This is a rant. There's a bunch of indie flicks up for Oscars, yet Chasing Amy is ignored. The movie is a bona fide hit. They put out a bunch of copies at Blockbuster. People are renting and seeing this movie. The movie is ranked number 4 according to Premeire magazine, after compiling a bunch of critic lists. Why does an indie film like The Apostle receive both Spirit and Academy recognition, yet Kevin Smith is ignored by the Academy? The reason: "Just cause a guy's got a predilection towards dick jokes.." I say we send Jay and Silent Bob to bust up that stage like a high school kegger, X-Men style, smikt, snikt.
