B.L. I was told that everything in Old School was actually scripted. But, come on, there had to be a lot of improvisation going on.
V.V. Oh, you mean like stuff going on in the background?
W.F. That's improvisation.
L.W. Yeah, that's improvisation.

B.L. So what was the funniest thing that just happened that was unscripted?
L.W. I liked the earmuffs with Vince and the little kid. That was really funny stuff. It was funny just being there and seeing them do that.

B.L. Will, everyone in this film has told me how uncomfortable they felt about how comfortable you felt running around naked.
L.W. That seems to be a weird and wild rumor going around. Will kept asking me, "Aren't you embarrassed about this being naked stuff?"
W.F. Come on, it's a frat house movie... nudity is a must.
V.V. All nudity, all the time. That's my motto.

B.L. But Will, weren't you at all nervous about your big streaking scene?
W.F. It was a lot fun, and I'm sure it put a lot of smiles on some faces at the screening you were at.

B.L. So, no body double, it was all actually you!
W.F. One hundred percent USDA ground chuck! Yup, that was all me! You should try it sometime. Block off a street and save it for your next birthday.

B.L. That's okay. I'll leave that to you. Now Luke, I think your character is someone a lot of people can relate to. He's always getting the rough deal in life.
L.W. The hits just keep on coming for Mitch, my character. He's got this job where he's got to go to these seminars that couldn't be more boring for him. He finally decides he's going to propose to this woman and he gets out of a business meeting and gets home only to find out that she's having an affair and that totally throws him off.

B.L. If you could go back to college and head up a fraternity, would you?
L.W. If I had a fraternity, I wouldn't want to be in one that had all of the intense, crazy hazing. To me it would be all about the fraternity in the movie where you have a group of guys who like life. They are kind of eclectic. You've got all of these guys who dress the same and act the same. I would just like it to be like some social club that old men in Little Italy have. You just get together to have a coffee or have a drink and play bocce and talk about who you're going to whack.

B.L. Vince, your character is a guy who's married but has some adventure in him and wants to try and drag his buddies along for the ride.
V.V. He's trying to encourage his friend through a break up and I don't think that my character ever really intentionally meant to do anything. He's all talk. Ultimately, my character is happy with his wife and happy being a father.

B.L. Will, your character is in a bit of a bind. You know who you are and what you're all about before these guys meet you, but there's always that hope that you'll change.
W.F. Frank's a guy -- I don't know if he knows it -- but he's fighting against where he thinks he belongs. He's a bit of a lost soul who in a weird way finds a home with this thing they start. His main thing, too, is his friendship with Beany and Mitch.

B.L. I'm sure you've heard this already, but a lot of people are comparing this movie to Animal House, which is a huge compliment. That movie is a classic.
V.V. It's flattering because you're right; it's a great and memorable movie. I'm very proud of our movie and I think it's funny. But Animal House is so hard for us to hear because we grew up with it.
L.W. We hold that movie way up here [holds hand up to the sky] and we would totally aspire to have anything nearly that funny. That's the feeling we wanted to get making the movie. It's like good friends just trying to have a good time fighting the system a little bit.
W.F. One thing that's really special about Animal House is that you actually really believe that those characters exist and that was one of the main things we wanted to establish. We really believed that these guys are friends.

B.L. Luke, one last question for you. Both you and your brother Owen (Shanghai Knights) have movies opening this month. Is there any sibling rivalry when stuff like that happens?
L.W. It's not weird to be in box office competition. But it's really weird to have trailers out at the same time and it's weird to both have movies coming out. It's strange enough to be in the movies, but to have a movie coming out at the same time as my brother is really odd. I get more nervous about how his movie is going to do than I do about my own for some reason. We're best friends so we don't really get into whose movie is going to make more money.
