: With the Clerks cartoon and movie sequel on their way, I think it's high time that you sought to expand your Askewniverse beyond movies, television, and comic books into yet another form of media: video games. I've posted I wholeheartedly agree that would be a grand venture into new media. I can just picture playing Sam & Max style animated game based on Clerks and Mallrats. Heck, we could maybe even get a first or third person adventure based on Dogma. Of course you might have to tone down some of the language for more market profits. The video game industry is making more than Hollywood nowadays. Keep plugin' this Baphomet, it's a great idea.
-K
on the subject before, but I've been doing a bit more thinking on the subject.
: Since Kevin and Co. seem pretty down with Lucas, I can't think of a better company to make the game than LucasArts. Many of their games are of a particular genre that would be perfect for a View Askew game. I urge any and all the VA crew to check out the LucasArts games Grim Fandango, Sam and Max Hit the Road, and Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle (all for the PC). These games are filled with such humor, dialog, personality, and flat-out fun that any and all VA fans that play cannot help but think of a how perfect Jay and Silent Bob would be in such a game.
: Please think about it. At least think of all the cash! If you released it for the PC, I'm sure tons of the Board members here would buy it. Also throwing on the Playstation2 or Dreamcast would give you mass-market access. This is an opportunity that I really think you'd be foolish to pass up. You've been so great about covering so many different media that I beg you to please think of one more!
