| • | Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is the fifth movie from Kevin Smith, famous for his cult films Clerks. and Mallrats and the more commercially successful films Chasing Amy and Dogma. The title and its font are take-offs on the fifth Star Wars film, The Empire Strikes Back.
At the time Smith said that this would be the last of his films to feature Jay and Silent Bob. He has since announced that they will appear in the film Clerks 2. It includes numerous references to Smith's earlier films, including brief appearances by many characters from those films. Actors reprising past roles in Smith films include Ben Affleck, Jason Lee, Joey Lauren Adams, Jeff Anderson, Scott Mosier, and Brian O'Halloran. Other main stars include Will Ferrell, Shannon Elizabeth, Ali Larter, and Eliza Dushku.
This movie is a prime example of the phenomenon of fanservice. While maintaining its own plot, the movie has nearly constant references to past Kevin Smith/Jersey Trilogy movies, contains myriad cameos from actors ranging from George Carlin and Chris Rock to Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, in-jokes, and homages to pop-culture icons, especially the aforementioned Star Wars movies.
Other cameo roles include popular late 1990s and early 2000s actors, most notably Seann William Scott and Jason Biggs (both of American Pie fame, James Van Der Beek (of Dawson's Creek fame), and Jon Stewart (of The Daily Show fame). The movie also features cameo appearances by Smith's own wife, Jennifer Schwalbach Smith, and his then-infant daughter, Harley Quinn Smith, the first film of his to do so.
The soundtrack to this film features the 2001 Afroman hit, "Because I Got High", whose music video was directed by Kevin Smith and featured the characters Jay and Silent Bob.
