• Well, suddenly that counter’s past 6 MILLION already! The site is going nuts lately, thanks to lots of plugs from other sites, word of mouth, and of course the trailers and the new film arriving this August. Over the past 4 years, we’ve been growing at a geometric rate, and we’d again like to say thanks to everyone for sticking with us, for passing the word on about the site to others, for the constant support, for sending in the scoops, and for continung the tradition of proving that View Askew fans are some of the best in the movie biz. Thanks again, everyone, for keeping the site going. We’re happy to have spent another million hits with ya, and look forward to the next bunch.

We’ll be attempting to squash some bugs here at the site to make your stay more pleasurable. If anything seems majorly wrong, let us know and we’ll get to it ASAP.

Just a way to present some smaller clips that those of you with slower modems can download without much hassle.

Alright then, let’s get on with today’s chunk ‘o news…
