News From Chicago!

  • Surprisingly, not too many revelations made at Wizard World in Chicago last weekend, where Kevin and Jay were in attendance. We suppose Kevin’s saving
    his BIG announcement for a couple more weeks. At any rate, Aint It Cool News mentioned a few tidbits in their own wrapup
    of the festivities:
Kevin Smith Q & A: He is pulling back from directing Green Hornet, but is still writing it. He says he doesn’t think he can handle the scope of a big budget action movie like that. He said that a big announcement is coming about his next film, to shoot in November. He said it’s a small film. He promised to tell us if we bought all the “Big Ass” Jay Inaction Figures – but I guess we didn’t do it, cause he didn’t spill (hey, I bought one for the team!).

In other news, we practically walked by Jason Mewes (”Jay” from the Clerks series) who looks completely different and “regular” in that he was blended right in at some random booth in the convention hall. If someone hadn’t said “hey there’s Jason Mewes” and I hadn’t heard his voice I would have missed him. I didn’t bother him as he appeared to be speaking with friends and was already surrounded by some fans.

The big-ass exclusive Jay figures made it to the con, yet alas, big-ass Bob wasn’t ready quite in time. Look for him to arrive at another show or via the Stash
soon to complete your collection. Big Jay figures stand around 17 inches tall, and ran for around $30 at the show. They sold like hotcakes, we’re told.
If there’s any left, we’ll let you know how you can get yours as soon as possible.
