"It’s mall or nothing!” Smith writes. “20 years in the making. 113 pages fulla old friends, new jokes and a bloody battle with Stan Lee! This is for you, Jim. Wish you were here.”
The Jim who Smith refers to is Jim Jacks, producer of the original Mallrats, who wanted to make a sequel of the film for a numbers years, but sadly passed away in 2014 prompting Smith to make this sequel in his memory.
