My thoughts on this might ruffle some feathers but for everything
Kevin has given us the least we could do is go see the films in
theaters or buy the DVD's or VHS. Maybe he's a millionaire now but
the man maxed his credit cards and sold his comic book collection( a
move I would definitely have to think long and hard about) to make
Clerks. Kevin may never reach the level of Uncle George or Spielberg
but he is one of the few people working in Hollywood that has
retained some sense of humanity. The man works hard for his
money and he might not want to come out to say this himself but I will
and it is my opinion(and probably the opinion of most on this board)
that by buying tickets to his movies or the VHS or DVD'S, as well as
stuff from The Stash we are allowing him to keep making movies that
so many enjoy and that I personally will remember for as long as I
live. So if you enjoy the mans work go out and support him by
spending some of your hard earned cash so Kevin will be able to
make films for as long as he wants to.
