What an insightful set of interviews with Bruce Campbell. Siggy, again, your interview with Bruce was smooth. You are very good at asking the right questions to get the individual to open up and share his point of view.

Phi, this is turning out to be an exceptional BN fix during our wait for June 4th. Tomorrow, I move on to Sharon Gless' thread. Awesome job with stringing all of these articles together. Thank you for your efforts!

Thank you for being so wonderfully supportive, Sister776. It really does mean a lot to me. I think it'll be great to have these threads on hand! I'm going to recruit a few BC-aholics in the near future to help me with sorting through some of the older articles I've got on Bruce. If only I had a full-time job as a BN researcher, all would be right with the world.

I've updated this thread with the latest info on Bruce (of his, JD's, and GA's involvement with the charity to help foster children). The cast of BN is a class act all the way.

Great job Phi,

thank you for putting this together!

Just to let the BC fans know I just finished an huge article on the man in the Sci-Fi magazine..It's issue #26 and this is the UK version but it still is a great article...Hope you guys get a chance to read it!

I've edited the BC press thread to fix formatting errors and broken/missing links. Thank you for your tremendous help with this, GolferGal! And thank you to all of those who are helping out on the editing of these press threads. It's been so much help to me and I really do appreciate it.

Thanks Natasha, I have not seen this

Here's a longer version of the BC conference call, from Movieweb.

I've just skimmed it, and didn't see any obvious spoilers, but there might be some.

Thanks for that link. This was a great interview with Bruce. I thought it was interesting that, though he has directed some episodic tv, he would not want to direct BN and take the risk changing the dynamics between the actors.
I didn't quite get all the Sam Rami talk though. I guess he directed BC and that they are friends.

Thanks Karendipitee That was a great interview with BC - we even got to find out Sam Axe's favorite book I thought he made really interesting points about directing, too. He & Raimi go waaaaay back personally (since high school) & professionally - it's so hilarious they rib each other when their shows have success!

Kiss His Ash
Burn Notice's Bruce Campbell may not be an A-lister, but the big-chinned actor is an icon, nonetheless
Newsroom – By Dan Sweeney
Kiss His Ash

For a weird segment of the population, Bruce Campbell is the finest actor working today. The star of Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead" trilogy is treated with a sort of awe among his rabid fan base, so much so that the actor put out an indie film last year, "My Name Is Bruce," lampooning "Evil Dead" fanboys. Despite these accolades, Campbell has never quite hit mainstream success, a fact he bemoans in his two autobiographical books, "If Chins Could Kill" and "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way." In fact, his current run as wisecracking sidekick Sam Axe on USA Network's "Burn Notice" may be the closest he's come to the great brass ring.

I have counted myself as something of a Campbell aficionado ever since his all-too-short-lived series "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.," which I watched faithfully in high school. From there, I gained an appreciation for Campbell's complete oeuvre, and can now quote large parts of "Army of Darkness" from rote. So when I heard Campbell was appearing at this year's Florida Supercon, the annual comic-book convention held in Miami, I swept aside the usual format of this column and have replaced it with a Campbell Q&A. I reached the man by phone while he was driving to a "Burn Notice" set.

So where you headed exactly?
We're filming in downtown Miami, but we're all over town. Sixty percent of the show is outdoors, so we have to move around.

So you've gotten to know the city?
I guess so. I couldn't tell you where everything is. I go to a lot of places in the dark and come home in the dark. I'm in the dark a lot.

You're putting in an appearance at this local comic-book convention —
That's right. Supercon!

You do a lot of these appearances?
I squeeze 'em out. If it's time to sell a movie, I'll do a few to get the word out, but I don't do as many when I've got a television show. But this is in Miami, and I'm in Miami, so I figured I'd go out. Besides, it's market research. I look at what people are bringing me to sign, and I can gauge what people are into—more "Army of Darkness" stuff, less "Xena" stuff, or whatever. That, and I get to torment fans directly.

