    Do you think he’ll show up to protest the re-release like he did with the original?

      I’m tempted to do that myself!

      …right up until I tell someone to hold my sign for me because my movie is about to start, and then I go inside to watch it.

      Whenever this guy’s name pops up, I remember Courtney Love, on the red carpet for something, was asked her advice to young actresses. She responded something like “don’t be alone in a room with Harvey Weinstein.” She had an extremely promising acting career, but dropped off the face of the earth after that remark.

      Fuck Harvey Weinstein.

          Gonna go off on Yoko next?

          Edit: actually, I’d like to highlight this video essay on the subject. The focus is Yoko and the Beatles but she does mention Courtney too.

    Does this mean they’re going to pull it from YouTube?

    It’s been available to stream there for years because no one was making any copyright claims against it.

      Kevin has made a few disappointing films over the years, but I wouldn’t say he’s a bad filmmaker.

      The 4:30 Movie is quite good, and probably the most mature comedy he’s ever made. It really felt like a return to form so I’d recommend giving that a chance if you enjoyed his early work.

        Red State is also a fun diversion from his older work.

          When I first watched it I didn’t know he was the director. I was impressed with his range as a director.

      Later movies don’t impact earlier ones. Clerks is still a masterpiece.

        No, Clerks ceased to exist the moment Smith put out Yoga Hosers. That’s the way the world works. Everything later ruins earlier works and can delete them entirely if they’re bad enough.

        He doesn’t even understand why people like clerks. Or at least ye pretends to. He always acts embarrassed that he made the movie and people still like it. He never did anything better and he never will. And i don’t think he cares, all he wants is to make a marvel Disney movie and make a billion dollars.

      Lol. That’s possibly the best way to get people to list out the great movies he’s made. I’ll go ahead say it, I love Jay and Silent Bob.
