I love going to movies.
I definitely have found a balance. I've had so many offers in the past to do different movies or different things and I always choose tournaments over it.
My interest in film is sort of catholic - apart from science fiction and horror movies I'll watch almost everything.
Before I'd written movies I never could do big set-piece scenes with a lot of different speakers - when you've got twelve people around a dinner table talking at cross purposes. I had always been impressed by other people's ability to do that.
I'm a big fan of vampire movies generally and that sort of tradition of characters.
Even if we die at 100 we're still dying young. I want at least 700 years. There's a lot of travelling and books to read and movies to see. I'm not going to squeeze it all in in 85 years.
Why be boring? Have some fun. Rock shows should be like movies: I don't go to a movie hoping it'll change my life.
I for one am tired of seeing movies about men damaging each other.
There really are three types of 'religious' movies: the ones that make fun of it the ones that vilify it and the ones that literally preach to the converted.
I've played a lot of mothers in my movies.
I'm a weird big guy. Doing rapping doing movies. Do a lot of stuff. But always do things the right way.
Reality TV looks more like America than movies do.
I'm fed up with the idiots... the ever-widening gap between people who know how to make movies and the people who green-light the movies.
My passion is doing movies so as long as I keep doing that I will be happy.
My passion is doing movies and as long as I keep doing that I'll be happy. I want to do movies fun roles and dramatic ones. I love all of it.
The physical part of comedy is as hard as a lot of action movies. It scares me but in a way that I like.
I was watching 'Up In The Air' and I thought 'Jesus who's the old gray-haired guy?' And it was me. I never wear makeup for movies and now it's starting to show.
I took acting classes in college and once I graduated I decided to give acting a shot when I couldn't really think of anything else to do. It took me a couple of years to get an agent and my first big break was The Fanelli Boys which was a sitcom on NBC. Then I did a few television movies.
I rarely see one of the 'summer blockbuster' movies. I'd like to see a stronger focus on smaller smarter movies.
De Niro was a hero of mine. And Sean Penn. But I've realized I can't operate at that level of intensity. That's okay for movies. On TV when you live with horror day in and day out you have to protect yourself.
My childhood was influenced by the roles my father played in his movies. Whether Abraham Lincoln or Tom Joad in the 'Grapes of Wrath ' his characters communicated certain values which I try to carry with me to this day.
The movies that are made more thoughtfully or made or with more ambition often get just get drowned out by the noise.
Movies absorb our attention more completely I think.
Class is often invisible in America in the movies and usually not the subject of the film.
