You can’t rent this movie because Harvey Weinstein owns it and refuses to sell it to a studio or back to Kevin Smith.

Thanks for reacting to this! I'm a bit sad that nobody recognizes that god is Alanis Morissette anymore. She was huge in that time and somehow it made total sense when she was revealed.

I love the story of how Kevin Smith PROTESTED his own movie. Some religious group was at the theater and Kevin was asked to join them, and said..."sure" Press arrived and things got funny.

I love that Silent Bob quotes/references Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade by saying "no ticket" after throwing someone off of transportation.

George Carlin as a cardinal….an inspired choice. Every character is just perfect. Such a clever satire on Catholicism, but with a kind heart. A very Catholic satire of Catholicism

This is Kevin Smith's best film in my opinion. This is the movie that made the Westboro Baptist Church target Kevin Smith. Kevin ended up helping a bunch of kids get out of that Cult and helped them out financially after they left

This is a little story that Kevin Smith likes to tell about how putting the fear of Rickman into his friend Jason Mews inspired him to be a better actor: Dogma, though, we kept impressing on this cat, "You've gotta be topnotch. You are the strong back that's got to carry the movie. You've gotta be funny and on cue all the time. You gotta know your lines. You can't be shy... because we got real actors in the movie this time." "Not like Affleck?" "Not like Affleck." "Who?" "We got Alan Rickman." "Who the fuck's that?" "Alan Rickman. You know, from Die Hard, yippee-kai-yay?" "Bruce Willis?" "No. The other guy. Alan Rickman, he's the villain." "All right. So what?" "Alan Rickman is a British actor. And British actors fucking invented acting. They will chew the scenery around you. He won't put up for 'snoochie boochies' and shit like that. He needs you to be on and fucking topnotch. He's worked with the best. You can't let a dude like this down." As with all the other films, I rehearse with all the actors separately... and Mewes I start with by himself and then work him into the group. So I sit down with Mewes to start rehearsing. And he comes in, no script. I'm like, "Where's your script?" "I don't need it." "What?" "Just try me." So I start reading the lines that aren't Mewes'... and Mewes starts doing his lines without a script. I was like, "That's pretty good." We keep going, and he knows everything. "Did you memorize all your lines?" "Everybody else's too." "Bullshit!" "Try me." So I read Mewes' lines and he reads everybody else's lines. Without a fucking script. And I'm like, "What the fuck, what are you, Rain Man? What the fuck happened, dude? Why did you suddenly become a genius?" "I don't want to piss off that Rickman dude."

I laughed so hard in the theater when God showed up as Alanis Morissette.

This is my favorite Kevin Smith film. Sooooooo many great characters and dialogue. R.I.P. George Carlin and Alan Rickman.

Most of the movies after are made because Kevin Smith promised Jay that he would put him in other movies if he clean himself up and broke his drug addiction. So we have all the Clerks follow ups, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and some others because Jay got clean and got his life together. Jay and Kevin are just having fun with their brand of comedy and friendship and we are here to enjoy.

Casting Alanis Morissette as God was proof that Kevin Smith was brilliant.... casting a singer as a character who's voice will kill mortals is next level....

Fun fact - Matt Damon also played Loki in "Thor: Ragnorok" during the Play at the beginning of the movie.

Kevin Smith attended the opening, dressed in a sparkly red tux, with red horns on his head. His baby daughter, Harley Quinn Smith, was in his arms, dressed as an angel.

2 things. God was Alanis Morrisette. And Silent Bob speaking was also an Easter egg for Indiana Jones

This and Galaxy Quest are two of my favorite movies with Alan Rickman.

That nun was played by Betty Aberlin, who was one of the main cast members on Mister Rogers.

I watched this movie and "Being John Malkovich" at the cinemas only two weeks apart from each other, and both were mindblowing. I love "Dogma"!

The "no ticket" line is from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. He tosses a Nazi out of a zeppelin.

This movie taught me to wear hoodies underneath my jackets.

Still have my Dogma dvd streaming will not stop me from seeing this hilarious masterpiece

Such a good film, It's my favorite too I just love the way Kevin Smith writes dialogue. Also Alanis Morressette as God is hilarious and who doesnt love Alan Rickman, its just too many awesome things in one movie.

And God was played by Alanis Morissette

Love when you don't read the blurb & go in completely blind. You never know what you're walking into & it's great

Now that you've seen all the Kevin Smith movies up to DOGMA, I'm looking forward to you doing JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK: it's my favorite of his movies, and since it's essentially an hour-and-a-half in-joke for his fans, you'll understand it to its fullest now :)

If you haven't seen Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, there's a nod to that movie here. In that movie, Indiana Jones throws a nazi SS officer out the window of a zeppelin. To the passengers looking at him in shock, he says, "No ticket", at which point they all rush him to show him their ticket stubs. That's one of my favorite parts of the entire movie.

