In a world filled with emotional and intellectual decay, finding positivity on the internet is a rare gem. One person who brings joy amidst the chaos is Kevin Smith, the talented writer-director of “Chasing Amy” and “Clerks.” However, even he is not immune to accusations of being fake or selling out when he expresses his genuine admiration for something.

Recently, Smith defended the use of CGI in “The Flash” to bring back deceased actors for brief cameos. Unfortunately, a Twitter user accused him of “shilling” for the film. Undeterred, Smith responded with his usual swiftness and composed demeanor. He explained that he chooses not to discuss movies or shows he dislikes, preferring to use his time to highlight the aspects that resonate with him. In a tweet, Smith emphasized that his positive comments are not about “shilling” but simply a reflection of his enthusiasm for trivial topics. He also acknowledged the abundance of negativity online and expressed his desire to contribute to a more uplifting online experience.

Smith has gained a reputation on social media for sharing photos of himself crying after watching certain superhero or sci-fi media. This has even led to the creation of the “Kevin Smith Crying” meme, a testament to his genuine emotional connection with the content he consumes.

Although some may assume that Smith loves everything due to the frequency of his positive posts, he has clarified that he chooses not to highlight things he dislikes. In response to a disgruntled fan, Smith questioned the purpose of highlighting something he doesn’t enjoy. He believes the world would be a better place if more people followed this approach.
