Kevin & “Clerks” @ The Nuart: Recaps!

February 2nd @ 5:56 pm | No Comments » | Scooped by Steve Keyes, Kritik, Chris Ryall, Jeff Tucker

  • Kevin was back at the Nuart on Friday, with a beautiful print of “Clerks” for the big screen, followed by a sit down Q&A with “movie geek” Marc Heuck as well as the always enjoyable audience Q&A. Kevin even stuck around until 5:30 AM to sign a few autographs (including one woman’s back, which she’s getting permanently inked), take photos, and meet fans. As always, Kevin made a few new announcements during the evening. Steve sent us a summary that we thought covers all the big stuff very well, so we’re going to let him take it away:
1. First off No announcement this month. He said in about 1-2 weeks. It is related to his next movie tho. From what I gather it may or may not be one that is announced already (Ranger Danger, Fletch Won). He wouldnt tell us anything since we would spoil it for everyone 😉 But he did say this: “Once I’m allowed to talk about it, you won’t be able to shut me up” Should be worth the wait.

2. He once again restated about no Lee in Fletch so that is not the announcement.

3. Official opening date (as of now) of the west coast Secret Stash is May 1st. There will be a Stash Bash to celebrate the grand opening.

4. Kevin and company have pretty much decided on the direct to DVD approach for the Clerks animated films. They contemplated a college campus release of the flicks but ultimately have decided that direct to DVD is cheaper, faster, and a more direct route towards the intended customers. He also mentioned the possibility of doing one every year.

5. Big Helium Dog should be out on DVD this year (already known info but nice to hear again).

6. Jeff Anderson’s flick “Now you Know” should arrive on DVD this year as well.

7. Mewes was there and he mooned everyone. February 6th he’s 10 months sober, that was good to hear.

If you’d like to read more about the show from some other lucky attendees, Bikkit.com has a nice report of the event available, and Chris Ryall’s got a fantastically detailed story on the event, complete with photos, over at the ‘Shoot. Don’t miss it!
