While covering the red carpet for the 2011 MTV Movie Awards, we managed to corner the market in mid-80s teen remake coverage. In addition to our video interview with Footloose director Craig Brewer, we spoke to Ziah Colon, who takes over for Sarah Jessica Parker in the part in the remake. We also spoke to Criminal Minds creator and Teen Wolf Executive Producer Jeff Davis as well as his female lead, Crystal Reed.During the interviews we discuss how Teen Wolf draws inspiration from both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and William Shakespeare, Davis’s most embarrassing high school moment, how a lily white boy can learn to dance and much more. Hit the jump for the interviews and a fun drinking game.To play the drinking game, watch all of our 2011 MTV Movie Award interviews and take a shot every time I say, “That’s exciting!†to one of the entertainers.
