It's important that this character is played real, or straight, the whole way through and not winking at the audience. It was approached from a dramatic side as much as a comedic side.
Booneville shot the ball well but that's not against the rules. We stepped into the hornets' nest a little bit tonight. We didn't play bad but Booneville played better and they got after us.
We played with intensity and we're a good team when we play this way.
It was a really good day for us. We played a top squad and really dominated. It was the perfect warm-up match -- they put a good side on the field, and we responded.
It's a hard process. But we go with what the coaches have seen over the course of two days and eight or nine games. They give us input on whom they think has played the best.
The only thing I can attribute it to, in leaving the show, is making the right choices or having the opportunity with people to develop material that is closer to your sensibility,
I'd love to become like Bill Murray, who was so funny on Saturday Night Live and has gone on to do some of the landmark comedies people like. And then to add this whole other phase to his career with Lost in Translation and Rushmore. I always felt to be able to have something similar to that would be great.
I would tend to shy away from that, only because hosting those type of things is an extremely difficult task. I'd rather watch at home.
You always want to do a good job and hopefully, I won't be in something that looks and feels like I'm in over my head.
Whom does the prime minister prefer? Tinky Winkey, Dipsy, Po, or La-La?
When I was a kid, 'Land of the Lost' was my favorite show, just because it was - in the landscape of Saturday morning cartoons - it was so unique. It was a live-action show and kids were in it, these creatures, these Sleestaks and dinosaurs. Every week was a different adventure. I couldn't wait. I loved it so much.
I hate when someone drives my car and resets all the radio presets. I don't understand it. If I was ever driving someone's car, I would never touch the things that were set.
If you are going to wrestle a bear, try to stay away from all fish oil products, you know. I mean it's tough for me, because I love to rub myself with salmon oil every day - it's a great conditioner for the hair, skin.
When you hear that you're going to be working with a first-time director, sometimes that can be a concern to people.
