00:00
What was it like putting on the hockey jersey for the first time in 30 years?
00:08
Tight, tighter than you want.
00:10
Hockey jerseys never tight on anybody.
00:12
Somehow it was snug on my shoulders and my gut.
00:16
So we just upped the size and it felt, let's make a movie.
00:19
So what was the moment for you that goes, you know what, let's do this.
00:23
Let's revisit Happy Story.
00:25
I don't remember the one moment.
00:27
I know that last couple of years we were banging around the idea of seeing Happy older and what his life was like.
00:35
And then we kind of, me and Tim Hurley, who wrote the original one, we wrote together.
00:41
We started getting excited about some thoughts and then we started outlining movie.
00:47
And then all of a sudden we got really excited about what we were talking about.
00:51
And grabbing new friends along the way like Benito and Travis.
00:55
Can you see them?
00:55
Can you work with them down the road and other projects that you have coming up?
00:59
I mean, it would be ridiculous.
01:00
They were both so confident and so funny.
01:04
They're going to go on and do whatever the hell they want.
01:07
But I'd love to do something with them again because I got very friendly with both of them and I love them both.
01:12
What would you say was your happy place 30 years ago versus today?
01:16
I certainly ate enough back in the day.
01:19
The happy place was certainly involving quarter pounders.
01:23
And now today we're trying to find a happy place of, you know, a half a quarter pounder and calming down.
01:32
What was the feedback for you seeing the nostalgia factor that everybody grasped onto once you announced this?
01:38
It was exciting and like it made me feel like I didn't want to let them down.
01:45
I wanted to work hard.
01:46
Put out a movie that they all can click with and remind them of the old days and bring them to some new funny stuff and a family stuff.
01:55
And we worked as hard as we could to be proud of it.
01:59
Stepping on set, did it feel like click though because it felt like yesterday you ended happy?
02:03
Yeah, man.
02:04
Yeah, yeah.
02:04
It felt kind of weird.
02:06
It felt like it brought back great memories of people that I work with.
02:11
And when Stiller came by the set and we looked at each other, we laughed our asses off.
02:16
It was just kind of like it's kind of a weird feeling.
02:19
It's a long time in between the two.
02:21
It was a long time in between the two.
