http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109445/ IMDB RATING: 7.9 Plot: A day in the lives of two convenience clerks named Dante and Randal as they annoy customers, discuss movies, and play hockey on the store roof. Notes: This torrent was made from the 10th Anniversary Edition DVD which includes two different versions of the film: the original theatrical release, and "The First Cut" which is a very rough cut and slightly different version from the theatrical release. "The First Cut" version differs in the following ways: it is shot in 4:3 aspect ratio (960x720) instead of standard 16:9, it is over 12 minutes longer than the theatrical release (runtime is 1:44:34), it has a completely different ending than the theatrical release, and there are some minor line/dialogue differences. The quality of the footage of this version is VERY rough compared to the theatrical release but this is how it was made - it is not an encoding issue! This version is included for the more serious fans and the movie's cult following and probably won't be appreciated by many outside of this category of viewer. If this doesn't apply to you, then feel free to only download the theatrical version and skip "The First Cut" altogether. One last note - I noticed that two other torrents of Clerks on tpb have "The First Cut" listed in the title of the torrent. BOTH of those torrents are mislabeled - neither of those are actually "The First Cut." The fact that there was no torrent which ACTUALLY included the real "The First Cut" is precisely why I went to the effort to encode and upload this myself. Since as of this date this is the only torrent which includes this version, please help out by seeding as long as possible after your download is complete. Thank you. Bonus Material: Also included in the 10th Anniversary Edition DVD is "The Lost Scene" which was a scene intended for the movie originally but was cut for budget reasons. When the 10th Anniversary Edition DVD was made, Kevin Smith decided to put the scene back in, but instead of re-shooting the scene with live actors after the film had been finalized, they created an animated version of the scene. "The Lost Scene" is inserted at 53m14s in the theatrical version where you normally see the notice "Five minutes later..." on the screen. The scene consists of the events that transpire inside the funeral home. In the theatrical version with this scene cut, what happens inside is left to the viewer's imagination. Now, thanks to this bit of bonus footage, the viewers can now see what the writer intended the scene inside the funeral home to be like.

Again, FR0Z3N.0V3R is being a dick for whatever reason. There is absolutely *nothing* wrong with this torrent. Awesome work, jalucian!
Peace!
Peace!

This was an ultra-low budget film, but considering the source material, this is a perfect rip. Can't tell any difference between this torrent and the original DVD. I agree - that second commenter either doesn't know what he's talking about or it's someone just trolling. Thanks for putting the extra material on here in addition to the feature. Clerks fans appreciate it.

Thanks! This is the best torrent out there of Clerks in terms of quality and file size, and it's still the only one which contains "The First Cut." You're right about the other torrent being mislabeled.
That's guy's comment is no longer there, fortunately. :) And thank you guys for the positive feedback.
In case anyone is wondering why the file size is larger here than my other 720 encodes, it's because the source has so much grain/noise in it due to the kind of film Kevin Smith used. Any time you have a lot of grain in the source, you have to increase bitrate to account for it. The same can be seen Beasts of the Southern Wild (shot in 16mm), Der Untergang (Downfall) and the Battlestar Galactica Miniseries and series, which had grain added on purpose to achieve a gritty feel. None of those are quite as grainy as Clerks, though.
