Exclusivity: Kevin Smith of indicates talk plan off the distribution off State off `, answers one pension history, neckt ton the framework off Somebody off the blow `

Is Kevin Smith planning to retire from filmmaking following his announced hockey film Hit Somebody and a third and final Clerks movie? A few of the blogs are reporting on a selected comment made by Smith from an interview published in this week’s Boston Phoenix (found via NerdBastards). Here is what Smith told interviewer Barry Thompson:

“Red State is done. Next step is the hockey movie, Hit Somebody. Then I’m done. There’s possibly a Clerks 3. If I have something to say in my late 40s about being in my late 40s, I’ll think of [Clerks'] Dante and Randal. Shy of that, I don’t have any more movies I want to make.”

We decided to contact Smith to see if the quote might have been taken out of context, and find out the real story direct from Silent Bob himself. Smith has given us permission to reprint his response on the site.

In addition to his “retirement” response, Smith gives us a couple tidbits: The lead for Hit Somebody will be announced on Monday and the surprising revelation of how Smith hopes to secure a distributor for his finished indie horror film Red State. Read the full response, after the jump.

The following is Smith’s E-Mail:

This isn’t news. Y’know what is news? That RED STATE podcast – and we give it away every week FOR FREE. Y’know what else is news? That Richard Kelly podcast. That’s one INSANELY juicy and useful document if you’ve ever been interested in making a film, or even if you’ve just wondered about the vagaries of the movie biz.

But THIS “retirement” crap? Not news so much as another sad example of how fucking lazy movie pr ess has become: they cannibalize stories by other writers just to have something to post on their own blogs. Yours was the only website that bothered to go DIRECTLY to the source, Peter – other cats ran articles without even tossing a Tweet my way to check veracity. And I answer Tweets like I answer the dinner bell: often & much. While sweating. And already eating something else.

I’ve always said (since CLERKS, even) that I’ve got about ten films in me (that info might even be on my Wikipedia page). And COP OUT notwithstanding (solely because I didn’t write it), HIT SOMEBODY is the 10th film I’ve got in me. At this moment in time, I’ve got no other flicks I wanna make. The musing about a possible return visit to the View Askewniverse with a third CLERKS is something I’ve been doing since CLERKS II, but I’ve always opened said musings with the disclaimer “If I ever wanna make a flick about being in my 40′s, I’ll think of Da nte & Randal first.” There are no concrete plans for a CLERKS III.

The author of the Boston Phoenix piece did a really nice job of not hyping that throwaway factoid in the article and turning it into the exact piece of specious bullshit “news” the websites you mentioned are trying to create of it.

You want REAL Kevin Smith news? Listen to HOLLYWOOD BABBLE-ON tomorrow morning and I’ll tell you who the lead in HIT SOMEBODY is gonna be. Or download the RED STATE OF THE UNION podcast this Tuesday and find out what actors passed on the flick! THAT shit’s Kevin Smith news, son!

But if you can’t wait ’til then? If you’ve GOTTA have some Kevin Smith news to hold you over? Here’s something that’s not so much news as my stated intentions for RED STATE: if it gets into Sundance, my plan is to pick the RED STATE distributor right there – IN THE ROOM – auction style. Might even bring up a professional auctioneer to make it fun and unintelligible. And if you’re a multi-millionaire who can’t make it to the first screening of RED STATE, fear not: maybe we’ll set up an eBay page for the post-screening bid-calling as well.

See? With a little diligence on a newsie’s behalf, not only did he get to the bottom of his story, he got some exclusive shit nobody else has as well! And it’s not like Peter’s got a secret line to me. I’m WAY reachable. I’m so tired of doing lazy fucker’s jobs FOR them – especially when they’re the same lazy fuckers who’re screaming “YOUR MOVIE SUCKS!” a month later anyway. Some of your peers need to act a little less entitled and a little more Sciretta.

You’ve gotta respect that Smith, who made first made it big at Sundance with Clerks, is again trying to push the boundaries or independent filmmaking. The bidding usually goes on behind closed doors, but of course, nothing is private for Smith.

