- After taking over Memorial Day with the biggest-ever live podcast show, Kevin’s just dropped another surprise — “Red State” will arrive over a month early, with a planned Labor Day arrival. What hasn’t yet been revealed is how or where we’ll be able to see the flick, though this is obviously a much larger release than the targeted United States tour from earlier this year.
Later this week, we’ll run a piece speculating on what venues we think the film might unspool in — There’s a lot of potential here, we’re just excited that a larger audience will finally be able to enjoy “Red State”. More details very soon. Expect lots of chatter on this during upcoming episodes of “Plus One” and “Get Jobs” on SIR.

The Twitter Report…
- Lots of “Red State” news via Twitter to cap the weekend here, including the fact that it will be the NEXT movie from writer/director Kevin Smith (not “Hit Somebody”) and that filming’s going to start in August. Pretty cool stuff, as this is the first definite confirmation we have of a start date. Some cating is already complete, though no names have yet to be released.
In other news, Kevin reveals a big international “Evening With” in Syndey for early August, and more on SModcast and the castle, which may soon be the ONLY place on the planet to catch live SModcast. Read on:

Via @1973z “any chance of a visit to Perth?” Sydney only this time around. The OPERA HOUSE! When I get home, we start shooting RED STATE.
Via @Accidental_Rob “Any big plans for your 40th b’day?” It involves a stage. And some cameras. http://tinyurl.com/ItWas40YearsAgoToday
Via @BazTinkOTheRink “Mosier working on Red State or is he doing his own thing” His own thing, sir. Which includes SModcast, naturally.
Via @LynchAtLarge “any chance of a cameo by @JimNorton in Red State” No, but I want him to play a Glenn Hall-like goalie in HIT SOMEBODY.
@RetroDLC “Have you ever thought about using digital cameras (EG: Red) exclusively?” @ThatDavidKlein & I visited the Red Studio & our eyes & boners popped at the portability & better-than-film look. That camera is fucking magic. AND poetic: Red Cameras for #RedState.
@evilneuro ” yet your candy ass is on the front cover: http://www.amazon.com/Cop-Rock-Your-Glock-Blu-ray/dp/B002ZG970G ” When you see the BluRay, you’ll know why: I’m literally the third lead in the BluRay version of #CopOut . It’s like the flick was blended with Q&A.
Last night at the Improv, #LIVEnudeSMOD crushed it! Mostly because I sat on it, but still. Come & see for yourself: http://livenudesmod.com
