For the second time since the revered actor passed away, filmmaker Kevin Smith has taken to social media to pay tribute to Alan Rickman.

Rickman, of course, played The Metatron in Dogma, Smith's fourth and most successful/controversial film.

You can check out the latest -- an image from cartoonist Steve Stark, director of Jay and Silent Bob's Super Groovy Cartoon Movie.

Wands up! #jayandsilentbob say farewell to the Voice of God. I love you, Alan! You were (and will always be) so fucking...

"One of my favorite people who ever lived has died. The legendary Alan Rickman played Metatron, the Voice of God, in my 4th film Dogma," Smith wrote yesterday. "Alan was the first non-friend who signed up to the flick, but he became a great friend in record time. In this pic, he holds the Ken doll his Dogma character's lack of genitalia was modeled after. I'll never forget his incredible dulcet tones guffawing at the rubber crotch makeup he was wearing: one of the greatest actors who ever lived, tickled by a cinematic lack of a dick. I loved Hans Gruber the minute I saw Die Hardbut I fell in love with the soft-spoken gentle soul who brought Gruber to life. Thank you for lending a hack like me your artistry and your credibility, Alan. You were never Snape to me as much as you were the adult Harry Potter himself: a bonafide wizard who could conjure absolute magic using merely words. He was a HUGE cauldron of win, this man. I'll miss him forever. Rest in Peace, Voice of God. Back to Heaven, where you came from..."
