KPCS: Kevin Smith

[@Dougdenslowe714]

I could listen to Kevin Smith talk for the rest of my life. What a cool dude.

[@noamgonen6243]

Kevin Smith, you da man. potty mouth but honesty like no other and humility and kindness packaged with a big heart. Love ur movies, they're timeless.

[@michaelmattice4986]

The great thing about having Kevin Smith as a guest for a 2 hour interview, is that you only need 2...maybe 2 1/2 questions!:)

[@koufonyc7639]

michael mattice sometimes one q is enough :-)

[@michaelmattice4986]

To Shea(though I am a Yankee fan...Plus Shea is gone so...:)

[@DownThePieRateHole]

And he doesn't actually answer it by the end of a few hours.

[@lwaves]

I would say that the researcher and interviewer isn't doing their job well enough if they have to ask Kevin Smith more than two questions. :-)

[@Marimba2002]

D him@@michaelmattice4986 rgrg

[@SelfXmusic]

I honestly think that Kevin Pollak is the best interviewer I have ever seen. Not only does he know almost everything about his guests (also props to his research team) but he understands their way of thinking, he listens and has obviously a lot of fun. Plus he's a very funny dude; always loved him in movies! He is insightful, perceptive and makes the conversational room for his guests to play around in and feel at home. I'm almost always sad, when an episode ends! I love this show so much! Thank you Kevin, Jaime, Samm and the rest of the crew for this truly entertaining and also informative chat show! You are the best!

[@SelfXmusic]

Also Kevin Smith is brilliant, funny, TALENTED! (yes I believe in talent) and fucking smart. He's just likeable and cool. I would love to chill out with him someday. One of the best episodes!

[@mistrcoffe]

One of my fave things about Kevin as an interviewer is that he lets the guest answer the questions, until they are done. He doesn't try to spit half their answer out to impress or get a gag in to steal the laugh. Some others on networks could do note taking.

[@utuberzanz]

SelfXmusic u clearly haven't seen nardwuar then

[@michaelbreidenbach2834]

Watch the Bill Hader episode. Hilarious!

[@adams1458]

up there with Stern & Adam Carolla but also there are ALOT of refreshing podcasts out there and the hosts are always nice and prepared, TV & Radio are dying mediums in communication.

[@alexsmith9617]

One of my favorite people on the planet! Nice work K! Your interviewing talents are awesome. K.Smith ,as always , is a fascinating, down to earth character. Fantastic show!

[@dopilus]

Mallrats is easily one of my favorite films. Kevin was just ahead of his time, man.

[@a0me]

45:17 Unexpected impression is on point.

[@DilutedGenius]

Kevin is a true story teller, just look at how expressive he is with his hands. The sheer wit as he answers to the questions without a moments hesitation. Shows how sincere he is. Great man.

[@kylecarson5723]

YES! How Kevin described his role in red state is exactly true, his presence does relax you and when his characters ever do get taken "out" you are immediately trapped in the story and have to know why his character died.

[@flamehand3713]

I just watched this interview a second time, completely golden.

[@TheSeantrepreneur]

I had to post the David Mamet quote from around 1:09 on facebook because it resonated so much with me and the monologue that Smith does about Creation vs Destruction. Great stuff. Polluck really is excellent at pulling wonderful things from his guests. Love this show.

[@stevejonas5572]

Kevin Smith has a genuine appreciation for his work that is infectious. I don't agree with his political or religious views (most decisive in human interactions). I am still a fan for sure, an honesty and excitement about him that even if he tells a story that I fundamentally disagree with will watch or listen to. He comes from a real place that I actually respect, more so than just talking points.

[@timmityok8722]

You can definitely respect someone without necessarily agreeing with everything they believe.

[@contactkeithstack]

@@timmityok8722 yup. Clint Eastwood is like that for me.

[@tjtampa214]

Really enjoyed this. Great advice by the 2 Kev's. Great stories by great storytellers. Thx. guys. 👍

[@CaptainMaakasu]

This was a amazing episode, love how open Kev is about everything!

[@yaronlanger]

By now I've heard kevin talk about his movies and how much he loves them waaaaaaaa@aaaaay more than I've actually seen them

[@OdinsDadd]

Kevin Smith is amazing.

[@GeekFurious]

When you get two titans of gab together, you know it's going to be epic.

