A passion project that isn't worth seeking out

Kevin Smith has always tried to stay independent and experiments with different ways of releasing his movies. While I find that remarkable, I don't know if releasing this to a handful of buyers as a NFT is something he regards as pioneering or regrets. This movie still hasn't been released publicly, and as a long term Kev fan it took a lot of effort to find this. The NFT website says the owners can provide copies of this to anyone they want for free. I found the info on how to do this from someone on YouTube. I had to download a NFT program and extract it.So the movie itself: it feels like something Kev and Andy wrote over a weekend. It's not as unwatchable as people on Reddit were saying, there are some fun moments here but at times it crawls along.It has some fun cameos from Kev's old Clerks-era friends Jay and Ernie, his old podcast brother Ralph Garman who provides the best performance in this (as a subscriber to his Patreon podcast it's Ralph I was most excited to see), and weirdly Chris Jericho of all people who probably filmed his part in an hour and had a lot of fun doing so. It's admirable that Kev wants to give his daughter acting experience and support her career.Other than that, there's really no reason to track this down. Maybe it'll get released some day on Syfy or another streaming service, which is where Kev should've sold this to.

Short stories put together to make a movie Ending sucked

What a weird all over the place movie. I've been wanting to watch this for so long and that whole nft trash is awful. I don't know how Kevin smith stooped so low with the NFTs for this movie but at least he played it at his film festival which I attended. The idea is great for this movie but when it was chris Jericho's little story it kinda had nothing to do with killroy which was unfortunate and killroy popped up outta nowhere randy orton style. At parts this movie felt lazy but in the credits it said that Kevin worked on it with some college so what most likely happened is the college students each got their own killroy story and made it and then later Kevin smith slapped his name on it even though he probably didn't do anything. I legit thought this movie would be like tusk but unfortunately it's the cheaper version with a weaker weaker script. Very disappointing but at least the film festival that Kevin smith did was cool. Nov 30 22.
