Quotes:

Silent Bob: Adventure, excitement... a Jedi craves not these things.
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.
[to T.S.]
Brodie: You're gonna listen to me? To something I said? Hasn't it become abundantly clear during the tenure of our friendship that I don't know shit?
Shannon: I'm gonna fuck you up beyond repair!
Brodie: He must be halfway to Buy Me Toys by now.

Trivia:

Brodie's shirt is the merged faces of three actors that tried out for the part of Brodie and didn't get it.
Silent Bob hanging upside down to put the video tape in the player is a reference to the Ice monster scene in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back.
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.
The original beginning of the movie tested poorly and was replaced by one that was filmed in L.A. The original beginning contained an incident at the Governor's Ball (the one mentioned by the TV execs).
Seth Green was on call, ready at any moment to fly to Michigan so he could replace Jason Mewes as Jay.
