Comedy really is my bread and butter, even when I’m doing a serious character, with the exception of Outcast. I have found very little humor in this character.

It wasn’t ’til I met Chris Ellis, who directed me in a little thing that was actually for a ride in Universal Singapore, for those of you who happen to be going to Universal Singapore.
![Brent Spiner Quote - That’s what kids were like then. So I really like the movie [Dude, Where’s My Car? ], I think it’s genuinely funny, and I wish I hadn’t been so arrogant about it. And, of course, I didn’t know it was going to be my best work, either.](https://minimalistquotes.com/images/thats-what-kids-were-like-then-so-i-really-like-th.jpg)
![Brent Spiner Quote - Earl Mills is probably the best role I’ve ever been given in a film. And it was a great experience to work with Halle [Berry] and Klaus Maria Brandauer, an Austrian actor who’s a hero of mine.](https://minimalistquotes.com/images/earl-mills-is-probably-the-best-role-ive-ever-been.jpg)

![Brent Spiner Quote - I didn’t really watch the show [Star Trek]. I still haven’t seen about 150 of them. So I didn’t really think of them too much in terms of episodes. I thought of them as kind of one long seven-year episode.](https://minimalistquotes.com/images/i-didnt-really-watch-the-show-star-trek-i-still-ha.jpg)
![Brent Spiner Quote - I had no idea I was part of what was going to be a big mega-hit. I thought I was doing a B sci-fi movie [Independence Day].](https://minimalistquotes.com/images/i-had-no-idea-i-was-part-of-what-was-going-to-be-a.jpg)
![Brent Spiner Quote - Pierre [from Dude, Where’s My Car?] could be the best thing I’ve ever done. When you distill it down to a minute and a half of work, that may be my finest effort.](https://minimalistquotes.com/images/pierre-from-dude-wheres-my-car-could-be-the-best-t.jpg)
