Welcome to my Kevin Smith shrine!
Kevin Smith is an American filmmaker and producer. He is most well-known for his comedy films in the View Askewniverse, named after his production company, View Askew. But he has also written and directed a number of films outside of this universe and the comedy genre.
I became a fan of Kevin after seeing Dogma in 1999. The way he tells stories is very ~me~, combining a sense of humour with a good heart and some really well-written monologues. Some of his stuff is just straight up wacky, which I also really appreciate!
Kevin's (Film) Work
Clerks 1994 Comedy
Kevin's first film (and also the first in the View Askewniverse) about friends and convenience store co-workers Dante and Randall, and Dante's relationships.

Cop Out 2010 Action comedy
A non-View Askewniverse Kevin Smith buddy cop movie that feels so out of place with the rest of his work due to the fact he didn't write it. It's bad. Don't watch it.
Red State 2011 Horror/Thriller
Another non-View Askewniverse Kevin Smith film, but in a good way! It's about a group of teenage boys who get catfished into a situation involving a religious cult.

An animated adventure featuring Jay and Silent Bob from the View Askewniverse where they win the lottery and become crime-fighting superheroes.

Yoga Hosers 2016 Horror comedy
The second "True North" film about two teenage girls who work at a convenience store and, uh... Nazis. I don't know how else to describe it without spoiling.

Back to the View Askewniverse, Jay and Silent Bob need to travel to a fan convention to get the rights to their names back.

Other Work
Although my interest in Kevin's work is really just for his films, he's also a professional talker with numerous podcasts (hosted by his own podcasting network), a writer for other movies, TV shows and comic books; a comic book store owner, and an actor having made a number of appearances on projects that aren't his own.
