In Reply to: VA5 possible plot... posted by Douglas Fir on November 04, 2000 at 18:04:00:
I think it's very possible that they will appear as real people. Kevin said this will be much more slap-sticky than Mallrats. Taking that into consideration, I can see this movie turning into a superhero parody. I don't know for sure if it will, be or not, but it's not out of the question.
While it would have been corny for Bluntman and Chronic to appear in Chasing Amy (given the seriousness of the movie), it wouldn't be corny for them to appear in a much more lighthearted movie. It would be kind of like Silent Bob dressing up like Batman for Operation Dark Night in Mallrats.
Either way, though, I'm sure it'll be fun.

: Bearing in mind the information that Kevin gave us at Vulgarthon I have an idea what the possible storyline may be. I believe that Bluntman & Chronic (having been a cult sucess) is being made into a motion picture. For some reason Jay & Bob take a road trip (to where-ever the film is being shot) making various stops at various acquaintances abodes (explaining all the various old characters popping up again). This would explain why we get to see Holden and Banky again (because they obviously created Bluntman & Chronic and would be involved in the film) and also explain the gag were we see Affleck, Damon and Van Sant discussing "Good Will Hunting 2" (if they are in Hollywood or something the joke would fit). And of course a Brodie appearance would fit because he must have gone on to greater things after he quit "The Tonight Show"!!!
: Anyway this all sprang from the info that a new Bluntman & Chronic mini-series would be done to tie-in with the film and new Bluntman & Chronic action figures would also be released. If my theory is correct then the mini-series would be an adaption of the Bluntman & Chronic feature-film that we will see being made in VA5. Because if Bluntman & Chronic are so important to the plot-line of VA5 (which Kevin did say) I can't see them appearing as real people - because that would just be too corny!!!
: Anyway thoughts or ideas people...
