There will be new and exciting filmmakers to come and movies that will be great successes.

The first movie I can remember ever seeing was Hard Times with Charles Bronson and James Coburn. My dad also introduced me to the likes of Jimmy Cagney... John Garfield... Robert Ryan... Steve McQueen... James Caan... Those are my fondest memories.

For a lot of explosions and stuff like that [in Transformers] you're harnessed to something getting swung in the air or dragged onto something or thrown onto something.

I've always wanted to do right in life. But the wanting and the doing aren't quite the same thing.

I love the man that [Peter Berg] is, the father that he is, and the leader. We push each other in a way. It's competitive.

The important thing is that ever since I realized all the wrongs that I had done, I have been trying to correct them for the past 27 years.

I have a lot of real life experience with hustling and doing stupid stuff.
