Line 21:
{{quote|"Don't fuck with the Jedi master, son."}}
* [[Adam Westing]]: [[Ben Affleck]], [[Mark Hamill]] and a whole slew of other Hollywood personalities poke fun at themselves.
* [[
* [[Age Cut]]: The opening sequence.
* [[Animals Lack Attributes]]: Averted hard in one deleted scene spoofing [[Scooby Doo]]
Line 36:
** One that might have slipped under your radar: the pizza delivery boy who gets it on with the hot female thieves was [[wikipedia:Joe Quesada|Joe Quesada]].
*** Gee, I guess now we know why he thinks being stuck in an adolescent phase of life and not having a wife would be so much more interesting.
* [[Cat Fight]]: played for perfect laughs after building up both of the film's [[Action Girl|Action Girls]] to a ridiculous degree--it degrades for a moment into slaps and hair pulling--to [[Fan Service|Jay and Silent Bob's delight]].
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: Jay is a walking CFB, but other characters get to join in on the fun, too; the word is said 248 times over the course of the film.
{{quote|''"Mother-mother-fuck, mother-mother-fuck-fuck, motherfuck, motherfuck, noich-noich-noich..."''}}
Line 60:
** ''[[Chasing Amy]]'':
{{quote|'''Holden:''' It's times like these I really miss dating a lesbian.}}
*** And later, on the set of the ''Bluntman and Chronic'' film, the director tells Banky he's a tracer, not an inker, and that ''[[Dramatic Irony|no one ever had the heart to tell him.]]''
*** The first few bars of the ''[[Chasing Amy]]'' theme (Dave Pirner's "Tube Of Wonderful") plays when Jay and Silent Bob go visit Holden.
*** Holden's first words to Jay and Silent Bob when they show up mirrors Jay's line to Holden at the beginning of his scene in ''[[Chasing Amy]]'': "Look at these morose motherfuckers right here. Looks like someone took a shit in their cereal." (This even receives a [[Lampshade Hanging]] in a deleted scene; Holden says he's been waiting years to deliver the line.)
** ''[[Dogma]]'':
{{quote|'''Jay:''' The whole fucking world's against us, man, swear to God!}}
Line 77:
* [[Description Cut]]: Justice claims that Jay "has manners", whereupon we immediately see Jay screaming obscenities at passersby.
{{quote|"Yo baby, you ever had your asshole licked by a fat man in an overcoat!?"}}
* [[Discontinuity Nod]]: Jason Biggs, having not read the script, mistakenly refers to Jay as "Ray". When ABC tried to turn ''[[Clerks]]'' into a TV show in the 1990s, Smith tried to prevent it from happening by exploiting his ownership of Jay (Silent Bob was not in the pilot.) ABC responded by changing the character's name to Ray. (The pilot in question was ''not'' for ''[[Clerks the Animated Series]]'', which--unlike this pilot--was animated, and kept the cast of the original film as well as Smith and Mosier on board.)
* [[Doing It for the Art|Doing It For The Fans]]: Kevin Smith has gone on record saying the movie is a love letter to the fans after all the years of support for his work, which is why he tried to work in as many references to all previous films he could and centered the entire movie around [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Jay and Silent Bob]] in the first place.
* [[Dramatic Irony]]: Two instances of the comedic variety. In one scene, the titular duo are posing as extras on a movie set and receive these instructions from the director...
Line 104:
{{quote|'''Holden:''' The Internet is a communication tool used the world over where people can come together to bitch about movies and share pornography with one another. }}
** Critic [[Roger Ebert]] comments "This is a much more sophisticated idea of the Net than we find in high-tech cyberthrillers, where the Net is a place that makes your computer beep a lot."
* [[Internet Tough Guy]]: Subverted in that Jay and Bob have never been on the internet before, and have no concept of [[GIFT]] or what a [[Troll]] is and take the trash talk seriously. They also subvert the hell out of this trope by {{spoiler|actually going around the country to beat the crap out of all the bratty kids who insulted them.}}
* [[Jurisdiction Friction]]: Willenholly is constantly barging onto major crime scenes shouting about how he has the jurisdiction because animals were somehow involved, which falls under his remit as a Federal Wildlife Marshall. This causes resentment from the local authorities... less because of the jurisdiction tension than the fact that he's a complete idiot.
* [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo]]: Those nice people and their dog in the big green van [[Scooby Doo|look awfully familiar...]]
Line 121:
* [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]: After the van explodes and Jay cries out JUSTICE to the sky, the chanting says "Justice is dead! Or so Jay thinks!"
* [[Ping-Pong Naivete]]: In ''Strike Back'', Jay is confounded by the fact that you need a ticket to ride a cross-country Greyhound bus. But at the end of ''[[Chasing Amy]]'' (chronologically earlier), they take a bus to Illinois, and Jay makes direct reference to the tickets in Silent Bob's pocket. Must have been the weed.
** This was more of a bad cut (for time) than anything. The original scene would have had Jay and Silent Bob getting on the bus and riding in it for awhile before it's discovered that they're in the bathroom smoking a blunt (which is a reference to the Chasing Dogma comic book). The bus drops them off on the side of the road, where they meet George Carlin's hitchhiker character.
* [[Pizza Boy Special Delivery]]
* [[Production Posse]]: Since this was going to be the last View Askewniverse film, Kevin Smith got pretty much everyone who had even a minor role in the previous films to come back and at least make a cameo.
Line 129:
** Unintentionally referential, seeing the movie Will Ferrell stars in later on...
*** Whether or not this is [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] or a [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]] depends on each viewer.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: Think about it: who doesn't this movie try to offend?
* [[Running Gag]]: "Boo Boo Kitty Fuck," the C.L.I.T, people calling Jay a little kid, Jay telling people Silent Bob will suck their dicks.
* [[Sir Swearsalot]]: Baby Jay's first word is "fuck", if that tells you anything about the kind of person he grows up into.
Line 159:
* [[Weird Trade Union]]: The Drug Dealers local.
* [[Who Would Want to Watch Us?]]: In addition to the page quote, Alyssa doesn't think anyone would be interested in a movie version of ''[[Chasing Amy]]''.
* [[
* [[You Fail Geography Forever]]: The editing of the movie suggests that Jay and Silent Bob hike from Boulder, CO to Utah with a stolen monkey. This is a distance of over 300 miles, over the Rocky Mountains.
