Vulgarthon West: The Latest Dates!

January 21st @ 8:39 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by Brad & Chris

  • Kevin hit us up with the latest information on the upcoming Vulgarthon West. The event WILL happen, though theaters are giving us a tough
    time on the Monday that we’d so like to have. So, Kevin’s now looking for a date towards the end of March where a Monday could be had (which would allow
    those of us making the trip into town a weekend to pad it up with). Here’s Kevin:
The 21st [February] is out, because the theater wants their screen on the long President’s Day Weekend. It’s a bummer, but there it is. They were also
giving us a hard time about the 28th (or any Monday, really), and were suggesting March 1. But that’s a Tuesday, and I think a Monday would be better.

So, in an effort to give everyone more time (and maybe secure ourselves a Monday, so that if anyone’s coming in from out of town, they can make their trip
a long weekend), we’re now looking at later in March – perhaps the 21st or the 28th.

More news when we get it.

Stay tuned. We’ll keep ya posted.

  • “Pauly Shore Is Dead,” a movie written by, directed by, produced by and starring Pauly Shore, is playing at the Coolidge Corner Theater
    in Brookline, Massachusetts (which is practically in Boston) at MIDNIGHT tonight and tomorrow, complete with a Q&A session with Shore himself following the
    film. The movie, which won the Audience Choice Award at the 2003 Slam Dunk Festival, is a satire of both the concept of being famous for dying before your
    prime and a self-satire of Pauly Shore’s career. Why are we telling you this? The film is also THE ONLY feature length film ever released in which Jason
    Mewes actually plays himself! He’s in it along side dozens and dozens of other A-list and B-list celebrities playing themselves. Check it out if you’re
    nearby, this is one of the few places we’ve heard it screening.
  • Diamond UK Previews hss again posted the Silent Bob Speaks book, though only with a
    UK price right now, suspiciously. So, we’re still unsure of a US date. This is the book that collects all of Kev’s Arena columns, and more.

  • And finally today, care for some fun stats? UK book “The Moviegoer’s Compaion”
    has the tally on Silent Bob’s spoken word, from all 5 flicks! Click the pic for a look, if you’re curious. But before you look, can you guess which
    flick Bob speaks the LEAST in? And the most? Later!
