- Wireimage again proves they’ve got the BEST celeb pics with two new Jersey Girl series, one featuring Affleck and Raquel, another with Affleck and Lopez. You can check out all the mini thumbnails HERE, but ya gotta pay to see ‘em blown up to full size. Enjoy.
- This small “Now You Know†blurb appears in the New York Daily News:
‘Jersey Girl’ and “Clerks†director Kevin Smith and his wife, Jennifer, do a little fantasy role-playing in the Jeff Anderson’s romantic comedy “Now You Know.†Anderson gave his buddy Smith a cameo as “married guy†in the opening bachelor party scene. Jennifer? She plays “a hooker.†The movie, opening Dec. 13, stars Jeremy Sisto and Rashida Jones.
- Affleck as Fletch? Chevy talking more smack on Kevin? Say it ain’t so! This Canoe article on Chevy Chase said the following:
Several years ago, New Jersey filmmaker Kevin Smith approached Chase about reviving his Irwin Fletcher character from the Fletch movies.
“We talked but then he never called back. I can’t fathom such behaviour,†says Chase of Smith, whose films include Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma.
Harvey Weinstein, head of Miramax Films, also approached Chase about a Fletch film.
“Harvey wants Ben Affleck to play Fletch. First he suggested I play a minor character, but I said that was impossible because I was too identified with the character. Then Harvey suggested Ben play someone like my son and I’d be his mentor. I liked that idea, but nothing ever came of it.â€
We assume Chevy got Affleck & Lee mixed up…or did he!?!??
- Actual moving footage from the “Jen Saves Ben†videogame aired on “Good Morning America†yesterday. Interestingly enough, they said the game is going to be released to the public, we’re not sure if they will be posting it on the net, selling it, or if it was just misinformation. We’ll keep ya posted.
- Diamond has posted a few more tidbits on the upcoming View Askew “Inaction Figuresâ€. Don’t these things just look cooler and cooler each time you see ‘em? The first series is set to ship this February, so save up some of that Christmas money.
- The Jason Mewes flick “RSVP†has been spotted in some video stores for rental in Australia. Blockbuster stores aren’t stocking it but people in Melbourne could try a joint called “Video Bustersâ€.
- Congrats to the “Drop Dead Roses†team, who just won “Best Comedy†at the Hollywood Underground Film Festival in San Francisco.
- One lucky UK Askewbian will win a free “Evening With Kevin Smith†DVD. Visit the UK Askew website for details.
- Finally today, it’s WAY down on the page, but if you do a “Findâ€, you’ll see a Clerks-inspired “If You Plan To Shoplift, Please Let Us Know†sticker for sale.
