    Zack and Miri Make a Porno :D

    I was able to see an advance screening this past Thursday night. I won't give anything away, but I do have to say that possibly the funniest Kevin Smith movie he has made to date.

    The cast was great, the jokes were constant and the dialogue was fantastic as usual. Definitely go see Zack and Miri Make a Porno when it comes out on Halloween.

    As a side note, I saw the movie at the movie club I belong to. The age range of people is from 20's-80's so there is pretty much people of all ages. There is always a discussion about the movie afterward and there was not a single person who said they did not like it. The funniest comment I heard was while walking out of the theater, a woman who was probably in her mid 50's said "When they mentioned anal sex I nearly pissed myself laughing!" to her friends (whom appeared to be her age) and they all started giggling like little girls.

    And another thing, the homage's to Monroeville are pretty cool. Not only were some scenes filmed at the mall, the hockey team is named "The Monroeville Zombies." Some Dawn people are also in the film, I was excited to see that.

    Aye I've heard Tom Savini is in it.

    I canny wait to see Zack & Miri, but I think us Brits are getting shafted till January or February FFS!

    I'll have the DVD around the same time in that case!

    Who all has a cameo besides Savini? Well....unless you think telling us would spoil the surprise.

    I'm really looking forward to this flick. Maybe going to see it on opening day, but Halloween night sounds like a bad time to release a comedy, if you ask me.

    So would you say it's a straight-up comedy or a romantic-comedy?

    Glad you liked it, DeadJoans, as it allays some of the fears of this films that had crept into my head as of late. I can't help but fear the film will be stale and not that funny, but I hope I'm wrong.

    I would say it is a straight up comedy with romantic comedy elements.

    And there is nothing to fear about the movie, it is very funny. I hope you all go see it when it is released.

    As for the other cameo that I saw it was David Early aka Mr. Berman. He isn't credited, but I am positive I saw him during the audition scene and I think I saw some other Dawn alumni in the movie, but am not positive on the others.

    Just got back from seeing it. I'm sad to say that I found it very "meh". It had some funny stuff...there's no denying that, but the story and progression of the characters was very dull. I imagine Zack and Miri as a cross between any Julia Roberts/Hugh Grant/etc movie and some of Kevin Smith's vulgar writing.

    With that said, i have to reinforce the fact that this film DID make me laugh. Numerous times. But the story is bad. I like just about all of Kevin Smith's work, but this is far below par. It seems like he tried for a Chasing Amy sort of story and ended up with a generic chick flick......but with nudity and harsh language.

    Or maybe you should see it for yourself?

    I'm gonna see it in a couple of weeks when it comes out here - thankfully we're not getting royally butt-bashed on the release date like we did with Clerks 2. I had C2 on R1 DVD before it even came out in cinemas here FFS, but Zack & Miri is sensibly just two weeks behind America-land.

    Well, I highly disagree. I say you should go see it because bassman sounds like hes never seen the damn movie.


    SPOILER!!!
    I dont think Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant would be apart of a movie that features A guy getting **** on and scenes involving full frontal nudity. lol
