I miss the city Bret and I live in, Wellington. It's a good place to be creative, in the same way New York is.

I think that would be great, if I could be in a city and wasn't even allowed to work.
amazing great large parts quite
What do I think of L.A.? It's boring, with some amazing nuggets. Like there are some parts of it that are great, but by and large I think it's quite boring.
friendship thinking hills
I can only think of one wacky best friend who I thought was awesome: Rhys Ifans in 'Notting Hill.' He really nailed the wacky best friend.

The writing is just a boring job. It's just a horrible job.

I'm a real pawn-shopper.

The book is even quirkier, but it's hard to bring all of that stuff to a movie. With a book, you use your imagination more and create your own way to make it all make sense.

Well, I grew up in the '80s, which was a really massive time for sci-fi.

I'm part Maori. My mum's Maori, and she raised me. And my grandma, she's Maori.
