Netflix Rolling Roadshow: Clerks Posters!

August 4th @ 6:31 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by BigDave, JudyMack

  • Prepare to want something — These Clerks posters were created exclusively for the Netflix Rolling Roadshow of the film next week. They are VERY limited and VERY cool. The pre-orders have sold out, though we hear a select couple will be available at the show — If anyone knows how we might snag ourselves a couple, LET US KNOW. We’d love that. Check out the Clerks posters above, and BigDave’s post for all the other variants for the other roadshow flicks, cool in their own right, created by famous rock poster arists.

You can visit the excellent official site of the Rolling Roadshow for more info and coolness. See you next week, 7:00 PM in Red Bank’s Marine Park! Q&A runs at 7, with the flick at 8:30! The movie is free and seating is first come, first served. Tons more Q&A at that page, including the fact you CAN bring food, NOT alcohol mind you (so sorry, no Clerks drinking game re-creations here). Looks to be BIG fun this Tuesday!

  • You can now purchase tickets online for Kevin’s previously announced appearance in Orlando, Florida. It’s not often Kevin gets to that part of the country, so if you’re in the area, we highly recommend buying yourself a seat. Tickets are $35 for the September 23rd afternoon show.

A press release states that Clerks will show at 10 AM, followed by a Kevin Q&A starting at 2. They claim the Q&A will go to at least 4, but will allow him extra hours if needed. This could be a marathon, folks, don’t miss it!

  • Kevin & Roeper “At the Movies” update: Kevin taped the episode TODAY. It will air the weekend of August 12th and 13th (NEXT weekend).
  • Box Office Mojo reports that Clerks II broke the $20 million mark late this week. This remains an excellent achievement for a flick that cost just $5 million to make! And the international and DVD profits are still to come (not to mention the rest of the theatrical run). Another success! Congrats to all.
  • Ben Affleck has received a great positive plug in Liz Smith’s column in the Post this week, about portraying George Reeves in his new film, “Hollywoodland”. Good buzz on this one all around, so far. Good on ya, Ben!
  • One fan loved Clerks II so much he blogged about the entire day’s experience of seeing the film.
  • Podcast “PopuCast” episode #001 gives a favorable review of Clerks II. Thanks, folks!
  • Mike Portnoy, drummer for the prog/metal band Dream Theater gives Clerks II a shoutout in his “Hero of the Day” page on his website.
