And LOL, Tarantino liking the scene where a woman's toenails are painted? Shocker.

I have never related to a scene/character more, than when Randal says "I hate everyone and everything seems stupid to me, but you were always the counter balance to that"

Clerks 2 was disturbingly brilliant. It really drags you into the film with it's in depth conversations, and kind of like a disgusting train wreck of events, you Can't look away, and now you're part of it, but at the end of the day everyone's Heart is in the right place.

Did anyone else notice that after Kevin Smith calls it a wrap and everyone is hugging and stuff, Brian O'Halloran carries on stocking the shelves with cigarettes? I'm guessing that he's thinking to himself "I'm not even supposed to be here today".....

Moral of the story: Never believe Kevin Smith when he says he's closing the book on something.

I never really put together how dark the ending to this movie was. It kind of seems to be framing a "happily ever after" ending but it transforms into a dark twisted "same old ever after",with a sense of existential dread. It basically ends the same as the graduate. The heroes get exactly what they wanted and the world is theirs, but the movie hangs on the extra second just to fill the audience with a sense of unease. It's beautiful really.

Love Clerks 1&2 no matter how many times I watch them they always make me laugh

Love Clerks 2, especially Randal arguing with the LOTR super fan.

It’s still a very emotional movie. I just want to cry when it ends.

Thank god they all went through with it and made this epic film. The View Askewniverse will always hold a special place in my heart.

Who's ready for clerks III? ✋️

Being a huge fan of Clerks had me a skeptic as well of the part 2. In what IMHO is a rarity, the sequel really was a well written & shot film that met all expectations and actually surpassed some with such a powerful ending! This is just as excellent, I love the candid & honesty of Kevin Smith. It really comes forth in his projects. You can see it is not about the money, but keeping honest to his vision & I respect the hell out of that.

@1:07:55 Kevin was so nervous that he put one out and lit another one.....TARANTINO is a legend

Jeff Anderson is so good even if he doesn't like it too much. You can tell he's still having fun

Dear Mr. Smith, Thank you for entertaining me for the past three decades; Anderson (Randal) is my doppelganger, and it has freaked me out all this time. I just watched your doc. that was just as enlightening (Amazing) as the sequel itself. Please let Jeffery know that a loyal fan is so appreciative, that he was as critical as he was, to ensure that the sequel was as genuine and emotional as the original masterpiece. P.S. Jersey Girl was a wonderful movie and everyone that prompt to watch it, LOVES IT>

Love how passionate Quentin Tarantino is.

Somehow the melancholic attitude of Jeff Anderson when he says "being in you 30's and still not finding your way" spreads on the whole documentary. After seeing this, Clerks 2 will always have a grain of that feel for me

It's been a PLEASURE coming into and growing with ALL your creations Kevin. BRAVO!

Best “making of” extra I’ve ever seen. I love Kevin Smith. His heart his creativity and the great stories with amazing people he gives us. Every movie should be made with so much love and intricate investment.

Back here because I want to remember how much I loved a Clerks sequel.

I loved this, thanks so much. I got to share Clerks II with an old friend, who loved Dogma. He loved it, The Donkey show nearly killed him. Great achievement, all of you.

Kevin Smiths movies have the best extras in my opinion...

I'm a 90's kid.. so I grew up watching all of Kevin Smith's movies beginning with Clerks. He sorta has his own genre esp when his dialogue is concerned.. But Clerks 2 was one of those SUPER RARE sequels that did the original movie justice

1:06:20 when Quentin approves that must feel amazing, lol kev playing it cool...

I think what I most love about both Clerks, and Clerks 2, is that this is my time, my generation. Both these movies speak to me in a very awesome and funny way. Not that I think Kevin will ever see my KZfaq comment, but “Thank you Mr. Smith, you and your friends have given us all something very awesome to remember our time with!”

They're the real life Randall and Dante. I'm sure I'm the last to realize this.

Randal is my favorite character! It makes me a little bit surprised that Jeff Anderson doesn't like to do it

I just heard they are filming clerks 3 right now! I'm freakin stoked!