The answer was very simple but clever. Bethany’s answer “is as plain as the nose on her face.” That’s why she booped her nose.

There is a marvelous deleted scene with Azrael explaining hell. I'm always so bummed that it was removed, but you can watch it by searching for "Evil is an abstract"

This was one of the greatest movies ever. Great actors, comedians, great singer. Btw , it wasnt just a movie,it was a message. Be kind ,be humble and help one another. Listen and you will hear. 😉 Thx for taking the effort to highlight this movie. It means a lot.❤️

Thank you for reacting to this!! My all time favorite movie. Also, the woman playing the nun at the beginning was a regular on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, she played Lady Aberline in it.

Great reaction Mary Cherry! I think you followed better than other reactors because you make your comments quickly without talking over a lot of dialogue. It's one of the things that make you a great reactor!

I'm so glad you liked it. It's a brilliant script; full of provoking ideas, with humor to help package it better. Many couldn't get it but I'm glad you did

This is by far my favorite View Askew chapter, with Jay and Silent Bob Strike back as a close second. Thanks for reacting to this!

This movie has a special place in my heart. It is so smart, thought-provoking, and funny.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies. Kevin Smith has reported that unfortunately, Harvey Weinstein managed to get the rights from Disney/Miramax. Around the time the allegations were coming out about Harvey, Kevin made a couple offers to purchase the rights from him, but he wouldn't let them go. That's why it's not available to stream and almost impossible to purchase.

Thanks, Mary, for sharing your reaction to this.

I remember when this was filmed because I live very close to some of the locations. In fact, the restaurant where they get the tequila is still open and they have the movie poster hanging above the table where Alan and Linda sat.

This one has a very special place in my heart. Raised as a catholic, this movie leave me with so many questions. I become an atheist since. Thank you Kevin Smith for changing my life.

This is one of my favorite movies and it's unbelievable the Avengers Level Threat cast this movie has for being such an underappreciated gem.

Alanis Morressette as god was brilliant.

I love this movie. I own it on DVD. The cast is perfect with Chris Rock, Alan Rickman, George Carlin and Alanis Morissette.

😂 I can't believe you skipped the amazing, "We went through three Adams before we worked that out." 🤣🤣🤣

29:50 "Im going back to Wisconsin" lol love that line of many. Thank you for doing this film grew up on it and believe should be mandatory viewing. This and Romeo + Juliet

When Silent Bob says "no ticket" after throwing them off the train, that's a reference to a classic scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. You should definitely watch that if you haven't yet. Great reaction!

Always thought this was such a great choice to have Alanis Morissette play God, just seemed to work with the whole vibe of the movie

Technically, the content of the movie isn't the reason you can't rent or officially stream it anywhere, but I guess it kind of indirectly is. The movie was originally supposed to be released by Miramax in 1998, but Disney (who owned Miramax at the time) didn't want to be associated with it, so they refused to put it out. Then Harvey Weinstein bought the film outright and made a theatrical distribution deal with Lions Gate (who finally released the movie in 1999) and a home media deal with Sony. Both of those deals expired years ago, so the rights reverted to Weinstein. (The Sony DVD and Blu-ray releases are long out of print, but used copies are out there.) According to Kevin Smith, he's tried to buy the movie back, but Weinstein was asking an exorbitant price that he couldn't (and no one else wanted to) pay.

I'm so glad I own this movie on DVD.

I can't believe that you did not recognize Alanis Morrisette!

Thx for the reaction mary. This is definitely one of Kevin Smith's best movies, amazing cast and performances. My favorite is clerks 2, which I'm sure you will get to eventually.

I guess you can say I saw God since I went to an Alanis Morrissette concert two years ago. Great show.

Such a great film with a stellar cast. Thanks for the reaction

Love this movie. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is next!

The part where Jason Lee tells Silent Bob to take a shot, “call it a gift” is taken from The Howling where a werewolf gives a guy a free shot not being aware that the guy had silver bullets in his rifle.

The Cardinal, played by George Carlin, was one of the most outspoken Atheists of his time.

**grows horns** Mary: he's an angel!

Alanis Morressette is my favorite version of God.

Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back are my favorite Kevin Smith movies, and the only ones I'd watch again and again. They're hilarious and yet this one was very thought provoking. Janeane Garofalo!! She was one of my favorite 90's IT girls. I suggest her movie with Uma Thurman called THE TRUTH ABOUT CATS AND DOGS. If you've ever taken interpersonal communications classes then this movie serves as example after example of the study of it. It's also Janeane humor turned up, yet adorable. 😅

If you watch the scenes with George Carlin as the cardinal, you'll see that he has a band-aid on his ring finger. Kevin Smith said that he's wearing it because George Carlin's wife had recently died, and he couldn't bring himself to take off his wedding ring yet. And since a cardinal wouldn't be married, they had to cover it up for the movie.

