I love the idea of a Jay and Silent Bob multiverse. That'd be cool. Also I love how he's always casting his family and friends in his movies. It adds a realness to it. It's super hard to be expressive without saying anything. Randall did have some super sweet lines, I assumed being Silent Bob gave you more writing/directing time.

WHY DIDN'T I KNOW THERE WAS A REBOOT UNTIL TODAY, TWO DAYS AFTER THE THEATRICAL RELEASE?!

Kevin, I know you won't see this but I absolutely love the fact you're in our universe too. I've loved so many of your films (dogma being my favorite). Well done and keep trucking.

Jay and Silent Bob Reboot would be a strong indicator that they aren't a shared universe, since Melissa Benoist is starring in the Bluntman v Chronic movie, meaning that at least in that universe, someone with that face is named Melissa Benoist and a human actress, not a Kryptonian pretending to be Kara Danvers. It also seems unlikely it's Jay and Silent Bob in the Flash, since they don't really seem the Security Guard type; it's probably just a coincidence that they're billed as Jay the Security Guard and Bob the Security Guard... haha Also Jason Mewes played a different character in S02E21
