: Seriously, though, I would like to know who organized the last few galas and 'thons, and are they too busy to reserve a theater house for an advance screening for the board horde.
Here's the scoop on the Dogma premiere and some other questions you may have. It was organized by Vincent if I remember correctly, and it was planned way in advance of the flick's release. Kevin planned all along to have a premiere for Dogma (or at least for a fairly long period of time), something he has NOT mentioned for J&SBSB.
Kevin mentioned at the last Vulgarthon that he had big plans for the next Vulgarthon (Count Basie theatre), and would hopefully call in some chips and get several of the Askew regulars to attend. He never said when that event would be.
Personally, I'd love to head down to Red Bank for another premiere, but it doesn't look like it's happening. The entire Askew gang seems to be busy doing other things, and I'm sure it hasn't helped that Kevin has been in California for post-production of this flick (or the fact that it hasn't been delayed for a long time like Dogma was).