I lol'd at her missing the indiana jones reference lol. "No Ticket!"

I love this movie so much, fantastic movie overall and everyone acting was on point!!!

When you are saying "Immaculate Conception" you actually mean the dogma of "Virgin Birth." It is a common error; Immaculate Conception is a different dogma stating that Biblical Mary was conceived without Original Sin (yet another dogma).

I went to a catholic high school and for my senior service project, I painted a mural in one of the school classrooms depicting moments in church history, ending with Pope Francis. I painted him doing the Buddy Christ pose from this movie and nobody noticed.

LOL! Loki's sneeze was a setup. 😂

So excited for this, one of my all-time fav movies!

George Carlin as a cardinal 😂

2:21 When the Cardinal was wiggling his hands and the the guitar sounds came out. Very Bill and Ted.

The "No Ticket" reference is great. Indiana Jones series is a must seen. 😂

Jason Mewes, who plays Jay was so worried about agreeing up in front of Alan Rickman he memorized the whole script in

This is my most favorite Kevin Smith movie (and I love all of them). It's so well written... funny and clever, and honestly IMO makes great points about religion and humanity. A+

This movie has been in my DVD collection for about 15 years & it's still good to drag it out occasionally to shock & amuse visitors.

Not sure if you're aware but Jason Mewes (Jay) is now a twitch streamer, his tag is 'jaymewes'. He streams games and occasionally has Kevin Smith on his channel.

Editing this must have been a nightmare, having to blank out all those f-bombs. And I've been wondering why Jay and Bob count as prophets for a long time. I think it's because, since they're present for every movie in this series, they're kind of like the narrators.

This movie is just....splendid.

you found this movie!!! well done! I had it on VHS .. well done!!

Love this movie, glad i have it on dvd still. Old kevin smith is so good! Clerks and dogma are two of the funniest movies ever imo.

I have a t-shirt with Jay & Silent Bob that says, “A Woman’s body is Her own f@$&ing business.” I absolutely love this movie soooo much. I hope that you continue the View Askewniverse journey.

Possibly Rickman's greatest role!!

Random memory unlocked watching this. I can still remember where Comedy Central out all the commercial breaks in the TV edit.

'You're driving really fast.' Me as a German: 🤣

Clerks 3 turned out to be pretty good ties up the whole story neatly

OMG one of my All time FAVORITE FILMS =D

The song 'still' by Alanis morrissette at the end credits is gorgeous. Beautiful lyrics

So glad you are doing this. I hope you do the rest of Kevin Smith

Chris Rock (Rufus, the guy who fell from the sky and “looks familiar”) has been the most lauded stand-up comic in the US since the 1990s. His movie *Top Five* is my second favorite comedy of this millennium and I highly highly recommend it. I’ll add, the special that rocketed him to super-stardom is called “Bring The Pain”. It is amazing and it would be wonderful to see your reaction to it; but, and this sucks about modern culture, I genuinely think you would feel really uncomfortable being authentic in your reactions if you knew you were going to present it to the world. So maybe you should watch it on your own time. But definitely watch it. And his other specials, too. Most recently he was slapped by Will Smith at the Oscars, which I’m sure you heard about.

Thank You!!! Thank You!!! Thank You!!! Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back Next PLEASE!!! Proud member of the Coalition for the Liberation of Itinerant Tree Dwellers 🐵

You touch our heart and we love you for it.

That cry when Bartleby get his wings shot off, his first experience of pain as a human 😵😵😵 I get chills every time I see that.

Great movie! A true classic! 👍 ❤

If they had taljed about islam in that way, the moviemakers would be dead.

Wow, it's great that you watched this one, Mary! It seems to be a rarity among KZfaqrs (for good reason I guess). Much respect. I still think this is Kevin Smith's most thoughtful and personal movie. His subsequent movies have not been as ambitious (although they are still entertaining).

lol got a febreez ad during the poop demon part.

1:17 Very clever, Mary Cherry!!! 😂

Can't wait to see your reaction for Strike Back, its gona be a mirror image 😆

But you didn't say "god bless you", when I sneezed....😂😂😂😂

It's worth mentioning that Kevin Smith made this movie in an attempt to rediscover his religious faith and that he joined in on a Catholic protest against the movie on opening night. He tried really hard to make good protest signs too.

I remember really liking Dogma. That was also the peak of my Linda Cardellini and Salma Hayek phases.

I rented this & Galaxy Quest at the same time, not knowing Alan Rickman was in both. Was A great movie weekend

She said Chris Rock looks “familiar.” 😅

U r the first reactor I’ve seen react to this movie such a great movie and love your reactions :)

“But you didn’t say God bless you when I sneezed.” 🤣
