"You know, there's a million fine-looking woman in the world dude. But they don't bring you lasagna to work. Most of 'em just cheat on ya." my favorite one out of the whole collection.
I'm a woman and my bf and I dressed up and Jay and Silent Bob for Halloween last year (I was bob) and I created a meme that said "you know there's a million fine looking women in the world dude, but they don't all dress up like Silent Bob for Halloween. Most of them just cheat on you". Was a huge hit
Jay and silent Bob had a really interesting relationship in hindsight, they actively just say the worst things to each other but still have a great friendship
@@Osrsinvictus Jason mewes was actually on dope so he would commonly get sugar cravings due to him being on hard drugs. It’s sad but he’s recovered and is doing pretty well
@The ill will no we did not evolve to be bothered by those things. We have been conditioned by religion and society to consider those things taboo. HUGE difference between the two
It's funny when you thing of it: Kevin Smith likes to talks a lot! I mean really a lot! So the character he plays is always silent. Similar thing with George Carlin playing a catholic cardinal in Dogma.
I feel like the silent in silent bob is because most things don’t matter and need to be described all the time, he literally only speaks when it’s something important to him or something of the sort where he has to speak out. Why waste words on something that’s gonna be forgotten, speak the truth and speak what’s important.
Ming That's not true because the lesbian girl told Ben Affleck in the movie about her friend having sex with a dead guy in the Quick Stop bathroom and that happened in Clerks.
Jeffrey William Ming’s saying the chasing Amy backstory happened before clerks not the movie itself. I mean it’s entirely possible that silent bob went silent after the events of the chasing any story.
He also talks at the end of Dogma when Chris Rock says "if you clean up your language, I just might put in a good word for you." Silent Bob says "thanks."
You missed a couple Silent Bob lines: 1. In the end of 'Dogma,' when Rufus tells him and Jay that he'll put in a good word for the two of them to get into Heaven if they clean up their language a bit, Silent Bob responds "Thanks." 2. In the beginning of 'Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,' when the boy trying to buy a nickel- bag off of them talks about "That movie with Prince in it," Silent Bob clarifies it by saying "Purple Rain."
Ive modelled alot of my high school social life after Silent Bob. Hung out with a loudmouth and basically said nothing. And I loved when I did say something, it always made people actually listen to me. Ive since learned to talk, but in social gatherings, I like to keep my mouth shut and just take in
And if you're being dishonest? (Sorry... just REALLY hate people using that phrase, "if I'm being honest." Basically saying, "hey... I'm not usually an honest person.")
I was blown away by him trusting the Silent Bob actor to go from never saying anything to this long poignant line until I learned that was Kevin Smith the whole time. Still a great monologue.
I loved the "thats your que man" with a little smirk as he leaned back. I think Jay definitely recognizes and reapects Bobs intelligence despite the ahot he talks.
Kevin Smith is an absolutely amazing writer when he has something to write. I still don't know of another writer/director that has pulled off so much of the shit he has. I was absolutely fucking livid during Chasing Amy....for the same reason as the character. I don't know why either, I fell into that movie way to much. I've never had a relationship like that either so it wasn't something I related to. Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes existing pleases me. The fact that Jay is directly based off of young Jason is fucking beautiful. I actually want to see Steve O on Jason and Kevins podcast. For Steve and Jason, not even for me, though I would like to see it. They have a lot in common.
"The one who speaks... and he will, at great length. Whether you want him to or not. The other one ... Well, he's the quiet type." -The Metatron, Dogma.
This proves anyone can be a great actor so long as they're saying something they believe is true. Smith has Brando vibes here. I guess the trick to a career in acting is being able to kid yourself that every line the writer gives you is not complete bullshit. Actors are people paid by producers to convince themselves of a writer's narrow worldview.
Apperantly, Clerks 3 was cancelled. But, this fall, there's going to be a new Jay and Silent Bob movie! It's called Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. It's were they're going back to Hollywood to stop a Bluntman and Chronic reboot.
you skipped something he said in dogma. in the end after god shows up the angel said there may be space in heaven for jay if he cleans up his language and silent bob said got it. i paraphrased a bit the whole reason i came to this video was to figure out what was said exactly.
Chasing Amy has been around for like what 30 years or something and I've never watched it even though I like Jay and silent Bob, from this clip I realized I should have watched that movie a long time ago I'm about to be 29
