peace,
First of all, I'm writing from Auckland, New Zealand and I don't mean to
come across disrespectful in any way shape or form, Kevin Smith is a very
talented man, and his movies are classic. Dogma being my favorite. So,
sadly it was unfortunate to see the end of Jay & silent Bob in 'Jay and
Silent Bob Strike Back' (which for some strange reason since I copped it
the day it came out, I seem to be viewing it atleast once a week).
Anyway, to the point.
I don't know if these things have been bought up or not.
But I was viewing Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back last night, again, and
noticed a couple of things about the film and commentary.
First:
Jay and Silent Bob get kicked off the bus for not having a ticket (I'm
aware in the unedited version/bonus footage on the DVD they actually stay
on the bus) but in Dogma (aparently set before Jay & silent Bob Strike
Back) they took a bus to Illinois....so wouldn't they already know aobut
Bus tickets?
and secondly, in the commentary for Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Kevin
says that it's the first time return of Jeff Anderson (I believe that is
Randal from Clerks?), but he was also in Dogma selling Matt Damon and Ben
their gun, correct? Pardon me if it's not.
I hope one day there will be a box-set DVD collection of the UNEDITED/
Directors Cut versions of the films, so we can view them all in their
entirety.
Keep up the good work, and I look forward to the next movie form the View
Askew camp, what ever it may be.
Travel in Harmony.
