ASH's Review:

    The finale of the Viewaskewniverse series of movies finishes with a bong, er, uh, bang. Not even close to the best of the series, but definately a fun trip. Kev rips on everything and everyone with his tongue planted firmly in his cheek. I will admit that this film is NOT for everyone, but if you enjoyed the previous films you should enjoy this one as well.

Quotes:

  • Jay: Affleck, you the bomb in Phantoms. Yo!
     
  • [Silent Bob attempts to get his point across with pantomime.]
    Jay: Why don't you just say it?
    Silent Bob: [grabbing Jay by the collar] The sign on the back of the car said "Critters Of Hollywood", you dumb f**k!
    Jay: [mutters] Say it, don't spray it.
     
  • Jay: Yo lunchbox, hurry it up!
     
  • Jay: What the f**k are you bitches babbling about?
     
  • Sissy: Stealing, boning, blowing s**t up.
     

Trivia:

  • The medical company that Jay and Silent Bob break into is called "Provasic". This is the name of the "Miracle Drug" in The Fugitive which the movie goes on to spoof.
     
  • The phrase "Fuck Jay and Silent Bob. Fuck them up their stupid asses" has gotten so popular that it is used in just about every talkback on Ain't It Cool News (Such as "Fuck Osama bin Laden. Fuck him up his stupid ass.")
     
  • This is the fifth and final film in Kevin Smith's intricately interconnected View Askewniverse series (the first four being Clerks., Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma). The movies are all linked by characters, themes and events and each contains numerous references to the others.
     
  • The movie ends with a freeze frame as a spoof to Purple Rain.
     
  • The film originally received an NC-17 rating. Numerous scenes had to be cut down for an R, including footage of George Carlin and Jay and Silent Bob's arrival to Hollywood.
     

Credits Fun:

  • Credit for Malcom Ingram as a "Mewes Wrangler"
     
  • Like Smith's other films, this one closes with a snippet of Jay's dialogue
     
  • Instead of "Jay and Silent Bob Will Return In...", it now reads, "Jay and Silent Bob have left the building." There is then a clip of Jay saying "Snoogans".
     
  • After the credits, That Woman (God) closes the book on the View Askewniverse and prances away
     
  • No animals were harmed during the making of this film, but some internet snipers got their asses handed to them.

  • No gay people were harmed during the making of this film (however, some were used as test dummies in the creative process).
    Anybody who uses the insults contained in this film on any gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or heterosexual person --real, percieved or imaginary-- is a total dumbass!
     
  • Near the end of the credits, it says: How's our driving? Tell us at www.viewaskew.com.
