“You know, you’re a great barbecuetionist.”

Okay, using the dreaded middle name is not the best way to forge a bond.

It helps if you don’t date other actors, but actresses are beautiful. How can you say no?

I try to make all of my roles likeable in some way.

I don’t know anyone who’s going to see Grind 22 times in the theater. My mom. Some kid who has short-term memory loss and forgot that he’s seen it.

I’ve had to fight for roles and I’ve lost a hundred roles, but ‘Smoking’ and ‘Smith’ were phone calls. That’s the dream.

I always knew I was going to die in space.

I love movie-making. I’m interested in writing and directing, and I’ve dabbled, but I haven’t done anything I care to brag about. Yet.

I’m a fake intellectual.

I feel like Hollywood is a big high school again. Seriously, Ashton Kutcher is the prom king.

I always enjoyed movies and in hindsight I realise how captivating they were to me.

I like an interesting movie even if it’s controversial or offensive, depending on your taste.

I just want to be in good things that I want to see, and I want to work with talented people who are smarter than myself.

There’s no conversation more boring than talking about what it’s really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don’t care.

If I don’t direct a movie at some point, I’ve failed personally.

It’s bad writing, however naturalistic it’s written, that’s where you have to do your best acting.

My best jokes are so cheap. All I do is say things sarcastically.
