Dogma

Trivia: Kevin Smith stated that days before news broke about Harvey Weinstein's sex abuse, Weinstein called him out of the blue asking about making a "Dogma 2" due to the first film being a cult favourite. Smith began brainstorming ideas, only to be shocked when the news broke. Smith stated that he believed Weinstein was trying to make people loyal to him by offering them dream projects before the news broke. Smith also said he knew Weinstein cheated on his wife, but not that he was a sexual predator.

Trivia: In the Golgotha ​​scene, there is a clear reminiscence of Batman, a superhero loved by the director. The excrement monster is a parody of Clayface, Batman's enemy. For the avoidance of doubt, the monster quotes Batman's enemy from the comic Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth by Morrison and McKean: "I was born screwed into existence."

Continuity mistake: When Silent Bob carries Bethany's body back to the church after she's been killed by God's blast of lightning, watch her fingers when Silent Bob puts her down; she adjusts them to rest more comfortably on her arm.

Bethany: I don't want this, it's too big.
Metatron: That's what Jesus said. Yes, I had to tell him. And you can imagine how that hurt the Father - not to be able to tell the Son Himself because one word from His lips would destroy the boy's frail human form? So I was forced to deliver the news to a scared child who wanted nothing more than to play with other children. I had to tell this little boy that He was God's only Son, and that it meant a life of persecution and eventual crucifixion at the hands of the very people He came to enlighten and redeem. He begged me to take it back, as if I could. He begged me to make it all not true. And I'll let you in on something, Bethany, this is something I've never told anyone before... If I had the power, I would have.

More quotes from Dogma

Question: Why is it that The Metatron, Bartleby, and Loki all refer to God as "He" when God actually turns out to be a woman? The Metatron even says "her" and "she" to Bethany, in reference to God, in a very patronizing manner, as if she's holding on to an incorrect belief.

Answer: Metatron explains at the very end that God has no gender, and can appear on Earth as a man or a woman. Metatron's patronizing tone is indicating that there are far more important matters afoot than which gender noun to use to describe God.
