  HOLLYWOOD.COM INTERVIEW  
  (FROM THE PREMIERE OF "ONE MAN'S HERO")  
     
Hollywood.com: You're Pinky!  
Rob: (As Pinky:) Yes, I am!  
Hollywood.com: I've heard all about you!  
Rob: (As Pinky:) Oh, you have! (Normally:) Well, I just sang your logo.. the, er, Hollywood.com thing...  
Hollywood.com: (Sings it a little:) "Hollywood.com, Hollywood.com..."  
Rob: Yeah, I sang that.  
Hollywood.com: You did? Now, where did you sing that?  
Rob: We sang it at the Clint Eastwood soundstage, at... er, Warner Hollywood.  
Hollywood.com: You're not gonna sing it for me?  
Rob: "Hollywood.com! Hollywood.com!" Yeah, that's... that's what I did.  
Hollywood.com: (Laughs) Very, very nice...  
Rob: Yes, but thank you for talking to me. I am... (As Pinky:) I am Pinky!  
Hollywood.com: It's my pleasure to talk to you!  
Rob: (Notices the cameraman's reaction) Dude! You like Pinky and The Brain? (Laughs)  
Hollywood.com: He's a fan!  
Rob: (Laughs) Good for you! We are so glad. (As Pinky:) We love you too! Ha ha... Brain is not here at the moment... he's in prison! (Normally:) No, just kidding. No, it's really... it's er, really been a lot of fun, and this year the folks were kind enough to give me an Emmy, so I have something to talk about other than just that...  
Hollywood.com: Congratulations.  
Rob: Yeah, thank you. It was a lot of fun... and this is... I'm a big Tom Berenger fan, so to get an opportunity to come to one of his movies is... (Adopts an accent:) "I feel like a movie star!"  
Hollywood.com: He's fabulous.  
Rob: He's a terrific actor. I've really enjoyed him for a long time... so I feel very flattered to be able to get here...  
Hollywood.com: And what is "Thumbtanic"?  
Rob: Oh, "Thumbtanic!" Steve Odekirk. The writer-director Steve Odekirk has a terrific company called "O! Entertainment"... and he's got this really interesting terrific way of super-imposing actors faces on human thumbs. (Smiles, to let it sink it... and the interviewer starts giggling)  
Hollywood.com: That is so bizarre!  
Rob: I know... and you're going, (gets a great 'surfer' accent going:) "wait a minute, you're drinkin' the bong water!" No...  
Hollywood.com: Well, you are, but...!  
Rob: Yeah, well... apart from that... it's Hollywood. No... and it's this really interesting way of doing that; and then they super-impose these thumb characters with actors faces on them, in different... it's very bizarre. So, we did one called, "Thumbtanic," and "Thumb Wars," which was a Star Wars knock-off, so all of it's been quite...  
Hollywood.com: So, the thumb's making a big come-back...  
Rob: Yeah...  
Hollywood.com: Right on!  
Rob: (Adopts yet *another* voice <g>:) Thumb-thing's happening here... what it is isn't exactly clear...  
  Fade Out
