Finally! Chasing Amy getting a re-release! first day purchase! It would be even better if the whole Jersey Series was included though (Mallrats, Dogma, and Clerks II are missing)

Propably a vol. 2 of the Smith collection if they would come out.

Only interested in Clerks and Chasing Amy, Silent Bob is been out on Blu-ray. Everyone owns that one already.
Gotta get this!
not tryin to troll here...but f**k this guy.
So gonna buy this. FINALLY! My favorite movie of all time gets a Blu-Ray release, Clerks.
Tempting, but being that all three are less than visually spectacular. I'll wait for these to be much much cheaper.
Mantis: I doubt there'll be a Vol 2 boxed set, since all the remaining Jersey films are owned by different studios. Mallrats is owned by Universal, Dogma by Lion's Gate (or did it revert back to Miramax for home video?), and Clerks II by The Weinstein Company.
Nice, comes with Kevin Smiths ego too...
I guess Kevin Smith fandom is just one of those things I'm not supposed to understand...
Sweet. Kinda pointless considering his lack of any visual style whatsoever, but new special features interest me. Netflix it is.
Love these movies, but seriously: Do any of them need this? Especially Clerks.
why does Clerks feature a making-of for the Jay and Bob movie....typo? lol
Finally! Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back get a better Blu-Ray with extras! :D

>.< I totally forgot that! lol ...Either way If I recall correctly The other films are already on BD except for Mallrats

Booo! Hiss! I call Bulls**t!
I mean really, would it have killed anyone to toss in Mallrats and Dogma to complete the 5 part Jay and Silent Bob Trilogy? Dogma at least is a pivotal, if not the best movie, in the saga. Parts 1, 3 & 5? I don't get releases like this. Never had any faith in BD and this is just more convincing evidence the right decision to ignore BD was made. So long suckers!

Thembones, Mallrats is owned by Universal and Dogma is owned by Sony. Back to the subject, now all we need is for Universal to release a Blu-Ray for Mallrats in time for it's 15th Anniversary (my how time flies).
IMO Chasing Amy is the best of the Jersey series
Man, I do hope Jay and Bob comes out in the UK, I noticed there's rumblings of the other 2. Dogma was an awesome transfer, so hope Chasing Amy lives up to promise, having just seen Clerks. on the big screen the image was superior to the DVD, so hope the Blu Ray is all it could be.
I've never been a Kevin Smith fan. I'll pass.

Yeah! I'm with you, Thembones.
Not being able to package two other movies along with these three because of studio rights is clearly the fault of the Blu-Ray Disc Association, so I won't be buying into their bulls**t anymore. They won't be getting THIS sucker either!
Thank you for showing me the clear line of logic that I've been missing all this time.

As an owner of all the DVDs in the Jersey Trilogy, I am aware of the distribution rights of the films. However, as someone who has also worked with rights in entertainment, distribution of properties can be negotiated and since we are talking about a series, most likely in the interest of all parties, that a collection of a series sells much better than a broken chain. But thanks for pointing that out for those who are not in the know.

I quite agree. Yet another reason to dismiss BD releases. Take the time. Put a comprehensive package together and make it worth while to at least the casual fan.
I say NO to BD simply because the jump in technology isn't significant to make the investment worthwhile for me. Some epics or Sci-Fi look great but the percentage is again too small to warrant it. Also, someday, yes, someday you will be able to rent all of the BD releases and view them in your home. I'm also sure that the extras will be available as well. I have noticed that some BD releases do lack extras that accompany standard DVDs. Also, do extras really need a BD treatment?

Kevin Smith movies sure do entertain me but I am pretty satisfied with my DVDs so no go for me. I'll be buying Zack & Miri on blu-ray though... one day....

Being a HUGE Kevin Smith fanboy,and love extra features,I'll be buying JUST Clerks X5 and Chasing Amy. Yes I am a Kevin Smith fanboy,but that doesn't mean I have to re-buy his movies on Blu-Ray just for better audio and video. Since Clerks is getting a new introduction for the BD and the highly anticipated by me,finally being released Oh What a Lovely Tea Party:Making of Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back(which is a feature length documentary directed by Kevin's wife) and the new commentary,documentary,Q&A,and Kevin-Joey interview for Chasing Amy.
