Bits of DOGMA seen!!!

Well shucks, seems like the only eyes to of seen some of Dogma are some Buckeyes. I haven't heard from anyone else that has seen a frame of this super cool flick, so I guess this is a first of some sort. I can just sense all the askewers wanting the download, but alas we ain't got one. All good things to those who wait...

Oh and one other thing, I'd like to complement the rather cool tactics that Miramax is taking with this property. By showing footage like this months and months ahead of time... well it creates a fervor.. a fire that will carry all the way through the release of the film. Just reading the enthusiastic pourings of these two fanboys, will motivate thousands of other fanboys to say, "MAN, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE DOGMA!!!" Folks, this is why Miramax is cool, and Kevin is the coolest...

I am an Ohio State student and I just got back from seeing Kevin Smith speak here on campus. He was absolutely brilliant. As a treat for those of us who stuck around and didn't leave halfway through to see the daily show, Kevin showed about 12 minutes of Dogma.

The footage was very raw, but it didn't matter because as usual the dialogue was the important part. We got to see alot of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. We saw one seen with Alan Rickman walking on water. We saw a lot of Linda Fiorentino as well. There is one scene we saw with Salma Hayek (who he said does not get naked), Chris Rock, and a shit monster. Jason Lee looks smooth as hell. And, of course, Jay and Silent Bob are present singing a nice little tribute sort of thing to Fat Albert. But best of all...............................................................RANDAL IS BACK!!!!!

Everything was out of context, so it was hard to really tell what was going on plot wise. My advice for those who want to know more about the plot is to read the script floating around out there. There are two particular scenes I thought might be worth commenting on. The first one is a monologue delivered by Damon which was in the original script of Clerks relating Star Wars with organized religion. The other thing is this amazing dialogue between Affleck and Damon in some sort of parking garage. All I have to say is, wow, very powerful.

Prepare thyself.

Your pal,

Then there is this report from the flying monkey...

I just got back from Kevin Smith at OSU. What a great time. Kevin stayed till 4:00 a.m. signing autographs and doing pictures. With him, he brought 10 min. of Dogma footage. Harry I just have to tell you, if this is a peice of things to come then I can't wait. It was pre-editing copy, but it was some of the funniest things KEVINS done yet. We saw all the Main Characters. We even saw the shit monster, wich buy the way is not CGI, it is a costume, but still really good looking. We saw Rickman as glorious as ever. Then we got to see and here the first song for the Dogma soundtrack. Ready for this, Silent Bob singing the Fat Albert theme, (Kevin Actually does sing it), with lyric interpratation by Jay. Everyone was rolling in the ailes. I can't wait to see the whole picture. We also saw a scene with Alanis Morrisette not, and I repeat not playing GOD. So, I don't know whats up with that, but Kevin refused to tell us who is.

Here is the low down of the Q & A.

It was only mentioned to Kevin about doing a Scooby Doo or Green Lantern Movie. This was about 6 months ago and nothing mentioned since. He said he would do it if Jason Lee played Shaggy.

He has a top secret, (not anymore), meeting with Warner Bros. today. (Can we say save Superman).

There is no music for DOGMA yet. Dogma won't be ready for Toranto or New York film Fes. Only Station X will be doing FX for Dogma. None by Peter Jackson. I took very good notes Harry, so all this is lagit from the horses mouth.

Just call me Generation Next
