It's always fun to play a bad guy because you get more to do. It's more arch. There's more energy to throw into it.

To me, the punk rock kids I grew up with were really, really smart, and to me, respecting those kids was a really big deal.

Being onstage is like being rock star. Whereas if you're doing a movie, it's such a confined space. You know, you do a comedy, it's so hard, too, 'cause with a comedy, there's no vocal reaction, there's no energy that you get back that spurs you on to be funnier because everyone has to be quiet.

Hollywood used to be run by artists and people who loved artists... people who wanted to make movies for all the right reasons. For the love. The Art. To tell stories. Yes to make money as well, but it was about both. Now I feel, it's mostly about bottom line and making money.

Nothing would make my kids happier than to do another movie.

Charlie Brown's good. I always had a little crush on that Lucy. I thought she was kind of a hot little brunette.

You can inspire people to give you greatness, or you can micro-manage them into your own one specific kernel of an idea. To me, I think that when you inspire people to give their best, then you're going to get the best result.
