I didn't laugh once...

I don't think I ever put a movie on were I was so keen to laugh, I saw the reviews and the rating on imdb, and straight away went "this will be awesome"

I really tried so fu*king hard to like it but I just sat there and watched it had a little giggle at a couple of parts but most the time I felt like falling asleep...

Do you have to be smoking pot to find it funny or what? I am missing something for sure cause this does not make sense...
I can like almost all movies for a reason, I always go in open hearted and try and understand why the director made the movie and its strong suits but I really just don't understand haha..

And It's the same for allot of his other movies ( dogma, clerks 2, cop out)haven't seen chasing Amy or mallrats yet. I didn't mind Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and red state was great (not a comedy, but still great)

Safe to say I'm not a fan, But I want to be.

So..... Am I missing something or maybe I will just never get it.

I always get a laugh out of when Dante finds out his girlfriend she screwed a dead man.

ILOVED IT THE FIRST TIME I SAW...I LOVED IT THE 100TH TIME I SAW IT...ONE OF MY FIVE ALL TIME FAVORITE FLICKS.

I just got done watch this after probably 10 years or so of not seeing it. I think this would have been a lot more boring if it wasn't for Kevin Smith crud, but witty Dialog. A movie about 2 guys setting around in a convenience store should be totally boring, but somehow its not. Maybe ill watch Mallrats next. That got a Stan Lee Cameo. All this Kevin Smith hate and kind of push me into a marathon.

I agree, this sucked...It's gotta be one of the most overrated movies ever!

"Do you have to be smoking pot to find it funny or what?"

Not even continuous bong rips can make this pile of doo-doo even slightly amusing...
