Features


Since Dogma, we’ve created special areas of News Askew dedicated to the films during their production. Not only is this the place to read stories just on the films themselves, but we’ve also collected photos, videos, interviews, and lots more exclusive stuff that you can’t find anywhere else. We like to think they’re the most complete places on the web to get the latest information on a View Askew production while it’s happening.

What’s going on? LOTS of stuff. Kevin and crew make regular appearances, both live and in the wide variety of multimedia formats in this busy age. Check this spot out to find out where you can catch Kevin and friends, live in person, on the tube, or on the web.

Live events? News Askew was there. From the opening of Stash east and west, to the first (and every subsequent) Vulgarton, to the sets of Dogma, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, Jersey Girl, and Clerks II — Yep, we were there. In-depth, personal coverage that you can’t find anywhere else, like only we can bring it to ya. That’s News Askew On Location.

We don’t just watch DVDs…We REVIEW ‘em. And how. Our DVD reviews go deeper than any other site on the web, with in-depth looks at the stuff YOU care about — Sure, you love the film, but what about all those extra goodies? Easter eggs? How’s the commentary? What other surprises are in store for me? View Askew DVDs are known as the most packed in the industry. This is the place for the most packed REVIEWS of those DVDs. Anywhere. We promise.

Over the years, we’ve been sent quite a few files to share with the world. The geeks call them “binaries”. We call them simply Files Askew. Check out this section for over 10 years of fonts, games, programs, wallpapers, and so much more. All arranged by film for your scrolling pleasure.

Sure, View Askew does movies. And TV. But what else? We LOVE comics. So does Kevin. Heck, the guy owns 2 of the coolest comic book shops in the land. It’s only natural that View Askew’s got a comic branch as well. Check this area for the complete rundown of all the View Askew related books out there, whether part of the Askewniverse or the modern classics written by Kevin himself.

Dusty cardboard boxes. Forgotten file folders. Crashed hard drives. That’s what Retro Askew is all about, folks — Those lost tidbits of goodness that happily come back to us, whether thru the miracle of spring cleaning, a mysterious package, or just something we never posted before. We’ve unearthed some multimedia gems from the pre-News Askew days in here, and continue to offer up the classics as they become available. Hey, just ‘cuz they’re dated doesn’t mean they’re not cool. Clips age like a fine wine ’round these parts.

You like us? We like you, too. Here’s a selection of what we feel are some of the best companion sites to News Askew. We think you’ll dig them, too.

Web awards aren’t as varied as they used to be, but back in the day, in the infancy of the web, seemed like everyone had awards to hand out — News Askew was noticed by a lot of said places, and dang it, we’re proud to have caught their eye.
