"Regular kismet"

What does that mean?

Angella : "And then I saw you at the ...."

Constantine : "Regular kismet." - From : Constatnine

I know that kismet is the meaning of fate or destiny, but I can't understand that situation.

Welcome to the Forums, HoHoHo, Quite interestingly, to me of course, kismet seems to be the English spelling/pronunciation of a word in Arabic with the same meaning you mentioned, destiny. Anyway, Constantine means that his destiny always draws him to where unnatural accidents happen, so it is not something strange that Angela had seen him at the place. Hope that it helps.

Thank you so much HoHoHo for asking that question. I have been trying to figure that out for years. I assumed that it was a Catholic thing, and I tried to find it on their websites but had no luck. Mystery from one of my top 5 movie favorites is solved.
