SModimations is a unique comedy movie that combines the wittiness of Kevin Smith's humor and the creative animation of Scott Mosier. The movie is a collection of different skits and shorts that were animated to reflect Kevin Smith's podcast universe. The movie starts with the introduction of Jay and Silent Bob, who are the main characters in most of Smith's movies. Their animated counterparts provide the voiceover narration that sets the tone for the rest of the movie. From there, the movie flows seamlessly from one funny skit to another.
One of the funniest skits in the movie is "Askewniverse." In this segment, we see various different characters from Smith's movies being interviewed on an animated talk show. This includes Randal from Clerks, Dante from Clerks II, and even Jay and Silent Bob themselves. The humor in this skit comes from the fact that the characters are responding to questions that the interviewer never actually asks.
Another standout skit is "Harrison Ford & the Closet of Mysteries." This segment imagines Harrison Ford as an adventurer who ventures into his closet to find various different mystical artifacts. Throughout the skit, the closet comes alive and various different artifacts come to life to help Ford on his journey. The humor in this segment comes from the absurdity of the situation and the way that Harrison Ford's voice is used to deliver the humor.
The skit "Smodward & Mos-Sponge" is another standout segment in the movie. The segment is a parody of Spongebob Squarepants and sees Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier voice Spongebob and Patrick respectively. The segment hammers in the fact that Smith and Mosier are not voice actors by nature, but the humor that they bring to the segment is infectious.
Another skit that stood out in SModimations is "Zombie Riots." In this segment, we see a group of zombies who have come to life and are protesting for equal rights. The humor in this segment comes from the irony of the situation and the fact that the zombies are far more intelligent and articulate than people give them credit for.
Overall, SModimations is an enjoyable movie that will appeal to fans of Kevin Smith's humor and style. The movie has a unique and creative animation style that perfectly captures the spirit of Smith's podcast universe. The skits are varied, and the humor is consistently hilarious throughout. Even though some of the segments in the movie are hit or miss, it is worth watching for the skits that do work.
SModimations is a 2010 comedy with a runtime of 58 minutes.
