Funny, I have a horrible memory for things like that, I had to look it up. I haven’t seen Clerks in a long long time. Guess that answers my question.

> This thread reminded me that I’ve never seen Clerks 2. So I acquired it and am 2/3 of the way through it (after having re-watched Clerks this afternoon for the first time in 10 years).So far, Clerks 2 sucks _ass_. Not only for the reasons **msmith537** gives, but also because it is stilted, obvious, unoriginal and the jokes fall flat. Also, what’s happened to Jeff Anderson? In the first one he gave a pretty fluid performance with a lot of charisma; in this one his delivery is really fucked up. Did he turn to drink or something?

I wanted to see _Clerks 2_. I didn’t get very far into it, though; the channel that I recorded it off of had made some pretty obnoxious cuts, and I wondered what else I would be missing, so decided I should forget about it and wait for a better chance.
