Kevin Smith Used Yoga Hosers Finale To Apologise To Critics

Kevin Smith has taken to Twitter to explain that the final act of his most recent film ‘Yoga Hosers’ is an apology to film critics.

After screening at the Fantasia Film Festival, ‘Yoga Hosers’ was met with a mixed response. One particular review from Birth. Movies. Death’s Andrew Todd, though, inspired Smith to respond and explain what he was trying to do with its conclusion.

In his review, Todd wrote that ‘Yoga Hosers’ “asks how little Kevin Smith really cares.” Clearly this slightly irked Smith. But in a calm and detailed manner, Smith responded to the review by revealing that his intent was to apologise to critics and naysayers that had previously not liked his work.

You can read Kevin Smith’s full passage regarding the end to ‘Yoga Hosers’, below.

WARNING: As is Smith’s wont, it includes some rather salty and explicit language. So those of you that are easily offended might not want to read ahead.

While the conclusion to ‘Yoga Hosers’ might also be Kevin Smith’s attempt to clear the air with film critics, it’s also clearly a love letter to his daughter, Harley Quinn Smith, too, whose own passion for filmmaking has reignited his. Smith had previously insisted that he’d retire from filmmaking after ‘Clerks 3′, which is still in development.

As Smith explains in his impassioned diatribe, ‘Yoga Hosers’ is an spin-off of ‘Tusk’, in which Harley Quinn Smith and Lily-Rose Depp (whose father is also rather famous) reprise their characters of 15-year-old Maritoba convenience store clerks.

But when an ancient evil rises from beneath Canada and unleashes a tidal wave of monsters called Bratzis, because they’re Nazis made out of bratwurst, the duo join together with the legendary Guy LaPointe (Johnny Depp) to fight them off and save the world, while hopefully getting to the coolest kid in school’s party on time, too.

Sadly, there’s still no news on when ‘Yoga Hosers’ will be released in the UK, though.
