Does anyone know the name of the song in the trailer?

--In the internet exclusive trailer, the song is a heavy metal version of the cartoon theme. In the theatrical trailer, the song is Jerk It Out by The Caesars.

Judging from this movie, quickstop burned down.

The english wikipedia had a database error earlier today. Luckily it seems to be all fixed again. Garion96 (talk) 23:39, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tiny censorship

Yeah, this probably won't go over too well on a Smith page (I understand), but please, let's keep the curse out of the Siegel quote. This is supposed to be a "professional"-type encyclopedia we're helping make. A tasteful (explitave) should work well, and if anyone asks, pretend I'm quoting J&SBSB on this one, k?

Sorry, Profanity on Wikipedia is not to be censored. --Liface 15:26, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a QUOTE, sir. It can not be changed under any circumstances. If you want to talk about unprofessional behavior, go see Siegel. - Max

SNAP!- Optimus Mike

I see absolutely no reason to taunt the fellow - he raised a perfectly reasonable point which, we decided a long time ago, happened not to be the best way of going about things. -MBlume 06:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, but the notion of a *tiny* bit censorship (an oxymoron), especially on Wikipedia, is absurd. -Max

Trivia section

I'm trimming this, it's getting ludicrous. --Liface 18:02, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added a warning. If you would like to add trivia to the section, please post it here. --Liface 15:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think it might be significant to note, from a cinema history standpoint, that the black and white sequences that begin and end the film could be seen as an homage to The Wizard of Oz, in addition to being a reference to the original Clerks being in black and white. Just one man's opinion. Also, I think your warning is missing a line or symbol or something; it's only visible on the Edit page, and for some reason shunts the first two points under Trivia to the end of the References section. -- Pennyforth 20:23, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well here's the problem with most trivia sections: Editor X comes in and says "blah blah blah is a reference to this" without citing a source. Then other editors come in and add all their references, and we end up with a huge list of stuff that doesn't really pertain to the article. If you look at the Featured film articles, almost none of them have trivia sections. So we're going to need to cut down on our trivia and cite sources for everything. --Liface 23:14, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Does anyone know what actor plays the fat guy with the "07" on the back of his jersey who is dancing in the bathroom? Is it kevin smith?--Cms479 14:37, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, not Kevin Smith. Looks like he's uncredited. --Liface 18:05, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yes that is kevin smith.

Removed from Trivia

I rememved the part in the trvia section that says jay saying "lord?" when becky asks him to play music from the roof is a dogma reference to god being female, I believe the real reason is just becuase of Jay's new found faith and just believes god is speaking to him.

First off, sign your comments. Secondly, I disagree, and I'm evidently not the only person who feels this way, as I was not the person who originally added it to the article. If you still disagree, fine, we can have a vote or something here, but in the meantime I'm readding it. Dlong 03:47, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Period

Since the original's page is titled "Clerks.", shouldn't this be "Clerks. II" if we're going by the title card? That was how it was rendered on screen. Tim Long 06:14, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

IIRC, while the original was "Clerks.", on-screen it rendered "Clerks." and then the period disappear as the "II" was appearing. Dlong 06:17, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
