So this chick Diane Werts, in the Part 2 television and radio section in Newsday Long Island totally trashed the Clerks cartoon by saying, "it was painfull" to watch and you will feel "your head throbbing just minutes into the cartoon". Later in the article after the bashing, she mentions almost with glee that she has never seen the Clerks movie and quotes Leonard Maltin's movie guide because she couldn't do her job and take an hour and a half to watch the movie and form her own opinion. She also didn't bother to talk to any Kevin Smith fans to maybe get an understanding about the cult following Mr. Smith haws and how many people are looking forward to this cartoon. The whole fun of being a Kevin Smith fan is having other people just like you identify with Kevin's ideas and circumstances.
