I've never liked Kevin Smith. He's written a couple of decent gags in his movies, but beyond that, he's just not funny. And definitely not nearly as funny as he thinks he is. so the idea of him doing a horror movie has me completely unable to give a shit. Oh, and Mr. Disgusting, you know he's gonna try and flip this back on the fans if the "gimme money" idea flops, and make the fans out to be the assholes, right? He'll continue to be some visionary director/writer, while the fans just let him down. (waaaaah) "why won't anyone let me make my movie? (end crytalk voice)

"It’s so fucking vicious and nasty and mean and stark and it’s not funny... It’s this weird fucking dark little seventies horror movie…that nobody wants to make.” Horrible run on sentence. As much as I don't mind rants but have good sentence structure at least. Sheesh.

This wasnt Smith's idea, a FAN suggested this to him a few months back.

It is infuriating to ME that anyone would be offended by it. The guy doesn't have millions of dollars with which to finance a movie. Just because he has toys and merch doesn't make him enormously wealthy. Clerks II cost $5m, and how much do you think he got paid? I saw him at a Q+A in October and someone asked him what his net worth was, and he said it was "well below $10 million dollars". So, the budget of this proposed movie is $5 million, and you're just telling him to front it? Unless your guy is Bill Gates, you generally don't see one single person putting up all of the cash to make a movie. Whatever. I really hate the way the fanboy community has lashed out at Kevin Smith for almost no reason. Don't like his movies? Don't see 'em. Just ignore him and move on with your life. The people that want to see Red State can consider paying for it. And, you know, this system, if it works, might help smaller films from independent directors get made in the future. If it was someone other than Kevin Smith asking for this money, I think people might be more receptive.

lol Mr.Douchebag doesn't get paid off for Kevin Smith shit like he does for H2 and twilight garbage.

If i had the money i would donate some to him, but times are bad. I am a big fan of his films & keep hearing about this flic. I hope he does make it some day i am curios on what it will be like.

i hate kevin smith.

Do you live in some kind of delusional world where directors pay for their own movies all the time? Surely there is no such thing as a producer. You know, someone who finances a movie. Why else would the trailers for 9 & District 9 be plastered with the names Tim Burton & Peter Jackson? Neither of them made those movies, but they helped support the people who did.

Overrated hack.Any jack ass that makes a whole film over the joys of a day at the mall should not be taken seriously.

how much profit do i make back on my investment?

Id like to kick his ass Bloody Disgusting style in front of the crowd at its premiere... pay my bail and Ill do it!!!

Thats silly. I can understand Mr BD being upset, and I can also understand not caring.

kickstarter.com ...it's actually a great idea for independent filmmakers.

and not to nit-pick. but the dude is balding and does not have a mullet. but ya know...whatever.

This is offensive. In the middle of the worst financial emergency since the great depression? Fuck that

P.S. Bloody-disgusting, why are you not covering Serbian Film? This is going to be the most brutal, fuck-your-face film since the golden era of horror, 1970's italian films. Pick it up, man. Looks crazy good!

I'm pretty indifferent when it comes to Kevin Smith, but I find it pretty funny that Mr. Disgusting can rant and rave about shit like this, but will take whatever pocket change studios throw his way to hype garbage like whatever cinematic turd Rob Zombie has shat out most recently. Prostitutes need to get paid, right Mr. Disgusting?

The fans who pay money should be able to go see the movie for free.

That was a really crap blog, could they not even be arsed to change from the generic Kubrick theme?

Fuck Kevin Smith !!! Firstly, the guys a hack. Secondly, he makes movies for 12 year old kids who get excited when they hear the word 'fuck' over and over. Stay away from our genre and stick to making unfunny movies about douchebags in New Jersey.

droidguy1119, well stated. Smith makes small movies that never do well in terms of box office - something the studios know - so he doesn't make a whole lot, and I'm certain he's not rolling in bills. I've been hearing about him trying to make this flick forever and just not being able to get anyone behind it. Now, I'm a fan of his work, but I honestly don't care enough to donate ... however, I don't begrudge him using this method to gain financing. At the same time, I do agree with Demented D that the people who do kick in some cash should get something in return: a free DVD voucher when it's released, a free movie ticket, hell, even an autographed headshot or a certificate saying they donated ... something. Either way, I hope he's successful with this, and I'll go see the movie when it's done.

Kevin Smith has a mullet? I'm pretty sure that is a fake extension he wears for the Silent Bob character...because when I saw him in person, it was just like above WITHOUT a tail.

This guy's movies suck dick. Let's not kid ourselves. Clerks was kind of funny, but that's it.

What a childish and immature post. Its more of a rant than anything else. No wonder no one takes you seriously disgusting, all you do is post stupid fucking "stories" and then bitch about stuff like your 9 years old. "Oh rob zombie wouldnt give us promo stuff for halloween so halloween 2 is going to suck" or "I fucking hate uwe boll he is a fucking idiot, his movies suck, he should be banned from making anymore.......Oh hell mr boll I get to interview you now? Wow your just so awesome, Im sorry Im having problems talking with your balls bumping against my chin". See what I just did? Looks like a brat typing doesnt it (it is because thats what you did)? And your the one supposedly running this place how do you think it looks to your readers? Even cinema suicides little site jabs at you for being an idiot, wonder what the others really think. Honestly kevin smith doesnt make blockbuster movies so putting up millions of his own isnt a smart and he said he would match what he fans matched, I didnt take it myself as him begging people for money or acting like an asshole. He just really really wants to make this movie and is doing what he can to get funding.

Uh, you have your facts wrong, Mr. Disgusting: Toyota is a foreign corporation--they didn't qualify for the "handout." And it's "Anyway, read on..." not "anyways."
