Bill Murray's Best Reddit Responses

— -- It was Bill Murray at his best, improvising, philosophizing and, generally, leaving fans lost in translation.

The 65-year-old comic actor was back on Reddit for a second round, ahead of his latest film, "Rock the Kasbah." This time he talked about the best party he ever crashed, the role that got away and the best and worst things about being Bill Murray.

In true Bill Murray form, his responses didn't always make sense, though some people were blaming Reddit for poor translation of his answers.

Check out some of his best responses and make of them what you will.

What was the best party you've ever crashed?

Well, we crashed a famous party called the subway party to celebrate the premiere of Tommy, in the 70s. It was Gilda Radner, Belushi, Harold Ramis, Joe Flaherty, Brian Doyle Murray, and we were all plus 1, probably. It was biggest party ever in NYC at the time. You couldn't get into this party. It was an inner circle thing. It was at an enclosed subway stop, it was a roar. It was a scream. If you made an airport movie with everyone on the plane is a celebrity, it was like that times 10. We were doing a show in the restaurant cabaret, the guys catering were the same guys who gave us left over French fries, we went into the backdoor to the subway with everyone. Everyone saying hi, hello. And we felt like we didn't belong at all. It was so fantastic. I have compassion when people say dumb stuff to me. I said to Andy Warhol "I love the soup can" and he looked at me like, "You don't belong here." What a time that was.

What's the best thing about being Bill Murray? What's the worst thing about being Bill Murray?

The worst thing about it, they're one in the same: You wish you could walk down the street and look at things and watch things uninterrupted. The shock of being recognized brings you out of this place where you're just trying to take it in. It’s an obligation and you're reminded you have to show up. It's a coin with two sides. As much as I don't like the one side, the other side is what might save me.

If you were a superhero, what would be your power?

Invisibility!

In your family, who's the funny one?

Well, my brother Brian: You can see smoke coming out of his head. He will ruminate on something and all of the sudden, and just throws it out there and it splatters the room. It's like, wow. I don’t know how it works in his brain. You can see him thinking and then it comes. My brother Joel is funny, my brother John is funny. They're all pretty funny. My sister Peggy is funny. But Brian, he has a real gift.

What was the role that "got away"?

The only role I wanted I didn't get, the “Year of Living Dangerously,” by Peter Weir. I wasn't a big shot. Mel Gibson lived in Australia. I'd been to Indonesia and I thought I understood that movie. When I saw it, I was like, damn! That was the only one I wanted I didn't get. Peter Weir is ... something else.

What was Rodney Dangerfield like to work with on "Caddyshack"?

There are not many people alive who could party with Rodney. He would have left you all for dead. He really went hard, he was fun. He was funny. The thing that's notable about the movie, there's several great comedians in the movie. Crazy different styles. Ted Knight is different from Chevy, who is different from Rodney, who is different than my brother. Henry Wilcoxon, he was like the original Antony in Antony and Cleopatra. He came here, a savage hunk and then in our movie, he's playing a bishop! In my free time on the movie, I spent it with him. That's who I wanted to talk to, that's who had an irony and experience beyond us. He was super cool.

If you HAD to choose one reality TV show to be on, which would you choose and why?

“Flavor of Love.” The idea that he had some of the most, would I consider maybe not the most desirable women in the world, they were really nutty. I mean really crazy. I'd think “The Amazing Race.” It was like a show I watched in Paris, similar to that. One episode I saw, they had to fight their way to the top of a hotel in Singapore, and answer impossible questions. I used to watch it just to see people completely fall apart. They would try to answer, and it would kill them. But “The Amazing Race” looks like a lot of fun. You get to go to a bunch of places. It calls on all your skills. I tell people, if you want to get married, travel around the world first. Cause then you get to know people better. It’s a test of wills to travel. I think “The Amazing Race” would be fun.

What your secret to life is?

If I tell you it’s not a secret, right? Think of what you said. Then I'm not the person who can keep a secret. You almost tricked me, it’s not going to happen. Unless I have a couple of drinks.

What's the favorite movie you've ever done?

You're not supposed to have favorite children. The early ones were fun when people weren't as fussy. Maybe, “What About Bob,” was really fun. We were on a lake in Smith Mountain, Virginia. We took over a resort, Labor Day night was a brawl and in the morning everyone was gone. We waterskied on a full moon ... it’s a moonshine county there. The party would start at 5:45 p.m. and full tilt at 6:08. We crashed an MC Hammer concert, we're an hour from Roanoke. We had to find our way back to see the concert. I called CAA and said I want to see this show. I said I'm bringing people. We hired a bus, 55 people completely party all the way to the place; get there and bouncers are like, "Hey, Bill! Aw, man, how many withchu" and they put us on the side of the stage. Anyway, that movie was fun. I think “Broken Flowers,” that was a perfectly directed movie, and I really did retire at that moment. Retire sounds horrible. I thought what can I do any better. I think I’m doing pretty well, it so happened I started having a second life and working with Wes, Sofia and they kept coming. I thought I made my mark, made my bones. I thought there was something else I could do but nothing really appeared.
