He Openly Admits to Liking Degrassi
The only thing worse than Degrassi are the Teen Nick Degrassi: The Next Generation commercials. Smith is a grown man who watched a PBS produced show and mistook it for Masterpiece Theatre. Everyone has likes but Degrassi is an example of Smith abusing his star status and affiliating himself with his likes. Much like his comic book obsession (which will be discussed later) he needs to force himself into the world like he’s the foremost expert. No he’s not an expert, he’s just a superfan that affiliates himself with things he likes without actually contributing anything. JJ Abrams likes science fiction and made an awesome Star Trek film, JJ Abrams likes Star Wars and will without a doubt do everything he can to make an awesome Star Wars film, JJ Abrams likes TV and made several awesome genre defining TV shows. Kevin Smith likes Degrassi and makes a cameo, Kevin Smith likes Indiana Jones and makes a “No Ticket” joke in Dogma (1999), Kevin Smith likes comics books and writes for Green Arrow (cough lame cough). DC must have read the script for Superman Lives and knew better than giving him any important DC Universe characters.

It wouldn't come as a surprise if this was how he wanted the character designed during his writing stint with the emerald archer. |
Who casts Nicholas Cage as Superman? Granted, that was more Tim Burton’s mistake but the inspiration for such a bad casting choice was based off Smith’s script which involved a dead Superman that doesn’t fly and has fighting polar bears.
“But Stan Lee was in his film Mallratts (1995), and Chasing Amy (1997) was about a comic book writer, that clearly shows he knows the comic world.” Stan Lee however awesome he might be is not a rich as people think he is and will ride a dead dolphin while wearing a pink tutu for the right price. The comic book industry pays absolute crap to its writers, artists, and creators. Lee much deservedly needs the money and would totally do a film about playing himself being a nice old man. Chasing Amy was just one of many outlets to continually degrade women. “Gasp” you say? Think about it though.
