ROFL. That was my exact first thought too.

I just...can't...bring myself to buy it on Blu-ray when I have it on DVD lol. Especially since Kevin Smith autographed it for me.

Now all we need is Mallrats. Plus, a possibly restored version of Drawing Flies and all the other films that are View Askew that Kevin Smith didn't direct.

Mallrats and Jersey Girl on blu would be great.
I have the mallrats HD-DVD. I'd like to see the extended cut on blu.

going to get the set tuesday. wondering if target will have it at a fair price. Although I may go with amazon and get the 2 day shipping option with star trek as well

Quite honestly, Mallrats is probably my least favorite Kevin Smith film, though I'd buy it just to add to my collection. And if it comes out, they need to have both cuts of the movie via seamless branching.

Plus a proper release of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

Plus Clerks TAS. They can do it, I'm sure. I'd rebuy that thing in an instant if it was remastered in HD. Honestly, if the price wasn't bad, I'd probably be willing to rebuy an upscale even, just so that I'd get the benefit of lossless sound and high bitrate video.

Not to mention Jersey Girl, of course.

I was watching the 10 years after Q&A portion (I'm guessing this is the same one on the 10th Anniversary DVD) for "Clerks" and man...that was such a bummer. Really seem like the questions put some of them in a bad mood. Then I saw the 10 years after Q&A for "Chasing Amy"...

These two Q&A's...the questioning really brought out the skeletons from the closet.

And I take it that pre-2007, Jason Mewes is just out of it? His answers on both Q&A's made me wonder if his brain is fried.

Jason Mewes had a very terrible drug problem and Kevin Smith refused to work with him for a long time. Mewes wanted a sequel to Clerks so Smith said he would do the sequel on the condition that Mewes get sober.

The idea of Clerks 2 existed far before that. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was apparently originally supposed to be a direct sequel to Clerks.

And really, Smith wouldn't "throw together" a sequel to Clerks JUST BECAUSE he could bribe Mewes with a part in it. Mewes would have been in Jersey Girl if he was clean at the time, and he was later in Zack and Miri, so it doesn't really matter WHAT Smith does, Mewes could still get a part in it.

Complete your collection. KS has the autographed Blus up on his site for pre-sale. I've got my order in.

Kevin Smith is a horrible director and writer, but this is his one good film.
