a shitty director
Why? that's the only thing i'm trying to get you to come around to, give your arguments some definition rather than just saying something that anyone can say.

You have the right to say whatever you want about how shitty it is, but your assertion is immediately dismissed if you can't have any points as to why. Kevin smith has a big portfolio and made a lot of money on his films, that are revered in cinema and will be remembered as classics. He OBJECTIVELY is a good film maker.

>>81872600
All his movies are basically people talking in front of static camera and geek references with poop jokes. A lot of money? Almost all of his movies are flopped except few. And i'm not even talking about critical aclaim he get.

>insinuating whatever /tv/ talks about is not just what people in general talk about

you need to get out more my man

>>81871830
That poster is an instant turnoff

It's trying to sell me back to myself

It works only if i lack any self-awareness

>>81872287
Fuck off Kevin

>>81871728
That's why it was considered good by people older than you at the time it came out.

>>81871584
watch the cartoon instead

it's only six episodes, and it's lightyears better than anything else Kevin Smith did.

I give Smith some credit for letting Dave Mandel, Brian Kelley, and Steve Lookner do something so far from what the movie was like. And Smith was there in the writing room, so it's not like they did it behind his back.

Filming in black and white doesn't save any money. It costs exactly the same as color.
