  • With the holidays here, and news hitting the slower spots as the Hollywood-types are as busy as we are, just thought that this update
    would be a splendid time to wish all of our dear readers a Merry Christmas (or likeness thereof) and a safe, happy new year. We thank you all again for
    another exciting year here at News Askew (we’ll likely look back on some of last year’s big stories before this month winds down), and we welcome your
    continued patronage into 2005 and beyond. News Askew remains a site for the people, but also BY the people, as much of what you see here comes from your
    fellow readers, who take time out of their own busy schedules to spot even the most obscure of View Askewage for your reading pleasure.

Thanks for your continued support, thanks for reading, and we hope Santa brings everyone something extra special – You were all so damn good this year.
Merry Christmas!

Star Wars: Is Kevin Involved?

December 22nd @ 11:02 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by Brad & Chris

  • We’re continuing to wait for what could be one of the coolest Christmas presents of all this year — That being the news that Kevin is
    somehow involved in the much-discussed Star Wars TV project, which will of course involve George Lucas and possibly J&SBSB pal Mark Hamill. One poster at
    the View Askew board attempted to get Kev to speak out on the matter recently:
Question : Or were you blissfully unaware that you’ve been dotting the T’s and crossing the I’s with George Lucas over the past few days?

Kevin: Nope – not even you are gonna trick this one out of me. *Goes back to humming the theme from ‘Star Wars’*

You make up your own minds, but in all our years running this place, there’s one thing we learned: Kevin’s usually pretty fast to deny, but not always
that fast to confirm. Our guess has to be that, in some capacity, Kevin might have a deal somewhere in the works where he’d be involved with the program.
Of course, proposals are just that — The deal may be in the works, but not signed, and thus can disappear at any time. We’re also fairly certain that
part of it involves not talking about it unless it gets done.

So, probably the last thing we’ll have to say about it is just that. We imagine we’ll hear confirmation (or denial) from Kevin once whatever process he
may be involved with ends. Confused? Good. We’ll see ya again soon.
