An Evening with Kevin Smith

Kevin Smith, filmaker, raconteur, chubby guy, funny fella, cocksucker.

Well, at least in the two DVD set "An Evening With Kevin Smith" which is a documentary about Kevin Smith answering questions at a couple of USAian universities.

What it shows is that Kevin Smith is very smart and very funny and that 'muurican uni students are very stupid.

Probably the best two bits are his tales about trying to write a script for "Superman" with Jon Peters (never happened, but hey, giant spiders in "Wild Wild West"!) and a documenatry with Prince.

Now, it's been a long time since I attended university, but have students become even more stupid? Because if my parents were paying $36,000 (US) a year as one says in the movie, I'd want some result for my dosh. Though KS does point out that neither Martin Scorsese or Woody Allen would be asked such stupid questions.

For the most part, Kevin is really funnuy, the students are really stupid, and there's even an appearance by Jay. Plus cell phone stunts! I guess too late I should warn you most of this four hours consists of dick and fart jokes.
