bigs shoppers
I'm not a big shopper.
bugs
Bugs have always loved me.
dream figures something-you-love
If you can figure out how to get paid to do something you love, that's the dream.
country responsibility thinking
I want people to think about everyone in their life, and their responsibilities to their friends, their families and their country.
country political belief
I hope that I would put whatever my political beliefs aside, and realize that my country's asked me to to something, and do it.
wanted bruised beaten
I wanted to be kicked and hit and bruised up and beaten. It became something that was an absolutely necessary part of every day for me.
fighting bully guy
Fighting really does reveal everything to the other guy. It's not just about who can beat up to or who's tougher, it's who bullies who and who goes easy on who. You change from opponent, so it's about how you deal with a challenge and how you deal with a guy who you can handle easily.
fighting thinking athletic
We all come from different levels, and I think every human has their own relationship to violence, athletic violence and fighting.
boxing shy nervous
I come from athletics and I have a pretty big boxing background, so I never really shy away or get nervous about the physical rigors of filmmaking.
sleep home fighting
People have different goals, when you start out making a movie. If the goal is darkness and destruction and despair, it's not like, "Hey, let's go to set, and then let's hit the bar afterwards. Let's jaunt into London and pick up some Chinese food." No, you go home from set and you go fight at the gym, and then you go to sleep. You stay in it. You never excuse yourself, you never take it easy on yourself, you never eat good food.
