Red state was a mess because of what happened at Sundance, but he never retired. This movie is failing hard as well, I'm sure he will tell us why on his smodcast.i only heard of this film's existence through red letter media. uh didnt smith retire from directing when his last few films bombed and critics raped his ass at every turn?
well its confusing when there are headlines like this,Red state was a mess because of what happened at Sundance, but he never retired. This movie is failing hard as well, I'm sure he will tell us why on his smodcast.
well its confusing when there are headlines like this,
Kevin Smith announces retirement from directing, intention to distribute films himself The A.V. Club
to be honest, when he did announce his retirement i agreed, that bruce willis movie and then when red state came out it kinda hit home that when jay and silent bob arent in his films they really suck and that jay and silent bob may be getting old too. so retirement might be the for the best. i think his best work is with him live on stage telling an audience stories about the interesting people he met or the mishaps he gets into.
I enjoyed it, but there were definitely some fucked up moments. What bothered me the most is the very very end (after the big finale).
So they kill the bad guy and just leave Josh as a fucking walrus? Why didn't they try to give him surgery or something and return him back to his normal(ish) human self? It couldn't be that difficult. Especially if some guy could quickly hack together turning him into a walrus in the first place.
That really left me with a strange feeling.
