When Jay and Silent Bob discover that Hollywood is rebooting an old movie based on them, the clueless duo embark on another cross-country mission to stop it all over again! 1 CAST & CREW BIOGRAPHIES: KEVIN SMITH (Silent Bob, Director / Writer) Kevin Smith has been saying silly cinematic shit since his first film Clerks, released way back in 1994. He had a heart attack and almost died last year but survived solely so he could direct his magnum opus, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. A polygamist, he’s married to both his wife Jen and podcasting. JASON MEWES (Jay) Jason Mewes most recently made his directorial debut on MADNESS IN THE METHOD, which was released in August 2019. With cult-fans following his controversial antics, Mewes has captured audiences with his rebellious banter against his unspoken other half and longtime friend, Kevin Smith. Since the beginning of the duo’s offbeat work together, Mewes and Smith have continued to build on their beloved character-driven roles from the Jay and Silent Bob series. It’s been over a decade since fans last saw the duo in live- action, but they’re back along with a star-studded cast in the upcoming comedy film, JAY AND SILENT BOB REBOOT.

I am truly thankful for all the personal and professional support I received throughout this time to pursue my project. First, I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee – Janet Staiger, Tom Schatz, Mary Kearney, Mary Beltrán, and Julia Mickenberg – for their hard work and insightful feedback. Janet Staiger has been instrumental in developing this project since I arrived at the University of Texas in 2011. Like any great mentor, Janet would know when I needed to meet and talk through my idea, and would know when I needed my space to write and work through each part on my own. In our meetings, Janet would facilitate deep conversations about the core issues surrounding my project and keep me focused on the media’s representations of emerging-adults.

Since age sixteen or so, I would rely on the music magazines (and eventually websites) curated by members of Gen X for signals about what sorts of music I should listen to, what kinds of old albums were schlock and which would earn me a respectful nod from the record store clerk when I purchased them, and eventually what sorts of films were worthwhile.
