Zach: "I have such a propinquity for this accent..." Chris: *mumbling* "Je*us f**kin Chr*st" LOL I love these two!! I'be been waiting since Star Trek 1 to see these two in interviews together! lol
He's shaking his head because they gave each other a list of words - that you wouldn't usually use and Zach used like all of them and that's why at the end they say Zach you won.
Zach Quinto said in an interview on TV that it was a game. JJ(or someone from the set) would give them a list with 100 new words everyday to learn or use during the day... These two would try to get through them by using them in these interviews, and would keep score on who was able to use more words from the list in an interview.
Zach was on a talk show, said they had this 25 word game and they we're to try to get has many of these words in a interview as possible! Something to do after anwersing the same questions, over and over! So funny!
Every moment of this was GOLDEN. I especially loved the vocabulary smackdown going into talking about Benedict ... and Zach wraps up with "Ben's a great guy." Got a little whiplash when he went from sesquipedalian to champ of words with just one sound.
"It was something that I knew about Zach from the moment I met him," he (CP) recalls. "It was just who Zach was and that's that. I'm sensitive, and I don't ever want to make anyone feel uncomfortable. Knowing that for Zach it was more about a career thing and that he was not comfortable at the time coming out-it was fine. It was something that we kind of tiptoed around, and I just took it as a given, because that's what he wanted."
Jj Abrams made them use a list of vocabulary words to use in every interview. They're actually competing against each other on how many they can use. Lmao
Ah it seems like Zachary and Chris are friends in real life! At least I hope so, that would make me happy. I love it when actors are friends off screen. And Into Darkness was amazing!
Zach just bested him in their vocabulary war. :-) Interesting side note: Chris has a B.A. in English from UC Berkley. I'm starting to wonder if Zach has one too.
back in middle school we got to pick our own vocab words. we'd find a word in our everyday life that we didn't know and bring it to class each week. this video would have lasted me the entire year.
I love how Zach keeps introducing new vocab words, and it's cute, but someone needs to tell him that he can sound smart without using crazy vocabulary. You don't have to try hard, dude. You have already won us over!!
Yeah they said they were doing so many interviews that it was a way for them to keep it interesting, so they tried to see who could use the whole list of words in one interview...lol...thought it was pretty cool.
I will always be a mad fan of Zachary Quinto and if I ever see him I'm mobbing him yelling "Sylar you're reformed!" ~like if you get the Heros reference~
Zachary paints an eloquent picture with his ideolect... as Chris sits there and practices his Australian accent. I hope these two make many more movies together.
