As much as I adore the nuances that costumes and props may influence on creating characters, I love combining performance at its most primitive origins with modern technology by donning a motion capture suit on an empty grid. Then the choices are almost 100% mine, as dictated by the script. Ideally, I'd have a career like Andy Serkis... portraying both the CGI for Gollum and the live action for Smeagol, the performances of both King Kong and the cook in that eponymous film, and now the bar he continues to raise as Caesar in the "Planet of the Apes" reboots.

[on being asked why his main character from "Red Dead Redemption" wasn't in the "Undead Nightmare" expansion pack] Mr. Irish's BAC is so high that he's impervious to the Zombie curse, which would have made everybody want to play as him instead of Marston. Show less «
