...and not the small, but zealot-loyal cadre of board readers, who have no idea that Jay & Silent BOb have their own funnybook, or that they even MAKE funnybooks about people without superpowers, the possibility MIGHT exist for some of the "comic continuity" to show up in a movie.
While the comics are fine fun, I think they exist to "tie up" ends for only the most rabid of fans, and serve their creator as a fun, gai-den, side-story, or "gloss" on a larger work.

: : .. a cryptic hint at some kinda simian content in the next movie, or are you like me, and refer to anything, in general, as a "monkey" of some sort.
: : (I.e. sitting with a pair of plyers, unblinking stare and rock-steady hands over a complex and intricately wired bomb, about to make the decision of "re wire or green wire," with a dramatic bead of sweat rolling down the forehead, I would, in a fashion I hope would be percieved of as both rakish AND cavelier,say "Let's see if I can't defuse this monkey." )
: : You can imagine the speculation, what with Jay & SB in their sunset walk-off in MALLRATS...
: : I think it'd be cool if you set the collective fan base on our collective ear by announcing that the much conjectured-over "VA5" will be, in fact, nothing to do with Jersey, and everything to do with being EVERY WHICH WAY BUT LOOSE 2- THE FINAL CONFLICT..
: : It could be to monkey-movies what UNFORGIVEN was to Westerns.
: : Anyhow, the question stands- Is "monkey" a hint on the title of VA5, or a general catch-all phrase to describe a big ordeal.
: : Teeming leigons of fans feverishly await your response.
