To say this flick sold out has got to be one of the most ignorant comments I've heard. Where did it do that? And secondly, Will Ferrell is always funny in everything he does, if not for him on SNL, that show would be terrible. The Scooby Doo thing got huge laughs from the crowd I saw the film with. And The Fugitive thing, just another movie parody in the film. Please, don't bad mouth this purely funny comedy, something we really don't see anymore these days.
: Any scene with Will Ferrell. This stuff was so unfunny... he lets J&SB leave with the orangutan and thinks it's a kid? That's not funny. He jumps into the water like in the Fugitive? Ha-ha, so funny. Shannon Doherty in the next Scream film, and the monkey is the killer? Say what?
: And for the last person, I went to see this film because I am a fan of Kevin Smith, I've seen Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma, all several times.
: I'm glad to see that Kevin has such great taste (Prince, The Time, Star Wars), but damn did this movie really sellout in places and go from extremely funny to tedious. The movie seems like a good half hour was taken out, and let the film is way too long. All the filler with the Scooby Doo should have been the first things cut. Even Kevin can't think this stuff is funny! Good call on the Time though, anyone dissing Prince or The Time should get their ass kicked, as they don't know music.
: The stuff at the end with J&SB kicking those kid's asses was hilarious, too.

: Oh, Kevin... when is that Prince documentary coming out? Is it true that you were unhappy there because the audience was so skewed into saying how
: GREAT the album was, and anything negative was not allowed to be stated? How is that a debate, then? Btw, what did you think of the Rainbow Children album, Kevin?
