Five Minutes: Theater junior votes yes on Baldwin, no on poo-ma

Dominic Dames: What do you believe makes someone a hero?

Matt Lusk: Superpowers and cooking skills; I want my superhero to save me and make me something nice.

Dames: Why that over other attributes?

Lusk: Morality is cool, but I might need them to freeze time or fly me somewhere. You can have a friend with a Mazda RX8 or you can have a friend that can control time.

Dames: Do you believe that we have heroes that exist today?

Lusk: Alec Baldwin. Basically everything I said before, these are all elements that Alec Baldwin has.

Dames: Are you a fan of his movies?

Lusk: I’m a fan of anything Alec Baldwin does, he’s amazing in 30Rock, and it’s the best show on television.

Dames: Why is it the best show?

Lusk: The writing is pure genius.

Dames: Anything else you can say about the show?

Lusk: Magnificent cast.

Dames: Do you have any more role models that you look up to or may try to emulate?

Lusk: I’m a huge Will Ferrell fan, but the movie Semi-Pro was incredibly disappointing.

Dames: What were you expecting that didn’t deliver?

Lusk: Laughs and good times.

Dames: What did you hate about it?

Lusk: It tried too hard to strike my heart and not my funny bone.

Dames: Do you think kids today have a lot of positive role models to choose from?

Lusk: That depends on the kid; it also depends on how good their parental units are.

Dames: Who do you see as being not so good of a role model?

Lusk: I’d say a man entirely made out of poop. If a man made entirely out of poop tried to sell me something, I would be very suspicious.

Dames: Why?

Lusk: Because where normal human body parts are he has poop. If a poop man were to hug me there would be residues of poop all over my Puma jacket. I don’t want poop on my Puma. It’s a Puma jacket not a poo-ma jacket.

Dames: Does having bad role models make parents’ jobs tougher?

Lusk: Yeah. (followed by a series of head nods.)
