: Why did you get rid of the original ending of clerks? It was the most the most approprate ending to Dante's Day, just like the ending of "Empire".

But the movie was a comedy until that point. It would've been completely inappropriate for a comedy to end on that note. I would've never loved Kevin's films, and would've considered to be a lame hack filmmaker if that had been done.
That was how Kevin felt, so BAM, it's gone.
