: I mean,I love Kevin,but Mallrats,in my opinion,was meadow nuggets.
It wasn't all _that_ bad. Some bits had potential. Sure, the Volkswagen bit was overdone, and the stinkpalm bit was just too gross.
But, the Superman/sex bit was hilarious; the 'psychic' / 3rd nipple bit was pretty good; the escalator bit paid off well; it was hilarious to see Bob outdistancing La Fours and even Jay and then do the Batman thing; and the "Boregasm" bit kicked ass.
And there were some priceless lines: "You had cable;" "You fucker!" (followed by smacking Bob's head); "You really should board your comics:" and others.
And he had Stan "the man" Lee in it!
So give Mallrats a little respect, for the pieces that did work.
