This is my first post, but I had to voice my opinions. Movie directors could learn from Kevin's (and Scott Mosiers') devotion to continuity. Sure almost any director can direct any film, but to create a new one that compliments (and rewards the audience of the first films) is an admirable trait. I admit that I missed the whole Clerks buzz, but when I saw Mallrats, whoah, no words to describe it. Just waaaaaayyy to many parallels to my own life. (although seeing a true Ivana would be interesting :)) Anyway, I guess this is pretty much a fluff post, Kevin rules, George Lucas should be cleaning Kevin's toliets (What the hell, Jedi, didn't even need tape to wrap that package). I guess while I have someone's attention I may as well keep going :) How bout that Chasing Amy. Way too cool (didn't see that until after Dogma) Who in there right mind could say there was a lack of camera angles (useless Amazon.Com fools) Did it tell the story... YES!!!. Did it tell it well ... YES!!! then have a coke and a smile and shut the fuck up!! If you want camera angles go see blair witch :) BTW I am working on getting my Mom to watch Dogma (she is a Methodist Minister) - The whole 'It is better to have an Idea than a Belief thing' - C'mon Spielberg may be able to direct, but did he ever write anything like that? - Wait, I can still type more??? OK. What can you say about Jay and Silent Bob.. what a duo- Perfect complementing of personalities, the cool in the click-stoner, and the quiet talented introspective genius, and somewhere in the middle of that combined personality is a little bit of us all (way too cool). And wait there's more??? :) Sure there is, I've had a couple beers in me, I just downloaded the Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back trailer and I have to say - what anticipation! How else can any fan describe it? Please don't let my lack of verbal expression hold anyone back. Ok, I need to wrap this up, I am sure none of this is makeing sense anymore. Keep on Kevin!!!
