I need help to follow some sentences in this interview about the Deleted Scenes in Civil War Here is the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzzgOe8JS6Q I'm trying to transcribe this video, but I fail to follow when the actors speak too fast or talk at the same time. And I had a hard time understanding what Paul Rudd was saying. I have marked the times and the words. 00:10 Renner: My goodness it’s [??? clues so strong???] Olsen: We haven’t seen it so we don’t know what [?] make up 00:58 PAUL RUDD: Say there’s probably lots of movie deleted scenes that are jokes and things on the DVD. I think they tend to do that on most of these. 【What does he mean by "on most of these"? Does"these" refer to jokes?】 And certainly there are some great actors on this that are funny and… I can only imagine things [where Robert Downey Jr. might do it like don’t make the movie?] 【I have no idea what this sentence mean...】 But in [???] I was in I don’t know if [there’d be that much?] Thank you very much for your help!!! :)

@10 sec: My goodness, my goodness, this Kahlua is so strong. ( Kahlua is an alcoholic drink that's probably mixed in with the coffee he's drinking). He's slurring his speech, it took me three listens to get it. Olsen is indistinct. They talk over each other. Maybe someone else lend you a hand with the other lines. Good Luck!

0:10 Renner: My goodness it’s [??? I don't know what he is saying. I think he is purposely making fun of himself for getting his tongue tied and it was not supposed to make sense???] Olsen: We haven’t seen it so we don’t know what [?parts made it?] 00:58 PAUL RUDD: Say there’s probably lots of movie deleted scenes that are jokes and things on the DVD. I think they tend to do that on most of these. 【What does he mean by "on most of these"? Does"these" refer to jokes? = means they tend to put deleted scenes that are funny on the DVDs for movies like this】 And certainly there are some great actors on this that are funny and… I can only imagine things [THAT Robert Downey Jr. might do that, like, don’t make the movie?] 【I have no idea what this sentence mean...=Robert Downey Jr. is a funny guy so a lot of funny things he did and said during filming probably are NOT in the actual movie】 But in [stuff that] I was in I don’t [think] know if [there’d be that much.] - referring to the fact that there are probably not many funny things that he did to add to the DVD extras. Sorry I couldn't help much with that first section! Adding 'like' is a weird sort of cultural thing that happens a lot in America. For sure in CA where I live but I'm not sure about the rest of the country but we tend to put 'like' into the pauses in our sentences while speaking. It drives me nuts and it really drives me nuts when people actually write that way. It is grammatically incorrect.
