Not sure who's seen this but I wasn't aware it existed until today. It's a short featuring Randall and Dante, produced I believe for the Tonight Show. But don't let that deter you ... it's very funny. Of course, that's the longest I've seen Randall go without swearing, but it's still very funny.

enjoy

Wow.... 6 minutes of setup for one joke... and the rest read like a BS PCE post.

but for me the fun was in the journey, not the destination.

kevin smith wrote and directed it, also according to imdb.com

So can I ask a serioous question?

Is this new material to you guys?

Or is it just good cause it's good? I mean I got no problem with people thinking that whole thing is funny, but you do know that it's really REALLY old material, right?

read the first line of the first post and you have my answer.

and my question to you: who cares if 'this is new material to you guys?' what difference does that make?

what does something being really REALLY old have to do with it being funny or not?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

I really, honestly wasn't trying to bash. I think it's comical as well. I was just asking, that's all.

And I wasn't talking about that particular Kevin Smith rendition of the flying car bit being very old material. I was talking about the whole flying car bit itself. I mean that's been around by a few different comics for years. For all I know that Kevin Smith version could be brand new. I had never seen it before, either.

well, I didn't feel attacked ... so we're cool. :)


but yeah, it doesn't smack of originality. It made me chuckle, Clerks is a topic on people's minds right 'bout now ... so, I posted it. anything beyond that is more thought than I want to give it right now.
