Because the man has earned his own damn thread.
I'll start...

QuoteYou have a lot of lines in this one that get tons of laughs I doubt were on the page. It's all in the rhythm, the delivery. How do you pitch something like that? How do you make something out of nothing?
I have developed a kind of different style over the years. I hate trying to re-create a tone or a pitch. Saying, "I want to make it sound like I made it sound the last time"? That's insane, because the last time doesn't exist. It's only this time. And everything is going to be different this time. There's only now. And I don't think a director, as often as not, knows what is going to play funny anyway. As often as not, the right one is the one that they're surprised by, so I don't think that they have the right tone in their head. And I think that good actors always—or if you're being good, anyway—you're making it better than the script. That's your fucking job. It's like, Okay, the script says this? Well, watch this. Let's just roar a little bit. Let's see how high we can go.
But you asked how you get the comic pitch. Well, obviously a lot of it is rhythm. And as often as not, it's the surprising rhythm. In life and in movies, you can usually guess what someone is going to say—you can actually hear it—before they say it. But if you undercut that just a little, it can make you fall off your chair. It's small and simple like that. You're always trying to get your distractions out of the way and be as calm as you can be [breathes in and out slowly], and emotion will just drive the machine. It will go through the machine without being interrupted, and it comes out in a rhythm that's naturally funny. And that funny rhythm is either humorous or touching. It can be either one. But it's always a surprise. I really don't know what's going to come out of my mouth.
QuoteYou know, my younger brother will absolutely murder me if I don't ask you this question....
All right. I should worry.
Is the third Ghostbusters movie happening? What's the story with that?
It's all a bunch of crock. It's a crock. There was a story—and I gotta be careful here, I don't want to hurt someone's feelings. When I hurt someone's feelings, I really want to hurt them. [laughs] Harold Ramis said, Oh, I've got these guys, they write on The Office, and they're really funny. They're going to write the next Ghostbusters. And they had just written this movie that he had directed.
Year One.
Year One. Well, I never went to see Year One, but people who did, including other Ghostbusters, said it was one of the worst things they had ever seen in their lives. So that dream just vaporized. That was gone. But it's the studio that really wants this thing. It's a franchise. It's a franchise, and they made a whole lot of money on Ghostbusters.
QuoteJust out of curiosity, since you crossed paths way back in the day: Have you seen Community? What do you think of what Chevy Chase is doing?
I'm hoping it's funny. It looks kind of funny. Chevy in life can really be funny. I don't see him that often anymore, but in life he's a hell of a lot more fun than I am—he's always going; he really, really, really wants to make people laugh. But I haven't watched it. What about the other show that has the girl from Saturday Night Live?
Parks and Recreation? That is the best comedy on TV right now, to my eyes.
When are these things on, anyway?
Thursday nights.
Both of 'em?
Yeah. Eight and eight thirty.
That's good. I want those things to work, but I'm out of touch. I have no idea. I never saw the original Office. I never saw this Office. I never even saw Clerks. Like I never saw, what's-his-name, Larry David's show.
Curb Your Enthusiasm?
No! The other one. With the other guy.
Seinfeld?
Seinfeld! I never saw Seinfeld.
Come on.
Really! I never saw Seinfeld until the final episode, and that's the only one I saw. And it was terrible. I'm watching, thinking, "This isn't funny at all. It's terrible!"
So what the hell do you watch, then? Sports?
I watch sports, I watch movies, Current TV on the satellite—I kind of like that. Honestly, I'm just easily bored. C-SPAN can be really great. Like the night Obama won the election, C-SPAN was the greatest. There were no announcers, just Chicago. It was just that crowd in Grant Park, and it was just fuckin' jazz. You know, it was just wow. And that's my town, you know? It was just: "Oh, my God, it's gonna happen! [getting genuinely excited] It's gonna happen!" You just saw the pictures of it, like, oh, there's someone from the Northwest Side, there's someone from the South Side, someone from the suburbs. It was the most truly American thing you've ever seen. [pause] Oh God, I get jazzed just thinkin' about it. I don't know anyone that wasn't crying. It was just: Thank God this long national nightmare is over.
I read an article about 10 years ago with Murray where it described an earlier interview he had done with with some kid, still green, been out of journalism school for a short period of time. Anyway, the kid asked Murray where he grew up and he said, "Wilmette, IL, a small, mining town north of Chicago." The reporter took Murray at his word and published it.
Still my favorite Bill Murray antecdote. I heard he's becoming a douche in his old age, but the man can do no wrong in my eyes.

