Jon Lovitz: Get to Know Him

The AV Club’s Random Roles feature can be hit-or-miss, depending on how open the subject is to an examination of their cinematic C.V.

But they hit one out of the park with their Jon Lovitz feature.

Some comments:

• If you ever did a movie with Jon Lovitz, he considers you a close personal friend.
• He had a choice between SNL and filming “Mom & Dad Save the World”. Let that one sink in.
• Him and Dana Carvey were the original stars of “Bad Boys”.  If you’ve recovered from the last bullet point, let *that* one sink in.
• The interview comes to a screeching halt when NewsRadio is brought up. He really doesn’t like Andy Dick.
• Pretty sure that if Woody Allen asked him to blow him, he would.
• If it were up to him, Eddie Murphy would have won multiple Oscars.  Not for Dreamgirls or even Coming to America.  Nope, for The Nutty Professor franchise.

Enjoy.
