Are you interested in doing another movie together?
HAIM: I think that's something we're just gonna take day by day.
FELDMAN: Exactly. We get offers constantly, but it's gotta be the right thing.
HAIM: We'd want it to be something very special. It's been a very long time.
FELDMAN: We wouldn't be doing National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon Part II or Last Resort Part II, he meant to say. Our decision-making process has changed quite a bit from when we were kids. We used to do stuff just to keep the career going, just to make money, and nowadays, I think we look at things a bit more artistically. It's gotta be quality and it's gotta be something that we feel is worthy of putting the Two Coreys stamp on, if you will.
HAIM: Now that we've been together for a good off-and-on 20 years....
FELDMAN: He's making it sound like we're married.
HAIM: You don't have any ring on your finger from me. Oh wait, you do have a ring on your finger from me.
FELDMAN: I actually do, that's kind of wrong.
HAIM: I got Corey and me matching Tiffany rings for Hanukkah, for Christmas, for our show, for life, for everything. I got us like matching actor-buddy rings.
Are you wearing them right now?
FELDMAN: Corey lost his.
HAIM: Mine's in Toronto, and it's somewhere under my bed. I hope.
FELDMAN: I'm a little emotionally scarred by the whole thing.
HAIM: Sorry, bro. Maybe I'll buy one this week. I don't know if Corey's wearing his or not.
FELDMAN: Yeah, I actually have it on right now.
HAIM: It's the 1837 925 series. It's not about the price. It's for us.
Has your friendship changed now that you've stopped filming?
HAIM: We'll be best brothers for ever and ever, and past the grave. If I don't see Corey for 10 years, it's like not a second has gone by.... I'm happy he's settled down and has a beautiful child and he's happily married. I just love him.
FELDMAN: And I love Corey regardless of what life choices he makes and what direction his life goes. Whatever he does, as long as he's happy. And as long as he's....
HAIM: Clean.
FELDMAN: And proud of himself and what he's doing.
HAIM: I appreciate that, kid. If you were like the Burger King manager of the month, do you think it would matter to me?
FELDMAN: As long as I make your fries properly.
HAIM: SHUT UP!
FELDMAN: ''Would you like some extra ketchup with that, Mr. Haim?''
HAIM: ''Thank you. Damn! Thank you. Yes, I would. What's up homey?''
FELDMAN: ''Would you like to try our chocolate shake today?''
HAIM: ''Yes, I would. Damn, 'bout time you asked.'' See, I would definitely be nice to him.
I was on Haim's website and saw that he does have a second career: Painting. Do we see any Corey Haim artwork on the show? (You can commission a piece for $788.)
HAIM: You do.
FELDMAN: I'll just say this: I've got two paintings from Mr. Haim in my home. which I display.
HAIM: He actually does, they're up.
FELDMAN: One of them was from many years ago, when he was in a darker place. And it's interesting because that one's in darker colors, whereas the one that he did on the show is a bit brighter in nature. So it's interesting, the artist's perspective on that.
HAIM: You know what, man, I hadn't even thought about that, dude. That's a great point. The one I did for Core [before], was something I was calling anger art, taking the brush and just whipping the paint. Red and black colors. This [recent] one, it's colorful. It just shows when you're different in your head, how things work. I get what you're saying, kid, that's very smart.
FELDMAN: It's just an observation.
HAIM: It's a good observation.
