Another TV For Sale! Want It?

November 11th @ 8:14 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by Chris

  • Hey folks, Chris here – I’m looking to sell my TV…It’s one of those BIG 37” Sony WEGA sets, really nice, only a little over a year old. Comes with a stand as well. If you’re interested, send me an email and I can send you photos, more specs, and the like. Nothing at all wrong with it, I’ve taken perfect care of it, it’s in great shape. Just looking at going to a big projection set (this is a tube TV, just about the biggest of those you can get). The flatscreen picture is excellent, many say the best in the business. Anyway, if you’re interested, let me know!

The Latest From Kevin…

  • Kevin’s been hitting the View Askew WWWBoard more frequently now that Jersey Girl has finished shooting. He’s also been answering some fairly interesting questions, too. Here’s a summary of what we recently learned:
  • An “internet exclusive” trailer for Jersey Girl will likely show up in the next few months.
  • Work is now going to get started on the Clerks 2-disc Special Edition DVD.
  • Talks are currently going on regarding the Clerks cartoon movie.
  • The release of “Jersey Girl” depends a lot on the release of “Gigli”, as they don’t want 2 Ben/Jen flicks coming out around the same time.
  • Finally, you can own the ultra-rare “Mallrats” book once given by Kevin to Malcolm Ingram himself! Bid on that one HERE.

  • We ran the scoop about Lucas’ View Askew mention during the new Star Wars: Attack of the Clones DVD commentary. Here’s a transcript of exactly what he says, and an audio clip as well (he mistakes Dante & Randal for Jay & Silent Bob, but at least he seems to know SOMETHING regarding the famous Clerks scene):
“We had this sequence and because we added it… err, I came up with the idea of adding a little schematic of the Death Star in here because the Geonosians build robots and build things; They’re a sort of construction workers. They would be the ones that probably contracted to build the Death Star and… err, they were the ones that Jay and Silent Bob worried that they got killed on the Death Star but they are after all just a bunch of large termites.”
  • ABCnews.com has confirmed the Affleck/Lopez engagement:
The pair met last December while filming the upcoming gangster movie Gigli, which they co-star in. Their romance became public this summer when they were photographed kissing in public on numerous occasions. During an interview with Primetime’s Diane Sawyer, airing on Wednesday night, Lopez was at first coy on the marriage question, laughing and saying only that, “We’re very, um, secure with our relationship.”

But a few minutes later, during a break to change tape, Lopez thought a minute, called Affleck, and then said they had decided to go on the record.

Sawyer then asked, “Are you engaged?” and Lopez replied, “Yes.”

People Magazine ran a detailed story on this as well.
