Dogma Commentray Track....

I have had the DVD since it came out and I just got around to
listening to the commentary tracks and what the **** is up with all of
the bleeping? I know about the fallout with Miramax and I assume that
is the film company that keeps getting bleeped but they even bleeped
peoples names and once or twice the names of other films, what the
hell was so bad between Miramax and Smith that he could not even
mention the titles of their other films? Also where is that Docu that
they say is on the DVD that unless it's an easter egg I can not find.

Because Miramax has distanced themself from the film (due to the
protesters, not anything Smith did) and doesn't want to be associated
with it. IIRC, Smith and Miramax are still on good terms: they went
on to release J&SBSB (through Dimension) and (I think) are the
distributers for Jersey Girl.

It's not on the Dogma DVD, it eventually got slapped onto another View
Askew title (from one of his acolytes, NOT one of Smith's films).
Check the Askew website to find out which one.

Smith et al said some less than complementary things about Linda
Fiorentino; obviously Columbia thought that they were defamatory and/or
wanted to work with Ms Fiorentino again, so had them censored.

It was also removed from the DVD by Columbia due to its content. It is
to be found on the DVD of a dreadful, dreadful movie about some
alcoholic clown, made by one of Smith's legion of talentless fanboys,
released by Lion's Gate. It was so awful I've wiped its name clear from
my memory.
