Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.
Additional Information: This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-Class status: Referencing and citation: not checked Coverage and accuracy: not checked Structure: not checked Grammar: not checked Supporting materials: not checked To fill out this checklist, please add the following to the template call: <!-- 1. It is suitably referenced, and all major points are appropriately cited. --> |B-Class-1=yes/no <!-- 2. It reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies. --> |B-Class-2=yes/no <!-- 3.

This article needs an image (preferably free) related to the subject, such as a picture of the set or a film poster. A possibility for American films from before 1964 would be a screenshot from the trailer, as these are now in the public domain. Please make sure fair use is properly observed, or the image will be removed. See WP:Films MOS for image guidelines and assistance in uploading.

A plot summary needs to be added to this film article, or the current one needs to be expanded.

Please add more information about the cast and the crew, discussing the "behind the scenes" aspects of the production process, and giving insights into the casting and staffing where possible. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Style guidelines for more advice.

[edit] No View Askew actors?

Dubious. Unless someone can cite that he's actually said this, I'm liable to remove that statement. Smells awful fishy. --DodgerOfZion 07:34, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Distribution

I have removed the "distributed By" link in the info box for the time being, because Smith has said on his blog that he is not sure whether Harvey and Bob Weinstein will be interested in the flick. Though they have a good track record with Smith's films, I figured it would be prudent to remove it until there is an offician announcement. Dlmccaslin 18:35, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why Red State

Did Kevin Smith not do his research, or is he intentionally smearing? Fred Phelps is a Democrat. A very weird, bizarre, atypical Democrat, but a Democrat. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.70.100.173 (talk) 19:45, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

What part of "It's certainly not Phelps himself but it's very much inspired by a Phelps figure..." don't you understand?

Well Phelps is old, so maybe he's an old time conservative democrat? But anyway, is the reason this is titled red state because of the Phelps like figure and that only or is there an anymore in depth answer possibly in the plot?--66.66.212.182 (talk) 04:45, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
