'Who Do You Think This Is?' | Kevin Smith Thought He Was Casting George R. R. Martin...

Kevin Smith returns to ReelBlend to discuss the making of "The 4:30 Movie." The filmmaker was kind enough to give us time to discuss moments from across his filmography, he opened up about his childhood, falling in love with movies and the inspirations for his most personal film yet. He also shares the hilarious story about how mistakenly not casting George R. R. Martin led to his favorite part of his new film.

Be sure to keep your eye on our feeds this week. Friday, Francis Ford Coppola joins us to discuss the making of his latest film, we dive deeper into our reviews of it and Todd Philip's "Joker: Folie à Deux."

[dthill]

Ngl this was an off guard posting. Cuz you got me thinking “it’s not Friday is it”? Cuz to me Fridays are “Reelblend Friday” 😂😂😂

[have_studs_will_travel]

Surprise notification crew today, which given how the week has been going, seriously made me do a double take thinking it's Friday. Thanks for the momentary confusion!😂😂😂
Love Kevin Smith, thanks for letting us know he has a new movie out ; as always, KS is such a generous interviewee

Loved the conversation about the music in Kevin's flicks. It's something I never hear him talk much about, yet his films have insanely iconic needledrops and scores. James L Venable's work on Jay and Silent Bob and Clerks II always puts a huge smile on my face, not to mention pre-LotR Howard Shore's score for Dogma.

Sgt Slaughter reference in the 4:30 movie ? I'm so hyped to see it now !

Kevin is definitely talented at picking songs.

I dont remember anything about zack and miri except the Pixies needledrop

[joshpaul]

I’ve seen it. It’s like of a lazy movie. The whole thing is just perfunctory in a way, although I will say that the fake trailers within the movie were kind of entertaining in an olde school irreverent Kev Smith way. I got a little bit of a kick out of those.
