Interview:We had a chance to talk to Bruce Campbell of USA's
Burn Notice at the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con!
Has it been interesting for you to see how big a convention like this has progressively larger?
Bruce Campbell: It's great. I can't feel bad for it the only thing is it's getting a little bit more on the corporate side, like successful things do. Corporations go, 'OH, there's 125,000 people gonna be in one spot for four days, are you kidding me? Get down there Jamie Foxx, get down there Charlize Theron.' Whereas five years ago they would never be here. So I mean it's exploded. I think it's awesome. It's better than seeing everyone go out of business, I mean there's lots of people that are hurting, but not the entertainment field, thank God.
Was it different for you to be here for Burn Notice?
Bruce Campbell: Yeah, oh sure. There's a minimum of Ash questions, cause they go, 'Oh crap he's not even here for his genre of shows, or a movie, or whatever.'
Surely they're still throwing those questions at you?
Bruce Campbell: Oh sure! No, you can't avoid that. Because there's a natural curiosity. You can't take that away from them. If they really want to know, they gotta know. They wouldn't know that I've answered it a hundred million times. They haven't read all the hundred million interviews.... Or have they?
What question have you answered that you're sick and tired of answering
Bruce Campbell: Well,
The Evil Dead ones come to mind, but again I still can't hold that against anybody, because they're interested. So, I just get tired of repeating it, only because it's asked so much. I just want to send out a banner everyday reminding people of what's happening or not happening. But it's ok. It's all good. I don't really mind it.
What will you play in the World of Warcraft?
Bruce Campbell: Don't know. I just found out today that he was making the movie. I don't even know.
