“When you’re working with Army and Marine Corps units, you immediately notice a difference. The Army is pretty tough, but their performance can depend on the individual unit. Some are excellent, filled with hoorah and first-class warriors. A few are absolutely horrible; most are somewhere in between. In my experience, Marines are gung ho no matter what. They will all fight to the death. Every one of them just wants to get out there and kill. They are bad-ass, hard-charging mothers.” WantFirstsMatterHardMotherFightingIndividualDifferencesClassDependsToughPerformancesArmyNo Matter WhatFilledHorribleAssWarriorExcellentUnitsBad AssMarineMarine CorpsFirst ClassCharging Author:Chris Kyle

“I definitely wanted to pay homage to what he did and use his performance in the first one as a foundation. But, I had to make it my own. I couldn't sit there and try to imitate Michael Clarke Duncan. I think that would have been disastrous. I had to make it my own.

“At times, I've been so absolutely terrified of what I was about to do, whether it was public speaking or performance. Whatever it was, sometimes it had me really, really shaking in my shoes, and I decided that I was going to do it no matter what.

“No matter what, I will always prefer a live performance. Whether it be a play or a musical, or playing music live. As long as it's live, it's the best because there's sort of an immediacy to connection between an audience and a performer, whereas where you do film or television, you're at the whim of so many different forces.” LongDifferentMatterPlayFilmForceAudienceTelevisionConnectionsPerformancesNo Matter WhatMusicalPerformersPlaying MusicWhimImmediacyLive Performance Author:Darren Criss
