: : : New material is really not something anyone can crank out overnight. If
: : this were my board, and I was trying to work some new magic, I'd probably
: : consider shutting it down or shutting it out for awhile.
: : Believe me - the thought crosses my mind from time to time; particularly
: : when the board's full of nothing but 'Fuck ABC'-type posts (which I've even
: : asked folks to move on from). But ultimately, despite the unintentional
: : spam that clogs the arteries of our living, breathing board, I think it's
: : important - now more than ever - to keep shop from closing. Soon, there's
: : going to be plenty to talk about. And I'd say that this is the banner year
: : for such chatter, as we're going out with a bang: the last Askewniverse
: : flick, the short film from nowhere, the cartoon-related project, Green
: : Arrow, 'Bartleby and Loki' one-shot, Vulgarthon 2000, the Special Edition
: : 'Dogma' DVD, the 'Better Place' DVD, the last flick preem party, another
: : tour of duty on 'Daredevil', and more.
: : It's a good time to be Askew, quite frankly, as we're not going quietly
: : into that good night.
: : So while at the moment, all's quiet on the Red Bank front, very soon, news
: : and stuff to chat about will start popping up. Word is bond.
: : : That said, it's probably bad-manners to be asking about the "fifth
: : ViewAskew flick" when it sounds to me like it's only just now germinating,
: : brainstorm-style.
: : Oh, we're much farther (further?) along than that...
: : Relocated, for your convenience. This is in response to Tom's (Lucifer
: : Blah, Blah, Blah) post about the future of the board. Enjoy.
: : : This, in my estimation, is a delicate time for a piece of writing.
: : It was at one point, when too much thought was going into it. But I then
: : arrived at the conclusion that this is just another flick, and shouldn't be
: : granted any weight or over-thought the others didn't benefit (or suffer)
: : from. Sometimes, it's best to go at it casually, rather than grand
: : guiginol.
: : Of course, in the process of going at it casually it WINDS UP grand
: : guiginol...
: : Well, that's not a bad thing either.
: : On that note, of the last Askewniverse flick thus far I can say only
: : this...
: : After making two flicks that had some weight and depth to them, it's
: : high-time we got back to doing what put us on the map in the first place,
: : while tying up a few loose threads in the process.
: : And that's what I'm doing right now.
: : I trust I make myself obscure?
