I'm really proud of 'Moneyball.' To me, it's about feeling pride in a movie I made. I think when I'm an old man I'll be able to show it to my grandkids with pride. That's all I can really go for: making movies to please me.

It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do. It's not unexpected for me to be in a comedy film anymore; I'm no longer the underdog in that world. Not that I'm great or good at it or anything, it's just that I've done a bunch of them, so you're not shocked.

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

You just have to be strong and don't be stupid; freedom of choice is a big responsibility.

I play a lot of games on my iPhone. There is a game called Rat on a Scooter that I will promote as much as possible because it has brought me so much joy.

I grew up in the '80s in L.A., so Ice Cube and Magic Johnson are my heroes.

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.
