Stash Bash 2003 in Redbank, NJ! Janine and I had a chance to meet some of the View Askew crew there, as well as getting to see a sneak peek of the upcoming "Jersey Girl" (in 2003 it was still upcoming). It was a lot of fun! These are some of the pictures we took when we went. |
Walt Flanagan "Fanboy" |
Tell 'em, Steve-Dave! |
Bryan Johnson "Steve-Dave" |
Clerks - Filmed for $27,000 in black and white in Leonardo, NJ, Kevin's first film. Or buy Clerks - The Animated Series (which features the continuing adventures of Dante and Randall) |
Mallrats - Filmed for much more, this one has Brenda from 90210 and introduces a young Ben Affleck to the View Askew crew. |
NEW JERSEY! NEW JERSEY! NEW JERSEY! |
Read reviews and get a quick synopsis for each of Kevin's movies at AMAZON.COM by clicking the images below. |
Chasing Amy - My personal favorite. Janine says that she really identifies with Joey Lauren Adams' character Alyssa Jones. I wonder what she means by that? |
Dogma - This is a good one for Recovering Christians everywhere. Buy the Dogma Special Edition. |
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back - From Jersey to Hollywood, wherever those crazy cats end up, the hijinks abound! |
An Evening with Kevin Smith - This is a very funny Q & A with Kevin when he was on tour visiting various college campuses around the country. |

Kevin Smith is a movie writer/director from Monmouth County (close enough!) who has given the world the gift of a series of films known as the "New Jersey Trilogy" of which there are seven. |
Jersey Girl - It made me laugh, it made me cry... |
Clerks 2 - Hilarious. My favorite scene was the part where they argued about which Holy Trilogy was better, Lord of the Rings or Star Wars: Randall: "There's only one Return, and it's Of The Jedi" |
