- DVD Bits runs a new report from a fan in attendance at Kevin’s recent Australian appearance at the Astor Theater. A few new photos are attached as well as a nice summary of the evening’s questions. A snippet:
…When the Q&A started, I quickly lined up to ask Smith something I had been wondering for a while… what he actually thought of ‘Superman Returns’, after the year long development he spent on the film in 1996, shackled to such immense studio pressure, and the whims of the clinically insane Jon Peters. I ended up standing for a good hour before it was my turn, and for the good or bad, someone before me ended up asking the same question. As it turned out, Smith didn’t think too much of ‘Superman Returns’, labelling it “boringâ€, and slamming it for it slavish devotion to Richard Donner’s original.
- Lots of Lee in the news today. So let’s kick off the newsbites — First up, the “My Name Is Earl†season one DVD gets a mention in the new issue of FHM, page 86. They have a picture of Jason and Ethan, along with a couple of words about the DVD. If anyone wants to hook us up with a scan, we’ll post it up (our scooper didn’t send one).
- We DO have a scan of this wonderful A-rated review of the Earl Season one disc from Entertainment Weekly. Very high rankings especially for the extras, including the commentary track for the disc and that Alterna-pilot episode that we just can’t wait to watch.
- And rounding out the Lee news, Nancy Cartwright (who is best known for voicing Bart on “The Simpsonsâ€) is hosting an auction at her home in Northridge Sept. 30, 5:30 P.M. Money is being raised to fund the Devenshire District Youth Center as she is the honorary mayor of the city. She mentions that there will be Lee-signed items as part of the auction. Contact 818-882-7236 for more details.
- The New York Times ran a piece on VA Alum Matt Damon. It’s a retrospective on his career (with a few bits about upcoming films) and it also mentions his recurring involvement in View Askew projects. You can check out the electronic version HERE.
