Any kind of crisis can be good. It wakes you up.

I remember exiting the birth canal and suddenly I was in a film. But you are never really in charge of that. The movie came out about five or six months ago in America. It was Miramax in the States and Disney here [fakes falling asleep]. What happened. I love working for Disney, not Walt specifically because he couldn't be more dead, but the company is fantastic.

When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

I don't think it's necessarily 100-percent true. But comic books have infiltrated the mainstream Hollywood in ways that I don't think I ever would have seen or thought imaginable a while ago. But it's also cyclical. You saw it in the '80s when it became kind of huge again. And then it disappears for a while, then it comes back again, then it disappears for a while. So yeah, there's something about that.

I don't expect success. I prepare for it.

I love doing six versions of any joke, so if they'll give me six takes, I'd love to do it.

I come from a family of cops, and all of them share that understanding that they put their lives on the line.
