- We can’t help but continually click the “Zack & Miri Make a Porno” teaser link that went up late last week every now and then — The lines come so fast and furious that there’s a lot of fun stuffed into the clip, and the fact that doesn’t even show up in the film — Well, we can’t wait to see what DOES. It definitely looks like Kevin has once again used the written word to push the boundaries of the R-rating (here’s hoping for one, anyway), and that Rogen and Banks’ timing is dead on. We’ve seen so much of Rogen lately, so we expected to see him throwing the lines out there effortlessly — Banks seems to also be a fantastic casting discovery, keeping up with the vibe and the timing just as well (taking the lead in the “F@cking Seth Rogen” video, and now holding her own with this).
We’re also quite impressed with the marketing approach so far. Just some little tastes here and there, very little given up by Kevin and the cast and crew — Heck, the least amount of spoilers we’ve seen revealed or pushed out there since we started the site (those couple test screening reviews aside, but we skipped ’em, hope you did, too). We’re looking forward to watching this one play out as Kevin, Scott, Harvey, and the gang want it to — And nope, we’ve yet to read a page of the script (except for the EW piece) or see a single frame of film. And unless we hit a test screening before then, we’ll be enjoying it for the first time with the rest of you on opening day. It’s great having this job, but it’s also continually fun being the fans, and enjoying the reveal of a View Askew flick the natural way.
Check out the new poll topic on the right naviation of News Askew — We’re wondering what the new teaser did for your anticipation. Fire away.

- “My Cage” contiuned its “Kevin Sloth” references into the weekend with a mini-storyline where the lead character, Norman Platypus, again fails to meet his hero, Mr. Kevin Sloth. The Thursday and Saturday strip both briefly featured the three-toed director (The Sunday strip actually featured 3 of the strip’s fans who won their first fan-art and fan-writing contest via Myspace). Check out all the scans here.
If you’d like to read the strip and don’t get ‘My Cage’ in your local paper, check it out online. Or, of course, read it in your local paper — If you don’t see it, and want to, call your local office and ask.

- Not that it’s a surprise to us and our dear readers here, but insanely popular gossip site Perez Hilton mentions Seth Rogen’s upcoming writing and starring gig for “Green Hornet” today and actually doesn’t have anything really negative to say for once, either. Check out the post and the talkbacks there for a chance to weigh in. Man, what a great time to have one of Hollywood’s best and brightest in an upcoming View Askew flick, eh?
- And hey, speaking of gossip sites, the almighty TMZ recently featured a new photo of the new Jason Mewes. We’re guessing the lucky dude’s now pulling in more chicks than ever! Good on ya, Jay.
