Dogma is out on video right? So where can I buy it?
Dogma was released on video a week ago - so where can you buy it? Well here's the catch. The video is priced for rental at the moment in order to give video stores a window to turn a profit. Thus it is currently priced at $90+. The price should come down and the VHS copy should be priced for sellthrough (~$20) in 6 months to a year (but don't quote me on that).
There is one way to grab a copy of Dogma on VHS. Blockbuster and other video stores typically sell 'previously viewed videos' a few weeks after their initial video release. These typically got for $20 or less. So start staking out your local Blockbuster now.
We strongly urge you to save your money and go buy a DVD Player. Why? Read below.
Yes there will be a Dogma Special Edition DVD
Many of you have purchased the Dogma Stadard Edition DVD and asked where the hell the extras and deleted scenes were. Here's the scoop - a Special Edition was planned all along and announced way back when Kevin was editing the movie and realized how much had to be cut. The only hangup was the enormous amount of time it takes to put togather the kind of special edition content we're known for, thus a standard DVD was released in order to have a day and date version out with the VHS release. The Special Edition is planned for late this year as that should give SE DVD producers Vincent Pereira and J.M. Kenny (The same guys behind the Mallrats SE DVD) to make it a top notch disc.

Dogma - In Theaters Tomorrow
As if you didn't know... and this may be a shameless plea,
however, if you have the time and the means, please, go see the flick this weekend.
Lyrics to the "Mooby the Golden Calf" song
If you've picked up the soundtrack - you've probably been
pulling your hair out trying to figure out what those limey kids are singing in the "Mooby the Golden
Calf" song (which was written by Kevin himself incidentally). Well pull no longer, here they are:
Mooby the Golden Calf
Who's a friend to the King of all the monkey's?
Who's a pal to the duck who won't fly south?
Who's the buddy of the Bible Quoting Aardvark?
Who's the chum of the cat inside your mouth?
He is a cow! It's Mooby Cow!
Oh sweet Bovine, our lives to you we vow!
We want him now! That Mooby Cow!
'Cause we're all soldiers in the Mooby Troops, Ka-Pow!
Oh we'll all have some loverly adventures
with Surly and the Pat-Pat Monkey King!
And with Enoch and Little Eddie Dentures!
We'll put smiles on the grumpies as we sing!
About that cow! Mooby the Cow!
Who only moos when we beg and scream and shout!
Master of Tao! Mooby the Cow!
With only sacred enlightenedness allowed!

"It seems you are promoting these movies not only for the
money but because you HATE CHRISTIANS. And as a result, you want to tell the
world how wrong the truth is about a jewish man named, JESUS. So you make a
movie but call it art. You have no shame because you have been desensitized
by violence, sex, and the value of money."

'Hate Letter(s)' of the week updated
THE LETTERS: An except from this week's batch:
"The film industry has a profound influence in that environment, but when it becomes corrupt, it can trickle down to the heart of the family, only to disrupt it. If you can sleep at night after a day of plotting this brand of tyranny in the work place, then just stand by and wait; the simple passage of time will rear its ugly head at you, however long it takes."

SEPTEMBER 8, 1999, (Toronto) - Lions Gate Films has acquired North American rights to
"Dogma," the eagerly anticipated comic fantasy from acclaimed filmmaker Kevin Smith, it
was announced today. The film, which stars Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Linda Fiorentino,
Salma Hayek, Jason Lee, Jason Mewes, Alan Rickman, Chris Rock, and Smith himself, will
be released wide this fall.
"What else can I say except that I'm ecstatic," said Kevin Smith, writer and director of
'Dogma'. "The Lion's Gate guys did top-notch work last year with 'Gods and Monsters' and
'Affliction', and I have every confidence that they'll do the same if not better with 'Dogma'. I
give these guys props for standing behind our flick, and giving audiences a chance to see a
pretty funny pro-faith film."
