When 'American Pie' happened, I was so lucky to get that opportunity and I just tried to do a good job in that genre. But the films that inspired me as a kid were, like, Malcolm McDowall in 'A Clockwork Orange.' He was my hero.

You have to have fear to take risks - and I want to at least try.

I love everything Minnesota.

I don't think I had a Catherine Bach poster, but I know a lot of my friends desecrated those, big time.

I always think everything has been the best part of my life.

I'm not sure anybody's ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much, I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities.

Maybe I'll just become a cartoon character because there's nothing left for me to do in an R-rated comedy.
