He invited potential buyers and distributors to come to Red State, gathered them in a room, then shit on their entire system, shitting on studios, shitting on release platforms, shitting on spending money to get people to see your film.
Like anyone will EVER work with that guy again on the studio/distribution side of things, lol.
Red State was already a terrible awful unreleasable film... and then Kevin Smith used it to explode any chance he has of working with studios and distributors ever again!
Remember in cartoons, when Elmer Fudd would point the gun at Bugs Bunny, then Bugs would stick the carrot into the end of the gun, and the gun would go off in Elmer Fudd's face? In this situation, inexplicably, Kevin Smith is both Elmer AND Bugs.
