In the year 2002,
An Askew View: The Films of Kevin Smith was the first book to gaze at the cinema of one of New Jersey's favorite sons, the independent and controversial auteur of
Clerks (1994),
Mallrats (1995),
Chasing Amy (1997),
Dogma (1999) and
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001). Now, a full decade after that successful original edition, award-winning author John Kenneth Muir returns to the View Askewniverse to consider Kevin Smith's second controversial decade as a film director, social gadfly, and beloved media “talker.” From
Jersey Girl (2004) to the controversial
Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008), from the critically derided
Cop-Out (2010) to the incendiary and provocative horror film
Red State (2011),
An Askew View 2 studies the Kevin Smith movie equation as it exists today, almost two full decades after Smith maxed out his credit card, made
Clerks with his friends, shopped it at Sundance, and commenced his Hollywood journey. In addition to Kevin Smith's films,
An Askew View 2 remembers the short-lived
Clerks cartoon (2000) and diagrams the colorful Smith Lexicon.