[@markgarcia8884]

every podcast Kevin go on he kills it very humble guy and is making$ doing what he likes weather people like it or not it makes him happy.

[@Neverbetred]

This is great. I love Kevin Pollack since I saw him do "Stop with the kicking!" Need him back in crime movies. Usual Suspects is still an all time favorite of mine. And his work with Reiner is always gold.

[@TryMyMartini]

I started to watch this, then thought "Oh, maybe I should watch the older one first!" and checked it out. Listened to about 30 seconds of the sound and video quality, and came back. I'll wait for the Digitally Remastered ™ version.

[@stumblyninja1422]

Kevin Smith your an amazing inspiration!

[@16vPete]

By far one of the Top 3 podcast interviews ever!

[@christopheredwards5337]

ill watch or listen to anything kevin Smith does. Just a nice guy and modest. You don't have to like all his movies but oh well. His humor isn't for every one. As a critic the way he speaks about movies and comics is epic. He can make you want to see or read something because he's a fan. He's modest as hell. Just because your funny doesn't make you a comic. No such thing as failure after mallrats failed. He speaks great words of wisdom we all can relate to.

[@CLuvTV]

Kev says no one ever asks him about his first KPCS apperance..........I discovered KPCS because of that episode

[@fabriziobettoni2547]

LOL....me too...that's how I got hooked on KPCS, and have now watched almost all 301 episodes.

[@ChiriKain]

i just discovered kpcs with this episode.

[@CLuvTV]

full circle lol

[@CLuvTV]

Serious Fabrizio? I'm a huge KS fan and so I'll type in Kevin Smith interview and watch em all. Thats how I discovered KPCS, George Strombolopulus, podcasts, and even Comic Con lol

[@ForbinColossus]

@37:42 Mr Pollak talks about the 20th anniversary of 'A Few Good Men'. A role that changed my life" Great story!

Man, this guy talks. I don´t particularly like his films, but I like the way he´s invented himself in Hollywood. And he is very funny.

[@scottgordon899]

try hollywood babylon.

[@KingRenoBand]

Hollywood Babble-On It's on ITunes.

[@bantharadio8960]

babble the F ON! all the little sections his got on the show are your awesome, the last one with Neeson is spectacular

[@rudeboyzippo]

Even by Smith's own admission, he's not a very good filmmaker, but at heart, he is a great storyteller. I have followed him since the beginning of his career, and he is the same good hearted, funny guy, he has been since the beginning. He is very genuine, even after Hollywood, and I support his movies to support him. If you are not a fan of the films, check out his podcasts, his speaking engagements, or one of the many comic books he's written... Hell, send him a message on twitter, he's one of the few celebrities who will answer his fans. I write a web comic, and he's been kind enough to read it, and send me words of encouragement. I started the comic years ago, after hearing him give a speech about how everyone should get off their ass and create something, because everyone has a unique story to tell.

[@contactkeithstack]

@@rudeboyzippo I'm the same way. I watch his films, not because I like them in themselves so much (except for dogma, jay and Bob), but because I like his comedy and general positivity in general.

[@briceandreasson7046]

man I love this guy. would love to meet him one day. Genuinely interesting.

[@OniShogunXIII]

Kevin Pollak is fuckin hilarious and awesome as an actor in every movie I've seen him in. I love the grumpy old men movies, indian summer, of course cop out, and so many more. I just found out about this show and will be watching all past episodes and subscribing now. Thanks for the great show and amazing Kevin on Kevin action.

[@brokenstyx]

an awesome two hours, thank you!

[@Nicoyutub]

I like that he gives advice even towards a hypothetical guy that hates him. He's a genuinely nice guy.

[@littleripper312]

Everyone loves Kevin when he's on set. Any set he's been on the crew always rave about him.

[@leob4403]

Not Bruce Willis ...

[@theshirehighlander7292]

Great guest loved him on JRE...

[@thugperformancereview6405]

hosw is this the first time I've seen your channel..... awsome man awsome!

[@Neverbetred]

"Expectation is a resentment waiting to happen" - priceless

[@andrewlemay479]

Can we start a petition to get Kevin Pollack a Columbo reboot?

[@00BillyTorontoBill]

hehe.. im for that ! He'd be great.

[@carpetlayenful]

Awesome video. Double Ebert thumbs up.

