I'm hoping it goes all Sandler family comedy. The characters from Mallrats dragging their kids off their computers and phones and taking them to the mall. We get goofy things like them buying Heelys and falling down an escalator. A rant about how Sweetest Day is a con.

It's going to be hilarious if his daughter eventually takes up directing and surpasses her father in skill and know-how at a young age. Kevin would be so pissed. "You can't be a young darling indie director if you actually know the camera lens names! What the gently caress! I have to go do a 3 hour blog about this to receive emotional validation from my fan."

Yeah, Harley Quinn Smith actually growing up to make good movies would probably be a net win for everybody. It probably won't happen, though, because she's a chick and her father is notorious hack Kevin Smith.

I don't think it would be that surprising if Kevin's child was better, if she chose to become a director. I don't think that kind of thing is completely without precedent either. If you ignore his '70's output (And that's a massive thing to ignore), I think one could make the argument that Sofia Coppola has a better track record as a director than Francis Ford.

All she has to do is be stronger in the fundamentals of filmmaking and she'll be better. I think it's more if she chooses the writer/director route over acting or some other profession.

Sexism is pretty much industry-wide. Even if she goes the indie route, she's gonna find it wicked hard to get any kind of serious production/distribution funding. Possibly she could just go to daddy for money, but that relates to part two of my point.

Also, chicks are icky and have cooties.

His wife actually suggested it, apparently. If she hated it she could have just went by Harleen, which is a real name, though.

I wasn't telling anybody to commit suicide. I was saying somebody should commit suicide, in a completely indirect context.

But what if I told them they should kill themselves in a funny way? Like stand on a sidewalk, put a novelty gun to their head so that when they pull the trigger, a flag that reads "BANG" comes out, and then they laugh agreeably, backing right out into traffic as a bus comes along.

I apologize for not being funny RE suicide. Here are some funny or, at least, entertaining things RE suicide:

Bill Burr's Helicopter bit from I'm Sorry You Feel That Way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uZSI9s5z7c

Now that we've established what people funnier than Kevin Smith can do with suicide, let's see what a better filmmaker can do with the same subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-JCQep-H3Y

Finally, just in case any of you is considering suicide, take it from notorious awesome guy Freddie Mercury, and don't do it. (The alternative is to just have sex with Freddie Mercury which, honestly, doesn't sound like a bad proposition, since he wasn't even HIV positive at the time, and he's Freddie "Love Kills" Mercury.): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dn2z19QnEfQ

Or, if you're dead set on killing yourself, and just need some words of encouragement, have an angry, tattooed British rear end in a top hat screaming at you to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pGVNeafe6k

Or, be lulled off to sublime death by party people favorite, Andrew W.K.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-oDol2ENmU

I would like Smith's podcasts more if he didn't smoke quite so much pot and he was less crudely sexual. I know that's his shtick these days, but it's such a rut that the only way he can compliment something is to compare it to an orgasm. I enjoy his "Batman" podcast, especially when Marc Bernardin is cohosting, but goddamn Smith can be one note in how he describes things.
