Genre Hunk of the Week 4/1/08: Kevin Smith

[auntiehill]

This writer/actor/director/lecturer/film critic is a self-proclaimed genre fanatic. He has lent his voice to animated features, such as Doogal, Superman: Doomsday, TMNT, and has had small parts in films such as Daredevil, Southland Tales and Die Hard 4. He is best known, of course, for his alter-ego character Silent Bob, who has appeared in Clerks 1 & 2, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, Scream 3 and what many people consider his best film, Dogma (which he also wrote and directed). He is also the creative consultant for the genre television show, Reaper, and directed its first episode. His lecture series, in which he talks about his films and answers random questions from the audience, was released on DVD and became an instant best-seller, in An Evening with Kevin Smith, vol 1 & 2.

So, just in time for April Fool's Day, we have our first Chunky Hunk of the Week.

i thought this was the *other* Kevin Smith. who's dead...

 

[Ethros]

I would have thought people would prefer Mewes more

Watch out for Smith's bleeding cock

 

[auntiehill]

Nah. Smith is much more cuddly. In a sarcastic and vulgar kind of way.

Don't forget to vote!

 

[PKTrekGirl]

I don't know these guys at all, I like the other guy better. What's his name?

 

[auntiehill]

Kevin Smith's partner in crime is Jason Mewes, his best friend and co-star, who apparently even lived with Kevin in his LA home. Kevin has said that he feels responsible for keeping his best pal employed. Mewes has done time for pot and heroin possession, if I recall correctly.

In my book, Smith is the real talent (as he created the roles and directed the films), and far more lovable.

Happy April Fools!

 

[auntiehill]

I thought you'd appreciate it.

Oddly, I thought a lot of the guys on the board would rush in and vote for him.

I thought you'd appreciate it.

Oddly, I thought a lot of the guys on the board would rush in and vote for him.

Well, he is a fuzzy man-peach and I would like to touch him 'pon the knee.

Nah, not really. But I do think he's all kinds of coolness for doing what he does and being a witty furball.

 

[Skywalker]

Haha, now this is an April Fool's gag.

 

[Caprica_Six]

Well I think he's very attractive. Love a guy with a good sense of humour

 

[Aragorn]

Kevin Smith? Who's next week -- Vern Troyer?

 

[Joy]

Despite the date, I'm voting seriously. I went with "thumbs sideways". He's certainly no hunk, but he's cute in his own adorable way.

I'll say one thing... most of the GHOW guys probably wouldn't be secure enough to photograph their wife for Playboy.

 

[WillsBabe]

It worries me. I do occassionally find him vaguely attractive. I think I need my wheels tracked!

 

[Ohappydagger]

The hair and the beard would have to go first, but I'd say sideways.

 

[DAK]

Went with thumbs down. Sorry, just not seeing any hunkiness. His friend has nice hair though.

 

[RJDiogenes]

Oddly, I thought a lot of the guys on the board would rush in and vote for him.

Your wish is my command. How can any girl not love a self-proclaimed genre fanatic?

My husband listens to a podcast that he does and he is a funny mofo!!

I mean, we've seen both Clerks (admittedly I didn't like either one of those that much but it was all filmed in the area where my husband grew up so he enjoyed pointing stuff out to me), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (one of the funniest movies I've ever seen), etc. and they are hilarious but as a person like on the podcast or when he does those Q&A things he is the funniest motherfucker around!!

 

[Kitty Worrier]

Thumbs down.
