THE BIG REVEAL
Hold onto your name tags and snack cravings, because the entirety of Kevin Smith’s “Clerks” opus is dropping into our laps with a swanky, Amazon-exclusive collector’s set, cradling all three chapters of the cult-classic trilogy. Designed to mirror the quintessential Quick Stop, this collection isn’t just a visual feast; it’s a treasure trove of in-film Easter eggs and nods to Smith’s wider cinematic universe. It’s ready to be snagged off the virtual shelves of Amazon come November 7, 2023, and is priced at a cool $129.99.
The cinematic trip down to the Quick Stop just got real with Kevin Smith’s “Clerks” serving up an Amazon-only deluxe collector’s edition, bringing home the entire trilogy. Each film, from the breakout hit “Clerks” to “Clerks II,” and the latest installment “Clerks III,” is enshrined within a detailed miniaturized version of the iconic Quick Stop storefront. The Clerks Ultimate Collection isn’t shy about its contents: it includes an assortment of cling stickers to personalize the store replica with a touch of benign mischief, a slot mimicking the good old VHS drop-off, and a nod of authenticity with an included certificate. Eager collectors can jump the queue and pre-order now, as it drops on Amazon this November 7, 2023, at a retail value of USD $129.99.
What’s the “Clerks” Fuss All About?
At its core, “Clerks” is a snapshot of Dante (Brian O’Halloran) and his buddy Randal (Jeff Anderson), who both man the counters at the Quick Stop Groceries and the neighboring RST Video in Leonardo, New Jersey. Conceived on a shoestring budget of just over $27,000 and immortalized in gritty black-and-white, “Clerks” blazed its way from Sundance to a Miramax release in ’94, blindsiding critics as a sleeper success. This breakout triumph not only cemented Smith’s rep as an indie film maestro but also gave us the endlessly chill duo, Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith), who went on to meander through the “View Askewniverse.”
Following the misadventures, “Clerks II” chronicles Dante and Randal’s leap from convenience to fast food, culminating in their acquisition of the resurrected Quick Stop, with a side of romantic entanglements featuring Becky (Rosario Dawson). “Clerks III” brings a bittersweet flavor, with Randal and Dante channeling their midlife into the art of filmmaking after facing the music of mortality and friendship. Beyond the silver screen, “Clerks” further expanded into a never-broadcasted live-action pilot and an animated TV series that, though brief, achieved cult status.
While “Clerks” is lauded as one of the indie darlings of the ’90s, its successors garnered a spectrum of critical reactions. The trilogy capper, “Clerks III,” split opinions down the middle, securing a 63% on the Tomatometer. Yet, Ross Bonaime of FilmSweep threw his weight behind it, touting it as Smith’s crowning work in recent years, celebrating the director’s return to form and avoidance of previous missteps.
Get your hands on the Clerks Ultimate Collection via Amazon pre-order, retailing at $129.99 USD. And for those who live by the buzz of the reel, keep your eyes on FilmSweep for the latest scoops, and relive the nostalgia with the original “Clerks” trailer just a scroll away.
