: Kevin,
: I am very curious as to why this next movie is going to be the last with Jay and Silent Bob. You guys seem to have so much fun with these characters, I was just wondering why you would do make this decision. If you would please get back to me on this I would be most appreciative.
It's because Jay and Silent Bob are gay (VA5 will also mark the last appearance of Banky, for the same reason). Did you watch CHASING AMY? Kevin Smith is obviously a hate mongering whitey-rich-boy.
At this year's Toronto Film Festival, he screened DO THE RIGHT THING, as part of the Discussions program. Here are some quotes from his discussion:
"Spike Lee is one stupid ass! Always black this, black that. How about he puts some normal people in his movies? Like Ben Affleck."
"DO THE RIGHT THING? The right thing would have been to have that guy in the Celtics jersey, kick Buggin Out's ass!"
"Wasn't it funny when Radio Raheem got killed? I think he was gay, so he deserved it even more."
"You people are probably here to hear me speak, not see the movie, so do we really even have to show it?"
"There were a lot of black people in DOGMA. I think I dealt with them better than Spike Lee ever has. I had a shit demon shoot shitballs at them. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Snootchie bootchies!"
I could go on. But I think I've answered your question, and hopefully opened your eyes to exactly the kind of biggot Kevin Smith is.
