Bob Odenkirk

Give it up.

Stop.

Even after Mr. Show, I'm still doing, you know, trying to help Tim and Eric or being a part of all this sketch type comedy.

And I just think, well, there's nothing to say, but there's something wrong with me.

And I don't know what it is.

And it makes me go in this one direction.

Well, I've thought about this a lot.

I'm not sure I... I'll do my best.

It's wish fulfillment.

It's wish for, let's say, first of all, an evil that is so clear and obvious that it's worthy of our anger, which these movies do, especially the Nobody movies.

There's a point in both movies where...

you trip over into James Bond land and a real guy who's been established and who has tensions and sensitivities and struggles that feel very real.

And that's partly because of it's me playing them and I'm not magically delicious.

I'm not super handsome, young, muscled up, any of that.

You can relate to all these things.

They're very grounded moments.

And then there comes this point in the movie where that guy, you, are living in a movie.

And you can do things that you can only do in a movie.

The same thing happens in normal, true.

But normal is a little elevated from the get-go, I would say.
