Hi,

Film Four obviously don't need to worry.The cinema was full.
It wasn't that big a screening with about 250 people there and from the
opening disclaimer they were entranced. There were more than just existing fanboys/girls there. I'd said about 25% of the audience were just people interested in the movie's premise.In fact the guy next to me didn't exactly recognise Jay and Silent Bob, but knew they were in some other film. Everyone laughed at the funny part's (especially some of Jay's lines which had the best timing!).
Also a larger proportion of the crowd stayed to watch the credit's than I had thought would have.

Anyway onto the thanks!

Thanks Kevin Smith for

1) Making a picture that captured the joyless feeling of being Catholic or Christian without faith.
2) For the best line in the flick which had me in goosebumps,
to paraphrase "– it's a question of faith. It doesn't matter what you believe in – just that you believe."
3) For the scene with God!

Thanks also to

1) The guy in the Vulgar Hockey shirt for allowing me to give him a spare ticket and participate in his joy.
2) The guy who admired my Nails Zippo.

Cannot wait to own this movie on DVD/VHS,

Finbar
