Not that I want to get shot down or insulted like many others before me by fans that take it upon themselves to be your protectors (and seem to get very exasperated and pissed off at the smallest things!), but I think that if you have scripts, at least attempt to make them! Not to be blatant, but too much pride can become your downfall. If you have a script for Clerks 2: Hardly Clerkin' or Mallrats 2 go ahead and do it! I was truly impacted by hearing that View Askew 5 is destined to be the last appearance of the View Askewniverse! Its such a successful enterprise, if nothing else! It would be.. almost sacreligious to see a great filmmaker like you, especially in this day and age, take the way of martyrdom to the establishment like Rimbaud or Ed Wood. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Kevin Smith is the one bastion of cult and countercultural art in todays vast sea of mainstream media. Maybe I'm just babbling, but I hope that this has even a shred of sense, and that it makes its way to you.
