Probably not.

But he may be a hack with the most overly inflated opinion of his talents.

>>67111539
I read a bit in Kevin smith's first biography where he's talking about how fucked up Hollywood is and the film industry, he said that the rich or good looking actors/directors get so much pussy that they're desensitized to it all, so most of them end up being into really weird shit like scat. if i remember correctly he said something like he heard that one guy (didn't want to reveal name) would sit under a glass coffee table and jackoff while a woman stand overtop of it and shits on the glass.

who was he talking about?

would have anything to so with this
shit. I, for one, will be boycotting
this movie. Who's with me?
>>
>>67112585
All celebrities say the same shit. Mötley Crue apparently ended up sticking landline phones to underage pussies because fucking meant nothing anymore.

There's a similar story of jacking off under a glass table while a hooker shits on it about wrestler Jimmy Valiant too. Jake Roberts said pretty much the same thing, you can get anything you want so nothing feels like anything anymore and then you're doing the sickest sexual shit daily while smoking crack with your wife waiting at home.

Red State was pretty good for what it was.

Kevin Smith confuses the fuck out of me because he seems like maybe he has the capacity to make competent and interesting films, but instead spends his time and money making really terrible movies, and ranting about comicbook crap. Even if he continually made dumb comedies like Zack and Miri Make A Porno, he would still be putting bigger hacks like Seth Rogan to Shame.

Clerks was shit. Mallrats and Jay and Silent Bob were abominations

Do you think Zack and Miri Make a Porno is better than Clerks?
>>
>>67113272
Yes. Zack and Miri was an example of a good comedy.
Clerks was a bad example of whatever that was.

Not really, at least not when it comes to making movies.
At the moment he's making small films for no one but himself, not giving much fuck about how they are received, so pretty much the opposite of hack.
The hackiest he ever got was Jersey Girl and Cop Out, and Cop Out's awfulness was in huge part not his fault.
He does tend to suck dick and overhype capeshit though, but you can blame that in part on middle age and weed.

To be fair, Francis Ford Coppola used to be hot shit, and I'd rather watch a new Kevin Smith picture than any of the shit he's making nowadays.

>overhypes capeshit
Why in the world would that happen?
>>
>>67113504

Francis Ford Coppola is in the top five American filmmakers that ever lived.

Kevin Smith made Clerks... and that movie that aged like shit where Ben Affleck fucks a lesbian and everyone talks like it's the R-rated GIlmore Girls... and then a bunch of podcasts I guess.
>>
>>67113518
Why does that make it okay? If anything it's worse because he should know better by now. The difference between a fan and a fanboy is knowing the good from the bad and not blindly worshiping it all
>>
>>67113518
I'm a livelong comic fan as well, but I'm not afraid to be critical at times. I like Kev, but he tends to oversell shit and be exited about shit by default, in part because he's lost his edge growing into a comfortable middle aged lifestyle, in part because chainsmoking weed makes everything awesome.
I tend to appreciate his positive attitude, it's something to be aspired to really, but sometimes he can drone on and on and on while sucking somethings dick, or burst into tears over something as inane as a video game commercial.
>>
>>67113431
Smith is better than Rodriguez and Tarantino has been shit for about two decades too.
>>
>>67113569
>Francis Ford Coppola is in the top five American filmmakers that ever lived.

And also in the bottom five.
Kev never had as big a rise or a big a fall was my point. He can afford to still tag along on the back of giants more than Coppola at this point.
>>
>>67113669
>Tarantino has been shit for about two decades too.

Debatable but at least he's been a filmmaker for the last two decades which means he beats Smith no matter what.

Only because you're still looking at Coppola as the genius that made Apocalypse Now or The Godfather.
But have you seen Youth Without Youth? Tetro? Twixt?
Say what you will about Kev, he'll never be that bad a film maker.
>>
>>67113691

If Coppola released the Godfather in 72 and then spent his life cranking out three or four Friedberg & Seltzer-tier Epic Movie / Disaster Movie / Meet the Spartans movies a year from then until now, he would still be a better director than Smith.

Fuck off Kevin Smith.
>>
>>67113840
Not currently, no. My point was, I'd rather see a new Kevin Smith picture than a new Coppola picture, because in the past 20 years, Kevin Smith has been a better director than Coppola. Thus making Kevin Smith a better director in the here and now.
