Verrrry nice. LOVE the accent. Very interesting to know that he's intentionally been humanizing Ba'al. I think a lot of people have picked up on it and I think it's why so many people like him.

Very nice interview David. Glad Cliff commented on the roll-eyes from Reckoning, though, just to see if it WAS intentional.

Great job David... what a fantastic interview...
Cliff sounds like such a down-to-earth guy and yet he carries Ba'al with such dignity and charisma.

So he likes the outfits too, eh? Some of the posters on thunk thread were oohing and ahing over his boots as well.

You know what I really like about your interviews... you actually let the actor talk as much as they want.

Default Re: INTERVIEW: Cliff Simon (Baal)

Marvelous GW interview! It was fascinating to learn how determined Cliff was to make his goa'uld portrayal different from the rest. And that he thinks Ba'al is "a little bit more human than the other System Lords" -- which is exactly what Ba'al fans find so appealing about his character.

Favorite bit: "I really become Ba'al. You just feel like a god, actually." I was so glad to hear that he enjoys wearing those incredible costumes as much as we enjoy seeing him in them!

And -- that accent! Can't wait to see if they make use of Ba'al in Season 9.

I'm listening to it right now.

... That is if the vacuum cleaner doesn't keep on going on...

I haven't actually listened to an interview before. I'd just read them.

But you people are talking about his accent so I just had to...

Yummy... Cliff Simon's accent...

I'm at work and had to sneak and read the transcript - quite an interesting gentleman. Very good interview David!

Hmmm. Might have to pay more attention to the Ba'al thunk thread.
