: Look, as I said, i'm making a docudrama about why people are addicted to bad cinema. I think Kevin is part of the problem... Here is why...
: The way I see it, I've wasted so much money on bad cinema that I've reached my breaking point. So I've decided to make a documentary about the subject (ie. why are people addicted to bad movies). They're are two camps primarily (ie. The Star Wars camp where SUV driving Babyboomers flood the theaters in support of sentimental fx driven Spielberg crap AND the Clerks crowd where pre-Columbine losers who watch Fight Club once a week and live on a diet of Redbull). The only way to vanquish America's addiction of bad movies is to find out where the cults of bad moviemaking live and put the smack down. I don't care if I change your mind or not. What i do care about is this: on this website I'm the ONLY ONE with enough guts to criticize Kevin Smith. You guys are too busy sucking his dick to realize that you WORSHIP a human being. This is like that creepy scene in Conan when James Earl Jones is about to burn the, like, eight million follows who blindly worship him. Is that what you want to do with your lives? Worship Kevin Smith? You don't even know him? ANd the fact that he takes advantage of you and lets an impovished public worship a celebrity (ie. him) who obviously needs to stop surfing the net and therapy is what is wrong here. Celebrity worship = human worship = cults of personality (ie. Mao, Jim Jones, Club 54, you name it!) And until he gives this addiction up, his movies will continue to tank at the box office and the masses will continue to pay their hard earned money for movies they know deep down inside suck!
