download via their website. Looks like it’ll adapt to widescreen or standard displays, too. Cooool.Hailed as a ‘smart Porky’s‘ Kevin Smith’s MALLRATS (which hit cinema screens a good FOUR years before Biggs had even begun sweet-talking his doomed dessert) also featured a cast of ‘hip fresh-faced’ unknowns, embraced the raunchy humour of Johns Landis and Hughes and was released by Universal Studios.
Mallrats grossed $6 million.
So what was responsible for the Chris Farley sized gulf between the meager Mallrats moolah and the ‘Pie’ profit pandemic? Jason Lee’s performance as the irascible Brody surely surpasses the cum-guzzling gurning of Seann William Scott’s Stifler? The answer? It’s down to one simple thing… breasts (or is that two simple things?). The generous screen-time dedicated to the glorious fun-bags, that just so happened to be attached to Shannon Elizabeth, proved who the real stars of ‘American Pie’ were. Whereas Mallrats limited amount of ‘T’ unfortunately resulted in Universal looking like an ‘A’.
We sort of disagree — Lest the reviewer forget the fortune teller and dressing room scenes…It’s likely just more of a wrong place, wrong time type of thing. Sometimes something just catches on, and Pie just hit at the right time. Mallrats’ video/cult success has shown the film’s popularity and that it was just as deserving.
But hey, let’s just ramp up that excitement even MORE, shall we? Wait until you read what Kevin has to say about the end of the series:
As with most comic book covers, the image up front doesn’t really tell the story inside. These covers aren’t spoilers at all; they reveal nothing about the plot. As with the covers of issues 1, 2, and 3, they’re just striking, iconic images of the titular (pun intended) character. So for those who speculated, based on the cover of ish 5, that Nightcrawler “saves” Felicia from the events at the end of ish 3, all I can say is “You’re not even close.”
The Marvel Must-Have that collects issues 1, 2, and 3 hits the stores in November. Issues 4 and 5 will ship bi-weekly in December, and the unforgivably late mini wraps with ish 6, hitting shelves in January.
Once again, I can’t apologize enough for how late this whole series has been. I’d completely understand some folks not wanting to bother with the rest of the story at this point. However (and this is not meant to incentivize; it’s more just a heads-up for hardcore comics fans), if you’re a Spidey-verse follower, nothing can prepare you for the Marvel U-altering turn-of-events that happen in ish 6. Expect some major mainstream press on that one, as well as “wall-book” mark-up prices.
So there you have it, folks, Christmas comes a bit early, then extends a bit late with what sounds to be an amazing issue #6. Kevin had some fun with the Marvel-U with the groundbreaking Daredevil: Guardian Devil series, now let’s see what he’s got up his sleeve for this one. The man hits you with a comic book sucker punch like no other. We’re waiting…impatiently!
say, another View Askew first. This new Clerks 2 teaser does what you may think impossible – Breaks the profanity sound barrier. Well, if such a thing existed, anyway. We gotta assume that every single obscenity from the film is included in this clip, which, almost certainly, has to set some sort of record for the amount of profanity in such a short span of time (yeah, we’re even looking your way, “The Aristocrats”). So, what can we say, but watch, listen, and enjoy. And if you’re at work, we STRONGLY suggest strapping on some headphones. Enjoy. All courtesy the new Clerks 2 Vlog website. In Quicktime .MOV format only.
is the best yet, and takes you right into the stylist’s studio as Kevin and Jay get their manes prepared for filming. Yes, folks, movie magic as you have never seen it before. What’s going to be fun about this series, it seems, is the fact that it’s going to go in unexpected directions. We won’t be seeing the typical side of making a feature, but rather, some stuff that you’ve never seen put to film before. We’re hoping this is just a taste of a much larger collection of footage for a future documentary, as we’re betting it would be a classic.You can, of course, watch this flick in a large or small format over at the Clerks 2 blog site, with Apple’s Quicktime. The quality is excellent, and for those of you with high speed lines, the startup on even the largest files should be almost instant. The “Train Wreck” saga continues, as we present “Revenge of the Mullet”!
First off, Clerks 2 will have NO SCORE! We think that’s just perfect, especially if they go for an all album-oriented soundtrack throughout the film, much like the original film. We’re hoping for a lineup of new talent, as well as a return of some of the classic artists who helped make that first soundtrack such a success. Let’s see what we can dig up for ya.
And second, where will the film debut? Turns out the aim is the festival of festivals, Cannes! This would make a lot of sense for the film, given the original was there over 10 years ago at the same time. We’re sure they’ll make it, especially with Kevin and Scott’s speedy and diligent editing talents on board.
Hot off the presses, we’re proud to present the full footage of Kevin’s guest shot on “Veronica Mars”! While not an HD capture, we think you’ll be ok with the quality, enough until we can get something digitally sourced, anyway. Again, we remind you, we’re using the DIVX format to keep the size down — You can download a free player for any operating system at the Official Divx Site. Think of it as the MP3 of video. Clean, compressed, quality for your PC.
Kevin surprised us by appearing in not just one, but TWO scenes of episode 2 of Veronica’s second season. The first season is available on DVD this Tuesday, by the way. Fans and critics hail it as one of the best on the tube right now.
In the first clip, you’ll see Kev’s initial appearance on the program — On television. The second scene, where Kevin and Kristen Bell (Veronica) share the screen, is where Kevin hits his stride. Watch him joke about weight, Goth kids, serve a slushie, and even do a little flirting. It’s another great turn for him, and runs a full 2 and a half minutes.

Oh, and by the way, folks, if you want a nice clean alternative to Divx that works on ANY system, and plays a TON of formats, check out the VLC Media Player. You’ll dig it. It’s free, too.
