• As many of you know, Kevin appeared in our home state of Pennsylvania last night for a 4+ hour Q&A session at Bloomsburg University. Fans were treated to the hilarious episode 6 of Clerks:TCS and a TON of Kevin’s anecdotes, jokes, and insights. We’re sure that some of the same stuff that many of you have heard at other shows got mentioned, as folks always seem to come up with the same questions (The Supes script and the Jon Peters “spider” story being one of them, how Kev manages to tell that story so well every time like it’s the first time it’s asked we’ll never know) but we DID learn a few small things about View Askew 5:

• The film will be filmed mostly in LOS ANGELES (!) with just a few bits and pieces done in Red Bank. Wow. So our prediction was right yesterday. How about that? This is definitely a surprise, and might make that set coverage a bit tougher for us…Anyone got any extra plane tickets they want to get rid of this Winter?

  The reason for this MAY be that the film has quite a bit of action that takes place outdoors, thus, the better climate of the west coast is needed, or perhaps it was just the use of a soundstage or the convenience of the actors and actresses that was taken into consideration. At any rate, we’re sure Kevin will elaborate.

• “Developing The Monkey” refers to a note Kevin got back (we assume from the studio) on the VA5 script, which contains a monkey as one of the characters. The person who wrote the note asked Kevin to “Develop the monkey” as a character. Whoa.
• Affleck and Lee are on board for dual roles, Lee as Brodie and Banky, Affleck as Holden (and we assume Shannon Hamilton though Kev kept that one a secret).
• The film is a road flick (again supporting the idea of the outdoor, warmer climate shoot).

We also learned that Jay Mewes is now engaged, so congrats to him…And finally, a scooper has a pretty funny story to tell about the event that makes us wish we were there in person:
