Joel Siegel....?

Question

He walked out of a Clerks II screening. And not just walked out. He made a bit of a scene.

You can read Kevin Smith's blog about it and hear a radio interview with Mr. Siegel.

My Question is...Do you think this was unprofessional? I do.

I absolutely agree that he had ever right to walk out of the film. It's the WAY he did that I think is unprofessional and frankly uncalled for. He knows that Kevin Smith's movies are full of profanity, etc. He's even called Kevin Smith a brilliant director.

Answer 1

Do I think it unprofessional? Yes and no. He (Joel Seigel) was offended, he had every right to get up & walk out. That part I thought was fine. His making a big stink out of it is very not professional.

But he should have known it would be crude-It's f@#$(&^ Jay & f@#$)&>Silent Bob for F&@$%^&* sake! He F^@&*#&^ should have f^*@^$&(# expected it. The f&@! hole

I also think Kevin Smith's behavior is abismal. But then again, there is no such thing as bad press, is there?

Answer 2

He had the right to walk out but the way in which he did it was unacceptable.

Interrupting or trying to influence the others around him was highly unprofessional.
