Probably my favorite View Askew movie overall. A big reason why I got into My Name is Earl was the chance to see Jason Lee and Ethan Suplee pal around again.

Probably my favorite movie ever. It was so chill, zany, and has some of my favorite lines. IS it the best movie ever? Doubtful. But is it MY favorite? Sure is. I bet watching it now would be a blast from the past.

I watch it fairly often (yearly or so). Still love it. I get very nostalgic over the vibes of mall rats and clerks

Love it. Im a pretty big overall Kevin Smith fan and frankly that original Jersey Trilogy hits the hardest for me. What really makes it great is Jason Lee. He absolutely shines in Kevins movies. Mallrats will forever have a special place in my memories.

At first way back when it came out I didnt even realize it was a Kevin Smith movie. I was in the Navy and we were on a 6 month deployment. They would play movies on my ship on closed circuit tv from a room and they would be on everyones tv in their berthing area where they slept. So I start watching this movie one day and its immediately hilarious and get to the mall and Im like holy shit its Jay and Silent Bob not realizing Kevin made the movie until then.

So yeah became a big fan and then in 97 when Chasing Amy came out I was in port so was able to go to the theatre and watch that release. I will always specifically remember that weekend because it released on April 4th and my birthday is April 3rd so that was my birthday celebration weekend of my 21st birthday. Fun times.

Very fun movie. The commentary track is hilarious too.

Some of the deleted scenes are pretty funny as well, as you'll find out why Svenning calls Brodie "my neighbor" in the one scene.

Honestly fair tbh

I always found the representation of Joey Lauren Adam's character to be a bit odd even when I first saw it.

Yeah, I haven't seen Chasing Amy in years but even back then it just felt...off. I guess it works from the lens of a really, really dumb guy trying and failing to understand gay culture. IIRC Jason Lee was, once again, the best part of the movie: he was painted as the bitter jealous third wheel but ended up having his head screwed on tighter than everyone else.

"And Jedi's the most insulting installment. Because Vader's beautiful black visage is sullied when he pulls off his mask to reveal a feeble, crusty, old white man! They tryin' to tell us that deep inside we all wants to be white!"

Queue the best Jason Lee line: "Well isn't that true?"

I lost it.

Im not going to even try to pretend I know lesbian culture and Im going to just cheat and copy/paste from wiki but this is info I have known from over the years about Chasing Amy.

Kevin Smith has said over the years that Chasing Amy was inspired by his brother being gay, his relationship with Joey Lauren Adams, whom he was dating during the making of the film, and a crush his producing partner Scott Mosier had on lesbian filmmaker Guinevere Turner.[4][5] Turner met Mosier and Smith at the 1994 Sundance Film Festival where their respective films, Go Fish and Clerks, had premiered. After the festival, Mosier and Turner kept in touch, with Mosier developing unrequited feelings for Turner. Smith told Mosier to channel his heartbreak into a movie about a guy who falls in love with a lesbian, but the filmmakers felt it was too lean a story, so Smith added his own experiences into the character of Holden.[4] Smith wrote, "The character of Holden is the closest to me I've ever written (casting Ben was aesthetically wishful thinking perhaps)."[3] Smith, who said he "didn't really know that much about gay culture, and specifically lesbian culture", had Turner look at drafts of the script for her input.[4] Turner helped find the location for the bar scenes, which were shot at the since-closed Meow Mix in downtown Manhattan.[4]

So he has outright admitted he didnt know about lesbian culture and leaned on a lesbian he knew and whenever you are basically leaning on one persons opinion they arent going to be a great representation of everyone. I mean he doesnt even really know gay culture despite his brother being gay but his brother always talked about how he wasnt represented on screen and Kevin always thought that was sad which was kind of the basis for Chasing Amy being made.

I think he went into it with earnest and was trying to give the community something they could enjoy. He obviously missed with some but Ive seen examples over the years from people it really resonated with.
