Eichner and Rogen knew that a difference in tone would be necessary for the photo-realistic aesthetic style that defines Favreau's film. As Eichner puts it, "Lane and Pumbaa portrayer Ernie Sabella kept in their characters, the vaudeville banter of the Broadway production of Guys and Dollsthey had just concluded, before recording their roles in the 1994 film." In Disney's National Geographic-chic reinvention, the theatrics had to be recalibrated, if not toned down. "Seth and I are obviously not coming out of a production of Guys and Dolls, but I think overall our dynamic is a bit more conversational," says Eichner. "I'm not saying it's subtle, but it is conversational." Rogen echoes the evaluation: "To me the funniest parts are how casual and off-handed our rapport is, in that it really does not feel like we're putting on a show. It just feels like two characters who genuinely know one another very well. And that's Jon's sensibility. Jon is so good at grounding things. I remember that's why I was obsessed with Swingers when I was young - it's one of the most grounded comedies I've ever seen. And so Jon was always, in a great way, hard on [us] that it shouldn't feel cartoony."
