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.

He will go to hell and back to find out. Batman: Damned is a visceral thrill ride and supernatural horror story told by two of comics’ greatest modern creators: Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo. The Joker has been murdered. His killer’s identity is a mystery. Batman is the World’s Greatest Detective. But what happens when the person he is searching for is the man staring back at him in the mirror? With no memory of what happened on the night of the murder, Batman is going to need some help. Who better to set him straight than John Constantine? The problem is that as much as John loves a good mystery, he loves messing with people’s heads even more. With John’s “help,” the pair will delve into the sordid underbelly of Gotham as they race toward the mind-blowing truth of who murdered The Joker.

    JUSTICE LEAGUE: RISE OF THE MANHUNTERS ABDULNASIR IMAM E-mail: [email protected] Twitter: @trapoet DISCLAIMER: I DON’T OWN THE RIGHTS TO THE MAJORITY, IF NOT ALL THE CHARACTERS USED IN THIS SCRIPT. COMMENT: Although not initially intended to, this script is also a response to David Goyer who believed you couldn’t use the character of the Martian Manhunter in a Justice League movie, because he wouldn’t fit. SUCK IT, GOYER! LOL! EXT. SPACE TOMAR-RE (V.O) Billions of years ago, when the Martians refused to serve as the Guardians’ intergalactic police force, the elders of Oa created a sentinel army based on the Martian race… they named them Manhunters. INSERT: MANHUNTERS TOMAR-RE (V.O) At first the Manhunters served diligently, maintaining law and order across the universe, until one day they began to resent their masters. A war broke out between the two forces with the Guardians winning and banishing the Manhunters across the universe, stripping them of whatever power they had left. Some of the Manhunters found their way to earth upon which entering our atmosphere they lost any and all remaining power. As centuries went by man began to unearth some of these sentinels, using their advance technology to build empires on land… and even in the sea. INSERT: ATLANTIS EXT. THE HIMALAYANS SUPERIMPOSED: PRESENT INT. A TEMPLE DESMOND SHAW walks in. Like the other occupants of the temple he’s dressed in a red and blue robe. He walks to a shadowy figure. THE GRANDMASTER (O.S) It is time… prepare the awakening! Desmond Shaw bows.
