Poll question: Best Kevin Smith film?
Films he directed, mind you.

Dogma is one of my all time favorite movies. A great stab at religous bullshit!

1. Funny thing about smith is he always throws in a reference
To Canadian hockey teams.
He briefly went to film school in Vancouver.

4. Yea but his movies are always a mess......
An enjoyable mess....

A lot of inside jokes....


He writes and directs like he is putting together a comic book arc series...

Not a bad thing just a little trite for one who had such great potential...

Dogma.....

5. Where did he hook up with Damon, Affleck and Jason Lee?
Actors he loves to use.
Out of those three I like Jason Lee the best.

6. Yea JAson Lee is all 'tude and loves to just throw
himself at a role....

He cracks me up cause he doesn't evr take himself seriously....

I think Affleck got his first big break form Smith in Mall Rats, I believe.... Can't remember and I don't really want to look it up...

But I seem to remember that and then Chasing Amy...

Affleck and Damon are buds from Boston....

Affleck pulled him in

BTW, Jason Lee has a sitcom on NBC this fall...

9. Dogma was a masterpiece IMHO.
His take on religion without denying the existence of God was clever.

Cardinal Glick???
