James Steven Beverly Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I have to admit, Except for Chasing Amy I never really cared for Kevin Smith, but after seeing this documentery (it's old but I saw it for the first time last night) I gotta tell you this guy is great. Did anyone else see this thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Knowles Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I have to admit, Except for Chasing Amy I never really cared for Kevin Smith, but after seeing this documentery (it's old but I saw it for the first time last night) I gotta tell you this guy is great. Did anyone else see this thing? I saw this awhile back. I thought it was pretty entertaining. He's a great verbal storyteller. If only he bring that level of storytelling to his films. (Not a knock on his films, he is just a very good storyteller) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smith Gr Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 One of my friends bought this dvd a while back. I thought it was good, he does have a knack for verbalising his ideas. He's a pretty funny guy. Liked it! Liked it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Azze Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I saw that film about a year ago on DVD, and yet found myself watching it the other night again on DirectTV over the weekend, listening to the same stories I heard before and being equally intrigued. The guy really is quite a presence. In reference to his films, I think he's pretty underappreciated. I mean he is sort of hit and miss, but I think Jersey Girl warranted much more praise then it got (not every touchy feely romantic comedy has a kid who wants to perform a murder scene from Sweeney Todd!), Chasing Amy's got a great heart despite its overt vulgarity, and Dogma had a really creative way of communicating a message that we don't hear often enough about Catholicism. Can we give this guy his due? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sustaining Member Kevin Zanit Posted April 17, 2006 Sustaining Member Share Posted April 17, 2006 I saw the documentary a little bit ago on TV. I thought it was great, as was said; Kevin Smith is a great story teller. I also enjoy his films a lot. Kevin Zanit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Steven Beverly Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 Actually, I've been watching Clerks lately because they keep running it and I've seen it like 3 or 4 times and IIII'MMM STARTING to appreciate it more. I guess Kevin Smith's films are somewhat of an aquired taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