How do you go about tormenting your fans?
Throwing dumb questions right back at'em. Like, someone says, "Can you say, 'groovy'?" And I say, "Sure, if I'm your little monkey."

You actually get a lot of that? People telling you to say "groovy" or "Listen up, you primitive screwheads"?
There's some of that—say this line, say that line. And there's a lot of the Ash vs. so-and-so: Who would win? Like Jason vs. Freddy. And the answer is nobody, the franchises wouldn't allow it.

Still, that kinda shows what dedicated fans you have. Explain the Bruce Campbell je ne sais quoi.
I think I'm as irreverent as the average college kid, and they like that. I don't think they like the straight hero role. Some people like the antihero more than the regular hero. I'm not the CIA operative, "Bourne Identity" thing. To me, that's too humorless. … Also, I think there's a group of people that like weirder stuff, more extreme stuff. And I'll do a movie every so often that suits that palate.

Speaking of more-extreme stuff, what do you think about Sam Raimi's return to horror with "Drag Me to Hell?"
I think it's gonna kick some serious ass. I think "Drag Me to Hell" is gonna make Sam feel heavenly. Now that he's done all these studio pictures, he's finally allowed to have control over his film, and he hasn't had full control since the first "Evil Dead" movie. Control is quite the aphrodisiac to a creative type. And so this audience is gonna be punished bad. … Audience members pay for their own punishment. It's a weird thing. These are the thrill-seekers, the people that go on rides at amusement parks. They want to have that feeling of thinking, "Oh, my God, I'm gonna die! Oh, wait, I'm still alive."

You've certainly got a wider audience with "Burn Notice" now, though. How's that coming?
We hit the airwaves for the third season June 4. New time slot, 9 p.m. instead of 10 p.m. I guess they want us to be even more successful. Every time I don't star in the show, it lasts a long time. So being supporting, it'll last five, six years at least. People can only take so much of me is what it boils down to, I think.

I've been disappointed myself in how brief your starring stints have been. I watched Brisco County religiously.
Ah, so you were the one.

Yeah, that was me. So you spend a lot of your time in Miami now, yeah?
Almost seven months of the year. Each of 16 episodes takes seven days to shoot. I have a place in Oregon, and I haven't seen it since February, and I don't know when I'll see it next.

So how do you like our town?
It's pretty freewheeling. Not a whole lot of rules here. And if there are, people aren't really following them. It's a collision of cultures, which is a good thing because it's something we all have to get used to. Very good-looking people here, too, which is good. And if you like sweating, this is it. Oregon is so dry my face cracks off. Here, it's a little better.

Any drawbacks?
The minuses? I'll take a few more sidewalks. It's not a pedestrian or bike-friendly town.

Anything to add for the people coming to Supercon?
Just want to get the word out to folks that want to come out to this convention. There are many, many luminaries there to gawk at. My good friend Ted Raimi'll be there. … I hope these are fun for fans, some conventions are nice to people, others are not. And these fans are my clients! I gotta make sure my homies are taken care of.

Last question. Will you say "groovy"?
I'm not your monkey.

A sampling of many articles that came out on Bruce these last couple days:

Thanks.

New interviews with Bruce are up on the BN main page and linked in this week's newsletters. Very good, not really spoilery, just a brief mention of one thing.

Does anyone know how/where to order a copy of this Sci-Fi magazine, UK version? I found a page for the magazine at scifi.com, but it seems to be for US subscriptions only. Or does anyone know if this article is online anywhere?


Patti

Thanks Karendipitee BC is lookin' good! I like how he said about the show instills hope in people - "when you tune into BN, everything is going to be okay" - aw!

no drinking game for Sam Axe! what?! he's too funny

I don't know if y'all put reviews here, or just interviews with Bruce, but this review has a nice mention of Bruce so I thought BC fans might enjoy reading it.

http://www.examiner.com/x-9502-Salt-Lake-C...Notice-Season-2



and here's the paragraph about Bruce:





Patti

Hey pwells228, loved that line - it's worth checking out Burn Notice for his character alone.

in case somebody didn't see this already
Mr Nix & Bruce Campbell possibly at Comic-Con in SanDiego
http://tv.ign.com/articles/996/996775p1.html

oh yes, I wanted to give that guy a high five for saying that!!


