"Fifteen years from now, when people are talking about 3-D, they will talk about the business before 'Monsters vs. Aliens' and the business after 'Monsters vs. Aliens.' It's the line in the sand." - Greg Foster, IMAX chairman and president

I really thought I had posted feedback here. One of those planned-to-then-imagined-it-was-done kind of things. Anyways, I returned to this thread via your other post and I'm posting it now. Great interview, Luke! She seems like a very chill, easy to talk to person. That's how it comes off in the text, anyways. Your interview cleared up a few things about the movie and had me wanting to finally watch the Herbie line (which I still haven't ever done) more than ever. Oh, and the question about teh Lohan's boobs was brave, and got a good answer!

I'm embarrassed. I'll admit, I did not even notice the interview when it was first posted on the main site. I saw this thread and until I saw the date it was made, I thought it had been added today! Sorry Luke! 
Looks like her career is taking off nicely. Great interview, Luke! She really seemed excited to be able to talk about the film. I love it when you can tell that the director really appreciates the movie.
I'm glad to finally know the truth about the Dean Jones cameo rumor. I'm kind of disappointed after hearing the answer, though. It would've been cool to have the star of some of the previous movies make an appearance.
I agree with Aaron, you were brave for asking the question about "digitally-reduced Lindsay". If I had been the one asking the questions, I would've felt too awkward to ask it.
It was a very fun read and as always, I have a little more respect for the movie now that I know more about the making of it.
