Have you read this thread?! The blind support for him from people who were in short pants the last time the fat fuck made a decent flick is beyond comprehension. My most down-voted comments in the 2yr I've been on this site are me shitting on Kevin Smith as a fat has-been and an delusionally arrogant crybaby. I mowed a bunch of lawns in high school to get the at-the-time-$35 special edition dvd of Mallrats back in the late 90s. I adored that and everything up to Dogma which iirc came out when I was a junior in HS. I loved those movies - and still do. He's turned into a fucking self-congratulating choad who throws temper tantrums every time his latest failure doesn't get labeled "best thing ever." He's a petty, arrogant (but feigns humility to people that would never criticize him to begin with - see his "night with" dvds), self-indulgent, manchild with too much money and too many people feeding his ego.
Here's some better-informed and better-written criticisms.
