Joel Siegel vs Kevin Smith

July 23, 2006

I saw Clerks 2 and I have to say it was pretty darn good. In my opinion it was a better comedy than Clerks. But I don’t think that takes anything away from the first movie.

In Clerks 2 Pillow Pants was the scene I laughed the most at, but there were others that were roflmao funny, but apparently some didn’t see it that way.

Joel Siegel movie critic for Good Morning America didn’t stay long enough to view the entire movie to form his opinion.

At the 40 minute mark of the movie Siegel decided he had seen enough and leaves. As a movie critic this is kind of odd since a job of a movie critic is to watch the entire movie and write about it later. He walking out is really not newsworthy, but how he walked what has caused the buzz. Siegel said ‘Time to go!’ and let everyone around him know ‘This is the first movie I’ve walked out of in 30 fucking years!’ before exiting.

This during a private screening for the media. Dude gets to see free movies and gets paid to write about them, but acts childish when he sees things he doesn’t like? So bush league. Below are video and audio clips of Kevin Smith talking with Joel Siegel on Opie and Anthony. Siegel tries to defend himself and doesn’t realize he is actually arguing with Kevin Smith.
