Charlie Brown is the one person I identify with. C.B. is such a loser. He wasn't even the star of his own Halloween special.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Bruce Lee was the first star I idolized. Growing up as a Chinese American, there weren't many people like me on the big screen.
I wasn't around when Nic was playing Donald. I was around with Charlie.
With Charlie Brown, it was about loneliness and isolation. I always thought that the thing about Charlie Brown and those characters was the absence of the parents. Half the strip was about who wasn't there. The parents were never in the picture.
When I was a kid, I always looked up to people like B.B. King and Ray Charles.
I'm an enormous admirer of Christopher Lee. He's somebody, along with Vincent Price, who I celebrate, and I wanted my movies to show that celebration and that honoring of these great film stars that were unafraid to go into horror and Grand Guignol and the macabre.
I was asking Charlie the most important questions, and you heard the answers.
Charlie Brown's good. I always had a little crush on that Lucy. I thought she was kind of a hot little brunette.
I was a big 'Charlie Brown' fan as a kid.
I didn't know Charlie before doing the movie, but I was a huge fan of the British Queer as Folk.
I remember that Charles Schulz, at the end of his life, had eyes full of tears for Charlie Brown. I thought about the reason for all his emotion: he had lived for 50 years with them.
