- If you’re like us, and just can’t get enough of all of that brilliant footage Zak and Joey shot for the Clerks II production, even AFTER the DVD documentary, fear not — There’s MORE! That’s right, the guys are releasing some “Lost Tales of the View Askewniverse†videos online, NEVER BEFORE SEEN ANYWHERE. It’s like NEW TRAIN WRECK! YEAH! You can get them exclusively at View Askew’s own Quick Stop Entertainment site:
Keep up the great work, guys — Here’s hoping you’ll share more of that lost footage with us as time goes on!
- An official release date has been set for the UK (Region 2) Clerks II DVD: February 19th. Our friends overseas will also see the awesome “Evening Harder†region 2 on January 15th. We assume you die-hard fans there already have All Region players and ordered US copies from the Stash. But for you Region 2′ers, there ya go.
- The HollywoodBitchSlap website has “awarded†Joel Siegel with a negative honor for his Clerks II walkout and comments. Read it as part of their feature titled “Criticwatch: The Whores of the Yearâ€. An excerpt of their comments:
- Now You Know has a MySpace page up to promote the flick’s DVD release. You can get to it and become its friend HERE. See? Now you know. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Too easy.
- A few mentions/references pop up in JoBlo’s “Best Of DVD 2006″ column. Here’s the important stuff:
The 2 disc special edition is loaded with commentaries, a bunch of deleted scenes, and some really sweet black and white postcards of Phoenix’s Cash and “Greasy†Reese Witherspoon’s June Carter……
Ed note: The Reese thing’s a reference to the great “Silent Bob Speaks†book.
Clerks 2 (SE)
Kevin Smith fans rejoice. CLERKS II is everything movie buffs could’ve asked for in a sequel, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Its got more of the same hilarious rants and arguments (such as the ultimate showdown of LORD OF THE RINGS vs. STAR WARS), gross gags (donkey show anyone?), and just plain weirdness (I will never be able to say “Pillowpants†with a straight face). More surprisingly though, the movie’s got heart; something noticeably lacking in Smith’s past exploits. The DVD also has plenty to offer, most notably a terrific 85-minute documentary titled, “Back to the Well: The Making of Clerks IIâ€. In ten years, if Smith still has as much to say as he did here, then I say bring on CLERKS III!–
Road House (SE)
ROAD HOUSE enthusiasts have been waiting for a special edition since the day of its initial DVD release. This July we finally got the Deluxe Edition with a commentary from director “Rowdy†Roddy Herrington and a seperate commentary track with fellow RH enthusiasts, Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier (I think they were involved with MALLRATS?) and under full disclosure, also sports a sweet JoBlo quote on the back cover.
- Just a very small nod to Alanis as God in this unrelated blurb over at MSNBC. Always nice to see the folks remember “Dogmaâ€, though.
- See ya next time, and thanks for keeping us a part of your daily web diet here in 2007!
