TED! Would you consider giving Mike Tolbert a shout out on the League this season? Preferably make a case to Taco why he should be a first round pick.

Frajer · 2014-08-28T19:15:11+00:00

did Peter Gallagher ever give you advice in real life ?

ScoobyGangRelic · 2014-08-28T19:29:12+00:00

Can you tell us about your experience on Gilmore Girls?

seanseanseanh · 2014-08-28T19:21:35+00:00

Hey Adam, do you actually believe in fate and destiny?

jumpymcfiggins · 2014-08-28T19:14:43+00:00

Is there anything I can get you, like an orange juice, or a coffee, or a Red Bull??

fooler04 · 2014-08-28T19:57:54+00:00

How's Leighton? ;)

icedancer23 · 2014-08-28T19:31:37+00:00

Did you get to keep any props from The OC? I've often wondered what became of Captain Oats...

Maccas75 · 2014-08-28T19:14:49+00:00

Hi Adam! Do you think there is any chance for an OC reunion in the future? And; is Big Japan still active? If so, what kind of drum kit do you play? (My Sister wants to know how it felt to be killed in Scream 4!) Have a great day - love your work!

JosephAlwaysStalin · 2014-08-28T19:43:21+00:00

My girlfriend loves you, how do I make that stop?

McPick · 2014-08-28T19:38:40+00:00

What was it like getting hit in the face with a telephone by Angelina Jolie? It really happened. Movies don’t lie. Don’t ruin this for me, Brody.

George_Hale · 2014-08-28T20:04:11+00:00

Hi Adam! You were definitely the best part of the O.C., i've always enjoyed when you were improvising. But anyway, i've been wanting to ask you a question since i was 13 or 14: how was it like to kiss Rachel Bilson? Is she a good kisser? Since i had a crush on her at the time, the 13 years old that's still in me is screaming and is dying to know.

ben5647 · 2014-08-28T19:16:10+00:00

I have 2 questions:

Do you still keep in contact with Ben McKenzie from The O.C.?
What advice do you have for fans that are going through bullying/depression?

Adam_Brody · 2014-08-28T20:04:20+00:00

Hey Adam,

So what the fuck happened to you, man?

SoltanPill · 2014-08-28T19:20:05+00:00

Chris Pratt said that when he was on The OC final season, all you young actors were so ready for it to be over and basically said that it pissed him off because you guys didn't know how lucky you had it when there were so many actors struggling for work. Do you think you and other actors were guilty of taking it all for granted and acted a bit bratty actor-ish?

lena_hamilton · 2014-08-28T19:14:27+00:00

Adam, fun question, what makes you laugh & wha's your biggest weakness?

dimplejuice · 2014-08-28T19:41:13+00:00

Adam-- big fan of your work. At what point do you tell your agent, "I was born in 1979, so stop pitching me high school/college age roles?" When are we going to see you play the hip cool dad on a tv show or movie?

Black_Suit_Matty · 2014-08-28T20:02:32+00:00

If I wanted you to answer a question in like three sentences instead of one or two, what should I ask?

cornponious · 2014-08-28T20:05:23+00:00

How many Rush albums do you own?

moneymike247 · 2014-08-28T19:15:45+00:00

Hey Adam, thanks for taking the time to do this. We actually met briefly when I was working the press day for Burning Love on Yahoo! You were super chill!

Being a 20 something year old from Orange County, I was a big OC fan. Do you still talk to Rachel, Ben, Mischa, or anyone else from the show?

josephine_amos · 2014-08-28T19:13:47+00:00

Hello Adam, what attracted you to The Cosmopolitans? How will you tease the coming season for us??

AussieBoyJon · 2014-08-28T19:16:38+00:00

Adam, if you could work with any actor, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

Beats9 · 2014-08-28T19:25:03+00:00

Favorite part of filming in Paris?

MegmegPar · 2014-08-28T19:40:11+00:00

Go to drink at the moment? You seem like someone who would enjoy a good craft beer!

Adam_Brody · 2014-08-28T20:12:47+00:00

When is Big Japan making another album?

Warlizard · 2014-08-28T19:59:49+00:00

Generic softball question about new film?
Obligatory gush and proclamation of fandom.
Witty comment designed to provoke a response.

Adam_Brody · 2014-08-28T19:14:18+00:00

What was it like working with Joaquin Phoenix?

JohnnyAcesDueces · 2014-08-28T19:23:00+00:00

Hey Adam.

