Trivia
Much of the movie was filmed at a real used car dealer known as "Mack George motor cars". Real car deals were going on in the building during filming, sometimes the audio had to be recorded later since there were other things going on in other rooms or outside. Sometimes When filming a scene outside, if a customer wanted to look at a car, they had to stop filming. In the scene where Jay's on the phone with Judy telling her that Bernie and Vince quit, about 12 feet over from him a car deal was going on which is why he speaks softly. The microphone was just below him, just out of view of the camera. See more »Goofs
When Jay and Kevin are talking about getting more money for the cars, Jay says, "Kevin, we're not gonna go that route." But when the same conversation, as recorded by Kevin's hidden camera, is shown on the TV report, he says, "Kevin, I don't wanna go that route." See more »Quotes

Based on previous comments, apparently the movie made its way across the country. But I am disturbed by some comments.
Who's to say a movie needed actual actors to play the parts? I have seen no-name actors go on to do huge movies.
Who's to say a movie needed a million dollar budget? Clerks was made with a 30,000 dollar budget and the movie was excellent. It also paved the way for at least five other movies such as Mallrats, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and even Clerks 2. Meanwhile, Sherwood Pictures has a new movie in September and I imagine there may be more to come.
And so "they shove religion down our throats". Big deal. Lots of movies have shoved a lot down our throats. Some negative, some positive. People can be influenced so much by movies. And I believe that is why the movie was made in the first place.
The characters were great. The Kendricks proved that you can make a clean family movie and yet have a villain(Bernie). I love villains. And he was brilliant.
The scene with Bernie and Vince about biscuits was about the funniest I have seen in any type of genre of movies.
Just thought I'd throw in my 53 cents in.
