All this stuff online just makes the criticism more accessible.

I just want to know who “fryingpan673” is.

What made you decide to make this film?

At first it was a personal thing: I was getting heckled, and that was funny.

Then other comedians were getting heckled, and that was funny.

But then I started reading the reviews.

Steve Martin once told me not to talk to reporters a lot because they can jumble your words; they can take what you say and put it somewhere else.

And I never really understood that until this last year or so.

George Lukas, Mike Ditka, Carrot Top, Bill Maher, and Rob Zombie all appear in your film as the wrongfully heckled.

Do you think that celebrities should have the right to defend themselves?

You should be able to defend yourself whoever you are, famous or not.

Because everybody’s getting heckled now — someone could blog about the guy who works at Home Depot.

Is this film a rebuttal to critics?

It’s really about a phenomenon that's getting bigger and bigger, with Michael Richards and Mel Gibson recently [attacked by] the media, and Simon Cowell with the whole raised eyebrow thing.

It’s bananas.

Can this phenomenon be positive?

Well, it is positive … for the movie.

Thanks and love to all!
