Kevin Smith

Kevin Smith is one of my favorite directors (I have 2, him and Darryl Fong.) I would like to take this post to talk about his work.




His movies are hilarious for one, and he is from Red Bank,NJ. I was born and raised (and still recide) in NJ. So, we have something in common. I've been to his store many times. I hope to see him there once. (Hopefully.) I visited the church in which the final scene of DOGMA was shot. It was a 10 minute drive.





His movies are great. My favorite is DOGMA, I loved Mallrats and Clerks. DOGMA is a relegious movie, more or less, but focuses on it in a good way, to not piss people off. Or too, but not seen that way. It's about two renegade angels that find a loophole in God's plan to ban them from heaven, threatening existence forever. Clerks and Mallrats have a good style to them, kind of like documentaries. Shot without fancy camerawork, simple, but elegant in a way.



So, in summary, I reccomend you see his movies. They're great. And I mean that. I post this for I forgot too post any of his movies in my list of movies too see (mostly parodies, huh?)See you homies later, EAST SIDE!






I apologise for that.
