it was even better than i expected.

[jer]

i'm really excited to see this, and i'm only hearing good things about it

[Anna Karina]

What the

Every single review I've heard has been that it's one of the worst movies ever made.

Also, it's Kevin Smith, which means there's no possible way it's good to begin with, so

[jer]

oh hey what a shock, the critics who Smith has spent the past two years shitting all over are in turn shitting all over him.

i was spekaing about regular people who i have talked to who have seen it.

I'm not talking about critics. I'm talking about people I know who have seen early screenings.

I mean, some of them have put it in the "so bad it's good" column, but no one has actually said it was good, and there's no goddamn way it is.

[Anna Karina]

The other two films of this "trilogy" sound even worse though.


Moose Jaws! Oh boy!

[Anna Karina]

In regards to Moose Jaws, Smith said, "That's just Jaws with a moose. And it's awesome. There's a scene where the moose's eat, I'm halfway through the script, there's a scene where a moose is eating like a nine year old kid right out of the lake and stuff."


Wow, so hilarious and awesome, Kevin Smith.

[jer]

okay, i get it, you don't like Smith and you think comedy-horror films should really take themselves more seriously.

[Anna Karina]

I like plenty of comedy horror films. Murder Party and 100 Bloody Acres are decent ones I've seen lately.


A shitty movie is a shitty movie. Kevin Smith is not a competent director.

[Anna Karina]

Also, he stole the plot of Tusk from a story someone posted on the internet.

man i just realized i haven't seen a kevin smith film since jay and silent bob, which the first time i saw it in the theater stoned I hated it. The second time it was alright but i wouldn't consciously watch it again. however, clerk-mallrats-chasing amy- dogma, some ok some great satires

Hey jer, have you seen Red state? i noticed it was on netflix, and might watch it tonight. i didn't even realize it was a kevin smith film

[AaronTheCabe]

Also, he stole the plot of Tusk from a story someone posted on the internet.

i wrote a short story before 13th floor and matrix came out that was nearly identical to 13th floor (but mine was better). Sometimes people just have similar ideas

[Anna Karina]

Well, no, that's different. This is something he straight up stole and made a podcast about.

[AaronTheCabe]

well im not aware but if he did and blatantly went about mentioning it. hes no better than chia labeef

[jer]

This is something he straight up stole and made a podcast about.

He saw an ad on craigslist an extrapolated an entire story from it which is a pretty big departure from the ad, and the person who wrote the ad recieved credits and is very happy with it. It's not exactly stealing.

Hey jer, have you seen Red state?

Yeah, it's pretty good but very dialog heavy like everything he does. The ending is a little weird, but it was pretty solid.

[jer]

haha look at this dude he's a bad dresser and he's fat and i don't like things so he must be incompetent at his job and no one else should like things either hahaha

[Anna Karina]

His weight has nothing to do with how ridiculous those jorts are.

[Anna Karina]

And your whole "I don't like things" putdowns thing doesn't work when I like a plethora of things (movies), including a plethora of the things you're trying to say I don't like.

Kevin Smith is not a director. Kevin Smith is a dude with a camera.

[Anna Karina]

His Comic Book Men show is fine.

[jer]

i meant specifically his work.

it's okay to not like it. it's even okay that you say you don't like it.

i don't get your inability to grasp that not everyone shares your opinion on shit and your need to try to convince everyone. just, like... don't like it and move on.

[Anna Karina]

If he'd stop making movies like he continually says he's planning to do, I'll gladly move on. When he continually produces dumb bullshit, I will continue calling that bullshit bullshit.

[Anna Karina]

And no, you just tried to say I like my horror comedies to be "more serious."

[jer]

He said that only at one point in his career and then has since publicly explained continuously why he changed his mind and that is no longer the case. but get this, you can still just not watch his movies or pay attention to him and his existence won't effect you at all and to you, it will be like he retired.

[Anna Karina]

Speaking of horror comedies, the best thing Jason Mewes has been involved with is Feast.

Feast rules.
