That. Was such. A good. Movie.

Granted, the languge was, uhm, not my style. And the subject matter was...awkward? I SO should have seen that comming, from Leslie's Werewolf character...Why is it always the cute ones, dam nit? But it was a really good movie. Really good.

And it had Jay and Silent Bob! ^_^ Poor Banky. Poor, poor Banky. All he wanted was his friend. Uhm...right. ^_-

I'm rather upset on how it turned out. She was right to do as she did. In an odd way, I can completely relate to every last character in that move (except maybe everyone's favorite stoner...).

I must say, though, it's a DAM good thing she didn't go for it -- Banky's not the type-a guy I'd want to see in that, uhm, position....riiiiiight......

I feel bad for not watching these in order. Mall Rats, then Chasing Amy (Poor, poor Silent Bob) -- next it's almost inevitable that I should see Dogma - the movie which I must see but it's undeniable I'll be offended. It's only a movie, it's only a movie, it's only a - what the Eff?! That's not what it's like! Pretty dam close, I'll admit, but you've got it all wrong.

"Brenda?" "Dick."
"...I figure I'll save him the effort..."
"A skimmer IS a sailboat."
"It could get wild here - a nun just called a small child a...."

"I finally had something personal to say."

TOLD YOU!

Now you see why that's the BEST movie. ^_^ It's so immensely touching, especially if you know Kevin Smith's backstory to it. ::bawls:: I break down every time the opening chords of "We 3" start up, 'cause I know the movie's over and there will never be resolution further than that (exception is the crap they stuck at the end of JSBSB...moof).

But I'm glad you saw it. Even with more flagrant use of Eff than every other Kevin Smith movie combined, it's still the best movie...so very, very beautiful. Favorite part of it is still the line that sums it all up: "It's not who you love, it's how." ::melts::

And I actually wouldn't be too worried about being offended by Dogma...Kevin Smith IS Catholic, for God's sake, and he's very well studied on Catholicism. Just keep an open mind and realize that most of the movie is just conjecture and humor, and you should do fine.


...still wanna play Joice. ^_-
