Kevin On Clerks TAS, Toronto, & More…

  • Kevin checked in today for the first time in a couple of weeks…First of to correct our episode six description of the Clerks Animated Series (see below). We’ll also correct the Clerks:TAS page as well with this and some more info that we’ve heard from someone at the final reading. Heeeeeere’s Kev:
The description of episode 6 at the News Askew ‘Clerks:TAS’ site is a bit off. The episode starts with Dante and Randal at a comic-con, appearing for as signing as ‘the stars of ‘Clerks:TAS’. There, they’re given shit for making a show that bears no resemblance to the movie it’s based on. They then decide to do the show more like the movie, no matter what.

And that’s the cold opening. The whole show is about their efforts to keep the episode flat, conversational, and counter-grounded – though they don’t have much luck.

Just thought I’d clear that up.

The ‘Dogma’ trailer is nearly done, and ready to go up this weekend in some places, I think. The poster is now locked, and ready to print. It’s quite cool as well. Things are becoming more and more official, finally.

I agree with Malcolm: the TO screening is going to be tough to get into. Unless you live in the nearby area, I’d suggest waiting until the Stash screening, or opening weekend. You may wind up traveling way north for way disappointment.

And a small, closing suggestion: if you haven’t seen ‘The Sixth Sense’ yet, go check it out. I think it was the best flick of the summer. It’s deliberately paced (so much so that the kid doesn’t utter the “I see dead people,” line from the trailer until over half way through the flick), but well worth it for the tremendous final half hour. I know the theory is that anything that does well theatrically can’t be good (an inane theory, that), or that Bruce Willis is real hit or miss (this is one of the hits), but I’m telling you – it’s a really good flick. Don’t miss it.

See below for Malcolm’s post on this (as Kevin eferenced it above). And we agree. The Sixth Sense was a cool flick to see early on, before all the buzz spread. Try not to listen to what folks say about the film and go in with an open mind. It was a lot more enjoyable anyway, and Kevin’s description above doesn’t ruin a thing about the flick.

And man…We can’t WAIT to see that Dogma one-sheet and new trailer! Yes!!!
