: : 1)The flat acting. I KNOW Ben Affleck sucks ass, but the rest of your case? Well, I was expecting more. Did they just get their lines the night before filming? They were so lifeless!
: Claiming to be a smithite, you must of watched Clerks right? The acting in Clerks was 10 times as bad then in Dogma(which I thought was pretty good).
Agreed.
: : 2)The poorly shot scenes. You did this all in no more than two takes, right? I hope so, because it certainly looked that way. If not, you just suck.
: I beleive Vincent already posted about the grainy look of the film, and it wasn't Kevin's fault.
And it's only true of some prints. The print I saw was gorgeous. It's unfortunate that some people were given grainy prints.
: : 4)Ben Affleck. He needs to be singled out. Even IF the movie was actually good, his poor acting would have ruined it for me.
: His acting was right on the money. The end of film he does an outstanding job.(how well do you think you could act dressed like that?)
He gave easily the best performance of the film. I loved Rickman and Lee, too, but their parts were less demanding. Affleck was solid. Beautiful job.
