A couple of my absolute favorite DVD’s are An Evening With Kevin Smith 1&2. Before seeing these live Q&A storytelling videos, I already appreciated Smith’s accomplishments and his style, although admittedly not a huge fan. But after seeing him, hearing his stories and getting a bit of an inside look at what happens in his world and how he navigates it, I become a massive fan of Kevin Smith as a person (not to mention I think Clerks 2 is actually one of the best comedies I’ve ever seen). If you’ve never seen these DVDs, I HIGHLY recommend them. They are so entertaining!
Anyway, word has come out by way of News Askew that Smith has a third Q&A/storytelling DVD on the way in October which is being titled “Kevin Smith: Sold Out”. I love the title already. The report gives us this:
This disc will chronicle the evening Kevin spend in Red Bank, New Jersey on his 37th birthday. We were there with full coverage of the event (though are saving some of the spoilerish stuff for after the disc’s release). Kevin entertained the crowd for another marathon Q&A and a ton of new tales, including the incredible saga of Die Hard 4 that you just have to hear (worth the disc’s price alone).
If you want a taste of what these DVDs are like, here is that classic story from the first Evening with Kevin Smith where he tells the story of how he and Tim Burton almost made the new Superman movie… this is CLASSIC stuff:
