Any word on the plan for Clerks II tomorrow (Friday aka Opening Day)?

I have a really depressing fear that it's totally going to suck.

I'm getting the same "Meta-movie" vibe I got from Stuck On You, only instead of it being the Farelly Brothers using their "full creative control" clause to stick it to their studio just like Cher does in the context of the movie . . . it's like, "Oh, so, ten years later and you're still making the same flick, huh, Kevin Smith? Only, now it's a lot less charming and a lot more losery--just like Dante and Randall at 24 working at the Quick Stop versus Dante and Randall at 34 working at Mooby's . . .

I don't know, I hope it rocks, of course. But I still don't like the vibe I'm getting.

Peace

I've got the same fear. However, that doesn't release me from my obligation to see the movie.

It'd be nice if KSmith started reading some scripts, instead of writing them, and maybe try making someone else's movie for once. Not saying he should sign on to just any old piece of crap just for the halibut, but he needs to do something to shake things up.

Anyway, I think I'm bailing tonight anyway. Not enough sleep the last week. Need to catch up before the big shindig tomorrow.

We should write a movie, and make KSmith direct it.
