  • Don’t miss the new SModcast 53, posted right on schedule at the start of this week – This time around, Scott and Kevin get back to business talking about MEAT, dogs, and well, more MEAT. Surf on over to Quick Stop Entertainment for your exclusive download , absolutely free! Mmmm….Steak-ummm. Yep, Kev, they still make it, and it’s still fantastic.
  • Kevin gets a much-deserved name drop in a new NJ.com article on the use of many New Jersey filming locations used in recent Hollywood fare:


      “…Other fans know the Garden State better as the home and stomping grounds of director and writer Kevin Smith.


      Many of Smith’s films feature recurring New Jersey landmarks — including the Quick Stop Convenience Store in Leonardo where Smith worked as a teenager; Jay and Silent Bob’s Secret Stash and Jack’s Music Shoppe in Red Bank; and The Ice Rink in Brick Township.


      Like Nobebosco in Blairstown, Smith’s rotating list of hot spots continues to draw picture-snapping fans from across the country. Lucky fans might even find Smith’s buddy and franchise alum Walt Flanagan working the register at the Stash.”

  • The long-gone Kevin Smith / Tim Burton “feud” is brought up today in a Los Angeles times piece titled “Directors Gone Wild”. The recent verbal tiff between Clint Eastwood and Spike Lee brought the topic back into the forefront.
  • Yes, a veiled “Mallrats” reference even made it to a recent blog post on the ridiculous gas prices here in the U.S. these days. Personally, we gotta say the rates are getting to the point where driving habits just gotta start changing. Crazy times. Watch your wallets, folks. And we’ll see ya next time.
