The Spirit Awards are great too, they'll say anything because they're not televised. Another great drinking night.

So much of the violence in the movies is b.s. violence: A guy in the middle of a large city with 14 people lying on the ground that he's just killed with his superhuman powers, and there's not a cop to be found. Not a siren to be heard. No price to be paid. That's not true, and I don't like that sort of stuff.

Ninety percent of the preparation we do as actors is just jive. It doesn't do anything.

A good actor's director, first of all, is prepared, so there's not an exorbitant amount of wasted footage.

At the end of the day, what actors really want to do is act a lot and not wait around in the trailer.

Directors work 10 times harder than anyone else. Get paid a quarter.

I've always felt it's the directors purview to say what; it's the actor's purview to say how. It's not good for an actor to have the big picture in mind - it bollocks you up. An actor's purview is the tiny little... We measure our performance in seconds.
