to retarded lines like...
"animated clerks was a supreme kick in the balls to any real clerks fan."
so what you are trying to say is that anybody who didn't think the way you did just cannot be a "real clerks fan", its this kind of inane stupidity that pisses me off...
for one, I liked the cartoon, out of restriction is born genius, so they had to tone down the language, so what, big deal, everything doesn't have to contain the "F" word to be funny...
So Jay and Silent Bob weren't drug dealers, again so what, they weren't in Mallrats either...
as these seem to be the only way that the show was toned down, I'm guessing that this is what you were referring to...
To be honest I thought they turned out an incredibly well written, funny, half hour of animated goodness, that despite the network limitations managed to be more subversive than anything that was possible in the original movie...
and just so you know, I do count myself as a "real clerks fan", I not only saw it at the cinema on its original release (warwick arts centre rules) but I also managed to blag the local chain of Blockbusters where I worked at the time to order in copies, I own the film on Video, Laserdisc and DVD (not quite sure why on this one, can I get some money back?)...
anyway, I think I've ranted on long enough, if you didn't mean what you said then fine but at least try and think about what your posting because lines like that just really get my back up.
