@@mattbrendlenThat’s also not what he said the quote is literally “there’s a million fine lookin women in the world, dude but not all of them bring you lasagna at work, most just cheat on you” meaning a relationship built on love trust connection and giving your everything for the other is much better than frantically chasing someone you like out of pure attraction/difficulty. You’ll usually get burned with the latter until you really see what you got
@@NaanosVEVO Okay... but does that mean if you're dating a fine lookin' woman who ISN'T bringing you lasagna at work, she's probably cheating on you? He's still implying that most women are going to cheat on you... I mean... you do realize that he's saying the line to a guy who happens to literally be cheating on his girlfriend... Like... did anyone ever stop and examine the irony of this "deep" message... or is it that we all saw this movie when we were young, and have those rose-tinted glasses on? "Oh wow... the silent character said a thing... that must mean it's poignant and philosophical!"
@@mattbrendlen I’m not arguing a 30 year old movie with you because you’re bent out of shape over 1 line from it. The line is literally there and I already explained what it means. If you’re going to keep trying to make it something it’s not and fulfill you’re “I’m such a male feminist” diatribe, keep looking stupid and good luck with your life
I watched this when I was probably 15, now I'm 30, but I never forgot his saying and I've thought about it with girlfriends and jobs etc, "what's a good plate with nothing on it". Dante has so much indecision the whole movie and in the end these two "low life's" come in with so much clarity and wisdom....love it!
@@blackandgold676 I think either works. What's the point in a pretty plate with no food? What good is any plate with nothing on it? Dante wants a dirty world without getting his hands dirty. He wants his plate clean and nice but doesn't want to clean it himself.
this movie had a profound effect on me when i was a teenager. i was angsty and lonely and frustrated with everything. i watched this movie so much that i killed the vhs tape of the film that i had. this really was an iconic film.
I remember renting this movie from our local video store in a small town and I watched it and loved it. Then when I tried to show it to my friends they were all pissy about it being black and white. However, they watched it and they fucking loved it.
For real. I think this scene, the one moment in Dogma when Jay suggests they ask the cardinal to shut down the church; and in Clerks 2 when Jay is willing to give Dante and Randall the money for the Quickstop are the few times he's actually smart.
Unlike in Chasing Amy were Jay says lots of shit while Silent Bob makes his iconic monologue of wisdom, in here Jay is actually making some sense but Silent Bob is the one who the punch line in such a powerful way. Gret movies, both of them.
You know, there's a million fine-lookin women in the world, dude but they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on ya. Words of a true genius.
He did mess it up. In the director's commentary on the tenth anniversary DVD Smith says that Mewes was sleeping all the time while they were filming. He had to keep waking Mewes up to say his lines. You may have noticed that he looks high but he's actually just been woken up for this scene.
@@Cinemaphile7783 It's true but it's the wrong movie. Jason did forget his lines a lot in Clerks but it was Dogma where he was falling asleep. In fact, you can see it in the scene where Azrael has the gang held up in the bar. Jay is clearly asleep in some shots.
Silent Bob had the best line but Jay also could see who was the better woman. Funny how Dante looked down on them for being drug dealers but they ended up showing a higher morality than him.
And both underrated. Office space showed how it is to be at a job you hate and stuck in a life you want to change but just stick in it cause that's what supposedly your supposed to do. Be a work drone til you die because ppl tell you it's better than nothing or just be happy with what you got
As poignant as Silent Bob's words are, there's something so cathartic about Jay just tearing into Dante as he leaves. Randall gives Dante grief but it isn't until they have a physical fight that Randall really pops off at him. Until then, Dante is just allowed to whine incessantly to everyone around him because it's what he does, he's an ungrateful and insecure miseryguts. Then, outta nowhere, Jay lays some good points on him and before Dante can really process it but after he's visibly written Jay off, he just blasts him and dips. Clerks is awesome.
