Unnotable film extra. This is the listing on IMDB for that name. While it's possible he was in Clerks (he would have been under 3 at the time), he doesn't appear in the IMDB credits for Clerks, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob... or Clerks 2. A search of the View Askew website and a general Google search turns up nothing relevant. He apparently will not graduate from high school for another 3 years, and this article seems aspirational at best, inaccurate at worst. Kateshort forbob  00:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Huh... I just noticed "He auditioned for the role of Brodie Bruce in Mallrats." Yeah, a pre-school Brodie Bruce would have been an interesting direction for the film. I'm leaning more towards a hoax myself now. -- Kateshort forbob  00:36, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete as either a hoax or a very non-notable actor; I doubt a 3 year old would've been in Clerks anyway. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 00:32, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. fails WP:BIO. -- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 00:47, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BIO. If the subject didn't want to be listed in the credits of those films, I doubt he would want to be listed in an encyclopedia as having been in those films, assuming that he did in fact appear in those films. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:14, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, hoax. The original creation of the article had him 16 years old and a high school student.  Now he's in his 30s and a college graduate.   Corvus cornix  talk  04:35, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Looks like a hoax to me, as the content of the article has been laughably inconsistent. First he was born in '91, now it was '75. Then he was "currently working with Kevin Smith" on his latest film, until someone remembered that he died almost a whole year ago. Even now the article claims that he was "Actor, Writer and Director" of Now You Know, which is patently false. Even if this guy is real, he is/was just a film extra which falls well short of WP:BIO, and his death fails WP:MEMORIAL. PC78 (talk) 21:42, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and ignore the sockpuppet farm. This is unsourced at best, and a hoax at worst (which it most likely is). JuJube (talk) 22:46, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * What proof do you have that these are sockpuppet votes. Joe was really in those movies.


 * Delete because of the complete lack of sources to support any notability.-- danntm T C 00:35, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Strong delete for all the reasons cited, but especially the blatant violations of verifiability. -- Orange Mike  |  Talk  17:04, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
