The Questionnaire

What are you doing these days?
Let’s see.. Continuing to make videos. Taking improv classes at UCB and trying to work up the courage to start performing live.

What turns you on creatively?
Watching great movies or tv shows. Can’t tell you how creativehard it gets me to watch The Wire or see a Kurosawa film. Or a Scorcese film. Or Coen Brothers film. Etc, etc. You get the picture.

If you were a mind-reader whose mind would you like to read?
George Lucas. I have my suspicion that it was a conscious effort on his part to destroy the legacies of his most beloved creations and I would want concrete confirmation of that.

If you could travel in time, which era would you visit?
The late 70’s. I’d want to see Belushi, Aykroyd, and Murray perform live and Andy Kaufman, Larry David, Steve Martin and Letterman do stand up.

What is your favorite sound?
It’s at the end of this

What is the album or song that influences you the most?
I can’t say I’m musically influenced too much, but my favorite song ever is TVC15 by Bowie, in which a future television set swallows a man’s girlfriend. My kind of song.

Who would you like to collaborate with? And why?
Any of the following: Larry David, Steve Coogan, Robert Smigel, Louis CK, Gary Shandling, Armando Iannucci, Christopher Morris, Ricky Gervais, Matt Berry. They’re the people that have influenced me the most and I’d smother infants just to have the opportunity to watch them work firsthand, let alone create something with them.

What drives you crazy?
Stupidity. Particularly stupidity driven by laziness.

What makes you laugh?
Alan Partridge, Kurt Russell in Big Trouble in Little China, Jeffery Combs in Re-Animator, Charles Grodin in Midnight Run, Gene Wilder in Everything You Should Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask, Jeffery Tambor in The Larry Sanders Show, Rob Riggle in Blackballed, Danny Mcbride in Foot Fist Way, Peter Capaldi in The Thick of It.. I could go on. And on. Oh and this

If you had 3 wishes what would they be?
I would wish for Will Smith’s I Am Legend to be erased from existence and replaced with a faithful to the novel version starring Christian Bale.
I would wish that Bryan Singer’s X-Men 3 had been made instead of the blasphemous malarkey we were given.
And then I would wish for lots and lots of money.

What is the craziest thing you ever did?
I once knocked a stranger out and kicked down a bathroom door during a blackout. This is why I do not drink.

What makes you feel embarrassed?
Being a bearded, overweight adult man without children shopping at Toys R Us.

CHUD, Motion Captured, Ain’t It Cool News.

How would you make the world a better place?
I would gag Glenn Beck.
