I'm one of the most fortunate guys around,I still get to do those kinds of movies, and then I get to do Green Lantern, and I get to do Buried with an auteur like Rodrigo Cortés. I enjoy that I can get away with that.
I know people that have blacked out that I party with that don't do anything irresponsible. They just act drunk. I don't think people should ever drink by themselves because they need to have friends around that can keep them in line in case they do blackout.
Oh God, 'the game,' ... From what I remember, it's just a really disgusting exercise in homophobic futility ... I cannot even believe it made it into this movie. It's disgusting.
When you sign on to say, "Okay, yeah, let's develop this," usually that turns into, "Oh, he's doing it." But there's no script for some of these things.
I have bullshit moments every once in a while - like every actor does.
We talked to everyone to work the problem and tried to stay calm and cool. It feels good to have something you train so long for go well. You just never think this is going to happen to you.
It was comical because you're at a firing range, all these people are so seriously shooting their little guns.
It's very tricky to throw a morally flexible character onto the screen and have an audience empathize. It's always an exercise in restraint.
My career has been an inch at a time.
I dragged my wife from our honeymoon in Africa and landed her in Ontario, Canada, when it was -40 degrees,
The ‘friend zone’ is like the penalty box of dating, only you can never get out. Once a girl decides you’re her ‘friend,’ it’s game over. You’ve become a complete non-sexual entity in her eyes, like her brother, or a lamp.
Laughing can serve you in dark moments and even help you crawl your way back out.
My father was swallowed alive by his own anus. It was a terrible way to go.
I've always relied on discipline to achieve goals great and small. At a young age, my father instilled a real work ethic in me - and a fear of men. I always felt like if I didn't have a natural knack for something, I could kind of out-discipline the competition as it were. So I would always work as hard as I possibly could, sometimes to my own detriment and my personal life. For me, I think will power and discipline are very synonymous.
