I was just watching "So You Think You Can Dance," flipping channels, and I was like man, I could never do that.

At least it's really entertaining when I embarrass myself.

Hard work always wins in the end.

I've always done a lot of stunts in the past, and I sound like I'm tooting my own horn here, but I've always impressed the people I've worked with and they've let me do more and more.

I have a lot of respect for people with a lot of talent.

On the first one, X-Men: First Class, it would be James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult and I. I'd basically inhale, there would be a red flashing light, and then the stuff at the end of the hallway would just blow up. It really felt like I could do those things, but, sadly, I can't. It was a lot of fun; I got to play a superhero that I was familiar with since I was a kid. It doesn't really get much better than that.

Actually there were [ in MacGyver] a lot of things about the original that focused on the character, but not too many people seem to remember that.
