Jay and Silent Bob's Super Groovy Cartoon Movie

The highlight of Kevin Smith's Comedy Writing has to be Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back. This movie split my sides from beginning to end.

This latest effort, looks like a hash and rehash.

Back in 2001, pot humor was fresh and edgy. Nowadays with 26 states having some legal medical pot on their books and a rapid number of states getting ready to legalize, it's so ho hum now. Time for a new shtick.

The villains. Ugh. The villains. Puerile stuff. Somebody needs to explain to Kevin Smith that he's a bit over-fixated on Dick jokes & cum humor. He comes off as a 12 year old who just discovered his first wet dream.

There are too many in-jokes that are obviously derived from his podcasts to be of much entertainment value to me. Honestly, I tried listening to a couple of the podcasts and found them to be, voilà, a lot of Dick jokes and pot humor. It gets old fast, as did this cartoon.

The animation quality is what you'd expect for $69K.

So unless you're a Jay and silent Bob cinephile. I wouldn't recommend this unless you like Neil Gaiman and him saying p***y

I've been hoping for an animated movie from Kevin Smith since the Clerks cartoon first aired. This isn't it. It looks like garbage, seriously, if it was a 2-5 minute youtube video it would be acceptable to be this badly animated. Kevin needs to get over his "I smoke weed now so everything is the best thing ever" bullshit and start writing things that are actually funny again. He has consistently gotten worse over the last few years. Everything is dumbed down even more than it was. Jay used to be the stand-out idiot in his movies, now everyone is just as dumb. Dude seems to be comfortable being a lazy writer and recycling the same gags over and over again but the guy who made Clerks wouldn't respect the current hack using the name Kevin Smith.

I mean, it's alright. I got a few chuckles out of it. The story itself was good, the cast was great. The art style was weird it looked like something out of Mad Magazine or the Mad TV show from Cartoon Network. The movie was EXTREMELY graphic, and I don't just mean for violence, I mean the other thing too. I guess they figured they could get away with more since they were animated instead of live action, but it was just kinda gross. I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either. This was definitely the weakest thing to come out of the View Askewniverse.

Disappointingly stupid. I expected BAD but this was worse than that. Full of forced jokes as well as cheap animation
