Via @bearokopoulos Read the Nikki Finke article. Apparently she has to latch onto your coattails to drive traffic to her site - pathetic. Ugh. That shut-in, cat-lady blogger& Nikki Finke fancies herself the Boogeyman of the movie biz, scaring all the suits by cat-calling Toldja! from the sidelines, never risking anything in the game [...]

Six months ago, I stood on a stage in the mountains, brandishing a hockey stick, announcing (in a rather dramatic and long-winded-though-not-nearly-as-long-winded-as-I-am-on-the-podcasts fashion) that I didn’t believe in my flick’s ability to earn out after ridiculous marketing costs were attached. I told folks my weird little opus wasnt commercial enough to punch through the [...]

For months now, Ive been seeing a few You ever going back to SModcastle? Tweets. Since I was buried balls-deep in The Red State USA Tour, I didnt have the spare time to fully elaborate on our plans for SModcastle. Now I do& But before that happens, peep out the new Jay & Silent Bob Get [...]

Disclaimers up front& This is a work-in-progress, not the final script, or even the final version of the scene. When alls said and done, theres a good chance this scene might not even make the final draft, left alone the first cut. Consider it more of a sketch than anything else: an impression of what Im [...]

Wrote [...]

Twitter will introduce you to all sorts of interesting people. Like Megan Phelps. Over the last year, Megan and I have been carrying on a rather one-sided, torrid little Twaffair. There were Moonlighting-like levels of sexual tension and lots of speculation about Will They/Wont They? After all this time of doing it digitally, me and the Marilyn [...]

SMonologue #9 Via @amydezellar I need a locker-room style pep talk about continuing to write. I wonder if @ThatKevinSmith is available to act as coach? #SMonologueOn Writing is the closest any man or woman will ever come to playing God (or a god). Some will say childbirth, but that’s giving life, not playing God. Some will [...]

SMonologue # 8 Via @SteveLilley 17 years ago, you help create indie film. Now, youre creating it all over again #SMonologueOn Youre very kind, but Im just reaching back to an old model from Hollywoods glory days: were taking our show on the road. Gone With the Wind (which this movie certainly aint) didnt open on 2600 screens; [...]

Via @cinejordan Why create/adulate a god (e.g. Gretzky)? #SMonologue On& Dudes a role model. Made the impossible seem possible. That inspires me. In the time Ive leaned on Gretzky as a higher power, Ive made two flicks, sold out Carnegie Hall and the Sydney Opera House, toured the country with podcasts from an entire network [...]

As we prepare to start the annual year-long chess match with our old adversary Father (or rather, Motherfucker) Time, lets try to kick off 2011 the best possible way: by evolving. The legendary John Hughes entertained a generation with his classic piece of proto-slacker cinema, Ferris Buellers Day Off. But Hughes was the first one [...]
