When you throw punches at actors, you stop, you pull it, and it looks like you pulled it. When you throw punches at cartoon characters, they are not there, so you can swing through. It looks like you really decked them.
I've been grateful enough, smart enough to take the work with Ian McKellen in Gods And Monsters.
