Courtesy of IESB’s The Movie Reporter we have the scoop on what went down at the Mallrats 10th Anniversary DVD release and signing, which was held at Secret Stash West in Los Angeles. Among the personalities who attended were Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, Scott Mosier and Jason Lee -who showed up late-.
The Movie Reporter also has published a series of video interviews which can be viewed using Windows Media Player. Kevin’s interview covers a few interesting topics. He discusses the new store in LA, his weight and work in Vancouver Canada, Southland Tails, The Passion of the Clerks, and how he washed his hands of directing the The Green Hornet.
This was a shocker. Kevin replies to a question on the Green Hornet project stating that he has handed in his script work but will not be directing the film. He actually says he is not talented enough to direct a project of this type. I find this hard to believe. I am a big fan of Kevin Smith’s talents and I think any project that has a comic book origin would be perfect for this man. Kevin has written Daredevil and Black Cat books and has an extensive knowledge of this style of story. Perhaps he is just being humble and truly didn’t want to deal with the bull shit.
Check out the video interviews and let us know what your thoughts are.
