: That the Clerks DVD cost basically as much as the movie did, if not more?
: If so, thats gotta be an industry first, like how Clerks soundtrack cost as much as the movie did.
Well, the "CLERKS" DVD was basically a direct port of the laserdisc release, so all the elements were already in place and paid for. I'd imagine the only expenses were authoring and doing the artwork for the DVD, so it wouldn't have cost a whole lot.
A "CLERKS" 10th Anniversary Edition, though, would easily cost more than it cost to shoot the film.
