Geekscape takes it a step further, by posting a spoiler-free set visit report. The lucky author enjoyed face time with Kevin Smith and star Tracy Morgan. Here’s a few snips:

About 1pm they wrapped for lunch and Kevin Smith walked from the set and said hi to us. He didnt know who we were really just sitting there. He was just being friendly.

I got up and introduced myself, but it seems as if our friend had already talked me up. Kevin and I got to talk for nearly 15 minutes today.

The real mind blower was how friendly and open he is. We talked about Mosier, about his new flick. He told me SModcast is one of his favorite things he loves to do in his life right now. We covered talk of old episodes and future endevors. It wasn’t Kevin who ended the conversation. I had to leave. See I work for a living and I was already out a day to go to the set, so i had a train to catch. Kevin told me to stay as long as I pleased and to watch the rest of the filming. I graciously bowed out and took the long train ride home.

If you catch a glimpse of the set or are lucky enough to experience some time watching the shoot, don’t forget to drop us a line. It sure sounds like things are going swimmingly up there in warm, sunny NYC. And if you DO find
your way to the set, New York’s Examiner has some tips on how to be a good looky-loo.

“Silent Bob Speaks”

Carnegie Hall

June 17

The expression “like an open book” should be updated to reflect the startlingly full disclosures Kevin Smith has been offering his fans over the past few years through his online diary, Twitter account, SModcast, bestselling memoir and, most recently, his live “Silent Bob Speaks” performance, which played to a sold-out crowd at Carnegie Hall last night. But whereas most cases of celebrity over-sharing come off as mindless exhibitionism, Smith’s divulgences seem generous-a gift to the sizable portion of his audience that takes a near-scholarly interest in Smith’s day-to-day activities, from the directorial (he’s currently shooting A Couple of Dicks with Tracy Morgan and Bruce Willis) to the lavatorial.

The latter took precedence at Carnegie Hall. After being sweetly introduced by his daughter Harley Quinn, Smith gave thanks by announcing, “So you saw what happened when I came-that! I don’t know what your orgasms look like, but that’s what mine looked like.” The audience cheered. Wearing a pair of baggy ankle-length jean shorts and a New Jersey Devils t-shirt beneath a terrycloth bathrobe, he rhapsodized briefly about his newfound stonerhood (a result of his proximity to Seth Rogan on the set of Zack and Miri Make a Porno) and accompanying weight-gain. “These days I sweat when I breathe,” he said.

Things got saltier during the two and a half hour Q&A. Queried about his friendship with Malcolm Ingram, Smith praised the Canadian director of Small Town Gay Bar for introducing him to the phrase “sloppy party bottom” and the existence of the International Bear Rendezvous, where burly gay men “get together and look for guys like you to fuck,” he told his shy, purple-haired interrogator. Later, Smith asked a husky young questioner with a beard whether he wears his shirt during sex. “I often do, yes,” the guy said, heartbreakingly. And when a pretty girl in a pink dress with matching pink stilettos, pink bra, pink fingernail polish, and a pink iPhone asked, on behalf of Time Out, whether Smith had any dating advice, he replied, “Well, the first time I fucked my wife I had an open sore on my cock.” Smith’s wife and mom were sitting near one another in the third row.

One of the evening’s rare non-scatological digressions concerned Smith’s love for Wayne Gretzky and Gretzky’s dad, Walter, whom Smith met at this year’s Walter Gretzky Street Hockey Tournament. “He used to tell Wayne, ‘Don’t go where the puck is, go where the puck’s gonna be,'” Smith said. “I swear, Walter Gretzky is the most perfect man since Jesus Christ.” He paused. “When we met, he told me, ‘You’re one of God’s angels on earth, Kevin.'”

Don’t miss our own review of this show, one of Kevin’s best ever. And of course, when Kevin comes to your town, BE THERE.

Man, I wish we’d have come up with that “directorial to lavatorial” line. Nice one, VV.

This second clip comes from the fresh “Reaper Season 2” DVD and features a short snippet of Kevin talking about the show, for which he filmed the acclaimed pilot episode. Enjoy. See ya next time. As always, thanks for stopping by News Askew today.
