Quotes:

  • [Brodie picks up a controller and continues a paused video game.]
    Renee: What are you doing? You promised me breakfast.
    Brodie: Breakfast, shmreakfast. Look at the score, for Christ's sake. It's only the second period and I'm up 12 to 2. Breakfasts come and go, Renee, but Hartford, "the Whale," they only beat Vancouver once, maybe twice in a lifetime.
     
  • Silent Bob: Adventure, excitement... a Jedi craves not these things.
     
  • Brodie: He must be halfway to Buy Me Toys by now.
     
  • Brodie: Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent--I don't care which one--but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator!
     
  • Brodie: Cookie stand's not part of the food court.
    T.S.: Sure it is.
    Brodie: The food court is downstairs the cookie stand is upstairs it's not like we're talking quantum physics here!
    T.S.: The cookie stand is an eatery, an eatery is part of the food court.
    Brodie: Bullshit! Eateries that operate within the designated square downstairs qualify as food court, anything operating outside the said designated square is considered an autonomous unit for mid-mall snacking.
     

Trivia:

  • Stan Lee can be seen looking to his left or right repeatedly while talking with Brodie. This is so he can see his cue cards - not being a trained actor, memorizing lines was very difficult. Jeremy London forgot his lines repeatedly.
     
  • After failing to see the sailboat image, Ethan Suplee's character wanders over to the stage, and gives a frustrated wail while holding on to a frame. This is a parody of a scene in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, in which Chewbacca omits the same cry while holding on to a support strut.
     
  • Brodie's comic book collection seen in the movie was actually director Kevin Smith's collection (which has grown considerably since). The collection is what Smith was able to purchase back after selling his original collection to finance production of Clerks.
     
  • The background music when T.S. and Hamilton are waiting for the elevator is the same as in the elevator in The Blues Brothers, The Girl From Impanema.
     
  • The MagicEye "sailboat" picture is actually a 4 x 3 matrix of geometric shapes consisting of a cross, a circle, a diamond, a star, 4 segmented circles and 4 cones.
     

Credits Fun:

  • Jay and Silent Bob will return in Chasing Amy
     
  • Thanks to Mom and Dad for having sex all those years ago
