Except that none of that is actually present in the interview if you watch it (which unfortunately avclub did not bother with).

maybe she wouldn’t be as embarrassed if she’d done better on Know Your Cuts Of Meat

Yeah, just come back with, "Nice to be here, er-David."

What a load of bullshit

The apology might be a little too much, but I think he sounds perfectly sincere. I’ve definitely over apologized for a thing if I carelessly did something that I then found out hurt someone. Especially getting a name wrong, which I’ve actually done far too often for my liking. Misnaming someone is almost entirely…

I thought this was going to be about Letterman being a dick, but I stead 8ts just a celebrity"s bruised ego. 

Because we finished Kurt Cobain’s.

Because he didn’t write “ALAN’S PERSONAL DIARY KEEP OUT!” on the front. 

Because he didn’t have the kind with a lock on it!

Because he didn’t have the decency to leave an audiobook version?

Her delivery throughout the HP films could best be described as always breathless and over-annunciated. Maybe that’s what Albanians sound like?

Radcliffe has turned what could have essentially been a teen idol situation into a pretty eclectic and interesting career. And him reading the real Deadspin’s Worst Tweets for a few years will always be amazing to me.

I honestly don’t even think he’s too far off the mark on that one. Williams’s music had gotten kind of generic by the time he did the HP scores.  They weren’t close to the same level as the Star Wars score, for example.

No, but it sounds like a sort of droll remark that’s meant more for his own amusement than as an actual put down. He’s talking about kids who are I think 12 or 13 during production, so it’s no wonder he thinks they’re shitty actors. But he was wrong about Radcliffe who is currently quite close to being a great actor…

Late career John Williams is less about a full great score and more about getting that couple second hook they can reuse forever. He is not a terrible composer by any stretch and the HP score is pretty good but its no Superman theme

I said above but these are diary entries that he wrote daily.  So while these may have been opinions, at the time, they were not always his opinion and its clear that after doing 8 movies with these kids he was proud to see them grow into their careers.  At least with Radcliff and Watson, he never mentions Grint at…

I think the leads in the Harry Potter series have acknowledged publicly that their acting in the early films is pretty bad. I don’t think that’s a knock against them, per se. If you look back at the stuff you were doing at 12, you likely were not doing that stuff at an adult level of quality, and don’t feel bad about…

“Always” is Snape’s line in the last book and movie that communicates that he loved Harry’s mother and always will. It’s super famous in Harry Potter fandom. 

Severus Snape was always (no Harry Potter pun intended) 

There is such political naivety in the US that it only takes one image of five Palestinians dancing in the street to obliterate the bigger picture.
