OMFG. I went and picked up my Special Edition Dogma DVD today.
There is a whole other film's worth of extended and deleted scenes. But the real genius? The outtakes. The outtakes in which an ad-libbing Affleck tells Loki "no, I'm telling you that YOU'RE MY BITCH", camps it up, corpses repeatedly, uses the phrase, "Gay as a tree full of parakeets" and CALLS LOKI 'SPARKY'.
GAY. Gay as, well, a tree full of parakeets. ♥
There's also quite a long outtake of Matty talking to Jay and Silent Bob in what is clearly just meant to be a long shot of the carriage, about how Star Wars is really all just a big gay allegory while, in the background, Bartleby and Bethany debate whether there are any straight, non-paedophiles in the Catholic church.
Someone's childhood is going to cost them millions in shrink's fees, I feel.
But what you can see from the outtakes is how comfortable Matty and Affleck actually are with each other. They're clearly old friends with in-jokes and the characters they play in the film have the opposite characters that they do in real life, almost. It's like they're playing each other.
I always hated the pair of them, but actually... they're really dorky and kind of sweet.
Am such a fangirl.

I remember when Ben was on. James Lipton asked Matt if there was anything he'd like to ask Ben, and Matt said something along the lines of, "Am I a good lover?"
I heart when boys are comfortable enough with their own sexuality to play off the gay thing.

Dogma is so the gayest thing, though. *loves them*
