In Reply to: kevin, any thoughts on a "clerks" reshoot posted by nude pinky playing card on March 16, 2003 at 01:10:48:
: I bought the clerks lost scene comic about a year ago.
Why'd you wait so long?
: i loved it. it was hilarious.
Thanks.
: easily could have stayed in the picture i though.
Sure.
: i was curious as to why you left it out?
Because it would've been too expensive a sequence for us to shoot, and we
would've had to secure a funeral parlor, which didn't seem likely at the time (that
shot of the boys heading into and running out of the funeral parlor? completely
stolen).
: was it original in the clerks script, or was it just written way after the film was made.
No, it was in the script. The Alyssa portion was originally a character called Bonnie,
but all the dialogue was basically the same.
: I know im probably nuts for thinking this, but have you ever considered filming
that?
Nah. The comic was enough for me.
: also, have you guys thought up any upcoming special features for the jersey girl
dvd.
Nope. Waaaay to early.
: i know its early, but did the set have any addition film crew for a behind the scenes
featurette or cast interviews?
Very little.
