YMMV / Jay and Silent Bob Reboot

• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment:
  • The KKK scene, where somehow Milly and her friends got captured by them and are held hostage and Jay and Silent Bob have to help them (complete with Silent Bob doing a whole monologue from Glengarry Glen Ross) before they all split and its never mentioned again.
  • Several of the cameos count as this, though the scene with Matt Damon as Loki stands out, as it serves no purpose other than to explain what happened to him at the end of that movie.
  • The Clerks panel has two in one:
    • Jay and Silent Bob turning black and white and freaking out.
    • Somehow, there a second Walt Flanagan (with his card even saying "Walt Flanagan 2").

• Critical Dissonance: The film had a mixed critical reception, with many reviewers criticizing it for its overly pandering nature. Fans, however, loved it for the same reason.
• Genius Bonus: Soapy's actress Treshelle Edmonds was asked what her ASL t-shirt was signing out on Twitter and she answered it was signing "Shut the fuck up".
• He Really Can Act: Jason Mewes gives a genuinely emotional performance as Jay in some scenes, particularly the scene at Chronic-Con where he leaves Milly.
• One-Scene Wonder: Most of the cameos, though Justin Long as Brandon St. Randy, Kate Micucci as the knife-wielding Mooby's employee, and Molly Shannon as the Deadpan Snarker airline employee stand out.
• Pandering to the Base: Even more so than the first movie. This movie is absolutely brimming with in-jokes and references and to past Askewniverse films as well as several of Kevin Smith's other works.
• Unexpected Character: Seeing as Zack and Miri Make a Porno was explicitly not part of The View Askewniverse, nobody was expecting Brandon to show up.
