The “Twitter” Report: “Red State” Locked, “Hit” Has a Lead…

November 8, 2010 Scooped By: Brad & Chris [No Comments]
  • With the completion of “Red State”, and no major appearances for a bit, Kevin is enjoying a small break, allowing him more time to tweet over the past few days. We’ve got a lot to share with you, including news that we’ll see “Red State” in less than SIX MONTHS, “Hit Somebody” continues to form on paper (with a lead actor to be revealed this week), deets on upcoming appearances, and tons more. Let’s take a look at some of the most noteworthy from the past couple of days, by topic.


    On “Red State”…

      We’re picture locked on RED STATE. Running time: 97mins (w/credits). Sundance watches Monday. Contingency plan for a pass in place. #Ready

      Via @itsthattroyguy “Any prospects on distro?” With a cast like ours & a $4mil budget? It’s a no-brainer purchase for any distrib OR studio.

      @nosajdabeno “is the lack of time spent on RedState due to your lack of interest/excitement for the film?” Opposite: made the flick with all the unbridled need & desire of a high school virgin trying to fuck before his parents come home. Had 3yrs to prep; hit set, crushed.

      Via @docERtrauma “What % of a film’s budget goes to talent vs operations?” In the coming weeks, I’ll publish our RED budget so you can see.

      Via @swickster “depressed that’ll be at very least 6 months b4 Red State goes wide” Nah – six months from now, you’ll have seen RED STATE…

      Via @solidpython “When do you unleash a RedState teaser upon the world” If we get into Sundance, I’ll put the teaser online. #FingersCrossed

    On “Hit Somebody”…

      Via @BluMeaning “Now that you’ve done horror, any other genres you want to try?” Sports. Wrote another 10 pages of HIT SOMEBODY last night.

      Via @KevSaund “Can you say who it is?” My HIT SOMEBODY lead? Sure – we’ll talk about it on BABBLE-ON next wknd: http://smodcast.com/babbleon

      Via @AdamAbbott “RedState had a short shoot time. Will #HitSomebody be the same?” I’d say it’ll take roughly double the time we did RED in.

      Via @LouisPJr “Your first choice lead for Hit Somebody passed” Already had my new guy shortly thereafter. And he’s perfect. #SeeItAllWorksOut

      Via @Psymin1 “Why not film in Michigan?” That’s where we’re shooting HIT SOMEBODY next fall, once @ThatDavidKlein is done on TRUE BLOOD.

    On SModcast and SModcastle Shows…

      It’s SMunday SMorning! Time for #SModcast with me & @SMosier! SMod144: Dance 10, Looks 3 – http://smodcast.com/main.html #BarbarianBoobs

      Get ready to gimme yer wallets & purses: I just posted the new @SModcastle schedule for the next 2 weeks! http://smodcastle.com/tickets.html

      Via @fuckmikesmom “no more 2 shows in one night @SModcastle” Starting 11/17: Having Sex, w/Katie Morgan at 7:30, Bagged&Boarded at 9:00.

    On past and upcoming live appearances…

      Via @jaybwebb “too fat for 40 online!” Watch it FOR FREE, using the @EpixHD 14 day free trial: http://epixhd.com/kevin-smith-too-fat-for-40/

      Via @tom_jorgensen “Too Fat for 40 was awesome, are we gonna get a longer cut on the DVD release?” Yup: all 4 hours of it, plus bonus stuff.

      If you dig us… http://smodcast.com/getold …we will cum. Get tix for JAY & SILENT BOB GET OLD… LIVE! http://jayandsilentbobgetold.com

      Via @KikiPassion “did you have fun in Kitchener?” I did. Great room, great crowd. Went almost an hour over because it was hard to leave.

      Via @RChazzChute “I learned a lot from you last night in Kitchener. Here’s the piece about it: http://bit.ly/aB7ic7 ” Love it, sir. Go! GO!

      Via @vincent404 “any plans on taking Smodcast on the road to Austin” Yup.

      Via @mybrainhurt69 “r u goin to come to England and do a smodcast sir?” That and SO much more, sir. #StartSavingYourPenniesFor2011WithKevin

    And finally, this one didn’t really fit any of the above categories, but sounds quite interesting…

      Via @LovelyLocLady “Will you ever release a film via iTunes?” @JayMewes & I are working on a cartoon we’re hoping to do exactly that with…
