There's a weapon that can be used against dragons.

It's extraordinary.

So...

So I think, although my character doesn't actually have this weapon, because, you know, dragons are on his side.

So there is a weapon, there is something.

So you can't be too complacent if you have a dragon.

Is that a spoiler?

Are we going to have to cut this out?

That's a very interesting philosophical question.

I think there has to be, I think for any role that you play, there has to be a certain amount of you in it.

For example, if you look at two wonderful movie stars, it's very hard to say which one's better than the other.

Let's take someone from down, not New Zealand, but Australia.

Eric Banner, for example.

Is Eric Banner a better actor than Brad Pitt?

No, they're both great.

What Eric Banner gives, in my opinion, he gives you a certain sense of, say, dignity, a certain sense of gravity.

Brad Pitt gives you a certain sense of playfulness.

So my impression, I don't know either of those gentlemen, but my impression is that that's partly who they are.

So the roles as we play them, there is a certain amount of us in them, of course, the way that they deliver, the way that we respond to certain characteristics.

But of course, the bulk of it is what Ryan and our writers have created.
