Clerks II has one of the worst endings I have ever seen. The jail scene is ridiculous.
The ending to Clerks II is easily superior to the ending of the original, where Dante and Randal hatefuck and the movie falls apart.
I'll take Jay overexposure than Mewes debut in the original Clerks. His acting in that is awful.Randal's speech at the end of II put a tear in my eye. :'(
Also, the original is poorly acted in general.

Damn it, you are right. There's still just something... THERE in the first that isnt there in the second. ???
That scene is fucking lame.Clerks II has one of the worst endings I have ever seen. The jail scene is ridiculous.
Thats it, you, me, OUTSIDE! >:( :punch
Clerks II is anything but a Hollywood film. Just because it doesn't have atrocious acting, poor lighting or amateur level crew doesn't mean it's a sellout popcorn flick.
Even in content, Clerks II is funnier, better paced with better writing, tightly edited and well made. Nothing will make me not love the original, even with all its faults, but it's really just 90 minutes of douchebagery. Clerks II has a story.
Clerks 2 is complete shit
Clerks II. :D
I have seen neither.

Dammit Juice, put the original at the top of your que.
YOU STAY OUT OF THIS, I'M SPEAKING TO CAJOLE! >:( :lol

I'm sorry. I'm changing my tag (I forgot I could could do it now).
The original Clerks is a classic; the latest is just another movie.
Technically wouldn't the star wars prequels be indie films since Lucas funds them himself 100%? (Fox just distributes the films)
So does Rodriguez I believe.
I believe Indy is financed by Lucas Film, as well. Spielberg just has very different viewpoints on the union than Lucas.Yeah. It is weird. Spielberg couldn't direct ROTJ because of the guild yet he could do Jones which is a Lucas owned creation as well. Weird.

The concept of an independent movie really doesn't mean much when it's applied to most pre-80s movies. I don't think it meant much of anything before budgets flew out of control in the late 70s and early 80s.
And frankly, Star Wars cost a lot more than any lower budget movies happening around its time. Lucas had a big hit under his belt with American Grafitti, and he had the vocal and financial support of industry heavies. He could do what he wanted to a degree, although nobody would give him the total bank on a risky scifi venture.
Anyway, more specifically, the "indie movie" didn't mean much until Richard Linklater made Slacker. That's when it became a buzzword.

I think you need to re-read that post you quoted again. :D
Yes and I wish I were dead.
And Rolling Rock tastes like fucking shit now. Well, more than before.
People who didnt work much customer service might get off on watching the original more than once, but there's only so many jokes about customers you can do and people saying fuck and rants about customers before your realize you've heard it all at your own jobs in the past.

This is exactly why I think the first movie is so much better. So many more people can relate to it than the sequel. You have heard it all. Your friends probably have, too. Clerks says it, and you realize the whole world has heard it before. It's a tragicomedy!
I've never gotten the Mallrats love. :-[Classic early-90's nostalgia. The film is full of it. It's one of those movies that make you feel warm and fuzzy in a odd way about that time.
