  • We mentioned last week that Clerks will be at the Brew & View in Chicago, but didn’t also realize THAT more Askew flicks would be showing there as well — From September 19th through the 25th, Dogma runs at 8, followed by Chasing Amy at 10. Bring those copies of the drinking games and have yourself a blast!
  • Film Threat again featured a classic Askew quote at their site last week: “I didn’t come in you, Pete, I swear.” – Jay from “Dogma” (1999).
  • Jersey Girl gets a small mention (along with the obligatory Gigli burn) in today’s Parade magazine which appears in most Sunday newspapers across the country.
  • In other newspaper-type stuff, last week’s USA weekend (from USA Today) ran a cartoon that alluded to the fact that Jersey Girl is coming next year (though didn’t exactly name the film). Again, Gigli is targeted.
  • A promotional video over at Gemini Films has a small reference to Kevin’s efforts to get “Clerks” made when citing past independent film directors and projects.
  • Seems that the New Jersey governor is backing a program that will allow financial grants to filmmakers who come to the state with their projects. Jersey Girl is cited as a recent example of a film that brought attention to the area.
