GREAT movie, better than Clerks in my opinion. Silent Bob just simply.. rules :)

I'll see the new one, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, on Tuesday. At least now I'm more informed (and better cultured :P )</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Heh... anyhow, you should definatly see Dogma, like Seeker said.

Also, the other movie he has is Chasing Amy. This isn't his usual brand of movie, it's still sort of funny, but generally, it's a far more serious movie. It's still a good movie, but don't watch it expecting the usual.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It wasn't meant to be an insulting. He was just criticizing the flaws of organized religion.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Yah, Chasing Amy is definitely not in the "crack you up" style of Mallrats... but absolutely a brilliant film.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Oh god yeah. Mallrats is one of the kings of directly crackup humor, the kind you hafta love (whereas the other Kevin Smith ones usually make ya think more).</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Bah! Dogma was an excellent film. A brilliant combination of comedy, drama, and hidden messages.</div>

It's the reason he actually toned down the budget for Chasing Amy: he feared the commericialism had gone to his head.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Uh...no...Catholocism isn't just all about rules and regulations. Have you ever read the Bible? It would be impossible to follow the Bible by the letter, since there are a lot of contradictions. Not to mention you have to take into account the times the individual books were written.</div>
