How is that book related to the story, plot and characters of The Movie Critic? I forgot I wrote this. Now I wasted my time reading it also. Go figure. Still curious if he ever saw it. Guess we will never truly know. >> Haven't watched anything he's in since Private Ryan So you skipped The Green Mile? Well, if you didn't make an exception for that one, you probably never will. It's strange to observe Willis as an extra in "The Verdict" and reflect that within a mere 6 years, he'd skyrocket to stardom in "Die Hard." It's an astonishing leap. "Nobody's Fool" is a wonderful film, but what a strange set of stipulations! "He would only appear in scenes opposite Paul Newman (though other people are in some of those scenes)". It's about the narrative and the film's story, not merely about sharing scenes with Newman! You can't help but wonder why certain films succeed despite actors imposing such ego-driven conditions. If it indeed was ego, I'm not sure, but the film worked wonderfully anyway. Another actor I admire, Steve McQueen, often imposed similar conditions because he was a star and knew his brand. Was it ego-driven, or does some actors possess a keen instinct for what works? Take Sylvester Stallone, for example. He suggested an alternative ending for First Blood because he realized the original one involving suicide wouldn't resonate with audiences, and he was proven right during testing. According to William Shatner, he taught Nimoy how to direct in that episode! 1. Changing the Boba Fett voice in Empire. 2. Vader scream in Jedi. Well, those bulbs could only be used once, and they were extremely hot after firing, so photographers used to throw them on the floor before changing to a new bulb. That is why Marty showed us that. It's a fun detail and created a manic atmosphere. Perhaps there is some symbolism as well, and what you offered is an interesting interpretation. Trust me, Rogen felt that one. Thank you. Great song.
