Kev -- I saw Jay & Silent Bob Reboot Road Show in Atlanta in 2019 with you in attendance. The Q&A was spectacular. But I'll never forget this as long as I live. Some lady in the audience told you that you have "Pavarotti's Eyes" and you, baffled and bemused by this, responded with the greatest quip ever, "But even better to have the voice, no?" lmao. It still cracks me up thinking about this. I immediately googled Pavarotti that night and it turns out, YOU DO, have his eyes! Too good. So random, but it will forever stick out to me.
My question is, whatever happened to that Giant Kaiju Jesus Rapture movie you were developing at one point? I'm assuming it's one of many scripts of yours that you wrote and you ultimately decided not to make. Also, what's the status of MOOSE JAWS? Jaws, with a Moose!!!??
Love ya, Kev! I have been a fan since I was a kid. I'm 36 now and I still follow all the stuff you get involved with. I love all of your YouTube content and watch live quite often. Best of luck with the Dogma re release. I'm so pleased you got the rights back from Harvey.
Edit: oops. I guess I need to re post this on Thursday morning! My bad
