  • The all-knowing IGN guys reviewed the Chasing Amy DVD, and seemed to like the flick itself, but were fairly harsh on the disc’s audio and video limitations. Read all about it HERE.
  • Kevin’s the “Loser Of The Week” (great honor, huh?) in Entertainment Weekly due to the Clerks series being cancelled: “After the first two episodes of clerks failed to register with viewers, ABC has closed shop on the indie’s auteurs’s animated small-screen effort.” The winner? Talk Soup host, Hal Sparks, for landing a new gig in an indie flick. Sure, we’ll see who makes it further, EW. Plus, shouldn’t ABC be the losers of the week for ditching such a fun new show?
  • Word has it that Film Four will release Dogma for sale on VHS in the UK sometime this December. Still no US sellthrough date, but we can assume it’ll be much sooner than that, probably this fall.
  • Finally today, here’s something that’s quite amusing: The Ninja Hypothesis is a website whose theory is that ANY flick can be made better with the addition of ninjas. Surf over to see what they thought some of the hooded fellas could add to Dogma. (Aside: They thought “Fight Club” almost defeated the entire hypothesis due to it being pretty cool without ninjas. Heh.)

Sorry for the lack of news lately, we’ll be back sooner with more, as long as something happens, anyway.
