pepper: Pepperpot (Easily Amoosed)
Moebius behind-the-scenes pics and transcript. Why? Because I was watching this bit (again) last night, and it made me laugh (again). So I thought I'd share the funny.

WARNING: Moebius spoilers. Sort of.

The Irrepressible Mr. Anderson

They started to worry when Rick came back from lunch with a pie roped to his head.  



[Rick is trying out ridiculous pie-like hat. Everyone is laughing at him.]

Peter DeLuise: We've gotta give you a better... No, it's making me laugh, Rick. Come on.
RDA: [Unwilling to relinquish the hat] Well, then it's working.



 

What? I was MacGyver, for cryin' out loud. Dignity is no longer in my vocabulary.



PDL: See, everyone else looks cool. You wanna be the only one who doesn't look cool?
RDA: YES! [Much handwaving] Don't you get it?! I've built a career on that!
PDL: If we go for funny, it should look more funny. 







I'll just act not funny. No one'll notice the hat.

RDA: What is the option so we can appease Mr. DeLuise's conservative approach to filmmaking? [Tries on hat that resembles a pile of fat noodles.] How's that?
PDL: No, it's too funny.
RDA: What? God! It works. Let me see. [Looks in mirror, adjusts hat.] There, it's good. It's not a flattop.
[Turns head abruptly to make hat strings swing. Everyone laughs.]
RDA [Slightly contrite] I'll make it work. I won't make it funny.
PDL: [Dubiously] You're just gonna act not-funny?
RDA: [Unconvincingly] Yes. 

 

The catering staff called, they want their dishrag back.



RDA: [Looks at camera as he's given new hat.] Are you chronicling how difficult we are?
[Someone puts weird kind of tight dishrag on his head. Everyone laughs.] 








David Lean called, he's threatening to sue. 



[Yet another new hat. This one seems to be the one they finally went with.]
PDL: This is gonna look good.
RDA: [Tones of gloom] It'll look boring.
PDL: Boring, but not funny. [Rick has managed to put the hat on over his eyes. PDL corrects hat so it sits normally.] Good. Better. Much better. Okay. Now we shoot.
RDA: It must be dull.
PDL: [Trying to tempt Rick with the shiny?] Lawrence of Arabia. 




RDA: [Tucks hat behind his ears. Quiet satisfaction.] That's the look I was going for.

The Look is achieved.

I love this bit, he's such an adorable dork. Not sure I'd have the patience to work with him though.

I bought all the region 2 DVDs, up to s8 anyway. There's actually a whole bunch of stuff region 1 missed out on... again.

I love that he wants to look silly. That's just... really my sort of guy. *g* He's not all about the being-cooler-than-thou-and-put-the-camera-on-the-left-because-that's-my-best-side.

Although, admittedly, that may have a lot to do with the fact that he is a good-looking guy, and patently knows it, so presumably doesn't feel the urge to worry about it.