[@cohenthebarbarian8274]

Great Show

[@sXeblues]

Two of my favorite entertainers, just jammin'. Muy excellante!

[@stuartfitzsimons2786]

Outstanding!

[@tonys.2216]

I really like Kevin Smith. I don't understand why he's always so self-deprecating. I get not having an ego but he just comes off as having low self-esteem by how often he takes shots at himself.

[@mitchengel4542]

You know you are watching a GREAT Fantasy show when Rick Worthy appears. He's a bona fide. Fantastic actor who creates amazing characters.

[@chinaman393]

kevin's enthusiasm is always inspiring and makes me actually act on my creative impulses thank you kevin. i got up and started filming something i've been slacking on before this even finished. and he really is not a shitty director like he says or mediocre (i know he said something else) I'm sure he knows this himself as he has seen his own movie Red State. If anyone has seen that and says he cannot direct (even kevin, or especially!) i'd like to hear why

[@stevenotjackramsey]

"Expectations are resentments waiting to happen"....sounds like somebody has been to a few AA meetings.

[@MadBrosMedia]

Kevin we love your show. We hope you do our show when you come back to the parlor live :)

[@schristy3637]

He is Super gracious,I am what I am kind of dude, and just seem like a person you would love to know.I wish I did. LOVE FATMAN on BATMAN,he and Marc Bernardin,ROCK

[@isaiahsreviews]

Damn if I was Ben Affleck I'd be singing Kevin's praises 24/7 NO WAY I'd dismiss Kevin's movies like that 😠 Kevin Smith live is on my list for sure 👍😀 One day!

[@pillar81]

Isaiah's Reviews Yeah, it got me irked that Ben would say that shit to Kev. No matter how much Kev wants to downplay it, it felt like a kick in the nuts to me.

[@joemckim1183]

Samm you missed a chance to challenge Kevin to a Schmoedown.

[@daleravic]

The fall out with Bruce Willis is sad. The way he spoke about him when they did Die Hard he was like a kid meeting his idol. He had a great time with him. Then a complete 180.

[@VicariousAir]

Kevin Pollak... Nicest most humble guy in the world. Met him while filming "A Few Good Men"... I stupidly made the comment "He was lucky to be working with the likes of Tom Cruise, Kiefer Southerland, Demi Moore etc.." I was a young Marine being used as an extra in the movie. I always wished I would see him again to apologize. After seeing the movie, I recognized him and for more than 25 years felt like a fool. If you read this, I couldn't be more sorry dude. Seriously, you are one of my favorite actors.

[@lancegoodthrust546]

I LOVE the KPCS episodes. But does anyone else miss their old setup with the black curtains? Also the sound wasn't as echoey. Still going to watch though.

[@darknessviking]

love these interviews kevin keep up the nice work try and get more name famous people here so more peopel discover your videos

[@kevinw712]

1:47:44 and cut to here right about the middle of August 2019, and I think we're roughly about 3 weeks out from when we got the debut of the official trailer for "Jay & Silent Bob Reboot" that Kev dropped, and well look at that, including one Mr Benjamin Affleck as Holden McNeil :) Yeah I doubt it's little more than an extended cameo (as was the Holden character even in J&SBSB, Affleck had much more screentime as "Real Ben Affleck" in that) but I previously hadn't had expectation of hope that Ben would've come back to be involved at all, and I would guess most fans didn't.

[@My-Name-Isnt-Important]

When I was 3 I watched the Carebears movie in a theater called 'Mugs and Movies.' You could have a meal while watching a film. It went out of business sometime after the Christmas Vacation film came out. The Alamo Drafthouse copied off of what others failed at, especially since they started in 97 long after the whole food and a film went out of style, which was popular in the 80s in some States in the US.

[@tadzeohorner-chbib4765]

Ben and Matt owe Kevin (smith) a thank you and sorry we're dicks for forgetting to thank you video on KZbin

[@t500010000]

Make a Gawd Damn superhero movie Kevin!

[@BurningRobotOil]

Oh wow! When you guys talked about filming at L&B in Brooklyn NY... I used to live a block or so from there, and when I heard Kevin was filming Cop Out there ("A Couple of Cops" according to the papers they had stapled around the neighborhood), I wanted to meet Kevin, and ask him for an interview for my show....but I was too chicken-shit, lol. My parents went, though, and snapped a few pics of Bruce Willis, funny enough.

