life positively strongest
In my life, the strongest evidence of any fandom is 'Sherlock' - 'Hobbit' fans are positively restrained.
months
I think the hardest part about anything you do for 18 months is just keeping yourself together for 18 months.
record saying suppose
I was on record before I did 'The Hobbit,' saying I don't care at all about 3D. And I suppose I should now say I care a lot about 3D. I've always loved 3D, I think everything should be 3D, and I think it's just a shame 'The Godfather' wasn't in 3D.
landing screen
I think when see you a character on the screen who is actually being touched by the world, and the stuff is actually landing on him, it makes you empathize.
notice people switched though
Once you've switched that switch, then, though you notice that other people are great, you're just not interested.
force guiding whether
I don't want to be poor, of course. But I try not to make that the guiding force behind whether I choose to do something or not.
saying truth whatever
If everyone's just saying what they feel and doing whatever they want, there's no drama in the world. And there's also no truth to it, 'cause that's just not the truth.
dark fun spend time truly
Even someone as truly dark as Lorne Malvo is still very attractive, and you want to spend time with him because he's a fun character.
alone love people
I don't want to be alone; the thing I love about acting is the other people you're doing it with.

cast mainly played
I have played nasty people, but not everyone has seen that stuff. Before 'The Office,' I mainly got cast as little toe-rags.
conference life love press quiet
I like the quiet life sometimes. I also love a bustling press conference sometimes as well. I love a 600 metre red carpet.
characters
I don't have sentimental attachments to characters at all.
saw
I wanted to be an actor because I saw 'Dog Day Afternoon,' you know what I mean?
