July 18th @ 9:42 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by Ming

  • Bids, get those bids in! Yep, some more rare stuff is up for grabs over at Auctions Askew this week — We hope those of you that took some of that RARE stuff last week are enjoying it. This week’s crop is super cool as well, with some framed or frameable prints of a classic Chasing Amy article and a reprint of yet another Mallrats comic cover. There’s also a shirt from Clerks so rare we’ve never even seem ‘em. Our favorites this week though hafta be two more actual pieces used with Jay & Silent Bob – One, a sign used in the bungalow window to locate the offices, and another, some actual set blueprints! As always, best of luck, and may your pockets be deep…

  • Congratulations to all those involved with “Project Greenlight”! The HBO series received an Emmy nomination in the “Outstanding Non-Fiction Program (Reality)” category today.
  • The trailer for the upcoming Stephen King flick “Dreamcatcher” (directed by Larry Kasdan and featuring Jason Lee) was recently posted on the Cinemovies website, but they seem to be down at the moment. We’re sure it will proliferate around the web, so look for it at all the sites that stock trailers (Zentertainment, Dark Horizons, etc).
  • In the latest issue of “Powers” from Image comics, there’s a couple of superheroes that get killed who look suspiciously like our favorite Discombobulated Duo. Only they’re called ‘Nickel’ and ‘Dime’. If you’ve got a scan, send it on.
  • Those Chasing Amy region 2 DVDs have actually been available in the UK through HMV since the 4th of February this year as an ‘HMV Exclusive’ — We thought that whole thing sounded familar…
  • The weird item of the day — A San Francisco radio station is apparently offering $1000 to any guy who can get an erection in 30 seconds (without touching himself). After the latest contestant failed, they asked him if he wanted to say anything, and he said “I wanna give a shout out to Kevin Smith, director of Mallrats!!” We’re sure Kevin was most thankful.