The real catharsis comes from the fact that this supposed "loser" that just wants to get high all the time can see how lucky Dante is to have a girlfriend as great as Veronica. He sees all the good things she does for him, even if he acknowledges his ex is pretty hot. He understands the value of a good girlfriend, and not someone that is just using you for free drugs or just to toy with you like Caitlyn was with Dante. Then he just tears into and insults him for being such a jackass to the one good thing in his life. Such a great scene indeed.
Man this movie is so good and it really shines through when Dante realizes Veronica really loves him but it’s literally too late because she’s had enough. Tough ending but with good lessons taught
Silent Bob speaks facts, I'm lucky to have my girl now. I mess up with an alcohol addiction, she should've left me a bunch of times but she comes to my place and brings me a home cooked meal to sober me up and helps me out. Im in outpatient rehab with her on my side. We actually watched Jay and Silent Bob Reboot together and just remembered the times we first saw this and my girl is the type to bring me a home cooked meal. Im ready to get my shit together and marry her real talk. And I'm a Jersey boy so this hits all kinds of home. Wish me luck yall I seriously don't wanna lose this! I still have time, and to the young ones still in the late teens and carefree 20s attitude...trust me when you hit your 30s life just hits different.
I bought a copy of this on DVD and it was rated R18 and had an explicit sexual content warning... I was at my parent's place at the time. My mum saw it and asked me if they are "boy clerks or girl clerks"... God bless her, she thought it was porn.
Let’s face it, Dante just made a personal value judgment that in spite of the fact that Veronica cared for him and took care of him in so many ways, he would rather run after the “hotter” Caitlin. That’s what they were berating him for, and he was just too much of a wuss to admit it.
This scene is where Silent Bob talks. Silent Bob does talks, but rarely and when he talks it's usually does with advice, wisdom and reason. Silent Bob is the smarter and wiser of the duo.
What are you all so impressed about? Fat bastard does that all the time. He thinks cause he doesn't say anything, it will have this huge impact when he does open his fucking mouth.
He should be called one line Bob. He has one spoken line in every jay n sb film. The best was in J and SB strike back - he totally rips Jay a new asshole.
In "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" he talks two times, first time he insults Jay, second time he talks about transferring Bluntman and Chronic to a new medium.
There was an alternative sub culture in the 1990s, and we were into star wars, marvel, comic books and generally being childish and stupid. All Kevin's characters are based on this subculture and what was going on at the time with young people. Hard to believe now, but Marvel and Star Wars just weren't popular in the 1990s. You were only into these things if you were lived an alternative lifestyle. Kevin didn't invent any of this. His movies are just a commentary of what was going on at the time, with some young people.
@Gelos Lives if the only consumers of modern Marvel movies were people who read the comics as children, Disney would not be making billions of dollars.
Absolutely. I certainly was into it. It was a little different now than then. Progressive feminist bs hadn’t hit mainstream and me too wasn’t an issue. Girls slept around back then they just owned it. Didn’t blame men. It was a time to chill. This movie would never happen in these times.
The fact that he looked out for him in jays own way meant alot for the show and all the series. He normally wouldn't do that. And having bob clarify what he means his own special way doubled that. Pretty damn wholesome and great advise.
Jesus after watching this and I worked at a gas station at the time I started calling everyone a cock smoken clerk and I swear I was living what Randal would say and feel about customers it was epic!
In Mallrats Seth Green was on set as an understudy throughout shooting. Thats who the studio brass wanted to play jay. They were basically waiting for him to fuck up.
IKR, in a matter of about a minute and a half, Dante goes from being a "good man" to a "cocksmoking faggot". LOL, I don't know why but I find that hilarious.
I really do prefer these more 'grounded' Jay and Silent Bob as opposed to the over the top versions. Not to say the other versions aren't fun to watch too, but I knew guys like this growing up, but post-Clerks Jay and Silent Bob are more caricatures.
