THE REBUTTAL! Adam Carolla responds to Kevin Smith about the Telepictures deal Jan 25, 2012

[DeEzriel]

I've actually enjoyed Kevin's movies quite a bit over the years, but as a person, in all of the interviews/live performances that I've seen of him he's always seemed very self absorbed, as if he's always the most important figure in the room. Even when he's on stage with Jason he talks over him and interrupts him to ramble as if Jason isn't important. I've always been an eerie judge of character.. I can usually read someone within a few minutes (in person).. I've never felt good vibes from Kevin

[superfly45]

i like both these guys from watchin the man show to all kevins movies an specials, both great. the only thing i dont get is why if both of em signed some contract that he says only kevin made any money but why is that? as much as i like him id say adams career is in the crapper compared to where it was could be wrong i just havnt seen or heard his name in awhile so why not make some easy fat cash? who gives a fuck tho

[dingdongpingpong69]

@ion010101 oh aren't you edgy and rebellious

[TheHotpoop]

Sorry Carolla, Jon Stewart you are not. Talentless douche bag you are.

[7deadlyvirtues]

@TheHotpoop Yoda you are not.

[TomVCunningham]

Sounds like Telepictures is the one who fucked up here...

Adam and Kevin should bury the hatchet, do more podcasts, maybe a show if they can get past this...etc.

[oODropshotOo]

All the hate for both of these men is disgusting. Its just a pool of vile people spewing hateful comments about two human beings they've never met. Its like some of you actually feel emotionally involved in this its sad really.

This is a communication error by one or the other or both of these people but you people don't care you want to use this as a way to tell people how bad Adam or Kevin are.

You can all go fuck yourselves.

[insanefreak223]

@oODropshotOo ummm... Kevin never says anything bad about Adam. He says over and over about how brilliant he thinks he is and gave nothing but compliments. Adam is the one being an asshole. Just sayin

[sobbyhasselhoff]

@oODropshotOo Two paragraphs about how people are idiots for getting mad about two guys they don't know arguing, When you're getting mad at people you don't know for writing hateful shit.

You are mind numbingly stupid.

[DTRASH]

Fuck Adam Carolla, this guy's an asshole

[buffalowingmediabias]

The worst part of all this for me is the freaking Kevin Smith gay loving crowd and how upset they got when Adam made gay jokes on Kevin's show. I don't condone gay bashing. However, in Kevin's show, they are very brutal when it comes to making fun of the mentally challenged. No one seems to give a rat's ass about that. The gays laugh at that, but the minute someone makes fun of them, they start writing e-mails and bitching about it. Bunch of hypocrites.

[FilmCreatureCom]

@colt54604 Good analysis and challenge of my comment shitdick. Explain how an unfunny, uncreative slug like Kevin Smith is a genius. He started with a black and white movie? Is that brilliant? He wrote and directed such turds as Jersey Girl and Cop Out. The Other Guys sucked and it was 5x better than Cop Out. He is an overrated snob with his own gay agenda.

[Taylor255]

@FilmCreatureCom Well, people do have differing opinions, you know. He could think he's a genius because he really likes Kevin Smith's style of humour. And you can't say he's uncreative seeing as how he's written and directed a bunch of movies as well as comic books.

Clerks was black and white because it was cheaper to make. And he didn't write Cop Out, he only directed it.

Gay agenda? What does that even mean?

[ozwald8]

Whatever the case is. This shit is great radio. Stern would be proud.

[hoodspix1]

so far nobody has been given anything. Smith's pilot is still waiting to be picked up. there's nothing happening on any deal right now. i used to listen to Carolla, but i tire of listening to a blow hard who have a bunch of yesmen who kiss his ass during every show. at least Smith's crew aren't afraid of calling him on the carpet on things.

[xxsandmanxx02]

It sounds to me like a huge communication break down with Telepictures in the center of it relaying either false or embellished information to both sides. There are 2 sides to the story with everyone pointing the finger at the other. Quite frankly there seems like a simple solution during it all..one of them should have picked up the phone to find out wtf was going on. It seems like both of them were told false information about the other and instead of emails and texts they should have talked.

[rbritten17]

Seems like an email didn't get sent somewhere along the lines. And from what I am gathering Telepictures wanted a reason to drop adam so I blame Telepictures.

[SuperRaysWeedPipe]

I've known for a while that Kevin Smith is a giant douche. I used to be a fan, then I found out what he was really all about. Fuck Kevin Smith. I'm glad he's rapidly fading into obscurity.

[colt45604]

@SuperRaysWeedPipe fuck you asshole

[SuperRaysWeedPipe]

@colt45604 That's exactly what I'd expect from a Kevin Smith fan. Oh, and it's spelled "Douche" not "Dousche". Maybe when you grow up some day, you'll finally see what a joke Kevin Smith really is.

[colt45604]

@SuperRaysWeedPipe fuck you asshole

[RadialSkid]

@SuperRaysWeedPipe

Obscurity? He has more of a following now than he ever has before.

[SQ91]

Niether Adam nor Kev are wrong just missed connections and it seems Telepictures were talking from both sides. That being said if the show actually does happen with Ralph Garman from KROQ radio in LA like I hear that it is I'll be happier since I was never a big fan of Adam, anyway.

[yakyakzly]

Whole thing was just shitty timing / communication.

[FilmCreatureCom]

I now believe Kevin Smith is a royal asshole and two-face. Adam does a free podcast too numbnuts. Do you think Louis C.K. just signed a shitty deal for his FX show? What a nutjob. WHY would you let Telepictures fuck you and take all the cash for themselves? Does the money they saved on talent go to charity. Adam's agent wants him to get paid right so HE gets paid more in turn. Kevin Smith has a terrible batting average.

[colt45604]

@FilmCreatureCom fuck you you dousche kevin is a genius

[osp80]

@FilmCreatureCom actually the first season louie did have kind of a shitty deal with FX so he could have creative freedom
