Backreferencing

Went to see Jay and Silent Bob reboot over the weekend. Easily wins on the "back-references per minute" metric of any film I've ever seen! But still managed to just about reign it in and be some kind of film at the same time. Admittedly a reboot film taking the piss out of reboot films & sequels. I enjoyed it anyway.

Also in true (recent) Kevin Smith style he appeared on the screen at the end to babble on for (what felt like) an extra 20 minutes or so. Man does he love to talk, I suppose the reason his on screen persona is (reasonably) quiet is he'd never finish a film otherwise.

It was also entertaining to see the high percentage of the 90's that was crammed into the cinema, it's not getting many showings so it took some dedication to see it. I've not seen that many faded Nirvana hoodies in one place for a long time :)

I guess I'll see them again at the Clerks 3 screening :P
