Quotes:
Banky: I feel a hate crime coming on.
Hooper: For years in this industry, whenever an African American character, hero or villain, was introduced - usually by white artists and writers - they got slapped with racist names that singled them out as Negroes. Now, my book, "White-Hating Coon," don't have none of that bullshit. The hero's name is Maleekwa, and he's descended from the black tribe that established the first society on the planet, while all you European... Holden: Ah, that's a bunch of horse-shit! Lando Calrissian was a black guy. He got to fly the Millenium Falcon! Hooper: Who said that? Holden: I did! Lando Calrissian is a strong role-model for the African-American community! Hooper: Man, f**k Lando Calrissian! Uncle-Tom nigger!
Banky: All every woman really wants, be it mother, senator, nun, is some serious deep-dickin'.
Silent Bob: But, by the time I figured this all out, it was too late; she moved on. And all I had to show for it was some foolish pride which then gave way to regret. She was the girl. I know that now. But, I pushed her away. So I've spent everyday since then chasing Amy. So to speak.
Holden: So, uh, what do you wanna do tonight? Banky: Mmm, get a pizza, watch "Degrassi Jr. High." Holden: You got a weird thing for Canadian melodrama. Banky: I got a weird thing for girls who say "aboot."
Trivia:
During the scene where Holden and Alyssa are playing darts, men are going in and out of the women's bathroom and women are going in and out of the men's bathroom.
Kevin smith wrote the three issues of the "Bluntman and Chronic" comic book that Holden and Banky produce within the film, and released them through Image Comics. Inside each issue, Smith credited: Written by Banky Edwards and Holden McNeil, Pencils by Holden McNeil, Inks by Banky Edwards.
Holden says he attended a school named Hudson - which is the real school that Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes both graduated from.
This is the third film in Kevin Smith's intricately interconnected View Askewniverse series (the others being Clerks., Mallrats, Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back). The movies are all linked by characters, themes and events and each contains numerous references to the others.
Kevin Smith wrote the script to Chasing Amy inspired by his experience with then girlfriend Joey Lauren Adams.
Credits Fun:
After the end credits, Jay and Silent Bob have a final exchange.
Jay and Silent Bob will return in Dogma (we promise)
To all the critics that didn't like our last movie: "All is forgiven."

MATT SEITZ - For the one review that made a difference.
