I have spoken to the CEO of United, Jeff Smisek, myself.

He has this wit about him, he's such an amazing dramatic, comedic actor. There is a sort of inherent absurdity to 'Ant-Man', he shrinks and controls ants and Paul is so great as that character, acknowledging the weirdness of the basic idea.

A great animator is basically a great actor. Yes they have the technical skills, they can draw, they can operate a computer. But fundamentally they are thinking about what is going on inside the character's head, they are always thinking about what is causing that movement so it is not movement for movement's sake.

I told the male actor what to do to the victim, and the actress was cool with not being told how it would happen, it was horrific. I used multiple cameras so we got more coverage as I knew I couldn’t do more than two takes, but showing close-ups only of the face can be more telling as you don’t know what is going on. After filming it, I didn’t sleep very well.

6. The smelly kid Some parents feel the need to use the entire plane as a diaper. Gross, but true : A child reportedly pooping on a plane seat on a Delta flight last year( the parents covered the seat with newspapers — how thoughtful). And it’s not unusual for babies to drop a( stink) bomb or two during the flight. ( If this emotional support pig can get kicked off a plane for crapping in the aisle, should little humans, too ?) 7. The chatty kid Chatty Cathy is generally one of the most annoying passengers on a flight but what if Cathy is six years old ? While adorable and curious, she’s probably the last person you want conversation with, because of course she continues to ask the same question in different ways. Or maybe she’s having a loud conversation with her doll. In fact, several years ago, a kid actually got kicked off a plane for being too chatty. According to the Associated Press, Kate Penland’s then 19-month-old son, Garren, started saying ‘ Bye, bye plane, ’ before takeoff — and would n’t stop. When the other passengers started complaining, Kate Penland got mad and eventually Kate Penland and Kate Penland son were asked to leave. That seems a little extreme. Maybe just give the kid a pack of pretzels( peanuts are too risky) and offer him a window seat. 8. The ultimate nightmare kid It’s fair to say no one wants to sit next to a kid who kicks your seat, complains, talks up a storm and manages to poop themselves all on one flight. But as they say in airline business, the sky’s the limit. Passengers who survive the ultimate nightmare child passenger deserve a medal. Actor Liam Hemsworth recently admitted on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that Actor Liam Hemsworth own three kids were those kids on a recent flight from London to Australia( a 30-hour trip). The Ellen DeGeneres Show was kind of like the trip from hell, they were all sick and literally took turns to scream. One would kinda do it and then look over and be like, ‘ I ’m done, you want a turn ? ’ ' Yep, Wahhhh ! ’ The whole cabin, yeah, wanted to kick us off … I don’t know what people expect though — you’re gon na put them in the suitcase or something ?

My life's ambition is to take Being Human to such a level that a 100 years or 200 years down the line, it should be the biggest brand in the world, the actor would be forgotten, but it would be difficult for anybody to surpass this mammoth of a charitable trust. My life's ambition is for people to know that the money goes towards charity and not towards administrative costs.

You can't go after nine years and start figuring out what patterns you're in.

You can’t really judge an actor’s abilities by their career, because the business is going to pigeonhole people into whatever turns a profit, and no artist is less in charge of how their work is presented than an actor, the appeal of Vince was that within a great naturalism, he can convey fierce intelligence, complex emotion, and a real warmth married to a real edge, strength and vulnerability and danger and humor. There are essential contradictions at work that makes him fascinating to watch.

I always thought Vince was a great actor, from when he first broke in, doing these interesting and intense performances in the mid-’90s — I remember these independent dramas he was just great in, in his maturity I think he wears his history in a rugged, old-school manner. I see echoes of Robert Mitchum and James Garner in the kind of figure he cuts, and I think it’s going to be gratifying for people to see his skills put to this kind of use.
