Absolutely. I've been a fan of Kevin Smith since Clerks was released on the big screen back in 94. I've seen every flick he's ever did or appeared in and I was also lucky enough to be on hand for the taping of "A Threevening With Kevin Smith".

He's a good guy that tells it how he sees it. I love the fact that his films are dialogue-driven, as opposed to endless oodles of CGI and other special effects. While I'm very proud of him for taking a stand against Southwest for their atrocious behavior, I'm also proud to say I'm a fan of the man behind the reputation he's built for himself. The world could use more folks like Kevin Smith.
