My interest in film is sort of catholic - apart from science fiction and horror movies, I'll watch almost everything.
I used to watch every episode of 'Justice League,' I went to all the movies, I had the Superman lunchbox. I was enamored with animation in general and always wanted to somehow be a part of it.
I grew up watching Letterman, 'Seinfeld,' 'SNL,' and Monty Python movies. But nothing made me want to get into comedy more than when 'Mr. Show' started airing.
I'm never interested in movies where you don't care about the people you're watching, and that's my biggest quibble about horror, that kids have gotten stupider and stupider.
I grew up not reading fiction; I watched movies and read comic books, and one of the ways I taught myself to think about narrative was through film.
My mother loved Gene Wilder when I was growing up, so I used to watch all his movies with her. I just adore him.
As a movie-goer, I really like to watch all different kinds of movies and, as an actor, I always feel like I could do pretty much anything but a musical.
There are roles for all types of movies. I mean, you still want to watch the urban movies, and they need to be told. You still want to see something you haven't seen before.
I was born in 1950 and watched science fiction and horror movies on TV and was always really fascinated by them.
I started watching movies my grandpa did, and I saw what an impact they made on the world. That's when I said, 'Hey, I want to do that too.'
Despite the impression you may have from watching too much TV, movies are not about reproducing reality. They're about telling stories.
Jack O'Donnell: [to Tony Mendez] The whole country is watching you, they just don't know it
Mad Hatter: [after "fixing" the White Rabbit's watch] Two days slow, that's what it is.
Homeless Man: [watches as Bruce Wayne is thrown out of Falcone's establishment] Should've tipped better!
Personally, I really enjoy sci-fi. I watch it, I read comic books, and I play video games.
You know, I always say this - As an actor, we're lucky to get a job. Then we're lucky that anybody gives a damn to watch the thing that we're in.
I talk, watch TV, spout opinions, schmooze, negotiate, talk some more, play games, and have a little cocktail.
'Othello' is the most domestic of Shakespeare's tragedies and the one that's likely to strike a personal note with a lot of people watching it.
I think it's insulting to an audience to make them sit and watch a film and then give them a message in one sentence.
Whenever I watch a show and twentysomethings have a lot of 'Star Wars' references, I know it's written by a 40-year-old dude.
When a guy takes off his coat, he's not going to fight. When a guy takes off his wristwatch, watch out!
