(If not, here’s the YouTube link) Well, in a recent interview with Rotten Tomatoes, Kevin Smith revealed that he was planning a film entitled Red State “inspired by Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, a controversial church group made largely of members of the Phelps family and run by preacher Fred Phelps. [The Church] is infamous in America for taking a supremely homophobic stance and for picketing the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq, the group see media interviews as a platform for airing their views and the word of their founder, Fred Phelps. very much about that subject matter, that point of view and that position taken to the absolute extreme.” Interesting huh?
