"Billy Crystal has discussed his role in new comedy Parental Guidance. Crystal and Bette Midler star as a laid-back couple who agree to babysit for their neurotic daughter (Marisa Tomei), whose parenting style doesn&amp;#039;t mesh well with their own.  &amp;quot;I knew it could be real, I knew it could be funny, I knew it could be touching if we got the right people involved,&amp;quot; Crystal told Digital Spy, before going on to discuss the casting of Tomei and Midler.  Nine-time Academy Awards host Crystal also offered his opinion on the choice of Seth MacFarlane as host for the 2013 ceremony. &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s an interesting choice, and I think he&amp;#039;ll do fine,&amp;quot; he said, before speaking about MacFarlane&amp;#039;s qualifications for the job in more depth. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a big room - I just want him to be relaxed and have a good time.&amp;quot; Parental Guidance is out today (Wednesday, December 26).
