• Hey folks, what’s up? Hope you’re enjoying the new forums, it seems that things are going wild with well over 200 members and 400 posts in less than a day. Not too shabby. We’ll be working out the bugs as time goes on (those posting errors and stuff have been noted and aren’t your fault). Time will tell if the forums are needed and helpful, and we’ll tweak them as we go. With web boards at View Askew AND the Talkbacks here, if they become repetitive or just underused, we’ll modify them to suit things better. They are by no means a replacement for what’s already running at View Askew or the Talkbacks here, but just another spot to go and chat or dig up the latest information. Plus, unlike the talkbacks, they don’t bury themselves in a couple of days. Anyway, hope you continue to find them useful.

We’re off to Los Angeles very early on Sunday morning, but, barring any technical difficulties, we’ll be checking in with regular updates from the west coast for the first part of the week…It’s back to the snow and the cold on Thursday. We’ll likely have a HUGE On Location report from the trip for you soon after we return. Until then, we’ll try and catch up with you as much as we can with today’s update. Here we go:

• Seems like Jim is going to give us some regular and detailed reports from J&SBSB’s set, right down to the craft services for the day! Here’s his latest report:

• Those destined-to-be valuable SIGNED Green Arrow issue #1’s are now available from order through the Stash! If you don’t wanna wait for a signature (we say it’s worth it, though), you can get it unsigned as well. Hopefully we can get some info from the Stash on signed items soon, for those of you waiting on Clerks DVDs and the like.
• News Askew has been included on the Mr. Drunkard website, for our Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma drinking games. The site houses links, chatrooms, prizes, and pictures relating to drinking and drinking games on the web. Thanks to Mr. Drunkard for the link!
• There’s a couple articles of interest today, with plugs for Green Arrow and the new flick respectively. Worth a read if you’ve got a few minutes to spare. First of all, Green Arrow’s new run from Kevin earns a full article in the San Jose Mercury News.

This small tidbit, from USA Today, features Shannon Elizabeth and gives a bit more information on the nature of her character and the girls that surround her. It’s from an article called “Suggestive comedies seek out actress”…It runs down her upcoming films, and mentions:

• A Macintosh version of the Jay & Silent Bob Font is now available for download. Thanks to David for taking care of the conversion!
• Just cuz ya can’t get enough, another Clerks DVD Review for ya right HERE, courtesy of DVD File, one of the best DVD-related sites on the web.
• Ben Affleck’s Inside The Actors Studio will premier in the UK on the Performance Channel on Wednesday March 14th and will be repeated Saturday March 17th, both at 8:00pm.
