This video clip of filmmaker KevinSmith was shot at San Diego Comic-Con 2009. It's not new, but it has been making the rounds this weekend due to the huge box office success of the Twilight sequel The Twilight Saga: New Moon. But because we've never featured it on the site before, so... why not? In the clip, embedded after the jump, Smith makes the argument that we should encourage...

Smith made four receptions in the game, gaining a total of 104 yards. His longest gain through the air went for 63 yards. Smith's score was from 25 yards out in the second quarter.

"Clerks" and "Chasing Amy" have now made it to Blu-ray, but during his review of "The KevinSmith Collection: Clerks, Chasing Amy, and Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back," The Dude on the Right is still wondering why there is a documentary about the making of "Jay and Silent Bob" on the "Clerks" disc. Yes, he listened to KevinSmith...
... Bella and Edward Nativity Scene that's currently on your front lawn, why not let our good buddy KevinSmith have the last word on all things Twilight . During his panel at this past San Diego Comic-Con, Smith went off for about four minutes on the Twilight Phenomenon, and took us through the experience of watching a clip from New Moon while thousands of young girls screamed...
You don't need me to tell you the titles, but I will anyway because people have found great meaning and comfort and, above all else, laughs in MALLRATS, CHASING AMY, DOGMA, JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK, CLERKS II (Kevin's favorite of his own films), ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO, and, yes, even JERSEY GIRL. Smith is not just a writer-director and occasional actor (he's played versions...
KevinSmith just put out a book called Shootin’ the Sh*t with KevinSmith. It’s a transcript of the best bits from SModcast, the podcast he does with his producer Scott Mosier. SModcast is basically just Smith and Mosier talking about movies and sex and Harry Potter and Helen Keller and whatever else comes up. [...]
Detroit RB KevinSmith has a great matchup in Week 11 against Cleveland, and he's the CBSSports.com. Cleveland is No. 30 in run defense with 166 yards per game allowed and 13 touchdowns. Nine running backs have reached double digits in Fantasy points against the Browns, including their past five opponents in Marshawn Lynch , Rashard Mendenhall , Ryan Grant , Matt Forte and Ray Rice ....
You know, I don’t have much particular affection for KevinSmith or his work–I think his best years were behind him after Mallrats, and I have to wonder if I didn’t like Mallrats because I was roughly the protagonists’ age when it emerged, thus giving me a note of resonance with it. That and my [...]
You have to admire KevinSmith. Growing up in New Jersey, he found himself a circle of likeminded friends who took his scripts and performed them in a sort of comedy revue that wowed audiences in Red Bank. Inspired, he went on to Vancouver and film school where he met his producing muse, Scott Mosier. Back home, they scraped together $27,500, recruited Smith’s friends and...
I am an unashamed KevinSmith fan, and primarily of his earlier, less mature work. If there's such a thing as quality dick and fart joke movies, I would say Kevin's pre-Jersey Girl films fit the description. While I wasn't a big fan of either Clerks 2 or Zack and Miri Make a Porno, films [...]
UPDDATE: Smith has piped up on to say "that's not the title yet." So there's still hope!Whether it's because of the provocative material he chooses or the fact that he's cursed, KevinSmith seems to be locked in a lifelong battle against censorship. The latest kerfuffle has been about a movie that hasn't even opened yet, a buddy cop comedy once titled A Couple of Dicks but doomed...
It would probably be wrong to say that KevinSmith speaks for my generation. He certainly has, as his production company name tells us, a View Askew, and that means that we'd all have to have the same sort of skewed view if he spoke for my generation. While it might be that we all see things somewhat off-center, I'm not convinced that we see things from the same off-center angle. Even...
