I live right in the middle of nowhere and I thoroughly enjoy it.
I want to take a few years out, maybe make a couple of more films or whatever.
And to me, fame is not a positive thing. The idea of being famous is a lot better than the reality. It's fantastic when you go to premieres and people cheer you, but it's not real. And it's totally not my approach to get my name on a club door just because I can.
I'm always buying gadgets, especially at airports.
I'd like to own my own garage and my own fishery. I'd also like to be a professional fisherman. But I'll take whatever happens.
I used to have some fish, some nice little carp, but they got too big for the tank. I don't have any pets now.
Well, my closest friends are still the ones that I went to school with, but it's nice to go to work, at the studios, and have people there that you're willing to talk to and have a good conversation with.
I don't like to label films with a genre.
I bought a lot of rubbish things that kids buy: skateboards and clothes and typical teenage stuff.
No, I don't suppose I'm so much a collector sort of person.
If you're put on a set with a lot of people, it's just nice to see everyone working together.
The Japanese fans always send weird things.
It's like in politics: You can have great intentions for the world, but if you're not a good speaker and if you're not the sort of person that people can intimately link with, then it makes it very easy to say, "Well, they're not a nice person."
This project is an exciting opportunity for us. Our ability to self perform much of the work is key to meeting this very challenging schedule.