Any response to Cam Gigandet's claim that during production the kids on the set of the OC were "Fucking miserable?"

hannahstorm5 · 2014-08-28T19:12:35+00:00

Hi Adam, huge fan here, what's your favorite role so far & what's the best acting advice anyone's ever given you? :)

Ali_Parker17 · 2014-08-28T19:29:21+00:00

Would you rather:

Have fingers as long as your legs or legs as long as your fingers?
Have a dragon or be a dragon?
Stand barefoot on an iceblock for 20 min or be tickled on your bare feet for 20 min?

Why? lol! Thanks for doing this!

Adam_Brody · 2014-08-28T19:55:55+00:00

Hey Adam, Thanks for doing this AMA.

My youngest son is named after you. All my kids are named after my wife and my favorite actors. My son Owen is named after Owen Wilson, my daughter Callie Reese is named after Reese Witherspoon, and my youngest, Dylan Brody, is named after you.

First question, How are you doing today?

Second, Do you have any awesome stories about working with Kevin Smith?

Lastly, Do you have any idea when The OC is going to be on Netflix?

Thanks again.

Bigassbird · 2014-08-28T20:02:58+00:00

Hi Adam

I had such a crush on you during the OC. My husband was very jealous of you and found it inappropriate (although you are only five years younger than me) - I think he was threatened as you have better hair.

Anyway - what are your thoughts on the Pitt marriage? Could you tell they liked each other during the making of Mr & Mrs Smith?

Keep up the good work.

fansong · 2014-08-28T21:07:48+00:00

Hey Adam. I started copying your dressing style back when I first saw you in The OC, and I keep doing that until this day, from paparazzi photos of you. But since you're answering questions now, I thought I should ask you first. Is it ok if I copy your dressing style? Thanks!

fooler04 · 2014-08-28T21:16:38+00:00

How much do you love Leighton?

purplegreendragon · 2014-08-28T19:13:32+00:00

Hi Adam, What is your favorite breakfast? Mine is two eggs sunny side up and two slices of bacon, with an espresso

pfelon · 2014-08-28T19:27:37+00:00

The O.C. was the butt of some jokes but overall it ran for a long time, dealt with some real vital issues at the time, and meant a lot to a lot of people (including myself). What would you pinpoint as your favorite aspect of the show, thematically, and particularly of your character?

dimplejuice · 2014-08-28T19:49:49+00:00

When are you going to pull a mcconaughey and start doing some deep, meaty roles? Maybe in a few years?

Frasierfan · 2014-08-28T19:17:15+00:00

Adam, i thought your were fantastic on New Girl, i was wondering how tall are you, what's your shoe size, and what are your most sensitive spots??

JohnnyAcesDueces · 2014-08-28T19:25:47+00:00

Would you rather fight a county sized orange, or 100 orange sized counties?

Adam_Brody · 2014-08-28T19:15:56+00:00

Adam, wait a second. What am I going to do without you? You're so wise, and all your sage wisdom. What am I going do without that?

queen_poser · 2014-08-28T19:15:19+00:00

What is your guilty pleasure?

golddiglett · 2014-08-28T19:17:52+00:00

I was a huge OC fan. Thank you for giving me something to look forward to on Thursday evenings! What tips would you give to the Seth Cohens of the world?

Dollarama · 2014-08-28T19:27:43+00:00

Hey Adam, thanks for the AMA! Just recently watched baggage claim and think like a man too and thought your parts were funny. I didn't even know you were in those movies until you came on screen. What new projects do you have lined up? Also, land of women was great!

Beats9 · 2014-08-28T19:33:22+00:00

How old is Penny Lane now?

lalalalala7453 · 2014-08-28T19:36:31+00:00

ADAM! Big fan here. I just watched The Cosmopolitans and thought it was beautiful - love the whimsy and look of the pilot. Hope it gets picked up!

My question - what was it like to work with Amazon on this vs other shows you have done and do you have any funny anecdotes from set?

KenGlauber · 2014-08-28T19:39:08+00:00

How did you link up with David Wain? Did you audition for The Ten or was the role given to you?

dimplejuice · 2014-08-28T19:46:40+00:00

Do you and Leighton split up the chores equally or does she carry more than her fair share? I.e. who does laundry, bro?

CrazyLilBlondie · 2014-08-28T20:34:22+00:00

Hi Adam, Peter Gallagher has nominated you for the Ice Bucket Challenge? Are you going to do it? I will if you will :D

violetgranger · 2014-08-28T19:16:04+00:00

actually made it to an AMA early! Hey Mr Brody!

I have three questions for you:

What was it like to work with Wes Craven on the set of Scream 4? Anything funny happen?

What is your favourite flavour of ice cream? Toppings of choice?