Been waiting FOREVER for someone to upload this. Great documentary

I love how well you document your productions. This is the kind of stuff that lets you in on the realities behind these amazing films. Breaking it down to the simplest human elements. I find documentaries normally boring, even this one, but you can't help but be interested in the behind the scenes on your favorite big pictures. Not enough documenting on film sets.... MORE MORE MORE But. Less commentary more behind the scenes on the cast n crew

love Jeff Andersons mimics and voice. great actin genious movie

What a great pleasure to watch, thank you very much for sharing it here!

I love seeing three of my favorite directors brainstorming together. Quentin is such a character guy in terms of how he likes the story. And Rodriguez is more a technical guy giving like cutting notes.

I'm glad it includes him being so negative immediately before the festival. Fun perspective, wild ride!

I just realized the producer is snowball.

I think the end makes us all remember that one friend that left us a child that we thought we would grow to be family men together and have our kids be friends and stuff. This makes us remember the past, the good and the bad.

lol, "I am done telling those stories" - Kevin Smith 2006 2019 - Coming Soon: Jay and Silent Reboot

Love Both Clerks. Had seen Clerks II and Loved it. Had to go back and watch Clerks

....and here comes Clerks 3

Man i give everyone credit for coming back and kevin for writing a comedic mastapiece... honestly the funniest movie ive ever seen clerks 2 baby!! Cant wait for the 3rd to come out. Randal and elias characters were so good and when you throw jay and silent bob in on top of them its legendary

Clerks 2 is one of my favourite movies ever! Its so funny and relatable and emotional like its just amazing, i can watch it over and over, me and my friend sometimes quote it its great, your best movie Kevin!

I love that they do these docs for every movie Kevin does.

I love Clerks 2!!! My fav movie you guys have made and I love them all!

I am definitely in love with these two prophets 😍❤️

Pure magic, loved Rosario, "Disgusted, but I can't look away..." Now if only you'd make Dogma II.

Watching this for the 100th time (going back to the dvd I lost years and years ago) in advance of Clerks 3 in two weeks!

I remember I was on the USS Detroit an Earl New Jersey just a few streets away and I remember when they were filming a few scenes at the quick stop. I remember pulling my car to the side and watching them for hours. I grew up watching the first clerks so this was absolutely mind-blowing for me.

There's just something about the magic you, together offer. Kevin, when you narrate or do public speaking it is so easy to listen. And that is coming from an impatient, cranky old woman.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I have it on DVD and used to watch it once a month for years and all the documentaries and commentary too. It just makes me happy.

Its weird hearing him talk about Harvey Weinstein like he's a human being.

lol literally have never noticed Kev's giant bald-spot until this vid.

I'm so happy Jeff agreed to play Randall again.. It was one of the best sequels ever made. right next to Terminator 2

The donkey show is what nailed Rosario down... I love her so much.

My favorite movie EVER!!!! hopefully they make a part 3!! 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Holy shit I would be so nervous to have Quentin Tarantino review my movie in person but it's awesome to see him so excited and telling Kevin how much he liked the movie

Not the end. Jay and Silent Bob Reboot 2019

Even if you don't like most of his films you got to admire Kevin Smith as he's someone who knows his strengths and weaknesses and plays to his loyal audience who stick by him. Also one of the best directors for loading up his DVDs/Blu Rays with ton of extras and great documentaries like this that in some cases are better then the feature films themselves (also the one that was done for Clerks is well worth watching too). I like Clerks 2, certainly isn't as groundbreaking as the first film but it has it's own charms. I think the original cast of Jeff Anderson and Brian O'Halloran aren't the greatest actors ever but you can tell they are having fun with it, especially Anderson who seemed to have a real love hate it relationship with Clerks. I think Rosario Dawson adds a bit of backbone to the film, and you totally believe her character would fall in love with Dante. For it's weaknesses, it doesn't quite have that low key charm of the original which is one of that films qualities, that dance sequence is awful and takes me out of the film, none of the new characters are as memorable as the original cast. But besides that it's a fun little movie and a good follow up. Great documentary to watch to see how hard and tough it is to get a film off the ground.

Thanks for posting.

Who knew Silent Bob was rocking the most epic mullet of all time under that hat.

