Kevin Smith Drops a New Porno Image, Talks Dark Knight [Editors Blog]
Published 6/29/2008 by Neil Miller at Film School Rejects
Talk about a surreal 24-hour stretch — I awoke this morning still trying to process the unbelievably epic nature of The Dark Knight, which I had a chance to see last evening. And while I am not ready to put together a full review, both because Warner Bros. probably doesn’t want me to do so and because I have not yet found the words to describe what I saw, I will say this: The Dark Knight is unlike any film you will see this year, and perhaps this decade. Moving on, it was also very surreal to wake up to see that director Kevin Smith, who we all know and love, had updated his MySpace ...

Kevin Smith Reviews The Dark Knight; New Zack and Miri Photo

Last night was EPIC. I had one of those movie experiences that only happens once in a long long time, where you leave the theater completely blown away by what you just experienced. Folks, this isn’t hype - The Dark Knight is a movie will destroy your expectations. Not only did I get to see The Dark Knight, but I got to see it with one of my favorite directors / one of my idols - Kevin Smith was my guest. How cool is that? I honestly didn’t plan to name drop, but it seems like Smith talked about it in his latest blog entry. And as cool as that sounds, and was, Nolan was some how able to completely ...

Kevin Smith Loves The Dark Knight!!!!!!!!
Published 6/29/2008 at OH NO!!
From his Myspace Blog: Courtesy of Peter Sciretta over at SlashFilm.com, I caught an early screening of "The Dark Knight" yesterday evening.Without giving anything away, this is an epic film (and trust me: based on the sheer size and scope of the visuals and storytelling, that's not an overstatement). It's the "Godfather II" of comic book films and three times more earnest than "Batman Begins" (and fuck, was that an earnest film). Easily the most adult comic book film ever made. Heath Ledger didn't so much give a performance as he disappeared completely into the role; I know I'm ...

... “It's the "Godfather II" of comic book films and three times more earnest than "Batman Begins" (and fuck, was that an earnest film). Easily the most adult comic book film ever made.” - Kevin Smith, director of Zack and Miri Make a Porno “All the things you never thought you would see in a Batman film are present in "The Dark Knight." Christopher Nolan's dark, disturbing sequel to 2006's "Batman Begins" pulls off an impossible task: making an epic from a movie with a man in tights.” - ...

Kevin Smith Releases a Shot of Zack & Miri's Supporting Cast
Published 7/5/2008 by Monika Bartyzel at Cinematical
Filed under: Comedy, Images In case you didn't spot it earlier this week, Kevin Smith slipped a peek at the supporting cast for Zack and Miri Make a Porno into his MySpace blog. It's nestled amongst remembrances of the late, great George Carlin and other morsels. This picture is awesome, and not because you can get a look at what everyone will look like in the film. Look at their faces. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that these six people are witnessing something porn-esque, and the variety of expressions is priceless. Traci Lords looks a little unnerved. Katie Morgan looks unimpressed. But best of all is Jason ...