Fight by Jean Claude Van Mrs wanting quietly

Jean Claude Van Damme has just announced he is going back in the ring, as I learned recently on MiddleEasy.com.

Van Damme is scheduled for a K-1 fight against Thai Fighter Somluk Kansing in 2011 in Las Vegas. JCVD boasts a 20-1 kickboxing record, and all of those wins were by knockout. But Van Damme will really have to hit the bag to freshen up from his 28 year lay-off to go up against this Olympic Gold Medal winner and Muay Thai fighter.

Little training course: New tie-clip off Spider One off `: Cheat far too âBatman Live off Dark â; the origin off Robin wants say

Julie Taymor‘s musical Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark is the holiday gift that keeps on giving in 2010. You want to see Spidey flying onstage? How about the musical version of J. Jonah Jameson and Kraven the Hunter? It’s all right here in two new video spots. Plus, just because Spidey can’t have all the fun on stage, there’s some newish info about Batman Live and how Robin figures into the performance.

Before we go any further, here’s the TV spot for the Spider-Man musical, courtesy of Bleeding Cool.

I’ve laughed about the costume designs for Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark, but as I see more clips of the stage set and performance I can’t deny that it is a wildly ambitious project. That doesn’t necessarily translate to ‘good,’ but the set designs and the fact that there are people flying all over the stage is pretty impressive.

On the other hand, I’m still chuckling over the Kaiju Big Battel version of J. Jonah Jameson that we see in that ad, and Kraven and Carnage in motion don’t look much better. Here’s another video clip, originally from Facebook, showing a bit more behind the scenes action, including a few more stunts that hopefully won’t break any more of the cast’s limbs.

Finally, check out the spot advertising tomorrow’s edition of 60 Minutes, during which there will be a puff piece on the musical. This spot has some good (?) footage of Green Goblin erupting in a minor shower of sparks. No, I don’t know what that’s about, either.

This is the official rundown on the Spidey musical:

Featuring direction by Tony® Award-winner Julie Taymor, music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy® Award-winners Bono and The Edge, a book co-written by Taymor and Glen Berger and one of the most iconic title characters of all time, SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark is the most ambitious production ever undertaken on Broadway and finds astonishingly fresh ways to tell a story inspired by over 40 years of Marvel comic books. The show follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he’s bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek suddenly endowed with incredible powers soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains put both his physical strength and strength of character to the test. SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark will thrill the audience through a unique entertainment experience in ways never- before-dreamed-possib! le in live theater.

Meanwhile, from the Manchester Evening News (via CBM) comes a few nuggets of info on Batman Live, which will be an arena performance rather than a theater-based one. (The difference being venue size.) Producer Nick Grace, who is also behind Walking With Dinosaurs and Mamma Mia!, says “we decided against theatres because you can’t do things on a huge scale. In the arenas you can have pyrotechnics and large video screens and lots of action. An event like this deserves to be in a big space.”

The report says Batman Live will tell the story of Bruce Wayne adopting orphaned circus youngling Dick Grayson, and how the boy becomes sidekick to Batman. Along the way, The Joker, Riddler and Catwoman will be introduced.

The producer also describes how the stage will be built with a runway that extends into the audience in order to bring the action right into the seats, while a 130 video screen acts as backdrop behind the action. There will also be a full-scale Batmobile driving onto stage.

It is not a musical, but a dramatic show with a storyline which tells the origins of Batman’s sidekick Robin. There is dialogue but the scenes are short, snappy and full of action. We basically wanted to bring the excitement of a comicbook to stage.

My its, my its, whom larva the YE?

