- Here’s more from Arena magazine. In this month’s issue, this J&SBSB stuff came from their Eliza Dushku interview:
In Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back, you got to wear an incredibly tight catsuit. Was there any chaffing?
I loved the catsuit. Some of the actresses didn’t appreciate them, but I was thanking Kevin every night, I was like, “Do I have to take this off? Can’t I wear it home?” It was so freeing it was almost like being naked. We were these bad-arsed diamond thieves, who were not only sexy but smart, too. We had this whole agenda and we were going to be millionaires. It was a funny set, Kevin may be offended, but it was a set that didn’t take itself too seriously.
He told us he gave you the nickname “Duck Shoot”.
I said to him, “Hi I’m Eliza Dusku,” and he was like, “Duck shoot?” Kevin is his own biggest fan, so he thought it was hysterical. He’s awesome, such a cool guy. He used to play this game with me, where just before we were about to shoot, right before action, he would go, “Right Duck Shoot I want you to say f-ing, bleep, bleep, screwing, bleep,” I’d be like, “What?” and he’d be, “Just do it,” so I would repeat what he said. Then Kevin would be like, “That was great, let’s move on.” I was like, “Ican’t say that Kevin, my family will be horrified.” But I have to admit I went along with it and the parts are pretty funny.
- The J&SBSB DVD is being re-priced for sell-through on August 13th for $14.99. No mention of a special VHS edition at this point.
