  • Due to the reschedule, we’re hearing that there MIGHT be a handful of tickets left for Kevin’s appearance, now scheduled for February 21st, at the Bergen Performing Arts Center – The show happens THIS SATURDAY at 8 PM. Jersey based shows are always fantastic with a great crew on hand to enjoy, so if you’re in the area, it’s worth the trip. Visit the Bergen’s website and look up the event to purchase any available tickets that may be left. Don’t delay, as we have a feeling these are gonna go fast now that the open seats have been freed up.
  • Kevin capped off Toronto week with an appearance in Ohio late last week, and we’ve got photos to prove it. Fans report another crazy evening, which even included a sign language translator whom Kevin enjoyed messing with a little bit. Click above for a few angles on the evening, with thanks to Jana for the snaps!
  • Here’s a quick blurb from the Edmonton Sun involving a few quotes from Kevin on working with the hilarious Seth Rogen:

      “He’s a good guy,” Smith tells Sun Media. “And he does amazing work. Seth is a really strong actor — period! — and not just a strong comedic actor. He really holds his own against her (Elizabeth Banks as Miri) and drama is her forte, that’s for sure. You buy that relationship. They did a fantastic job.

      “So he’s the goods, man. He’s going to be around forever because he’s truly, truly talented and not a flash in the pan.”

  • Traci Lords tells Monsters and Critics that she thinks “the dirtiest thing about “Zack and Miri” is the title” in this brand new interview celebrating the DVD release.
  • Monsters and Critics completes their hat trick of interviews from the “Porno” DVD with a new one with Jeff Anderson, too. Here’s a couple choice passages:

      “…I do not know how to skate, which is always an issue, every one of Kevin’s movies I’m like “Damn, hockey again?” I should just learn how to skate but that’s not bad because Seth is from Canada and Seth couldn’t skate.

      “…That’s always the biggest thing, it’s always amazing to me the amount of trailers and the amount of trucks and everything else, but doing this, Zach and Miri, like the actual movie and those guys making the porno has a lot of the elements that we did on the actual Clerks like the hockey stick as a boom that’s what we really did for Clerks.

      So it was kind of weird being here, yes the scale was bigger, but when you’re on set it’s almost like being on set of Clerks. So even though the scale grows and you walk around and you see the trucks, you’re staying at nice hotels, when you get to set it always feels like you’re going back to the same set. So yes it feels bigger but no it doesn’t, if that’s an answer.
