: My friend Ron and I wanted to know if you are part Italian?
Nope. German / Irish / English / French / Portuguese, but no Italian.
: What was that whole joke that Barrett tells Eddie all about? The kid and the priest one? Was that an inside joke or something?
Just something Rob came up with. I wanted it to look like we were coming in o nthe tale end of a long joke, and leave people wondering what could possible have led up to the punchline in question. Incidentally, in an alternate take that was blown (THANK YOU, BRIAN LYNCH!!!), Rob told the same joke but with a Rabbi in stead of a Priest.
: And one non question but sort of suck up- We LOVED the punch Ryan did to Dennis Pepper. That was just so funny how he ended on the ground. We laughed hard and had to keep watching it over and over again.
I love that scene too, it's one of my favorites to watch if I pop in the DVD.
: Great Job all around Vincent. That's another one of my friends who has said that this movie is WAAAAAAAAAAY great. Peace, Jon
Thanks, glad you and your buddy dug it!
