Snoochie Boochies! While Kevin Smith announced last year that a third Jay and Silent Bob movie would be hitting screens, he provided some more details on the threequel this weekend, telling his audience at the San Diego Comic-Con that the movie will officially be titled Store Wars.

While little was revealed, Smith did say that the next movie will find Jay and Silent Bob opening a weed dispensary — presumably in Smith’s home state of New Jersey — and finding some stiff competition with a rival joint.

...

Judging by what we know of the plot so far, Jay and Silent Bob: Store Wars does seem like it would try to ground the characters (played by Jason Mewes and Smith himself) in a territory and plot they are more comfortable in. The weed biz has been an endeavor of the duo’s the past couple times around, so centering around that – and not, say, a cross-country trek – should work. It seems that Smith learned his lesson with Clerks III as well, as he says he won’t be killing off any characters this time around…

I haven't watched a Kevin Smith movie since the atrocious 'Zack and Miri' and the nightmare fuel that was 'Red State'. I wasn't even aware there had been a second Jay and Silent Bob.

My tastes have changed though, I don't know if I could still stomach 'Dogma' today.

Ufff i used to like dogma a lot, it did not hold up for me. And the latest jay and silent bob was probably one of the cringiest movies i have ever seen. Maybe it wasn't even that bad, but i listened to a podcast before i watched it where he talked about how fantastic the movie was and how much time he spend perfecting it and how absolutely proud he was of his work. I don't think i watched more than 20min.
