Christopher Mintz-Plasse on screaming 'like a girl' for 'ParaNorman'
'Superbad' star discusses playing a 'bully' in ghoulish new stop-motion flick
"Tell Drew I say...give him a little" - makes smooching noises - "a little kiss on the cheek for me please," said "ParaNorman" voice star and obvious Drew McWeeny fan Christopher Mintz-Plasse, predictably charming as Gregory Ellwood sat down to chat with him about the new stop-motion film.
From the studio behind the similarly macabre animated movie "Coraline," "ParaNorman" centers on a young "ghoul-whisperer" (Kodi Smit-McPhee as the title character) who must utilize his power to speak with the dead in order to prevent his small town from being destroyed by evil forces. For his part, Mintz-Plasse plays Alvin, a school bully who makes life miserable for Norman - and who the actor clearly wasn't keen on making any apologies for.

August 17, 2012 at 5:49PM EST Reply to CommentJust saw ParaNorman, and the theater I saw it at had problems with the 3D projector at the beginning. Fortunately, the movie was very good and entertaining. Any person who was bullied could easily identify with Norman.
