The good news is that The Hangover Part III isn't a rerun like the second episode. The bad news is everything else. For all the promise of mayhem and WTF moments, the final episode hits you with all the force of a warm can of O'Doul's.
The characters are so flat and the dialogue so dull you expect it to be one of those movies whose existence is justified by a big final twist. But it's three days after the screening, and still no twist. Maybe it's coming in the mail?
The movies are celluloid hemorrhoids. No, worse: They're celluloid Bon Jovi.
I think there are definite parallels between sport and art. There's a real sense of sacrifice. There's a real sense of dedication that is needed in sport that I think you can attribute to art. I think so much of it is about bravery and courage, being an actor.
Being an actor is about having the courage to follow your instincts, and also having the discipline and dedication to sacrifice the things in your life that you need to sacrifice to get the best out of yourself artistically.
There's something very intimate about taking someone's work, turning it over and unpicking it. In the same way people have unique handwriting people have a sewing style. You do start building a fantasy relationship with the person.
Lyrical content is very important to me. I'm always trying to make sure the lyrics and music complement each other perfectly.
As an actor I can sort of smell a duff note, that isn't full of that much conviction. My worst thing with directors is when I know more than them about the character.
Directing made me realise what I do as an actor that's extraneous, it focuses your mind on story, story, story.
Nothing can prepare you for the changes that take place in your life - for the changes, not only in my life, but my family's. Nothing can prepare you for the enormity and the transition that you go through.
One of the exciting things about producing a comic is seeing the artist stamp his own interpretation on it.
I am a terrible sleeper.
I got injured when I was a kid, and it prevented me from becoming a footballer.
It's very rare that I play cool people. I'm not sure what that says about me.
