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 honestly rate "Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back" as one of the funniest movies. But this... man I dunno what's up. It's just not funny. None of the plot, gags, situations or lines are funny, Nothing is original. I believe it takes genius to make stupid things funny. It's really lacking here. But enough on the content. What about the animation? Well it's awful. Badly drawn, no style. Not in a funny way like South Park. Badly animated, but not in an aesthetic way like TV-anime where frames are dropped and motion is reduced to the bare minimum using ingenious methods. No, it's just really poor. I like Kevin Smith's movies up to around Clerks 2 then it all went to crap. I actually think Jay and Silent Bob hold their own as characters, while Blunt Man and Chronic is just an empty void of infantile ideas with no backbone.

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

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.
