Movie-Moron Gets 1 Question For The Stars

[Sheridan Passell]

Anybody keen to ask a question? (It would be cool to force Mark Ruffalo to say "Movie-Moron") -

Hi Sheridan-

I'm working with Maya Entertainment for the release of the film Sympathy for Delicious, staring Mark Ruffalo (also directorial debut), Christopher Thornton (wrote the movie), Juliette Lewis, Laura Linney and Orlando Bloom. At an upcoming event all of them are going to be answering a variety of questions directly from fans of a select group of blogs - and we'd like to include movie-moron.com as one of them.

We wanted to give you the chance to have at least one question from your readers answered directly from the star of their choice. The answer will be captured on video and posted as a standalone video specifically for movie-moron.com and your reader – movie-moron.com will be called out by the actor.

We will be doing the taping of these on Monday, April 4th, so if you would like to offer this opportunity to your audience please confirm over the weekend and have your question to me by Thursday, March 31 at 6pm PST.

Sorry for the short turn around, we just were able to confirm that the cast would be available for this and wanted to offer the opportunity to your site and community.

If this isn't the right person to be contacting please accept my apologies. If you wouldn't mind forwarding this on to the appropriate person, I'd appreciate it.  Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks,

Phil

Do you think directing for the first time was as big a gamble as your brother took?

On December 1, 2008, Ruffalo's brother, Scott, was shot at his Beverly Hills condominium,[16] with one report describing the shooting as "execution-style" in the back of the head.[17] Scott died on December 8, 2008. Police took two people into custody: a woman who is considered a suspect and a man considered a "person of interest".[18] One of the suspects reportedly told police that Scott Ruffalo shot himself while playing Russian roulette;[19] the witnesses were later released as the police investigation continued

[twaddington]

or, if that's too offensive,

Who do you think is the greatest director of all time and why?

[Sheridan Passell]

Feel like we could do a little better. Don't suppose you saw the film in Cannes Waddington?

Crazy/Sad about his brother.

Juliette Lewis:

PLEASE BE MY WIFE

<Insert ridiculously nerdy Hulk-related question here>

[twaddington]

Don't suppose you saw the film in Cannes Waddington?

'fraid I can't say I seen it bwoss

[Sheridan Passell]

Juliette Lewis is insane and would be a terrible wife.

MMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNN



I expect they'll only accept a question about the movie. Really need to decide today or it'll be too late.

[dnwilliams]

What was it that made this project a suitable candidate for your directorial debut, and (presuming you want to direct again) do you see yourself working on similar films in the future or jumping around in genre and tone?

[dalmatianjaws]

Twaddington: thanks for the Monday morning laugh

Sheridan: what dnwilliams said, I like that question.   

[Sheridan Passell]

Sent DW's question to them. Their reply -

Sounds great -

We'll get this to Mark and then get the response back to you. 

Cheers,

Phil

If it follows the usual pattern we'll never hear from them again.

[Sheridan Passell]

UPDATE -

Hey Sheridan-

There's a chance we'll be able to shoot more than one question for Movie-Moron. Would you mind sending me a couple more - maybe a one or two for the other cast members?

Thanks!

Phil

Question for Orlando Bloom: Where are they taking the Hobbits?

[Robert King AKA FrostedPeggs]

How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

Sorry, SP

[dalmatianjaws]

I'm honestly trying to think of one but it's hard without seeing the movie. I want to as Christopher Thorton something about being an actor AND a paraplegic, but can't find a classy way to do it AND I'd assume that's been covered a LOT.

[dnwilliams]

For Bloom:

This role is quite a departure from the swashbuckling roles you're best known for, and are returning to with The Three Musketeers - what did you most enjoy about playing a rock star and who or what informed your performance?

[Sheridan Passell]

Oddly enough they did not send this to me, I found it randomly a few days ago by doing a search for 'movie moron' on youtube.

DNWilliams, Mark Ruffalo is talking to you -



Second part of the question is right at the end. Why they haven't sent this to me is completely head scratching. Maybe they're doing the other interviews at a later date, and waiting for everything to be in the bag?

[dnwilliams]

You called it with the 'never hearing from them again' thing, I just assumed they didn't bother with the question. Very cool that they used it, great that he answered it at length. I wonder how many times he has to repeat that...

HULK SAID MY NAME

[ad4m22]

... so no marriage to Julliette Lewis?

[Sheridan Passell]

Looking at their YouTube channel they haven't done that interview yet, so who knows.
