What use is there for a biography of myself? I’m just a movie actor.

I want to do a musical movie. Like Evita, but with good music.

An ideal movie would be, like – to get this to happen, I have to work so much harder – but imagine Denzel Washington, Laurence Fishburne, Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy… Who else? Donald Faison. Directed...

I always wanted to do an animated movie. I find it to be incredibly liberating as a way of telling a story.

I recognized the great monument from the illustration in the copy of /The Jungle Book/ that my mother kept in the top drawer of my bedside table. When I went with Sophia to the Taj...

When you’re in that upper echelon in wrestling, any movie you take is gonna be a pay cut. If you’re gone for three months and they pay you 150 grand, you’re getting killed.

I’m making a movie about relationships, and I’m surrounded by guys scared of talking to girls.

I want to move people, stir something within them that makes them feel. That’s what a movie should do and an actor should do, make you feel something. I think that’s why people love films...

I think what makes a good actor’s director is the same thing that makes a good director. Acting is just one of the trades necessary to make a movie.

I think in every picture that I’ve ever made. Everything that I’ve done torments me. I really would like another chance except I’d be too embarrassed to ever really try to do them again and...

There are so many decisions in making a movie.

I’ve always thought John Travolta is one of the greatest movie stars Hollywood has ever produced.

I don’t really look forward to movie stardom or doing a $200-million movie or winning an Academy Award.

There are a lot of laughs in this movie, but it’s not just about the laughs. It’s really about the story, about a guy who finds his soul and realizes what’s truly important.

Well, unbeknownst to everybody, I did a movie when I was 19.

The Busy Bee Cafe was a popular hangout, especially after the young people attended the Princess Theater movies, … They would eat the delicious chili, Italian food and pies my mother made.

I tricked myself into doing this movie.

I’m the one who’s always been there for you… not him!

If I’m making a movie and get hungry, I call time-out and eat some crackers.

When I went down to Carolina, probably the biggest shock was when I went to the movies, they had an entrance for colored and an entrance for white and they had water fountains for colored...

Modern American war is as easy to script as a B movie.

Multiplicity was a movie that tested really well. People seeing the movie really liked it, but then the studio couldn’t market it. We opened on a weekend with nine other films.

Woody Allen has done some excellent serious movies, too, like Crimes And Misdemeanors. Very overlooked movie, I think, and really his best. And currently I like Big Fish!

Theatrically seeing a movie with a group of people and having a collective experience has an authenticity that you can’t get with your big screen television.

I’m so excited to see ‘Horns’ because it’s so many different genres in one film. It’s a sci-fi, it’s a love story, it’s a horror movie, it’s a fairy tale.

I’m a mama’s boy because everything I do is with respect to my mother. I won’t do a movie or a video that would bring disrespect to my mother.

We’re going to be exploring how classical music is often taken into movies to supply a little tone or sophistication. And we’re also going to show how music that is specifically written for movies will...

But see, that’s the thing about movies. Nothing is left to the imagination. You read a book, and you see a picture of the characters and the scenes in your mind. You don’t have that...

We’re not asking for a trip to the movies, we’re just asking for what everyone else receives.

I don’t want to put 12 singles on an album. I want to make a story, a little movie.

People here [in America] are interested in seeing more Chinese movies,

I really want to do something in Europe. With a small movie, it can be an interesting challenge. But I have to get the right project. I don’t think it’s so important to go to...

‘Thelma & Louise’ really hit a nerve, and I loved that movie.

What am I to think when six weekends of this year already have been won by slasher movies that were not screened for critics and got bad ratings on the tomato meter when they were...

In Europe, there is no horror movie. It’s very hard to make a slasher or gory movie. There is no audience for that.

I would’ve been a really big silent movie star.

It is funny that people always assume you have a bigger part in a movie than you actually do. I remember a lot of people thought ‘Adventureland’ starred me and Kristen Wiig. But we were...

I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, you’ve made it.

In the original ‘Star Wars’ movie, there is a small toaster-sized and shaped robot on the Death Star that guides Stormtroopers to where they need to go. I always liked that robot because I could...

When the ‘Fight Club’ movie was going into production, I quit my job so I could write full-time.

You need enough people (buying tickets) so that it’s going to be somewhat comparative with commercial movies. It’s not a criticism; it’s a mathematical equation.

‘3:10 to Yuma’ was one that I just kept on talking and thinking about after reading it. And I think the reason is because, like in most Westerns, you have the very clear-cut bad-guy/good-guy, however,...

I also know that in the second movie, the sequel, Eric made some huge advances with the robot suit. That just made it even better. You put the suit on and moved your arms then...

If you make a movie about Elizabeth I, how much of the dialogue is her real words? Audiences know when they go see a movie that it is fiction.

When Pixar calls and says, ‘Hey, you wanna be in a Pixar movie?’ you don’t do a lot of contemplating!

‘Footloose’ is a fun movie. If you do it right, people should leave wanting to dance.

I’m elected. I don’t report to any politician. I report to the people. If I had to report to any politician, I’d quit tomorrow. I’m not tall, dark and handsome. They don’t vote for me...

We’ve always been into horror movies. The Nightmare on Elm Street films, I’ve seen a million times. We watch a wide variety of horror movies. Travis just has a huge folder of them on the...

You think you’re in the movies / And everything’s so deep / But I think that you’re wild / When you flash that fragile smile

I wanted it to be like a high quality, drive-in movie.
