7/22/2023 0 Comments Big z surfs up![]() Do you consider yourself Dude-like in real life? ![]() The whole surfing scene is associated with the laid back, dude mentality, which is something you know very well from playing The Dude himself. It’s very much a father and son relationship. Shia’s character then helps him out of the slump and Big Z imparts his wisdom. He was once a great surfing champion and, without giving too much of the plot away, he has now become a bit of a recluse. He loves to act and you can see he really enjoys the process – in fact, he’s just great! Having seen the movie, was there a stand out scene for you?īesides all the great surfing scenes, I kind of like the scene where I’m working with Cody (Shia LeBoeuf) on the board. We were also encouraged to improvise a lot, and that made the whole process a lot more fun – it’s loose work. For this film, we were all in the room together, and there were cameras filming us the whole time capturing our movements. Usually with animation, you are on your own in a booth with a script and you just read your lines. How does working on an animated movie compare to a live action project? I don’t know, maybe someday soon all films will have to feature penguins. I mean, you do sometimes think, ‘what is that all about?’ What makes it even more bizarre, is that we started making this film about 5 years ago and at that time there was not a movie penguin in sight. It’s kind of amazing how there are so many movies starring penguins. They really piss me off! No, I’m kidding, I don’t know any penguins personally, but I like them. It’s something I got involved in when I was in high school – I love it! I’ve actually been surfing for about 40 years now. ![]()
