Mike Patton Interview from set of "Firecracker"; See raw footage, too   http://www.theage.com.au/handheld/articles/2003/12/04/1070351705958.html And how does he see acting figuring in his future? "I don't see it at all!" he cackles. "If something comes my way, fine, but I don't see myself out on a street corner with my pant leg rolled up going, 'Will act for cock!'" ---------------------------------------------- Check out some raw footage from Firecracker here: http://www.dikenga.com/films/firecracker/trailer/index.htm The General has to say, as much as he loves Mike Patton, he has serious reservations about this film. It's too early to say, I know. But it's not like there's a legitimate filmmaking name attached to this project. I know I shouldn't be surprised: Patton wouldn't make his film debut in something high-profile and Hollywood. But still.   9:24:08 PM    comment []
