a great film, very underrated.
kevin smith does right some superb dialogue!

*philosophy

I wouldn't have guessed that was Jason Lee... wow. I'm not particularly enthralled by Kevin Smith's subtle *cough* preaching, though... yawn.

^ Oh, I don't know, I'm pretty sure the all of heaven AND hell were made up by humanity. It's where we are now that is perfect...

all i can think is that i really want a beer. specifically an MGD.

Smith claims in An Evening with Kevin Smith (I think it was the first one; might be the second) that this movie was largely the result of him coming to grips with his own religious beliefs. The tribulations of Bethany are based on his own crisis of faith.

Makes it all a little more interesting, in my opinion.

Interesting. I just read Sandman - Season of Mists, which is a great graphic novel. This idea that the pain inflicted in hell is at the beckoning of the sinners and not the Devil appears verbatim in the novel. Eventually Lucifer gets tired of this masochistic drama and kicks everyone out of hell against much resistance. Kevin Smith is a big comic book aficionado. I wonder if he was inspired by novel.
