: Hey Mr. View Askew Histoian, just got a question. When a scene gets cut out of the film does it still happen in the Askewniverse? Somethings are referred to(Holden talking to Banky about his gay-bashing after Alyssa talks to Holden about it) and somethings can not have happened in retrospect(Dante's death). So what's the deal? Did these things really take place? Did Walt and Steve-Dave really have their window broken by Banky? Did Jay and Silent Bob really do a rendition of "Fat Albert"? Or does anything that ends up on the cutting room floor or as "extras" on a DVD simply not take place? Please shed some light. Thanks.
I have no knowledge about this, but let me share my view. I think that if they refer to it later, it happened. If they forget about it, like Dante's death, it didn't happen. I would assume this because many people haven't seen the cut footage on DVD, and so Mr. Capitalist, I mean Mr. Smith, would not want to cut out a large group from understanding his movie. That would just be bad business. If he wanted it to have still occured, then it will be refered to in a way that everyone will understand. I am glad I could be of no help whatsoever.