Story on Yahoo yesterday (http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/movie-talk-bill-murrays-garfield-good.html) about Bill Murray agreeing to do Garfield because he thought it was Joel Coen, of Coen Brothers fame.
Quote
"I looked at the ['Garfield'] script, and it said, 'So-and-so and Joel Coen.' And I thought...well, I love those Coens! They're funny," Murray says in the GQ article. "So I sorta read a few pages of it and thought, Yeah, I'd like to do that."
But as any film buff can probably tell you, the writer in question wasn't actually Joel Coen, the Coen Brother-writer of "The Big Lebowski" and "Fargo." The "Garfield" writer was Joel Cohen (with an "h"), a writer of not-very-Coen-esque movies "Cheaper by the Dozen," "Toy Story," and "Money Talks." Regardless, Bill Murray told GQ he was shocked when he discovered his error.
"So I sat down and watched the whole thing, and I kept saying, 'Who the hell cut this thing? Who did this? What ... was Coen thinking?' And then they explained it to me: It wasn't written by that Joel Coen."
Still, he made lemonade out of it...referring to Jennifer Love-Hewitt.
Quote
"At least they had what's-her-name. The mind reader, pretty girl, really curvy girl, body's one in a million? What's her name? Help me. You know who I mean..." Murray said before being reminded of her name. "At least they had her in good-looking clothes. Best thing about the movie."

Quote(http://i.imgur.com/hWo9g.jpg)
Quote"That picture is of him laughing in my face"—Matt Katrosar
My friend Matt Katrosar flew to Chicago last weekend to hang out with some of his Windy City pals and attend the Bears/Packers NFL playoff game. He was wearing a Green Bay jersey (in support of old-school Packers legend Ray Nitschke) amid a sea of Chicago blue. During the 2nd quarter, Matt celebrated a considerably good play on the part of Green Bay with the usual hootin' and hollerin' reserved for such moments. That's when he was blatantly shoved from behind. Turning to catch a glimpse of his assailant, he discovered his pusher was none other than Bill Murray, a huge Chicago Bears fan, who was unapologetically enjoying the moment.
Matt's friend managed to capture a photo of Murray in mid-celebration, laughing at the rival fans. Naturally, Matt wanted a picture with the legendary actor. Murray's response to his request? "Nitschke is a pussy." So much for "No one will ever believe you."
The guy next to Bill sitting down looks a lot like Jeffrey Lebowski.
Strong men also cry.
If Oleg wasn't so addled, he'd be able to tell you that Bill Murray sat two rows in front of him, way up in the plebe-y 400 Section, during the Bears defeat of Seattke in the 2006 Divisional Playoff Game. Anyway, in case I was inclined to not believe him, this is visual proof that Murray sits with the unwashed masses. Awesome.

Death by anal electrocution.
Lucky for Huey, he's too big for anal electrocution.

Okay, fine. In that case, I demand Tonk be stripped of his 2011 Dead Pool Championship, as his clinching pick was not reported until 75 days after it happened. (http://www.desipio.com/messageboard/index.php?topic=7994.msg249100#msg249100)

QuoteMurray, 64, has not made it easy to get him to be in your movie. Unlike any other actor of his stature, he has no agent, no manager, no publicist. If you want to cast him, you get a friend of his to persuade him. Or you call his secret 1-800 number and leave your pitch after the tone. If he checks his voicemail, maybe he'll call you back. After he agrees to be in your movie, you may not hear from him again until the first day of shooting, when he'll show up in the makeup trailer, cracking jokes and giving back rubs.
I actually liked this even better:
QuotePeter Chatzky, a financial-software developer from Briarcliff Manor, New York, remembers being on vacation at a hotel in Naples, Florida, when his grade-school kids spotted Murray having a drink poolside and asked him for autographs. Murray gruffly offered to inscribe their forearms but ended up writing on a couple of napkins instead. Jake, a skinny kid, got "Maybe lose a little weight, bud," signed "Jim Belushi."

QuoteBut he also found time for almost everyone who approached him Wednesday, especially if you were a little kid or a pretty girl.
If you were a St. Louis Cardinals fan? Well, maybe not.
Murray, wearing a floppy hat and a blue and gold paisley shirt that was perpetually untucked, began bantering with the masses before he took his first swing.
He asked if any fans saw his beloved Cubs sweep St. Louis in a double-header Tuesday. One woman behind the ropes said she was a Cardinals fan.
"Satan's messengers on Earth," was the way Murray described the Cardinals.
"And then it turns out your team is cheaters, too,'' he added.
QuoteA few steps away, a boy with a Cardinals hat asked for an autograph. Murray signed, then noticed the red cap. "Are you a Cardinals fan? Get out of here. Rotten kid."