[@squanchy666]

BATMAN IS HUNG FOR JUSTICE

[@NotownStunna]

HEY KEVIN YOU NEED TO TELL THAT FUCKIN KEVIN SMITH I FUCKING LOVE TUSK ITS A GREAT FILM!!! HES A GREAT DIRECTOR AND NEEDS TO QUIT DOWNPLAYING HIMSELF AND HIS WORK OR IMA SPANK THAT ASS. But seriously keep up the good work guys i'm diggin the show! KPCS and FATMAN ON BATMAN i watch religiously. Your both great at everything you do and you will always be relevant and influential to me and so many other people. (p.s. i know savitar is barry allen don't try and bullshit me)

[@thorkagemob1297]

Shane Silver bruh right savitar says future flash way too much like for real if he is anyone else they fucking got me lol and i agree Kevin downplays himself too much. He's an amazing director and it makes him an even better director cause he does what he wants to do doesnt conform to what others are trying to force him to do

[@gllyflower]

1:49:58 "I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real." The rest of that lyric is "So how can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?" Hmmmmmmmmmmm...

[@Nebuchadnezzar31]

36:00 to 50:00 is gold. Especially the anecdote of Don Rickles/DeNiro on the set of Casino

[@rossdiamondthief6627]

Can we please get a petition going to get an animated version of Kevin Smith/Tim Burton’s Superman starring Nicolas Cage

[@michaelmattice4986]

Watched all 201:45...GLADLY!!!:)

*AUGUST? ... YES!!!*

[@drowningin]

Alamo Draft house is great everyone apes the idea. But Alamo D.H. also does themes like playing the Back to the future trilogy with foods that fit the theme. Also trinkets and stuff you get to keep

[@Ranblv]

KS rocks. can't wait for the J&SB reboot.

[@xtraflo]

At least the sound works in this interview ..

[@mindyourbuisness8104]

What does the dude from Freaks and Geeks do on this show? Just curious loved that show

[@kamron_thurmond]

Dual Kevin's. "There can only be one" Duel Kevin's

[@Khethatipet]

Love the Ben Affleck story at 1:47:00. Early 2000s Affleck thought himself too big for Kevin Smith movies, late 2010s Affleck is starring in utter shit BvS. I hope he learned from that experience.

[@BranTheMan2PK]

yea cuz getting 15 mil for a movie you think sucked is the worst thing that could happen.

[@MacTheVicious1]

yeah, playing most iconic and popular superheroes in the world, in multiple films and getting paid millions for it really sucks...

[@armcollector6660]

Landing a role playing one of the most iconic characters of all time in a era where superhero movies are king is a dream for almost every actor working. U get paid a fuck ton of money and it usually goes on for several movies. Ur comment makes no sense at all.

[@connorshaw-case6030]

kevin talking about how people who hate him can use him to create things is one of the reasons no one can hate him

[@Ralph_Roberts]

I had no idea there was a possibility dicaprio and maguire could've done Good Will Hunting. If only there was a What If machine like in Futurama.

[@huntingtonparkway]

Interview Arsenio Hall or Anthony Anderson. Please

[@TheComicCoalition]

Yes Kevin Can Talk but I always find it interesting

[@waltersleestak2239]

+1 Casino story.

[@kevinw712]

I remember hearing that Good Will Hunting/William Goldman story way back in like late 1997/early 98, and it was the REALLY strong rumor that it was that Matt & Ben's original script had them laying heavily into the NSA storyline and making the rest of the story more action/thriller-oriented, but that Goldman came in and kiboshed that, and he rewrote like the entire 2nd half of the script, to what the movie ended up being. But no, as was the case so often in Hollywood, wasn't true at all lol

[@luxi378]

ok, so Yoga Hosers wasnt exactly my cup of tea, smith himself said he made it for 13 year old girls, so.. but i love the guy for just being real, in a world that is otherwise so fucking mcdonalds, i mean..

2nd try trying to finish this-- Kevin Smith is alot alot of BLOWhard----but kind of interesting @34:20 Kevin:"Modify Your Expectations" Jaime:"Expectation is a resentment waiting to happen" or 'Expectation is tomorrow's regret'
