In Reply to: J&SBSB Theatrical Trailer, what'd ya think? Repost posted by ThE FoZZ on July 05, 2001 at 21:52:06:
: So I bought a ticket to go see the Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back trailer and there was no more than 25 people in the theater, maybe because it was a 3:30 show but I figured Scary Movie 2 has to be popular but it wasn't...so the J&SB SB trailer was the last one to air and I felt like a stooge because I was the only one clapping when I heard Affleck. The tralier had the mainly the same clips from the internet trailer but had some new funny stuff, and I can see why Kev didn't want some of that stuff in there but overall the trailer was very good. So after watching a great trailer I decided to stick around and hopefully see a decently funny movie, I wasn't expecting much because it's a sequel. But the movie was VERY dull only with one are two funny parts mainly the opening but after that very bland and unentertaining.
: My question to you those what'd you think of the trailer and the movie too.
Hey I just got back from a 7:45 feature of Scary Movie 2. And like in your showing there wasn't more than 25 people in the theater. So it wasn't the time of your feature causing the lack of people, it was that Scary Movie 2 sucked. It sucked bad. The funniest part was the beginning. The only reason I paid $4.50 was to see the Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back trailer. I wish I could say different but I wasn't enthusiastic sitting through the trailer. The only thought racing through my mind was 'Is it possible the almighty Kevin Smith could put out a shitty movie??.' Luckily I was able to keep control by telling myself 'No, it can't happen. Don't worry, Kevin wouldn't do that. Besides he's said himself that he doesn't want to put anything remotely funny on the trailer so that all of his true born fans will not be dissappointed.' What was great about the J&SBSB trailer was that I've only seen it once. I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen the trailer to that horrible, horrible Scary Movie 2. I really hope Kevin will put me to shame and make the greatest movie he has ever.
Thanks for your time.
