- Joblo.com is running a feature on the ten funniest cameos ever — Jay and Silent Bob in Scream 3 and “Everybody†in JSBSB take 4th and 3rd place respectively.
As Craven’s final chapter slowly but surely slips into the giant pile of 90s horror mediocrity, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes show up for one last poke at pop culture. “Holy shit, Silent Bob, it’s that TV news-chick Connie f*cking Chung! Hey Connie, how’s Maury?â€
3. Everybody in JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK
I know I need to get off Smith’s nut-sack but the use of cameos in this film are amazing. Will Ferrell, Jud Nelson, Carrie Fisher, Seann William Scott, John Stewart, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock, Wes Craven, Shannon Doherty, Jason Biggs, James Van Der Beek, Joey Lauren Adams, Matt Damon, and Mark Hamill just to name a few. Both Ben Affleck and Jason Lee cameo twice as two different characters. They’re all highlighted by the GOOD WILL HUNTING 2 scene and of course, George Carlin teaching them how to hitchhike (pictured above).
They also include a couple of great pics including Jay and Bob from Degrassi and George Carlin following the rules of the Book. Check it all out.
- And speaking of Degrassi, Kevin gets a mention in the Wall Street Journal in a Degrassi article touting the program’s appeal to adults as well as teens:
One adult fan of “Degrassi†is Kevin Smith, creator of the movie “Clerks,†who will guest star, at his own request, in the coming season. Mr. Smith will play a director who picks Degrassi High as the setting for his new movie, titled “Jay and Silent Bob Go Canadian, Eh?†(Summer season begins Friday, 8 p.m. EDT.)
- Reality TV junkies might have noticed the great John Pierson giving the new Real World cast their job assignments in this week’s episode (airing all the time, every day). The crew is set up in Austin this year and features a blonde nudeness-prone nymphomaniac. Okay, guys, NOW you wanna watch? We do assume it was the first and only appearance for Pierson in the season.
- You can find more info on obtaining the DVD for “Double Dareâ€, the stuntwoman documentary that we mentioned has some behind the scenes J&SBSB stuff, HERE. You might be interested to know that the stuntwoman in those scenes also doubled Uma Thurman in “Kill Billâ€.
- Today’s “Word of the Day†on iwon.com seems to have been written by a fan:
Definition: silent, not talkative
Example: The clerk’s TACITURN nature earned him the nickname “Silent Bob.â€
