: ok I finally saw Chasing Amy and I loved it. Now that questions?
: The questions are about the scene I have named Damn Silent Bob talks alot.
: 1 I Jay eating sugar or is that and I hope I'm wrong salt?
According to the commentary, Jay was, in fact, eating sugar.
: 2 Is the bus they need to catch taking them to Shermer Ill a.k.a. Dogma?
A'yup. A tightly woven tapestry, no?
: 3 Is Holden selling/giving Jay weed to sell?(I guess comics aren't enough of a profit.)
No; he's paying for their stories & likenesses, ala J. Peterman in SIENFELD with Kramer. The deleted scenes show just how much money the comic is bringing in. Bankey throws a garbage-can, Mookie-style, through a comic book store window, with a check for more than the damages, and a note that says, in effect, FUCK YOU, I'M RICH. Also deleted was the extended media-mugul-TV-exec scene, where they were talking about how serious the cash was for the comic.
: 4 Part way throw the scene is it just me or does the ciggrate in Bob's hand disappear?(Look when he has the first ciggreate, then it show Holden then back to Kev and there's no ciggrate.
I defy you to find ANY movie with cigarettes that does not have this *flub*, in one way or another.. CUT: Cigarette is short, CUT AWAY, CUT BACK, Cigarette is long. Shit is shot over and over, takes are used out of sequence with their actual filming, and in the process, a "smoking gun" of cigarette appearingor disappearing is the end product.
: P.S. I also just say Bless The Child(theatre) and I would like some info. 1 Who is the girl who plays Cody? 2 Does Cody call Kim Basinger's charector Mim or Ma'am? For all who haven't seen this go see it now?
