I feel entirely grateful and appreciative of being able to make something up and do it, and I'm very grateful how well it's gone. I'm a guy from Toronto who just wanted to be an actor since he was eight so it's all kind-of crazy. Shrek has been wonderfully successful, it did really well in the States, and so it's magical to me, still. I'm still that kid from Toronto.

Dr. Evil got shortchanged in the first one. The family dynamic between Scott and Dr. Evil - the adventures of being an evil single parent - needed to be explored.

Europe is weird songs that would never make it in America.

Having a kid is like falling in love for the first time when you're 12, but every day.

Enlightenment is lightening up.

I had done Shrek as a Canadian and I'm very proud to be Canadian, but I knew I could give more to it.

I've been frozen for 30 years. I've got to see if my bits and pieces are still working.
