Via recent board posts, Kevin cites that there has been no movement forward, at present, on the special edition DVDs of Jersey Girl or Chasing Amy X. Of course, we’ll let you know if that changes. Projects rarely get left behind forever these days, so you can bet we’ll eventually get to see both, somehow. Patience.

The Mid-Ohio Con reports that Jason Mewes will be a guest this year. The show runs on October 4th and 5th in Columbus, Ohio. We’ll assume Mewes will be there for his usual autograph signing and meet and greet. If you’re in the area, this is a fantastic chance to meet a View Askew legend.

Our shot of Mr. O’Halloran comes to us courtesy of the great photographer Albert Ortega, who always seems to be everywhere the stars are. Brian was at Fangoria’s Weekend of Horrors in Los Angeles promoting his new horror comedy “Brutal Massacre”. You can catch Bri on the big screen in a very brief cameo in “The Happening”. Our scooper reports it’s a quick one: “You see his eyes is the mirror of a car, and a kind of quick shot of the lower half of his face. But he’s there!”

We’re not watching NBC’s “Celebrity Family Feud”, but from the ads, it looks like there’s at least one episode that’s a must-see: A commercial lists one of the upcoming teams as ‘Team Earl’, which consists Jason Lee and his “My Name is Earl” co-stars, all in character: Earl, Randy, Joy, Darnell, and Catalina. According to the website, they’ll take on Camden County. If the episodes roll out as listed, this puts this one as airing on July 8th, but we’ll post when we know for sure. What a fantastic way to get an “Earl” fix in the middle of summer! Bravo, NBC.
