Title: Kevin Smith's New Film Is "Red State" About A Murdering Right-Winger. Seriously.
Post by: Cheebs on April 07, 2007, 10:59:52 AM
Kevin Smith has revealed the details on his next film which is a slasher/thriller. He says it will be called "Red State" and be about a crazy right-wing Christian who hates gays and goes on a murdering spree. He said the character is based partially on the extremist Baptist minister Fred Phelps(I think Phelps is isn't right-wing but hey kevin smith is making it about a right-winger so oh well). It's basically a "conservative exploitation" movie.  :lol


I can't believe he is calling it "Red State".  :lol

wow. What a clever yet tasteless title

It's probably going to have a lot of sarcasm and parody though, which could be cool coming from him. Although I've never seen Clerks lolz

I saw some of it on Comedy Central. I'm sure it was edited out the wazoo but there was one part that really made me laugh. Basically Damon and Affleck were on a bus and these two people were kissing. Damon asked them if they were married, and the dude said no; so Damon went on this huge religo-rant and proceded to kill them. Same thing happened in another scene where this company made this golden statue of some cartoon character and they killed everyone in the board room :lol

Because it's all about SIDES.  It's not about making the world a better place, it's about being RIGHT and being able to get in that witty smug last shot!

I'll be glad when all this Red State/Blue State Liberal/Conservative Hippy/Right Wing shit finally escalates to its inevitable boiling point, and all these extremists on either side give in to their natural impulses and start killing each other in the streets.  I'll watch the news every night and laugh like it's the best sitcom I ever saw.  Stop tip-toeing around each other with snarky comments, get down to the real dancing and shooting, and give me something good to watch on TV like a new Civil War, you fucking pansies.

A terrible film maker makes a terrible film?  I know I've criticized him for doing as much, but tubby bitch needs to stick to the funny observational movies.  Anytime he's tried to do anything that involves depth, like in Dogma or Chasing Amy, it's been absolutely shameful.  And lest us not forget his attempt at a "hollywood" romcom dramedy thing, which gleefully illustrated the fact that he has no idea how to direct or pace a mainstream movie.  Since he can't get something as cookie cutter as Jersey Girl right, I'm sure a thriller written and directed by him will be, well, let's just say if I were asked "thumbs up or train to Auschwitz" considering Kevin Smith, I'd have no problem letting him get vivisected.

I'm guessing they couldn't call it The Gipper without having David Arquette's family murdered by Republicans.  Which actually doesn't sound like a bad thing, really.

Patricia Arquette's hot though... well, I donno about now, but... she used to be. We should make a movie like Romeo and Juliet, only it takes place under the Hollywood fued between the Arquettes and the Sheens.

Well, I'm excited. Even though it's a thriller, it will still have to be dialogue heavy though to explain these political undertones, which could be a problem.

Fuck you guys. Kevin Smith is hilarious, and one of my favorite filmmakers. I want to see him take on another genre.

Chasing Amy was abysmal.  Not only did Silent Bob deliver a longwinded deus ex machina, but it was one of the dumbest in film history.  The movie has some funny Smith moments, but they are relegated to the first 20 or so minutes, after which it is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

That wasn't him stretching his talents, that was just him trying to make an easy buck by pandering.  :lol

I think the idea was to make a "critic-proof" schlocky romantic comedy starring (even if only in the first twenty minutes) the "hot" couple of the moment.  It backfired horribly...I remember him talking in interviews saying how he was done with Jay & Silent Bob and the whole New Jersey Askewniverse series of films.

Kevin Smith was two votes away to being nominated for best writer for Chasing Amy when it released. If there was 6 nominees instead of 5 that year Kevin Smith would have been nominated.

Smith said he was also eerily close to being nominated for best picture.  :lol

For Chasing Amy? TVC nailed it when he talked about the "deus ex machina" in that particular movie.  Smith doesn't know how to resolve conflict so that's what he does, he brings in an outside character to explain things to the protagonist and bring about some sort of resolution.  He's done it in Clerks, Dogma, Chasing Amy, Jersey Girl, Mallrats...every movie he's ever done.

It is based on her minus the bi-thing. Smith said he made that part up. They had a horrible break up and aren't close at all anymore(which is why she didn't star in dogma despite the fact he wrote it for her when they were together) so I don't see why he would lie. He bashed her a bit in the commentary.

She actually had stated in interviews that she was bi, though.  And she made a cameo at the end of Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, and Smith hyped her directorial debut last year, so I don't see how that doesn't qualify as the two of 'em being close.

The only funny possible outcome from this is when the Phelps family flies to the premier and thinks of new and "interesting" ways to attach words to "cigarillo". 

Like:

 "Chasing Faggy"  "State cigarillo"  "Jay and Silent cigarillo Strike Back"  "cigarillo Smith cause 9/11"  and maybe a classic like "Faggy cigarillo cigarillo cigarillo".

Kevin Smith loved the controversy of Dogma and he even protested the movie with a sign with some church group who didn't know who he was. He seems HOPEFUL that it will stir up controversy.
