I think it's kind of strange when people talk about how hyped-up the movie is. It almost sets you up for a bigger fall.

As a writer, I haven't delved into dramatic writing. As an actor, I could always, even more so than comedy, do drama.

You really feel an obligation to someone when they're trusting you to do something, and you promise that you'll come through for them.

I love my parents. But I'm almost 28 and it's not fun to be asked, 'What are you doing today? What do you want for dinner? When are you going to be home?' It just makes you feel like a kid. It's this juxtaposition of feeling annoyed and really lucky to have people who love you so much.

It's not unexpected for me to be in a comedy film anymore; I'm no longer the underdog in that world.

The great thing about 'Allen Gregory' is that we try to make it really questionable that the things he says have happened, have really happened. We like that ambiguity.

I've never had issues with popularity. I was always a popular guy... I've always had friends and loved ones and everything, so it wasn't like, "Oh man, I gotta fill some void that was left by high school." I had a great high-school experience.
