Last weekend, we shot eight Jay and Silent Bob shorts for Mtv. We had fun (except Scott, who’s always stuck with getting this silliness organized), and captured what we all felt was some funny-ass shit on film. There’s a great Steve-Dave and Walt appearance, as well as the introduction of Jay’s (Askewniverse) sister, and an answer for anybody who ever wondered what happened to Mister Svenning’s assistant, Roddy.

Props to good Will Hunting himself (our boy Matty) who made the trek to Jersey last weekend to turn in yet another Oscar-worthy performance.

They won’t air until Feb/March, but we may have some early stuff for you guys to see up here in late January.

Straight from that, I’ve been knee-deep in the Coke ad. We shoot this weekend, at the Central Park Zoo, of all places.

I’m told ‘Amy’ was the first runner-up in both the LA and Boston Critics Cirlce Awards, and the second or third runner-up in New York. To me, this meant little (I don’t think runner-ups get certificates of any kind), but it seems to mean a great deal to Miramax – they feel it bodes well for the flick in terms of the Golden Globes (which are announced Thursday) and the Oscars (which are announced in Feb).

Rumor has it that Joey’s got a strong chance of getting nominated for a Golden Globe (the Hollywood Foreign PressAssociation – the folks who sponsor the Golden Globes – was absolutely in love with her).

Miramax ran its first-ever ‘For Your Consideration’ ad on our behalf last week in Variety. Needless to say, it’s being framed.

Meanwhile, Vulgarthon confirmation cards went out this week. Most – if not all – of you good people who secured tickets should be seeing them in your mailbox pretty soon.

To confirm suspicions aired here last week, Holden McNeil is indeed involved with Emma… so to speak.

And I’m happy to report that the ‘Good Will Hunting’ screenplay is available from Miramax books. Pick it up – it is – hands-down – the best screenplay of the year.

I probably won’t be around much over the next few days, so please try to behave in my absence.

Just think – in a little over two weeks, this board’s going to be more devoid of posts than perhaps even the first day on its inception.
