Too bad Smith lost all credibility when he sold out and made More Jay and Silent Bob and a second Clerks. Things he said he wouldn't do.

Sorry if someone's already said this in this thread (I stopped reading at this post).

But it wasn't "selling out." Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was made pretty much as an incentive for Jason Mewes to get off drugs. It didn't work, and Smith cut contact with Jason, telling him that if he ever really got his shit together and could prove he was honestly 100% clean, he'd make one more Jay and Silent Bob movie for him.

Jason eventually did get clean, and Smith made Clerks II as a reward for him.

(All of this is chronicled in a VERY long series of blog posts by Smith that tell the whole story of his rocky friendship with Jason. I'd post the link if I still had it.)

I don't see either of those as selling out, myself. I don't particularly like JaSBSB, but I quite enjoyed Clerks II (nowhere near as good as the first, though).

If you want to talk about Kevin Smith selling out, Cop Out is the best example.
