It May Be Time For Kevin Smith's Jorts Intervention

Kevin Smith attended the premiere of Eclipse last night with his daughter, dressed like he usually is, but even more so. While we're not style critics here at Movieline, and we just shrugged at Smith's shirt (which was potentially stolen from a college freshman who is so psyched that he can now wear clothes with cuss words on them), we feel it is necessary to address the jorts, once and for all.

I get that the jean shorts are Smith's shtick, but he's starting to feel like a prisoner of his carefully cultivated slacker image. Do you think he is ever about to put on pants, then he blanches, thinking, "Can't let anyone see me without my jorts!" That is not healthy, Mr. Smith.

Live a full life! We already "get" you -- there's no need to keep it up! Could there be anything worse than having a drawer (potentially multiple drawers) that are just jorts? Save yourself the ignominy and explore other sartorial options for the good of mankind, or at least look into bringing back jams or something. At that point, we'd be willing to scratch off Jersey Girl.
