reading mean fans
I mean the good thing about Marvel is that they're really good about reading what they call the shareholders - the fans. Because they really are the keepers of what keeps these movies going, you know?
winning wife car
It's like, once you've seen Tom Hanks win the Golden Globes, the Oscars, you've seen his wife, what kind of car he drives, when you watch his movies, you can't fully get really lost in them.
news television shocked
I've never been shocked by anything on television, except the news.
years tvs seven
If I was roped into a seven-year TV contract I'd probably hang myself.
unique voice able
Being a fan of comedy, it's so unique, in their own voice. I was really stoked to be able to participate. They're so great at just coming up with stuff on the fly and making stuff funny.
enough infringement cheated
I stole a lot from Gary Oldman. I stole the hairdo from his incarnation of Dracula. We cheated it just enough, so we couldn't get accused of copyright infringement.
airplane thinking down-and
I didn't really because I know myself well enough to know that if I actually sit down and think about sort of I can spook myself out like anyone, you know? It's sort of like you've got to sort of jump out of the airplane when you're skydiving. If you spend 20 minutes sitting on the lip you probably won't do it.
writing stuff comedic
I feel more comfortable writing firmly comedic or slightly comedic stuff.
tired sometimes promoting
Normally when you're promoting something a lot, sometimes you get tired.
nice night vacation
There was a moment, late into the season, where I was noticing I was darkening a little bit at night. I was like, 'It will be nice when the show is over for the season. I need a vacation.'
growing-up cities late
D.C. is a hard city to grow up in. I couldn't find my footing there. Also, I got a late start academically, and I was dyslexic.
hate people annoyed
I hate when people make a really good product and then stop making it. I get annoyed.
jeans style
I've always been pretty happy with my style. I've been wearing tapered jeans since 1980 something.
bells bigs craze
In the '90s, there was a big bell-bottom craze. Everyone was wearing grungy bell-bottoms. It was so repugnant to me.
