“I'm sure a bunch of 15-year-old kids would way rather I do 'Superbad 2' than 'Moneyball.' But I would love to do movies like 'Superbad' and movies like 'Moneyball.'”

“I'm used to watching old movies of myself.”

“It's like, if you can't focus on a movie for 90 minutes without looking at your phone, then don't go to the movies! You've got some issues, so you should probably stay home and work on those issues, and not distract everyone with lights, and sounds, oh my gosh, the tapping on the screens, it makes me crazy!”

“I missed out on everything. Sometimes on the street I see teenagers hanging out and going to the movies, going to concerts, and I get so jealous.”

“It's time for me to do things I like so I will be happy, my wife will be happy, my friends will be happy. I just want to do something I'm proud of. It's time for me to change. I could sign with a company for 10 movies and I'm the king of video and so what?”

“I may be alone in this, but I do sense the power of film, in that movies have the ability to literally change people's minds. That's pretty powerful stuff when you consider that.”

“I was a total athlete. I loved sports, but when I realized I wasn't going to be a professional athlete, I realized I wanted to be in movies.”

“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.”

“Movies are movies, and I don't think any of them are going to hurt the moral fiber of America and all that nonsense.”

“All studio movies are the middle of the Bell curve. The only way to do something is to do it yourself. And the only way to do that is to not take any money from anyone or take as little money as possible from anyone and that's it.”

“I love making movies and hope to write my own screenplay someday and do some producing and be behind-the-scenes as well.”

“When I meet gay fans out and about, they're so great to talk to - and I'm big on hugging, because I'm from the Midwest. They're just so energetic and loving. I'm proud to have those fans, and their support means a lot to me. I don't want just girls coming to my movies I want guys to come, too!”

“I actually think I have an audience member's sensibility about going to the movies.”

“I don't think of it as a competition - which might surprise you, given the way movies are reported constantly.”

“I'm not impressed by someone's degree... I'm impressed by them making movies.”

“Sometimes I make very selfish choices like I did 'Once Upon A Time' for my inner 8-year-old and my hypothetical future child. I've done some movies because I would regret them if I didn't, but other projects I've done because they've scared me or if I felt I needed to do a big romantic comedy to help me professionally.”

“The only reason why I would like to be accepted? Because if your movies don't do well, after a while you don't get to make any more movies.”

“I like the good feeling movies.”

“In movies and in television the robots are always evil. I guess I am not into the whole brooding cyberpunk dystopia thing.”

“Making movies is not rocket science. It's about relationships and communication and strangers coming together to see if they can get along harmoniously, productively, and creatively. That's a challenge. When it works, it's fantastic and will lift you up. When it doesn't work, it's almost just as fascinating.”

“I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.”