At the time I thought Jason was an awesome actor able to completely nail the junky role, hindsight added more context to the scene but it's still hilarious. Always loved the sudden bout of insults at the end 😂
“There’s a million fine looking women in the world dude, but they don’t all bring you lasagna at work. Most of them just cheat on ya.” ~Silent Bob Brilliant!
My friend and I were 21. We ate some shrooms and tripped out, and stayed up all night walking around the neighborhood and stuff. When we were walking back up to his house, we saw our reflections in the huge picture window in front. We lookded like Jay and Silent Bob. My long blonde hair was in a beanie hat, i was wearing shorts and some long socks, and I looked like Jay. Mike was wearing a backwards hat and a huge coat, and he looked like Silent Bob. Even the height difference was on point! We marveled over it, thus starting a geeked out laughing fit. I'll never forget that silly night...🍄💫😂
Max Stirner so I Did it in public. As I was getting in my Uber she threw her left overs at me. Both boxes hit the Uber car. The guy was cool and I tipped him good. She later text me and said even if you dump me I’m not going anywhere....this was just last night. Haven’t responded. She text me hi daddy today. I broke up with a beautiful girlfriend of 6 years that brought me lunch and was extremely down for me, for this crazy hot yet crazy girl.
Just watched Clerk. the doc on Kevin Smith it's SO a reflection of my life path attitude in life if I had just chosen film or one of the arts and not mixed it all up in my frantic ADD mindset BUTT anyway he submits a video to his parents like I have many times (as too creepy to discuss arts and rock star like goals to logical Boomers) and I too was accepted into Vancouver film program and didn't go after reading an article with Kevin Smith saying to just make a movie no need for the schooling portion... yet the regret was missed out on 2 years in the "Hollywood" of Canada and potential to meet that "golden key" partner to make history. Oh well NO RAGRETS \m/
OH and really liked how Kevin validated my acronym of POT (product of the times) as he stated how lucky he was making Clerks when he did as if he waited 1-2 more years the internet was booming and he would of been one of hundreds to compete with. Even when I tell people SouthPark was not all genius "meant to be" they're talented and earned it, it's also very much POT too as that little Santa video clip they posted on internet was passed around to many people and ended up at Comedy Central. That was 1996/97 when the internet was just blossoming and the timing PERFECT to get quick exposer. Any year or more later forget it in what's now an oversaturated jungle world of manic postings and only "Likes" or followers at best and no real chance of big success like POT is always a significant factor within life. Especially the very subjective arts/entertainment industry!!!
Gawd, these old Kevin Smith films from the 90s are a gem. My first girlfriend used to get these flicks from the local VCR rental place.... lol, yup, VHS rentals. Remember those? This wasnt a big name Blockbuster either. It was a small, family owned rental place. I remember we watched Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy when they were new and available for rental. Gawd time flies.
Ever since someone told me Jay was reading his lines off a script on the counter, I haven't been able to unsee it. I now pass that curse on to you, the reader of this comment.
You'd think Jay's 180 comes out of nowhere, but it's because he pieces together what Dante was doing. Even a burnout like Jay knows what it's like to be used and decided someone like that ought not be a friend you break bud with. Jay doesn't explain it, he just leaves, and Bob's words enlighten what was wrong with what Dante was doing which resonates with what Jay was saying. Jay may be a drug dealer, but he isn't a two-timer either.
Love the way Jay was being so civil and then just straight up tears Dante apart lmao
I think it’s cause they were done robbing him.
Dante had it coming for acting snarky and judgmental.
“Cocksmoker” 😂😂😂
That was the 90s for you. 100%
Jay stole every scene he was in. Even when he's just hanging out in the background.
YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Bong!
true
I'm pretty sure Jason is whacked in this scene. Hilarious stuff.
Silent Bob's line is so damn true. If a girl likes you and goes out of her way to show it, she's a keeper.
mmm... that's not really what he said, though.
