Simon Pegg's output is enough to make him a favourite around these parts but aside from his films there is mounting evidence that he belongs to a rather exclusive club among successful actors/movie people. We like to call it the Not-A-Complete-Wanker Club.
Click the headline above to link to an interview in which he said the following:
"I think the reason actors become idiots is because you’re treated so well. You’re driven everywhere, and you’re put up in really nice places. The actors that turn into idiots are the ones that start believing it’s because they deserve it, not because they’re just not trusted, which is the truth. The truth is actors are flaky, unreliable and mostly unstable people, and they need to be mollycoddled at all times."
Also check out this where he laid waste to the the planned American adaptation of Spaced, which didn't even have the courtesy to involve Pegg or any of the original team (not even as executive producers like the U.S. Office). It seems the producers must be borderline retarded. You don't mess with a show like Spaced without keeping the fanboys on side. Oh wait, what's that? McG is one of the producers? It figures.
