- We’ve been getting a lot of scoops regarding the silent character named “Bob†in the new Tom Cruise samurai flick. Apparently he was on a talk show on the Oxygen network (Ellen?) and introduced a clip from the film, stating:
Tom: “Yes, I brought a scene which is right after I have just been captured and uh, this is just me talking and learning about their culture, and I think I’m sitting next to, uh Silent Bob.†(laughed as the clip began)
So is Cruise perhaps a closet View Askew fan? Interesting…
- Scott over at PVP Online has posted his Christmas story from his upcoming TPB and there’s a pretty big Mallrats reference in it. The story starts HERE , but you’ll find the Brodie line on page 12.
- And it wouldn’t be an update lately without some Affleck news, right? He’s in the Paycheck making-of located at the Apple trailer site, and talks about Gigli, Jersey Girl and Paycheck in a new interview. Here’s a clip from that (minor spoilers):
Have you seen Jersey Girl yet?
I have.
Are you concerned about the delays?
The short answer is no. I’ve seen the movie and it’s maybe my favorite movie that I’ve ever made. I really dig this one, this is great but Jersey Girl is beautiful and really an incredibly wonderful story. What I think will be interesting is the fact that Jen is in about the first 10 or 15 minutes and I think it will go to show really that what it comes down to is that the movie works or it doesn’t. Gigli was the Ishtar of our times because it didn’t work and it had a lot of attention. I do nothing small. If it fails, I go down in flame of glory. I’m like the guy who calls in artillery on his own position, like “F*ck it, bring it, send it in, we’re over-run.â€

And he also brings up the movie briefly in this New York Daily News article:
Kevin Smith’s romantic family comedy, “Jersey Girl,†is their next feature together, and “I’m very pleased with,†Affleck says. “I’m not just saying that. If I didn’t think it was any good, I’d say I hadn’t seen it. Which would also be lying.â€
Enjoy the weekend! Go out and get that last-minute Christimas shopping done. Yeah, we’re talking to YOU!
