Peter Sagal: I want you to know, in case you were bothered by people coming up to you and just immediately bringing up, I had not seen the movie until this week. So if I ran into you, I'd be like,"Oh, my God. Oh, my God. It's you from!" [...] I must have been busy the night it was out. And by the time I was like,"Oh, I should see that movie," it had become so popular and suffused popular culture that I felt I had seen it.
Ralph Macchio: It's like when you see a trailer to a movie and it's such a good trailer, and then you hear from someone about [the movie]. Then you're like, I've seen the trailer that has the best jokes. This guy just said,"This guy wins at the end." Eh, I don't really have to see it. Yeah, exactly. And then when I saw the movie, I was so surprised, it's more than 30 seconds long! Actually my biggest surprise in the movie was Pat Morita, the wonderful actor who plays Mr. Miyagi was, when you made the movie, six years younger than I am now, which is a little terrifying.So let's go back to 1984. You were, and for those of you who weren't there, even I knew this, you were huge.
