Bloody brilliant!

GoEasyPudding · 19/06/2017 15:33

Cor! Steve Carell, my crush! Swoon.

BluebellsareBlue · 19/06/2017 19:22

OMG! These two are my favourites!
I want to know what is the funniest film they have made (not the public opinions but their opinions). And if they have to keep retaking a scene, does it get less funny each time?

Amrapaali · 19/06/2017 19:39

Steve I love youuuuuuuu!!!! Grin honestly you is a god.. .

Here is my question: you have very distinctive features. Have you ever been sidelined sometimes because of say, your nose or ur height? If not, do you think a woman will be treated differently?

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 19/06/2017 19:46

I've no questions but I'm so excited! Michael Scott is my absolute favourite tv character ever!

Actually I do

Were the Dementors REALLY the worst think about prison? Wink

PickleSarnie · 19/06/2017 20:26

Omg. I lurrrrrves Steve Carrell. Proper lurves him.

LouiseBrooks · 19/06/2017 23:13

Just loved Steve Carell in Crazy Stupid Love, he was fabulous.

FancyPantsDelacroixTheFirst · 20/06/2017 06:06

I so want a lipstick taser. Has Lucy had any effect on Gru's impulse control or does she hide his freeze ray before dinner parties?

NotJanine · 20/06/2017 11:51

Another member of the Steve Carell Appreciation Society and I'm looking forward to Battle of the Sexes so my question to Steve is - how's your tennis?

TequilaSunshine · 20/06/2017 16:47

Brilliant! We love all the Despicable Me movies, and am looking forward to seeing the new one at the cinema!
I want a lipstick taser too Grin

Therealslimshady1 · 20/06/2017 19:52

My husband is jealous of Steve Carell, as he always makes me laugh.

Steve: was that hair removal scene in the 40 year old virgin real? And were those your own swear words?! Grin

Kristen: Are you doing another big kick-ass comedy like bridesmaids soon? Please?

SarahBeeney · 20/06/2017 20:04

Kristen- Was Bridesmades good fun to shoot and was it as funny to work on as it was to watch?I think it may be the funniest film I have ever seen.

Dumpyandabdabs · 20/06/2017 21:09

Cool guests Mumsnet!!

Love Steve and Kristen 😁

I want to ask Kristen if she was annoyed at all the negative press that the Ghostbusters reboot got before it was even released (I thought it was unfairly dismissed and really enjoyed the film).

And i'd like to ask Steve if he prefers acting in comedies or more serious roles? I love Little Miss Sunshine as it blended the two perfectly.

phoolani · 21/06/2017 11:48

I'd ask Kristen exactly how much better she thought the ghostbusters reboot was than the original?
Also, Is bridesmaids the funniest film ever, or just top three?

starray · 21/06/2017 13:23

Wow! Steve Carell! My favourite actor! He was great in Dan in Real Life. Seems like a really nice guy, and he loves his wife, seems like a great dad, so that makes him extra cool.

ChocolatePHD · 21/06/2017 13:37

I'd like to ask Steve if people still shout Michael Scott quotes at him in the street?!

starray · 21/06/2017 13:48

I'm on facebook mumsnet but no one there?

GoEasyPudding · 21/06/2017 13:49

May I ask you both Kristen and Steve - What Movie/s make you cry?

"Seeking a Friend for the End of the World" sets me off ugly crying.

GoEasyPudding · 21/06/2017 13:57

Tumbleweed at the FB page. Where are they?

starray · 21/06/2017 14:03

I'd like to ask Steve how he celebrated Father's Day and what's the best thing about being a dad.

And Kristen, I really enjoyed the Secret Life of Walter Mitty!

RachelMumsnet · 21/06/2017 14:04