He said "most fine lookin' women just cheat on you"

just turns on him so hard

Also because Jay got fed up with Dante screwing up a good relationship for an ex he just began talking to again.

I can count the number of time's I've wanted to leave a place like this on one hand. Unfortunately I only have two hands.
Dante was so young...
Yeah, lasagna is great, but 36 is too fucking many and I can cook better than anyone I know so..
Just watched Clerk. the doc on Kevin Smith it's SO a reflection of my life path attitude in life if I had just chosen film or one of the arts and not mixed it all up in my frantic ADD mindset BUTT anyway he submits a video to his parents like I have many times (as too creepy to discuss arts and rock star like goals to logical Boomers) and I too was accepted into Vancouver film program and didn't go after reading an article with Kevin Smith saying to just make a movie no need for the schooling portion... yet the regret was missed out on 2 years in the "Hollywood" of Canada and potential to meet that "golden key" partner to make history. Oh well NO RAGRETS \m/
OH and really liked how Kevin validated my acronym of POT (product of the times) as he stated how lucky he was making Clerks when he did as if he waited 1-2 more years the internet was booming and he would of been one of hundreds to compete with. Even when I tell people SouthPark was not all genius "meant to be" they're talented and earned it, it's also very much POT too as that little Santa video clip they posted on internet was passed around to many people and ended up at Comedy Central. That was 1996/97 when the internet was just blossoming and the timing PERFECT to get quick exposer. Any year or more later forget it in what's now an oversaturated jungle world of manic postings and only "Likes" or followers at best and no real chance of big success like POT is always a significant factor within life. Especially the very subjective arts/entertainment industry!!!
So like what Kevin also stated in the Last Blockbuster doc: "We just live in shittier times now." Amen 100%
There are so many guys I know in real life who are just like these 2
I know these guys in real life.
Gawd, these old Kevin Smith films from the 90s are a gem. My first girlfriend used to get these flicks from the local VCR rental place.... lol, yup, VHS rentals. Remember those? This wasnt a big name Blockbuster either. It was a small, family owned rental place. I remember we watched Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy when they were new and available for rental. Gawd time flies.
Ever since someone told me Jay was reading his lines off a script on the counter, I haven't been able to unsee it.
I now pass that curse on to you, the reader of this comment.
When Silent Bob gives you advice, shut the eff up and listen.
You'd think Jay's 180 comes out of nowhere, but it's because he pieces together what Dante was doing. Even a burnout like Jay knows what it's like to be used and decided someone like that ought not be a friend you break bud with. Jay doesn't explain it, he just leaves, and Bob's words enlighten what was wrong with what Dante was doing which resonates with what Jay was saying. Jay may be a drug dealer, but he isn't a two-timer either.
"We get off at the same time everyday" lmao 😆 yeah, when the store closes he's done selling drugs there for the night
Man of very few words but the ones he does say are so important.
Silent Bob's words of wisdom.
Kevin’s line as Silent Bob in that scene, has stayed in my F@$king mind since the first viewing...
The instant realization when silent Bob days two sentences 😂
Jay and Silent Bob are 🐐
Love Jay's voice. High-larious 😅😂
Silent Bob's expressions are priceless
Let's get the fuck outta this fuckin' jib joint...
$1.95 for a pack of cigs... Damn.
A pack of 25s in Australia is about $40 now.
Damn!
Damnnn
one of my favourite movies by Kevin smith
It's a shame Kevin doesn't retain the rights to these movies.
Classic words of wisdom
Maybe something like a good plate with nothing on it is nice to look at but a regular plate with a home cooked meal on it will cure your hunger pains.
He really said “un-loosen the nuts” 😂
Silent bob a man of few words
So great
This scene breaks the 180-degree rule.
This movie broke so many rules. Perhaps due 2 Kevs inexperience. That had its own charm. Pure. 🎬
Awesome film
9/10
Jason meews is so cute here
