Back in the day, James Marsters' old official websites used to post a monthly Q&A session with James, & I'm reposting those Q&As every week for a bit of fun (& nostalgia)! (Skipped last week's due to my retweeting all of your fave James pics to help celebrate James' birthday; check them out here & here) Enjoy this week's Q&A from March 2010:

March 2010

What song did you start to play in the deleted scene for P.S. I Love You? Everyone loves that scene.
Oh, that was Too Fast, that I wrote. I had to use something that I wrote so they didn’t have to deal with any copyrights.

Should the individual or society be of primary importance?
Uh, well society exists to give succor to the individual. There’s no reason for society if it doesn’t serve the individual, so the individual does come first. I’m an American, though, so I’m gonna say that. If I was Chinese, I might tell you the opposite.

Are you a good swimmer?
I’m a very good swimmer. I was trained at the YMCA in Modesto to the level of “Shark”, which is just below lifeguard.

What do you think of Joss Whedon’s comment that “Buffy was in love with Spike the moment their hands clasped” in the finale?
Yeah, I believe that. Only then was he a true hero, only then did he truly sacrifice himself for other people and only then did he truly deserve her.

Food you hated as a child, but came to like as an adult?
Nothing. I still hate lima beans, I still hate liver, and I still hate brussel sprouts.

As an actor, you have died onstage and onscreen several times. Which were your most and least favorite deaths to perform and why?
My least favorite was on Lie to Me because I wanted more dialogue with Tim Roth and Jennifer Beals. My favorite was my first death on Smallville because I knew it was meaningless. Dying isn’t good.

Favorites:
Decade? My favorite decade? Right now!!
Amusement park ride? Rollercoaster- an old-fashioned wooden roller coaster.
James Bond? I would have said Sean Connery until Craig. But now it’s Daniel Craig. Yeah. He’s the dirtiest, he’s a real killer. You really would not want to have dinner with that guy. I love it – he’s so nasty!

Back in the day, James Marsters' old official websites used to post a monthly Q&A session with James, & I'm reposting those Q&As every week for a bit of fun (& nostalgia)! Enjoy this week's Q&A from September 2008:

September 2008

Buffy and Spike’s "bring down the house" sex scene was recently voted TV Guide’s number one hot scene in television history. Your opinion on that?
It was pretty fun! My memory of it was that the stunt coordinator took 50 lbs of pointed metal to the face that night, so we all ended up in the hospital at the end of that night.

What bores you?
Local television news.

What is on your refrigerator door?
I’ll go check (he laughs)…there’s nothing on the refrigerator door here. My nanny doesn’t want us to blemish it.

After playing and performing a song multiple times, does it become routine? Or do you find yourself being drawn back to the situation that inspired the song and begin to feel the emotions all over again?
I feel it all over again. I have to be careful not to get teary eyed – it’s terrible for the voice.

Do you think John Hart is a good man or a bad man?
He’s a bad man trying to be good.

How would you describe the perfect first kiss?
Relaxed lips, long and mushy, and just a little bit of tongue.

Either/Or
Sir Ian McKellen or Sir Anthony Hopkins?
I refuse to choose!

Favorites:
Vegetable – edamame
Places in California – The poppy fields outside of Santa Maria, CA; Big Sur; Humboldt County where the redwoods are.

Back in the day, James Marsters' old official websites used to post a monthly Q&A session with James, & I'm reposting those Q&As every week for a bit of fun (& nostalgia)! Enjoy this week's Q&A from January 2008:

January 2008

What do you remember about your 18th birthday?
Nothing whatsoever, so it must have been really good. I had graduated from high school and was going to the college of my dreams. I had lots of friends and access to really quality beer. It must have been really good and no one got hurt because Id have remembered that.

How do you define success in general?
Happiness.

What do you do to warm up your voice before a concert?
Sing. It’s actually good if I blow my voice out a bit and sing really loud. This goes against what I’ve been taught about a nice warm-up, but it works. Other than that just a lot of sleep; that’s the real key.

In PS I Love You, did you suggest the "vampire slayer" bit in it, or did someone else add it just as an inside joke and what did you think of the movie overall?
I missed the vampire reference so it must not have been me. Loved the movie hated myself but loved the movie. I think it’s a great movie. I think my hair looked stupid.

What do you think Buffy and Spike did that last night together?
I think Buffy tried to sleep with Spike but Spike wouldn’t have her. He really didn’t trust her. He said they should just be friends. (laughs!)

What can you tell us about your role in the Dragonball movie?
I’m not really allowed to talk about any of the movie details, but I can say that James Wong is obviously a gifted and insightful director! When I got the role I had doubts. The more I live with it I realize that I am going to rock this harder than I have anything in my life. I’m hungry for it.

A painful lesson?
Always communicate no matter how hard it is to tell someone something’s wrong. It’s worse not to talk about it. I learn this every few years. The truth hurts for 3 days. Lack of truth hurts your whole life.

You have described yourself as tough when you are a producer. How much do you praise, and how much do you focus on being critical when needed?
Always praise, never criticize; but always ask them to do more, to do it faster and with more passion, and give them a confidence to risk making fools of themselves and then demand that they do.

Favorites:
Punk Band: Sex Pistols
Kurt Cobain Song: Hmmmm, whew…. "Rape Me" (his most honest song)
Bond and Bond girl: Connery and Craig. Moore didn’t deserve those women. All the Bond girls are my favorite. I think they must spray something on them to make them more attractive.

Either/Or Star or Angel on Christmas Tree: Star.
Pool or Ocean: Oh? I’m ashamed to say… pool.
