00:00 You had a busy weekend promoting the movie at the Junket at Disneyland.
00:03 Did you get to ride any rides while you were there?
00:05 I rode the Incredicoaster, which was terrifying.
00:08 But I rode the Incredicoaster and then I...
00:12 We did a lot of press, but anytime I can be at that place,
00:16 you know, it's really nostalgic.
00:18 You know, it's... you just think about the history of that place. It's pretty crazy.
00:22 Which emotion would you say runs the control board inside your brain?
00:26 Ooh, I think that's what I... one of the things I like about this movie is it's a mixed bag.
00:31 I think many times we can think it's very like,
00:34 "You either feel this or you feel this, you feel this."
00:36 You know, my daughter just graduated, so I've also got nostalgia about that.
00:39 I'm excited, I'm joyful about her future,
00:42 but I'm also like anxious, you know, living in the what-if, like what's gonna happen.
00:46 So it's like, it's always a little bit mixed.
00:49 What's been the best reaction you've gotten to this movie so far now that people are starting to see it?
00:55 Yeah, it's more just, "Oh, what did some... oh, I heard this story of..."
01:00 I think it was somebody was talking to some students who had seen the movie,
01:04 and somebody... he was kind of like, you know, quiet.
01:06 They go, "You got it right," to the creators.
01:10 And it's like, yeah, just... it's a very... it's a very complex issue,
01:15 and they make it very accessible.
01:16 Like, let's give compassion to our emotions a little bit,
01:19 rather than trying to push them away, you know?
01:21 Definitely. And I have to ask,
01:23 how has your life changed since you were in a Super Bowl commercial with Beyoncé?
01:28 Man, I'm more just reeling from it.
01:30 I'm like, "Whoa, that happened?"
01:33 I just... that day was really cool.
01:35 And she was so sweet and kind, and...
01:38 I don't know, I was just the goofy guy that was wearing the same outfit, eating all the food.
01:43 It sounds like she proved to you why she's the queen.
01:45 She really is. I mean, she's so talented, but...
01:47 the big component is she's very humble and normal.
01:50 You know, it's like... that's a real gift.
01:53 It is, to a lot of people.
