Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes are hitting the road with their new animated film, JAY & SILENT BOB'S SUPER GROOVY CARTOON MOVIE - which blazes across America in a series of one-night-only shows starting April 20, 2013 in Atlanta at the Center Stage Theater. The legendary best buds from Jersey are back to dispense weed and wisdom in cartoon form and audiences will have the opportunity to watch the new movie and stick around for a rip-roaring Q&A afterwards. Cast: Eliza Dushku, Tara Strong, Ralph Garman, Neil Gaiman, Ben Gleib, Jon Lovitz and the podcast stars of Smith's SModcast Network!

Keth Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Looks like CockKnocker is on board. Good enough for me Quote
Reverend Jax Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I wish they'd gone with the animated style from the Clerks animated show.... Oh well.... Quote
Reverend Jax Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 It looks a lot like the hit-or-miss TV Funhouse segments on SNL from like 10 years ago. Regardless, I don't know the running time, but a $69,000 budget for an animated movie is impressive. A par-for-the-course 22-minute animated show costs $200K/episode, and some run as high as $1M/episode. Quote
Iambaytor Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Uggh. I vividly recall flash animation from the early 00s that looked better than that. Quote
Maldron Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 The animation does distract, but the content still had a Chance to win me over. And it didnt. Quote
the division of joy Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Ew. Came in half expecting some Clerks: TAS style goodness. Will be leaving disappointed. Quote
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Wow. Just zero interest in this whatsoever. 1998 me would've been probably interested in seeing it though. Quote
Thrizzle Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 That made me sad. I'm also really distracted by what appear to be upper dentures in live action Jay's mouth. It's...disturbing. Quote

I think you're right. Something is definitely off about his jawline/mouth. I wonder if it was meth? I don't think he looked like that in Zack & Miri. Quote
Keth Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 They are indeed fake teeth. Got new ones after getting clean. Quote
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Apparently it was an addiction to heroin, not meth, that caused his teeth to fall out. Quote
Thrizzle Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Ugh. Make it STOP. I would have preferred him toothless. Quote
Iambaytor Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 It wasn't just heroin, heroin was just what finally took him to rock bottom. He talks about it briefly on the special features on the Clerks DVD, but from what I understand there was no meth involved. I think he preferred downers to uppers. In an case, drug abusers don't tend to prioritize dental hygiene. They look quite horrifying in that picture but it's improved the way he speaks. It's part of why his stunt-casting in Todd and the Book of Pure Evil was a pleasant surprise unlike his stunt casting in pretty much anything else ever. Quote
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 At least we know who could play Jason in the inevitable straight-to-video Internet release movie about his life. And this is as close as I could find to a pic of him toothless: Quote
The NZA Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 Uggh. I vividly recall flash animation from the early 00s that looked better than that. thought this was some ol' hyperbole, then finally watched video Quote