November 27, 2010My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done? (2009) ***1/2Directed by Werner HerzogMy tweet:My Son My Son What Have Ye Done? (2009)- Parodies of Herzog cliches aside, this is a fascinating meditation on paranoia. ***1/2 of 5Other thoughts:I wasn't a huge fan of Herzog's Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, not because I thought it was too weird, but because I thought its formulaic identity stifled Herzog's vision. The result ended up being watered down Herzog/floured up psychological crime drama. One of my favorite films of the past few years, Rescue Dawn, was Herzog working within the formula of the prisoner of war film while staying true to his flavor. That film was taut and focused; Bad ! Lieutenant was flimsy and sloppy. My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done, which was produced by David Lynch, is Herzog at his most allegorical. He's not working within any formula or framework at all, except maybe within the milieu of his own long offbeat career. The story itself is ultimately a MacGuffin since this movie is an exploration into the logical progression of paranoia flourishing within a meaningless world.Michael Shannon plays Brad McCullum who just killed his mother with a sword at his neighbor's house and is now taking hostages inside of the house he shares with his mother and his fiancee Ingrid, played by Chloe Sevingy. It's through conversations between a police officer played by Willem DeFoe, Ingrid and play director Lee Meyers, played by Udo Kier, that we learn of the trigger that began Brad's downward spiral which causes his ultimately unraveling. We're taken on an odd journey of attempted fulfillment led by an inner voice, which saved his life during a kayak! ing trip to Peru. It's this voice that Brad believes to be God! , and Go d tells him to navigate life in increasingly illogical ways.Clearly, Herzog sympathizes with Brad's psychoses, and there's a sense that Herzog sees himself going down a similar path if he were ever to lose his own sense of self and self-control. That being said, there are a handful of moments where the actors freeze or stare directly at the camera or experience the world in slow motion that come off like someone parodying Herzog's work. Yet, the film's not comedic or self-referential enough to sell these moments, so instead they come off pedantic, pretentious and, worst of all, expected. Herzog simply lets his own meditations go too far, and as a result, at times he disengages his audience from an otherwise fascinating and engrossing journey into madness.We're invested in how this standoff with police will ultimately turn out, and through it all, we're treated with wonderful performances by DeFoe, Sevigny, Kier and especially Shannon, who has no problem carrying a film this ! unconventional on his shoulders. Some of the supporting performances, including Grace Zabriskie as Brad's mother and Brad Dourif as his ostrich-raising Uncle Ted, go a bit too far into absurdity, as if the actors read to the end of the script and decided to play their roles with a knowing nod to Herzog's conviction. Sevigny, Kier and Shannon on the other hand play it straight, never once winking towards the camera (besides the moments mentioned earlier), and it's their performances which make the film interesting and complicated. This isn't really a performance piece; if so, it would be unbearably trite. Too bad Zabriskie, Dourif and even Herzog himself navigate too closely within that interpretation of the material.The successes outweigh the failures, and what's left is an arresting and compellingly bizarre exploration into one man's lost battle within a fundamentally brutish world.

