Kevin Smith and the View Askewniverse

[Cagefighterkip]

affleck is best w/smith and damon... and also, illget crap for it im sure... the directors cut of DAREDEVIL is a damn good flick

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

I loved DareDevil.

Smith ''affleck could play anything, even the shark from jaws''

 

[Cagefighterkip]

affleck would nail that role as Shark...

 

[Kanon]

I liked him in Hollywoodland too

 

[Cagefighterkip]

hollywoodland was amazing, best picture of 2006 imo

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms yo!

yeah but him and matt damon were in good will hunting, yknow that flick with mork from ork. and movie was stupid!

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season was better!

 

[Cagefighterkip]

Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season was better!

yeah,
at least that movie had action. still, its a piece of crap compared to "Moon Raper" starring Ben Affleck...

I love Kevin Smith, but I was so hurt with Clerks II. I felt insulted. It was cheap and inappropriate and felt like it was someone doing a parody of the View Askewniverse. And, it wasn't funny or really poignant in any way, shape or form. But Clerks, Chasing Amy and Jersey Girl are his masterpieces. Mallrats, Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back are just good fun. But Clerks II was a joke.

I still haven't seen Jersey Girl. Is it worth watching or is it another run of the mill romance comedy?

I liked Jersey Girl, it's different, but still holds Smiths humor in a lot of parts. It's not your run of the mill romantic comedy. It's a dad trying to raise his daughter because his wife dies.

Well, since I liked all his other films, do you recommend me checking it out?

Hell yeah!
I love the special features on itt:

It really doesn't have much in the way of romance. It's about family. A single dad raising his daughter while living with his own dad. It might sound mushy, but I have a soft spot for this movie.

 

[Steve Rogers]

I didn't see Lunar's post. We basically said the same thing.

 

[Kanon]

You wanna hear something weird? here in Argentina (and I guess all latin america and other places) Chasing Amy was called The other face of love (La otra cara del amor)

 

[GeoffTheArtist]

I've only seen Clerks, Mallrats, and parts of Dogma and JSBSB. Love Clerks and Mallrats. I like Kevin Smith's films. Although, I'm kind of getting tired of seeing him do cameos.

its his love letter to his daughter, which is realy sweet

Much sweeter than naming her after a psycho clown that can't get over her crush on the Joker at least.

ouch -
at least his wife was cool enough to dig the name and go w/it

I wasn't very impressed with Clerks 2 either, didn't think it came close to being as good as the other View-Askewiniverse movies.
