  • In case we haven’t sent you this way before, the
    Official Site for John Pierson’s “Reel Paradise”, which Kevin and Scott exec produced,
    is now up. The film, which chronicles the running of what’s considered the most remote movie theater on the planet, is
    slated to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this month.

  • In the December/January issue of Razor magazine, reviewer Richard Roeper writes about the “31 Films That Changed Cinema”. Clerks is given the
    disctinction of number 26. Click the scan for a look. Interestingly, Gigli took #10 on the insert list, “10 Movies That Didn’t Change Cinema”. The fact
    that the film is talked about so much still tells us that it HAS changed cinema articles, though. The entire piece is a great read, and well worth picking
    up the ish to check out.
  • Aint It Cool gave us a nice plug for the new Evening 2 trailer. Nothing new that you didn’t already
    read through us, but it’s always a fun stop if you want to see where Kevin got all that J&SBSB ammo for web talkbackers from.
  • And finally today, wanna see the list of all the flicks Kevin watched, and even more interestingly, the ones he DUG in 2004? The full scoop from the dude
    himself is up at his WWWBoard. Later!
