I see Igby as my first movie as an adult, and it's a big deal for me because I really, really like the film.
Producers and studios know what sells. It's nice to be one of the guys that can help sell a movie by taking his shirt off.
I think the form, the Hollywood movie, I think the quality is obviously always going to be there and I think that the question of taste, there's always a question of taste.
It's taken me 15 years to step behind a camera and make something everyone agrees looks like a movie.
I feel like I've finally made it as an actor. I've been doing this for years and you don't always make a movie that everybody likes.
Angelina Jolie may get Antonio Banderas in bed for eight hours on a movie set, but I get him in bed everyday.
'Chronicle' could have been a video-game movie. The original 'RoboCop' and the remake could have come from video games.

The message of the movie is to accept who you are and not to succumb to the pressure of what the media tells you is beautiful and what you should be looking like.
I can never find a movie I want to watch, even though I've got hundreds to choose from.

And the insidious thing is that people will either see a movie because it did well last weekend or won't see it because it didn't do well.
I always feel like I can't do it, that I can't go through with a movie. But then I do go through with it after all.
You know how when you read a book and it becomes a movie, and it's different than you pictured? In some ways, acting is a lot like that.
If I ever have children of my own, they will read 'Matilda.' They will watch the movie. And you can bet they will see 'Matilda: The Musical.'
There's people saying that 'Jackie Brown' was a blaxploitation movie, when there's nothing at all blaxploitation about it other than Pam Grier being in it.
I think movie sets can often be stressful, and people take themselves very seriously.
How you start the movie is critical. And how often you feel that there's no reason for how it's starting.
