In Reply to: 'Jay and Silent Bob' PA trouble... posted by J. Thomas Jeans on November 14, 2001 at 15:25:40:
: Well, first of all, I’ve got to say that I’m a huge fan of Kevin Smith and his fine work. I wish I were here to praise the man behind my favorite Smith film – Mallrats – but sadly, I’m not.
Kevin requires on set blow jobs, and supposedly asked for a crew of all female PA's...and the union did not provide this, so he filed a complaint with the Union, siting the case of Don Johnson's Nash Bridges Fellacio clause, and in the interum fired the PA's....
Now this is the word on the street, and I would trust a source like Jayandsilentbob.com, as that would have to be valid and trademarked to own that domain..
: I’ve recently come across a site called www.jayandsilentbob.com
: This site basically bashes the hell out of Kevin and his films. Problem is, they received an e-mail that ever THEY were skeptical about that has an in-depth description of how a PA was harassed on set by Kevin and his friends, and then he and four other crew members were fired because ‘it just wasn’t working’. Come to find out, the rest of the crew were told that the five people fired just left for other projects.
: I’d like to discuss the validity of these charges. It’s an upsetting idea, you know...
