Snoochie Boochies! While Kevin Smith announced last year that a third Jay and Silent Bob movie would be hitting screens, he provided some more details on the threequel this weekend, telling his audience at the San Diego Comic-Con that the movie will officially be titled Store Wars.

While little was revealed, Smith did say that the next movie will find Jay and Silent Bob opening a weed dispensary — presumably in Smith’s home state of New Jersey — and finding some stiff competition with a rival joint.

...

Judging by what we know of the plot so far, Jay and Silent Bob: Store Wars does seem like it would try to ground the characters (played by Jason Mewes and Smith himself) in a territory and plot they are more comfortable in. The weed biz has been an endeavor of the duo’s the past couple times around, so centering around that – and not, say, a cross-country trek – should work. It seems that Smith learned his lesson with Clerks III as well, as he says he won’t be killing off any characters this time around…

It was absolute trash.

Seemed like some weird attempt to try and force his kid into a movie.

When it came out, i kinda liked it. But i think i mainly liked it because i just assumed they are gonna make a third one that would be better because they learned some things and connect the dots in between what makes the first one work and the second one didn't. But yeah, it's not good and i assume the third one is gonna be even worse.

What always makes me kinda mad is that Kevin is still riding the wave of the first clerks, while also CONSTANTLY telling everyone that he doesn't understand why so many people like that "bad" movie.