Patti

Couldn't agree more!

KA23

That's precisely what I like about Sam. I really like the way Bruce plays the character.






LOL!! Bruce is so funny!

Here's a new article/interview today, but the Bruce's answers sound very familar - I think it's the same press conference call that Bruce did recently and has been reported elsewhere. (Although I must say I like what this reporter has to say in his opening paragraph.)

Bruce Campbell
Read Junk - Adam Coozer
http://www.readjunk.com/interviews/bruce-c...comment-page-1/

Action-dramedy-spy shows don’t typically win awards, and the USA Network isn’t typically known for its must-watch original programming. But thanks to a nifty premise, sharp writing, and most importantly, scene-stealing by Bruce Campbell, Burn Notice has become one of cable’s highest-rated non-reality shows.



Patti

Just wanted to get a couple of the BC Comic Con articles into the Bruce press thread.

Well, that just made me giggle. Thanks BBB.

OMG! Love it! Thanks Burn_Baby_Burn!!!

JD just posted this picture on his twitter a few hours ago. Funny stuff!

That pic is totally adorable and hysterical at the same time!!!! Good Grab BBB!!!!


KA23

Already had that one saved to a publisher file, now i've got it straight in...Looks like he's about to have a 'long talk' with Michael (or maybe Jeff...)

Ya know..I may be able to start my 2011 Bruce calendar early if this keeps up

KA23

Oh my - that is hilarious & adorable at the same time! Thanks for sharing Burn_Baby_Burn

Looks like no one has added this yet, so since I think I was first to post it in the ComicCon thread, I"ll give myself the hat tip. ;-)

This question and answer made me laugh:

Sam has a lot of luck with the ladies, what do you consider to be his most charming quality?

Bruce Campbell: Charm. Most men don't have charm. It's a lost art, Charm. Charming a woman. Thank God writers write the lines for you. Otherwise, Christ, I'd have to think of it. What a nightmare.

Hi! I just found the Transcript for the S3 finale press conference Q&A with Bruce & Sharon at Spoiler TV

Kusa - ok, I fixed the link and put in a shorter one - I think it got messed up when the forum shortened the link.

Here is the link to the podcast again: http://www.scifitalk.com/notes/August_5%2C_2009

I wanted to thank everyone for all the great Bruce infos. Love those pics of him! Amazing.

The press thread is going to be worked on by Krocla (she's undertaking the editing and it's a big job so just wanted to give her a big pat on the back). Thank you again, krocla! And thank you for all the great info provided in this press thread. Thanks also to Karendipitee, who shortened one of those crazy long urls, lol.

Keep the great info coming, everyone!

Here's a cute picture/short story of Bruce with a local actress who had a bit part in an upcoming episode.

Cute picture and story

Just want to give krocla a great big pat on the back working on the press thread! Thank you, that is a lot of work!


May I add one to the list? I don't see this in your "holding" post, and it's not actually posted in this thread anywhere - it was originally posted in the cast appearances thread (and maybe this should be in the BN press thread also? I will post over there just in case):

Thanks, Karendipitee!! You always find the coolest stuff!

Patti

That one was complete dumb luck. Checking the home page for the local paper to see exactly how hot it was, and whose face jumped out at me?

LOL You are on a roll of BN "encounters" - first JD and now BC, sort of. ;-) Wonder where you'll run into Sharon?

Patti

I read the cute Bruce and local actress story and, then, wandered down into the comments section. Boy, was I sorry. There was just post after post of people snarking at one another and bringing in their own agendas. It made me run back to my nice, calm, full-of-considerate-and-interesting-people, BN forum home.

*nodding vigorously* I read and thought the same thing - and came running back here too! LOL Thank you folks, for being reasonable adults!

Patti
