- You folks really are amazing…We’ve got around 100 or so entries for the logo contest, and there really have been some slick, creative, brilliant designs. It’s going to be a TOUGH decision, that’s for sure. We’re still accepting entries for those of you working on them, and probably will for at least another week or so. Also, if you have revisions to your designs, or want to enter again, feel free. Thanks again to all of you who took the time to make a submission so far. We never expected this big of a turnout and it’s truly amazing. Keep ‘em coming!

Psycomic: “Saturday”…
- The Psycomic column continues to break new grounds and take us inside the stuff you never get to hear about in Hollywood. This week, Kev details events leading up to a meet and greet with David Duchovny, as well as details on what happened with Kate Hudson.
The meeting came suddenly. His agent called our casting mistress – having heard I was in town, doing the rounds – and said that David wanted to meet. Not necessarily to be in the movie, as he was doing an Ivan Reitman flick during the time we were to be shooting Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. He just wanted to meet for the hell of it. They also sent over the episode of the Files he’d directed last season called “Hollywood A.D.”, so that I could familiarize myself with his directorial efforts. It was unnecessary, as I’d not only already seen that episode when it aired (in fact, I’d watched it with great interest, due to the fact that an article in Entertainment Weekly made it sound like there were some minor plot similarities to what I was doing in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back), but also his directorial debut on the show the year before (the great baseball episode with Jesse Martin; he of Law & Order fame). I’m up – way up – on the Duchovny oeuvre.

News From Kev’s Academy Lecture!
- Many of you were kind enough to send in your detailed reviews of Kevin’s appearance at the Academy on Thursday. There’s also an extensive report over at Aint It Cool News. Kevin was forced to do a pretty short session due to their time constraints, but still stuck around for autographs and photos afterwards, as always! One of the coolest items from the event is that Joey Lauren Adams was seen in attendance. Could this mean she’s got a future with VA5? Let’s hope so. Many folks sent it reports, so here’s a summary:
- Scott Mosier, Monica Hampton, John Pierson, and Joey Lauren Adams were in attendance.
- Kevin started with Harley on stage and also introduced his wife Jennifer.
- The Q&A was set for 8-10, went to 10:30, when Kevin then signed autographs for fans.
- They will be in Los Angeles for 8 months making Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.
- Casting for extras will be announced in a month or so.
- Most of the usual stories were told, including the famous Superman Lives anecdote.
- Fletch Won is on the back of the slate now as J&SBSB is taking precedence. They may use Chevy Chase for a voiceover but haven’t given the flick much more thought than that. Jason Lee is still the favorite to play Fletch.
That’s about it, really, nothing new but all in attendance said that it was another fantastic appearance and that a fine time was had by all. We’ll likely have some shots from the event soon.