I respect Kevin Smith so much. I dunno what it is about him that can make me listen to him for hours.

clerks 3 ( 2022 ) which is coming out ne dayyyy now LOL!!! also Jay & silent Bob REBOOT!!!!! ( 2019 ) MAN kevin smith is a LEGEND!!!!! in my books, hes wrote SO MUCH and stuck with some wicked OG's... like HE NEVER EVER FORGOT ABOUT FRIENDS AND FAMILY!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!! DOGMA, Clerks, Clerks II, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and JUST SO MUCH energy his put into them!!! I love it & Love ALL OF THEM!!!! Kevin Smith I FRICKEN LOVE YOU MAN!!!!!! and glad everyone got HEALTHIER & BETTER!!!!!!

so glad u did clerks 2 it was a masterpiece

Cant wait for Clerks III documentary

Strike Back and Clerks 2 are tied for the best of these movies

Loved both movies!!! Would love to see a clerks 3!!!

I love to watch this because I live near the Buena Park set. I didn't realize at first but it was an old Burger King that I used to eat at.

This movie was such an amazing mature yet potty mouth extension to the classic. I was sorry to hear Clerks 3 would never happen, but this is a MASTERPIECE of a send off to the series! I can watch the last 20 minutes of the movie over and over and tear up. (including the donkey scene lmao)

Awesome! thanks for posting this !

14:32 did anyone else notice how similar this is to the actual scene in the movie in the jail cell

That's *beautiful,* man.

Can't wait til Clerks 3.

Kevin's gift is to blend comedic and serious moments seamlessly

If Kevin ever decided to become a Monk, he has a head start

God this is just such a perfect dose of nostalgia.

I just met Kevin Smith last week off chance! It was great!

Rosario is GORGEOUS

I appreciate this movie a lot more now.

"That's beautiful, man..."

Jason's first appearance talking to the camera, damn he's looking healthy again

I think watching Kevin Smith movies was my "movie phase" phase. This doc brings so much back.

This was a great little doc and i was thinking the same exact thing with the end scene. Was like woah holy shit out of no where this emotional scene and smiled at the end of it

That was awesome Kevin.

Goddam, Rosario Dawson was such a blessing to this movie. She looks like a fun person to be around.

This is great, I've dropped a like and subscribed

Picked up clerk's back in the day when Kroger's still rented out videos had no clue what it was about but later that night I sat in front of a big screen tv amazed and even tingling a bit in my gential area from watching clerk's

Clerks 2 was really well done. Just as much fun as Clerks. Adorable, filthy, adorably filthy, and sincere.

Every time he says he's not going to do it again he ends up doing it again that's what I love about Kevin who else can't wait for Jay and Silent Bob reboot

Kevin Smith is the man! Smodcast for life!

I love Kevin so much I'd love to meet him one day and talk for a while about film and life

I think Dogma is the overall best of his movies, but I rewatch Clerks II the most.

That’s beautiful man

Beautiful, man

@57:17 Randell in jail with Dante. I have to say, Jeff Anderson was a world class actor here. It's a brilliant scene, the whole film hinges on this scene, and would have failed if Jeff didn't make you believe it. That's called acting. Yea, I was fucking shocked too!

i loved Clerks 2. but clerks 3 will probably never happen... probably... Side note.. it's been 11 years since clerks 2 came out. Now i feel fucking old... I miss being 21.. :(

I'm surprised they thought Rosario wouldn't do it, she did KIDS afterall. She's a badass and perfect for the part. I loved Clerks 2. Saw it the day it came out

Honestly watching this has given me a lot of respect for Kevin Smith.

Rosario Dawson on 'the roof is one of the sexiest things I've ever seen.

LMAO!!! I love me some Scotty Mose he is so awkward, but I can see how talented and funny he is Im so happy Scott and Kev made smodcast because hearing them joke around its excellent. I just wish Kev wasn't always so self deprecating all the time he's really talented.

Hey, Rosario did Kids and Sidewalks of New York - I’d have no doubts about her being interested in this.

Mosier seems to think Jersey Girl was their first time working with big name celebrities... Yeah, those scenes with no names like Chris Rock, Alan Rickman, George Carlon, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in Dogma nailed that idea...
