  • “Clerks” will be shown (35mm print) at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL (just outside Chicago) at Norris University Center on Friday, September 24 at 11:30PM and Saturday, Sept. 25 at 6:30PM. Admission is 3 bucks. Go and fillthem seats up!
  • The DareDevil #1/2 issues that were only available through order in Wizard have started to ship. The story basicallyrevolves around the introduction between Kingpin and Mysterio. There’s some hilarous pics in the issue with Kev, Joe, & Jimmythat we’ve got for ya, along with a copy of the certificate of authenticity that comes with the book (since it’s rare) and,of course, the cover. All of it can be found on our DareDevil page. The DD page will most likely go dormant until Kev returns to the series, now. We’re still reading though. We’re hooked!
  • Entertainment Weekly‘s latest issue discussees the Top 100 movie moments. Kevin’s surprisingly missing from the Top100 list, except for his picks for the Top 5 comic book movies, however Amy does get an honorable mention of sorts:
BEYOND THE TOP TEN
A selective guide to some other ’90s treasures

7. Chasing Amy (1997) The easy comic rhythms of Kevin Smith’s mostaccomplished film propel a sophisticated, philosophical story ofmodern-day morals and desires.

Damon & Affleck are also named as the best offscreen duo of the 90’s in this section.

  • We dunno if it was because of the popularity due to our mentioning of their abridged Clerks script the other day, butThe Editing Room has now posted abridged scripts for Mallrats and Chasing Amy as well!
  • The VH-1 Storytellers Episode Featuring Alanis will premiere Sunday, October 3rd, at 10:30 PM ET. Here’s what she says about “Still”:
* “Still”: This song was inspired by Kevin Smith’s new film, “Dogma,” in which Alanis plays the role of God. The film is Smith’s “take on Catholicism and God in general…I hadn’t written anything in a long time and it felt really great…the lyrics are things I’ve thought a lot about lately…this is my take on what I believe God is.”
