First up - On Tuesday, September 30th, Kevin returns to the Great White North – He’ll appear live at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in Calgary, AB Canada.

As previously announced, on November 7th, the Count Basie Theater in Red Bank, NJ will be jammin’ once again when Kevin returns home for what we’re sure will be another sold out show. Tix are now available for online purchase at the Basie box office.

Then, on January 24, 2009, Kevin comes to The Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts in Hartford, CT.

Again, no further details at this time, but we did want to get the early word out on these shows. Once we have them set in stone along with ticket purchase information, we’ll have it all right here at News Askew. Oh, and we’re also hoping to have an official reschedule date for that Bergen Q&A soon, as well. Stay tuned.

We haven’t heard any further details at this hour late on Sunday night, so, like the rest of you, we’re sitting back and waiting. We’re hopeful to have a bunch of mirrors up tomorrow, where possible, though can assume that the trailer will debut exclusive at the official site, Quick Stop Entertainment, and/or View Askew. Despite being on different domains, we actually share a server with those sites, so expect some slow traffic for a while regardless of where you go (this one’s going to likely be our biggest bandwidth-buster yet). Stay tuned, as soon as we get word of the trailer’s arrival, we’ll let ya know the best way to get it. Here’s hoping we can all join you in seeing the first live footage from the next View Askew film right here on the web tomorrow.

Hello Northern New Jersey-ers and Non-Northern New Jersey-ers.


I’ve just received word today that this Q&A has been postponed with a makeup date TBA. When I hear the exact date I will let everyone know.


I also have no idea what the ticket exchange or refund policy is as of yet. Again when I find out I’ll let you know.


Thanks.

We’ll of course keep you posted if we hear any further details, or learn of refund info or the make-up date. Current rumor has it that the new date will be sometime in November, but that is just speculation. Many folks have either stopped by the Bergen PAC or called in and have their refunds processing. Or, you can hold onto your seats and have them waiting for you when the new date is announced.

Hot jewel thieves pretending to be animal rights activists? Who may or may not be lesbians? Yes, please.

3. Clerks 2


How could I not include a film that caused a well-known critic to storm out in mid-screening because of possible interspecies erotica? A film that includes a character trying to “take back” a certain racial slur? During a plane ride last week, I decided to forego the in-flight movie selection (Juno) in favor of this movie … for some inexplicable reason the Kevin Smith DVD was in my laptop bag. When the flight attendant interrupted me and I paused the movie, it froze on a screenshot of Randal with that slur visible on the back of his Mooby’s shirt. I realized that the image would be terrific to post as the photo at the top of this list, but unfortunately it proves my point a little too well.

The second video presentation was on “Zack & Miri Make A Porno,” and kicked off with Kevin Smith explaining that along the lines of “Clerks 2,” he will again be presenting a series of “webisodes” featuring a behind-the-scenes look at his last film, featuring the cast and called “Money Shots.”


A quick example was next shown, featuring Seth Rogen along with fellow cast members Craig Robinson and Jason Mewes as they talked about the fake semen used in the film. Ricky Mabe then enters the scene and begins to spread the substance across his face, much to the horror and/or delight of the others.


It was announced that the first installment of “Money Shots” will premiere on Quick Stop Entertainment on May 15.

We’ll of course drop you a reminder for the appearance of these highly anticipated shorts from Chop Shop Entertainment and View Askew. We can’t wait.

What can I say? The better team won.


But it was close in those last two games. Indeed, in Game Five, the Devils came back from a 4-1 deficit to almost tie it up in the third. But when all’s said and done, there can only be one winner, and this year (well, this round, really), it’s the Rangers. Congrats to the Blueshirts; you’ve got a helluva goalie and some great young guns.


Devils’ Legionnaires, I implore you to take those guns out of your mouths and let these positives from the 07-08 season warm your heart ‘til the fall.


…


We won’t be holding a Cup aloft this year, but that’s okay; let someone else have a turn. Four Cups in thirteen years might’ve been a little too greedy.


In the interest of saving Rangers’ fans some time so they can psychologically prepare for either the Pens or the Flyers, I will provide the standard negative response to any reminder of the Devils’ Cups collection.

While we can’t be certain if Kevin will continue on with his team out, might we suggest taking on the surging Philadelphia Flyers, who just pulled a HUGE overtime win in Washington DC last night to move onto the next round? GO FLYERS!

The cost of obtaining soundtrack rights outweighed the entire production costs for this 1994 film.

Pretty cool, no? We’re wondering if there will ever be another successful flick made as cheaply. While “Red State” will certainly easily exceed the “Clerks” and “Chasing Amy” indie budgets, we’re curious to see what happens with that project, especially if Kev and Scott decide to independently fund it.
