October 18, 2019 – Jay. And. Silent. Bob. Reboot. (There will be cursing in this reaction/review because this is a Kevin Smith movie, of course there will be.)

Well, fuck. XD so, similarly to last night’s double feature, I’d not watched Strike Back in years. So watching it was lovely.

The movie was amazing. I laughed in multitudes. The camels and references to movies in general and other Askewniverse movies were peppered everywhere. Loved it all of course.

And having been at Kevin Smith’s panel at SDCC this year where he talked about this movie and showed us two scenes in the movie, it just gave everything a bit more meaning than just watching the movie.

So of course, funny is expected, but there’s also a lot of heart in this story. There are emotional moments and I’m gonna say, because just deal with it, Ben Affleck’s scene before the climax of the movie is a lovely scene. It really is a movie for the fans. Not only of Kevin Smith movies but of superhero movies and other Hero’s Journey type films. It makes you think about life and purpose.

I enjoyed the fuck out of Reboot. I can’t wait for Clerks III when it comes out. And I still would have enjoyed the Mallrats series that didn’t go through.

Ok.

I don’t know if y’all will get this when this comes out normally, or maybe it won’t matter if you go see the tour that’s gonna happen for this and get to watch it with Jason and Kevin, but there was a 7 min intro to the movie which was fun.

STAY THROUGH THE WHOLE CREDITS. There are little scenes throughout the credits. As Kevin Smith promised us in Hall H. And there were some end credit footage but we didn’t get to see that because that was for the Tuesday people.

OH. Right. During these, we get to see Stan Lee. It was during the IMDB boat footage from whenever it was shot. That was lovely. And there is a small Stan moment in the movie but it was quick and it was close to the start in Brodie’s comicbook store.

I definitely feel like bingeing the rest of the Askewniverse soon XD
