  • A really fun item today (and our most popular submission) comes from the Modern Humorist website.They’ve done a sort of tongue-in-cheek “what if” scenario on other possible indie flick spinoffs into cartoons, had Clerks succeeded. Parodies include cartoon stills from “The Sweet Hereafter”, “Buena Vista Social Club”, “The Blair Witch Project”, and more. Very clever and funny, be sure and check ‘em out.
  • Dogma’s hitting pay per view starting later this week on DirecTV Direct Ticket and other cable provider packages. If you’d like to watch it at home again (especially those of you without DVD players), now’s a great chance to catch it again.
  • Speaking of Dogma, it’s due for release on video in Australia on AUGUST 8TH. Mark your calendar, mate. Oh and while you’re at it, can you try and talk Paul Hogan out of making “Crocodile Dundee III”? Thanks.
  • Oh, and even MORE good Dogma news for folks in the UK — VCI is planning to release the Special Edition DVD in Novemeber, containing all the extras from the region 1 Special Edition “and more” (quoted). We’re not sure what the “more” part is at this point, but as soon as we know, you’ll know. Frankly, we can’t possibly think of anything else to include that won’t already be on the region 1 US disc this fall.
  • Here’s another Chasing Amy DVD review online if you’d care to check it out.It’s incredibly detailed, just like we like ‘em, so if you’d like a second opinion to our own review of the disc, it’s definitely a worthy read.
  • Finally today, an unproven scoop but an interesting one — A source says that Clerks’ Marilyn Ghigliotti‘s appearing in a new “erotic thriller” titled “Jacker 2″. Again, we’ve yet to confirm this one, but hey, if someone wants to send in a screener copy…There’d be no objections. 😉

Anyway, folks, thanks for stopping in as always, and we’ll see ya next time.
