It's been said time and again, but just because one person didn't dig the flick, it doesn't make them the anti-christ (unless Satan himself didn't enjoy it...in that case, it does make him the antichrist) Anyways, keep in mind that Jay And Silent Bob Strikes Back is not the type of movie critics will love. They go to film schools and learn how to analyze the fine art of the cinema, and when they catch a flick like this, if they enjoy it, sometimes they'll reccomend it, but some critics go simply based upon whether it is a classy flick. One flick won't be everyone's cup of tea; we need to accept this. Also, if you are a "newbie," just because this is a Kevin Smith web board, you don't need to go on a hunger strike every time someone speaks ill-will. When the whole GLAAD fiasco hit, we had boards filled with "Fuck GLAAD in the ass!" posts. Understand, if Kevin comes on here and says "I don't like popsicles," that doesn't mean that none of us can like popsicles. In the inverse, if Kev came on here and said "Drink this Kool-Aid, little boy," nothing would force us all to drink the Kool-Aid (not intentionally comparing Kev to a cult leader, but instead referring to the sometime cult-like following some hold). That's my rant addendum.