I don't geek out in the presence of celebrity but sitting in box seats with Bill while the Cubs mercilessly choked the last dying breath out of the Cardinals' dynasty, it would be hard not to.

So, honest question that was raised on Twitter today -- do people just choose to ignore Murray cheating on/beating his ex-wife? Did everyone forget about it? Does his general wackiness somehow outweigh it? It does seem like he gets a pass relative to other famous people who are reportedly similarly miserable to be around.

QuoteBut he also found time for almost everyone who approached him Wednesday, especially if you were a little kid or a pretty girl.
If you were a St. Louis Cardinals fan? Well, maybe not.
Murray, wearing a floppy hat and a blue and gold paisley shirt that was perpetually untucked, began bantering with the masses before he took his first swing.
He asked if any fans saw his beloved Cubs sweep St. Louis in a double-header Tuesday. One woman behind the ropes said she was a Cardinals fan.
"Satan's messengers on Earth," was the way Murray described the Cardinals.
"And then it turns out your team is cheaters, too,'' he added.
QuoteA few steps away, a boy with a Cardinals hat asked for an autograph. Murray signed, then noticed the red cap. "Are you a Cardinals fan? Get out of here. Rotten kid."
How great would watching a Cubs game with Bill Murray be? I don't geek out in the presence of celebrity but sitting in box seats with Bill while the Cubs mercilessly choked the last dying breath out of the Cardinals' dynasty, it would be hard not to. Slak and Neyer's Sworn Enemy Eli are our Twitter bigfoots (bigfeet?), so I'm begging you to make a Desipio/Bill Murray outing happen.
I'm hurt that you didn't mention me. I'm no Slak, but I'm a pretty big wheel at the Twitter Cracker Factory.
Talk to me when you've run a shithead Cardinals fan off Twitter in fewer than 8 hours.

So, honest question that was raised on Twitter today -- do people just choose to ignore Murray cheating on/beating his ex-wife? Did everyone forget about it? Does his general wackiness somehow outweigh it? It does seem like he gets a pass relative to other famous people who are reportedly similarly miserable to be around.
I had honestly never heard of this, and now I'm sad.
Same here. Thanks for ruining my Friday, Eli.

Who is on this "Mount Rushmore?" Andy, the "Father of Desipio," wooden teeth and all? Kelly Dwyer, the Jeffersonian-type who broke with the founders on some weird shit, but was brilliant and has the right idea and all, and one day will be back? BC, who speaks softly but always brings something big? And Chuck, who has freed us from the slavery of being the wrongest one here?
That's all fine with me as long as there's a statue of Mike D 50 feet behind the mountain screaming at it to sit down.
And a statue of you that probably is somewhere nearby, but everyone is a little skeptical about its existence.
Mine's just a statue of me angrily yelling at a statue of David Ross.
Oh wait, that's actually David Ross.
I laffed.

Bump for saying what we all feel. (http://qctimes.com/news/local/murray-doesn-t-disappoint-in-his-first-jdc/article_9c085f45-63e6-52de-a243-83ae0ce18755.html)
QuoteBut he also found time for almost everyone who approached him Wednesday, especially if you were a little kid or a pretty girl.
If you were a St. Louis Cardinals fan? Well, maybe not.
Murray, wearing a floppy hat and a blue and gold paisley shirt that was perpetually untucked, began bantering with the masses before he took his first swing.
He asked if any fans saw his beloved Cubs sweep St. Louis in a double-header Tuesday. One woman behind the ropes said she was a Cardinals fan.
"Satan's messengers on Earth," was the way Murray described the Cardinals.
"And then it turns out your team is cheaters, too,'' he added.
QuoteA few steps away, a boy with a Cardinals hat asked for an autograph. Murray signed, then noticed the red cap. "Are you a Cardinals fan? Get out of here. Rotten kid."
How great would watching a Cubs game with Bill Murray be? I don't geek out in the presence of celebrity but sitting in box seats with Bill while the Cubs mercilessly choked the last dying breath out of the Cardinals' dynasty, it would be hard not to. Slak and Neyer's Sworn Enemy Eli are our Twitter bigfoots (bigfeet?), so I'm begging you to make a Desipio/Bill Murray outing happen.
I'm hurt that you didn't mention me. I'm no Slak, but I'm a pretty big wheel at the Twitter Cracker Factory.

You're taking my picture off of Mt. Lushmore?
You're the victim of an old fashioned Huebitin'. By gum, it's been awhile!