Black of narcissuses the shoes off talk

November 25, 2010Black Narcissus (1947) ****Directed by Michael Powell & Emeric PressburgerMy tweet:Black Narcissus (1947)- A bit rushed and unfocused, but it's gorgeous, well-acted and truly disturbing. Burrows under the skin. **** of 5The Red Shoes (1948) ****1/2Directed by Michael Powell & Emeric PressburgerMy tweet:The Red Shoes (1948)- Good story. Transcendent ballet sequence. Visually one of the richest films I've seen. ****1! /2 out of 5Other thoughts:As I've been following Filmspotting's Powell/Pressburger marathon, I've been basically delighted and impressed with all aspects of all four films I've seen thus far--the other two being The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp (1943) and A Matter of Life and Death (1946). Not surprisingly, cinematographer Jack Cardiff's visuals especially stand out, allowing the films to take on an almost other-worldly, ethereal quality unlike anything else I've seen. A Powell/Pressburger film is not just any other film. It's whimsical and beautiful--a cinematic palate cleanser if you will.On the other hand, I'm also starting to worry that Powell/Pressburger films don't quite match up in the way their narratives are structured. The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp dealt with so many grand themes that its two hour and forty minute running time worked perfectly. A Matter of Life and Death clocked in at under two hours, as did Black Narcissus. The Red Shoes is a little over! two hours. The three later films similarly cram so much into ! their pl ots, and none match Blimp's ability to let characters' motivations truly play out. They all feel a bit rushed, giving us endings that don't satisfy as well as they could.That being said, both Black Narcissus and The Red Shoes do ultimately satisfy both in their stunning visuals and in their admittedly imperfect narratives. Both films are much sadder, darker and more disturbing than the other two Powell/Pressburger films mentioned above. Black Narcissus tells an odd story of a group of nuns that open a school and infirmary in a small mountainside village in India. The altitude, matched with the white women's profoundly naive superiority and arrogance, brings a startlingly bleak conclusion. Never has the phrase, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions," been more relevant on screen.The Red Shoes explores the high pressured, self-serious world of professional ballet and what it does to both a young composer and an up and coming ballet dancer. The young composer is immed! iately exposed to the immoralities of the world of ballet when he hears his own composition played without permission or credit at a ballet conducted by his teacher from his music academy. His complaint to the egomaniacal producer of the ballet company leads to a commission to compose a score for a new ballet based on Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale, The Red Shoes, which tells an ultimately tragic story of an obsessive ballet dancer. The novice dancer who plays the lead in the ballet throws herself completely into the role, and, after a sublimely successful performance, finds life mirroring art as a love relationship with the composer comes between her and the producer who has complete control over her career which she admits is her entire life.Both films are so visually beautiful, though The Red Shoes' glorious ballet sequence trumps anything in Black Narcissus, which does rely on blatantly artificial sets just a bit too much. The ballet sequence in The Red Shoes is s! o ecstatically beautiful that it almost completely overshadows! everyth ing else. The entire first hour sets the stage for the ballet through deliberate character and plot expositions. Everything's so dry, sophisticated and stuffy up to this point that the total abandon of the ballet itself sets the screen ablaze with such passion and energy. Powell and Pressburger wisely interpret the ballet beyond the confines of a stage and allow it to flourish cinematically, and everyone involves is clearly up for the challenge. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the ballet sequence in The Red Shoes is one of the great sequences in all film.Everything else in The Red Shoes and everything in Black Narcissus is aptly satisfactory, with solid stories that perhaps become a bit too dramatic with their pseudo-horror conclusions. The performances all around are quite impressive, especially by Deborah Kerr in Black Narcissus. My understanding is that it was this performance which introduced Kerr to American audiences, and she would go on to have one of the most im! pressive careers in Hollywood history, receiving six Oscar nominations and winning a Lifetime Achievement Academy Award in 1994. She plays a newly named Mother Superior placed in a situation beyond her or anyone else's abilities. Kerr is an electric presence on screen, even when her character must maintain and heir of calm and composure.I look forward to watching two more Powell/Pressburger films as my additions to Filmspotting's Marathon--1941's 49th Parallel and 1945's I Know Where I'm Going. I'm also eager to check out Michael Powell's 1960 horror classic Peeping Tom which is the final Filmspotting film in the marathon. Their filmmaking style is so wonderfully rich and warm, and I've found myself really appreciating their artistry as much as (if not more than) the films' narratives. Many have called 2010 a weak year for films, and so far I agree completely. Maybe some true artistry is just what all filmgoers might need to experience these days.

LOL: The production off the series off the premium transfer-talk into the television off transformers `

We don’t normally post a lot of television show behind the scenes featurettes, but this one is pretty funny. Transformers Prime executive producers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (you know, the screenwriters behind the Transformers films and Cowboys & Aliens) give us an uncensored look at the production of their new animated television series.

For example, at one point we’re taking into a brainstorming meeting in the Orci/Kurtzman offices where Alex suggests the brilliant idea “What if Megatron barfs?” Orci responds that they should “Save that for the movies, this actually has to be good.” I’m not quite sure if this is a nab at Michael Bay or themselves, but either way I laughed out loud.

Hub TV will premiere the new Transformers Prime animated series with a five-part mini-series beginning Monday, November 29th 2010 at 6:30pm ET. Watch The Making of Transformers Prime after the jump.
