Hello. I'm a 40-year-old Lesbian who recently discovered your films. I
remember seeing Chasing Amy years ago and thinking "I don't like
it." So, I never saw another of your flicks until I stumbled across
Dogma on cable recently. It was hilarious and oddly touching. I set
about watching your other flicks and have enjoyed them immensely. I
also watched the DVD deluxe edition of Jay and Silent Bob Strike
Back and was astounded by the Lesbian scenes you cut OUT of the
movie. I thought they were extremely funny and made that whole
dynamic amongst the chick gang more understandable (not to
mention funny). I am curious why you made that decision, and I
apologize if I missed the explanation in the DVD.
I was also rather appalled that you were targeted by GLAAD and had
to pay a fine. I found nothing offensive in the movie. Nor do I support
fining people even if I were to find something offensive about a movie
(free speech and all that). It's a little too Ashcrofty for me.
Best of luck and looking forward to more of your flicks.
