Looking back, there's so many pairs of skate shoes from the 90's I wish I would have saved. The Airwalks alone would be, of course, the Jason Lee, as well as the NTS, the Ones, the Jim Shoe, the Bowling Shoe, etc...

Great video! I had the pleasure of meeting Jason Lee a few times over the years and I can say he's such a cool guy in person too.

YOU KNOCKED THIS VIDEO OUT OF THE PARK!!! Great work!

Being an early millennial, Mallrats was one of those iconic movies that defined the times for my generation, and I think it was too culturally relevant for critics to understand (unlike something like Dazed and Confused which was a time piece and thus something adult critics at the time could understand since they were likely teens in the 70s). Watching it back then, I knew it would be a cult classic and I didn't even know that it bombed at the box office and with critics. There was just nothing else even remotely like it, it turned the teen / early 20 something genre on its head, disposing with the lame cliches and bringing in something that felt authentic, if somewhat corny. That movie made the characters seem cool while also being hapless losers who hadn't figured their lives out at the same time, and it didn't treat comics and video games as just some side joke about nerds. Jason Lee's character was something I wanted to be but was not yet at the time: a confident guy who was comfortable in his own skin as a somewhat nerdy skater type, who was always being witty and making insightful comments. He has at least a dozen iconic lines in this film that I still love and repeat. Nobody like this had ever been made cool in a movie before, he was kinda someone to look up to in a way, an unlikely anti-hero. I never liked My Name is Earl despite really liking Jason Lee, so that was a disappointment for me. I had high hopes after finding out that he was the star of a TV show. It is too bad he never did any other TV projects. I feel like he could have been great in an adult buddy sitcom with young adults, the sort that became popular later on like Workaholics, New Girl, It's Always Sunny, etc. Or maybe his own HBO show, where he could just let the expletives fly. He could have a been a great character in something like Silicon Valley or Californication, maybe even Shameless. I'm happy for the guy to have made a fortune on dumb voiceover stuff so he could effectively retire and move on with his life, but it's hard not to think of what could have been. He is just so good at playing a witty and likable guy who you also kinda want to punch. He always felt authentic.

Wow. I was a big fan of blind boards when I started skating in the late 90s. But as time went on their boards just kinda stayed the same never innovating so I kept swapping brands. I had no idea Jason Lee was the owner back then. God I miss 90s culture. What a time to live through. Riding my bike to school. Coming home and skating and/or playing nintendo 64 then just disappearing to a friends house without telling my parents and just showing back up around 8-9pm. The world was so much simpler back then. Then 9/11 happened. I was like 12 years old at the time. The local skatepark had opened on the 7th or 8th of that september. I remember going to school and quickly realizing something was up. A bunch of kids were going home. One kid came to school late and told me "the world train center was hit by a plane" Me being 12 couldn't understand why a train station would get hit by a plane or what a terrorist was. Anyways I only cared about one thing. The skatepark. When I got home from school I begged my parents to take me to the skatepark they tried to explain why it was a bad idea but I countered with "but that means it will be empty!" I think I got my way and went but none of my friends were there. After that things have just gone downhill.

Love earl

I'll only known Jason Lee as Earl, but the fact that he VA syndrom blew my mind.

Jason Lee is just legendary! Unlike most actor's, he can skate! Thanks

Dude, I knew him as a skater and as an actor but had no idea it was the same guy. Thank you for educating me on that!

I thought about my name is earl the other day, then I get this in the recommended, get out of my head google, but thank you.

epic video bro....sooooo much fun and it brought back scoundrel memories of the 90's. Thank you and merry xmas.

I like the use of scoundrel in this comment, same to you dude 🤙

This is crazy cool! I never knew this! Thanks for sharing!

great video man, Jason lee is one of my favourite actors because my brothers dvd collection was mainly mallrats dogma and my name is earl, plus seeing him in skate 3 shook me, but I soon realised after research that he was a pro skater before an actor and i had no idea and it made me love him more! good job on the vid man

I really appreciate it, thanks!

I was kid watching Jason Lee skate! I really enjoy his acting and movies too! A born performer!

Jason Lee is literally my entire childhood it's almost hard to describe how many facets he's affected from skating to mallrat and the incredibles to Earl and underdog everything it's crazy

Great Video. Mallrats was my favorite movie when I was a teenager back in the 90s; I still enjoy watching it along with Dogma.

Just picked up the Arrow Video 4K version recently, I probably revisit that movie 2-3 times a year.

Awesome video man. Really well put together.

I am about the same age as Jason. I started skating young as well. However, I dropped skating for surfing and never looked back. In that forgotten time period, people like Jason were revolutionizing skating, except I had no idea. Now it's amazing to see how much it has developed and needed people like Jason and Mark.

Holy hell! I didn't know that Earl was a professional skateboarder! And here I thought I knew a lot about skating :P Great video!

Been wanting content like this. Great stuff!

Awesome video! it was suggested on my home page. my name is earl was such a good show

This was a SOLID VIDEO! Thanks for putting it together. 😃👍

Alvin and the Chipmunks was a classic for my brothers and I growing up, and the song is very nostalgic to us of those old days.

looking at your channel and watching a couple of your videos, dude you're so underrated, don't loose the hype of making videos.. there ton of famous people out that don't have documentaries.

I really enjoyed and loved this story I appreciate you putting this together

Wow an amazing vid, very well done. I learned some much behind the scenes stuff that was super interesting to me

Now this took me back to my skating years!! Awesome

very well made video man, kept me interested the whole way through :)
