Clerks 2 Trailer Hits The Net, Supports YouTube

Check out the new trailer for Clerks 2 from director Kevin Smith, director of Clerks, Dogma and Chasing Amy. I think my friend Randy may implode with glee: a movie with Rosario Dawson AND Wanda Sykes. Not to mention cameos from Kevin Weisman (Marshall from TV's Alias), Ben Affleck and Jason Lee. And the return of Jay & Silent Bob.

Congrats to Kevin and the folks at View Askew Productions for using YouTube, among other places, to distribute the trailer. Unlike NBC, who had their lawyers bully YouTube into pulling the videos, Kevin Smith and other smart people like Comedy Central (who won't remove South Park's Scientology episode "Trapped in the Closet" from YouTube) see the benefits of YouTube and viral marketing.

The sweetness begins August 18th 2006. Not for the faint of heart. ("Mannequin Skywalker" - classic!)
