Dogma 2???
Posted on Tuesday, November 29, 2005
First Clerks 2, and now a possible Dogma 2? While I have serious reservations about a second Clerks movie, a second Dogma movie seems slightly more plausible. Check out what Kevin Smith has to say about the subject on his View Askew message board.
"Ever since 9/11, I have been thinking about a sequel of sorts. I mean, the worst terrorist attack on American soil was religiously bent. In the wake of said attack, the leader of the "Free World" outed himself as pretty damned Christian. In the last election, rather than a quagmire war abroad, the big issue was whether or not gay marriage was moral."
One problem I'm seeing with his ideas for a new movie... "the Last Scion would be at the epicenter of it. And she'd have to be played by Alanis." This poses a problem... Would the new movie take place 25-30 years into the future? We left the Dogma story with Bethany and her immaculately impregnated belly. If Alanis will play the Last Scion, we have a pretty big time conflict.
"Scary thing is this: the film would have to touch on Islam. And unlike the Cathloic League, when those cats don't like what you do, they issue a death warrant on yer ass (see Rushdie)."