One of my favourite movies is actually Grind. Got me into Skateboarding for a while. I watch it every summer with my best friend. Were there any accidents on set and how was the experience of shooting that movie?

Extra note: my lovely grandmother, who used to watch the OC with me when i was a lot younger, still today refers to you as “Brody Cohen.” Which I think is both adorable and irritating. Sorry about that.

Thank you for doing this AMA,

Kind regards from an 18 year old, London, England!

alfio45 · 2014-08-28T19:14:54+00:00

Hi, Adam! Thanks for this AMA. I’m an huge fan of The OC, I re-watch the show every year.

My question :

Will you want to do a new show with Josh Schwartz again?

alfio45 · 2014-08-28T19:20:14+00:00

Do you have some great behind the scenes stories from The OC?

page_mathews · 2014-08-28T19:21:00+00:00

Hi Adam, what's the best fan interaction you've had, and what's the oddest? What's the weirdest question a fan's asked you? (Besides this one, that is!) :)

Sakura_7 · 2014-08-28T19:21:39+00:00

Who is your favorite superhero?

AlcidesGirl · 2014-08-28T19:28:11+00:00

Hi Adam, are you serious on set or goofy? When was the last time you laughed really, really hard?

Beats9 · 2014-08-28T19:29:37+00:00

Big fan here. We miss you on screen. It's great to have you back. Future projects?

baenafrancisco · 2014-08-28T19:43:12+00:00

Hi Adam, I've seen lot of things but to me you will always be that lovely Seth Cohen from The O.C.… you inspired my childhood, and I wanted to thank you for this.

Do people often confuse you for Jesse Eisemberg, or that's just me?

rosebud1979 · 2014-08-28T19:48:51+00:00

p0staldave · 2014-08-28T20:11:06+00:00

Did you enjoy working on Grind? Got any fun stories about making that film?

I ask because even though I'm 30-something, my wife and I still love that movie.

ani_kuthi · 2014-08-28T20:13:45+00:00

Hi! Big fan here! I fell in love with your acting when OC started and we were actually that big fans with my sister that we even watched it in german since there was not that good internet connection at a time and we had only german cable. I'm Hungarian so its a big thing! I was around 14 back than and didn't know german that well back than. BUT still we loved it later i re-watched it online in english. And it still reminds me of my childhood! Thank you for the sweet memories and for making my childhood amazing!!! I'm 26 now and an artist as Seth Cohen kinda' was! My question is: Can you actually draw? And how well :)

ani_kuthi · 2014-08-28T20:33:46+00:00

Hi Adam thanks for the AMA (kisses)! Basic question!

Zombie Apocalypse.

Two guys from the band Bastille (Dan and Kyle), said they would use Suarez on a stick as a weapon to protect themselves. What would you choose? :DD And do you know the band Bastille?

lexis92 · 2014-08-28T20:35:05+00:00

h3v · 2014-08-28T21:23:53+00:00

Your character on The O.C got me into Death Cab For Cutie, who are now my favourite band!

Did you discover any new music through the show, & if you have a favourite, what is your favourite Death Cab song?

mrsbass79 · 2014-08-28T23:05:19+00:00

Morning Adam. Just a quick question, how did you and leighton meet? It surprised me when i read that Seth Cohan ad Blair Wardorf were a married couple.

Patches67 · 2014-08-30T16:19:40+00:00

Do you ever get any scripts accidentally because a producer thought you were Adrian Brody?

PrincessSparkle87 · 2014-08-28T19:23:39+00:00

Hi Adam!!!

How are you?

First of all, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for being part of the best tv show ever made. (check out my username!)

My question is, what was the audition process like for The O.C.?

And two, what the most memorable experience for you being part of the show?

I'm so hyper and nervous typing this, The O.C. was and still is a huge part of my life and, well, like I said, thank you so much for being part of that!!

davidjl123 · 2014-08-28T19:35:32+00:00

amandatickles1 · 2014-08-28T19:18:10+00:00

Adam, can you tell us something about you we'd never guess, and something that would make us laugh? ;)

PartyOnAlec · 2014-08-28T19:18:17+00:00

Hey man, talk to me about your leisure time.

What do you do on a day off?
What do you do when you're kicking it with your friends?
What sort of music do you listen to?
What video games are you playing right now?
What's something you love, but are maybe a little embarrassed to admit?

jonemillard · 2014-08-28T19:19:32+00:00

Hi Adam! Here are some random questions: Boxers or Briefs? Socks or barefoot? Coffee or tea? Beach or mountains? Mani or pedi? Why/why not?

unicorn10-10 · 2014-08-28T19:22:15+00:00
