You read a script and you’re like, Oh, this is fantastic.
I really hope it its good, and it stays this way.
But you know, the thing with films is that it constantly changes.
I think it ended up being itwasa little different than the script, I guess.
SMITH: Me too.
LILLIS: That’s good.
SMITH: That is good.
What are you most excited for audiences to see in the film?
LILLIS: Good job, good answer.
You want to add anything?
LILLIS: Oh, me.
You said it pretty well.
I believe the dragon’s name is Chonky, I could be wrong about this.
SMITH: [Laughs] No, that’s not his name!
That’s not even kind of his name.
LILLIS: Is it not?
His name is Themberchaud.
Themberchaud, I think.
To be clear, I think it was either John or Jonathan that tweeted Chonky with the poster.
You know what I mean?
SMITH: Ooh, hilarious!
Yes, so that’s how I could get confused.
LILLIS: So thats it’s a nickname.
SMITH: Its like a pet name for Themberchaud.
Just real quick, what was your reaction when you finally saw the finished effects of that dragon?
Because it looks fantastic.
SMITH: It’s incredible.
It blinked, it sweat.
SMITH: And there’s a guyinit puppeteering it.
LILLIS: I love physical, practical effects, and I also just kind of like aLabyrinthtype of thing.
This is more of puppet stuff, but I loveDark Crystal, so seeing that kind of stuff.
