Final Word On Chasing Amy SoundTrack…

September 4th @ 12:00 am | No Comments » | Scooped by Brad & Chris

  • Alright, we know that everyone’s been bugging Miramax hoping for a Chasing Amy Soundtrack. Well, here’s the final word from Kevin on this subject:
: Someone (I cant recall who) posted a few boards back How about if you isolated the soundtrack on the Laser Disc version of Chasing Amy.. (Certainly that couldnt be Illegal!) The board was switched over before anyone had a chance to see it…

: So how about it?? Isn’t that a good idea??

It’s not a bad idea, but it’s not going to happen.

My last word on the soundtrack – there will never be one.
Bitching, scheming, grass-roots campaigning… it all means nothing. Sorry.

  • The response we’ve received so far on our plea for a move to a larger server has been fantastic. Thanks to everyone who’s been kind enough to offer us free server space so far. We’ll still entertain offers for awhile, since we’re not planning on being prepared for the move for atleast a couple of weeks yet. For details on our proposed move, seebelow.

September 4th @ 12:00 am | No Comments » | Scooped by Brad @ Chris

  • We celebrated our 5000th hit at News Askew yesterday. Thanks to all ofyou for helping to make the site such a success! We never imagined thatthe site would become this popular and visible when we started, butwe’re happy to have the following and plan to continue for a long time. Going by current trends, since we went online with the new format backon July 27th, we’ve been averaging 137 hits a day (and growing!). This number isn’t anything astronomical, but for a young site with a specific theme it’s really quite impressive. Here’s to 5,000 more!

Odds & Ends From Kevin…

September 4th @ 12:00 am | No Comments » | Scooped by Brad & Chris

  • Kevin posted a message on the WWWBoard earlier today that covered a few interesting issues. We’ll summarize them for you here:
  • Kevin was interviewed by Web Magazine and spoke highly of the View Askew Site and the WWWBoard itself. I wonder if he mentioned our site at all? Hehehe…
  • “Good Will Hunting”, Ben Affleck’s new flick, had the HIGHEST test scores in Miramax history! This is great news for all parties involved. Congrats! We’d received a message from someone who had a pass to a test screening, but they never got back to us. If anyone who saw the screening and wants to write up a little review of the flick, please contact us. Kevin predicts big things for this movie, so watch for it.
  • Kevin and Jay will appear in person for a screening of the classic “Clerks” in Oregon (broad area, huh?) on October 10th. He’ll have thedetails soon and we’ll be sure to pass them on.
