I found it to be more challenging to be in a huge effects movie because a lot of the things aren't there.You have to trust the director and react to nothing.
Every single Pixar film at one time or another has been the worst movie ever put on film. But we know. We trust our process. We don't get scared and say 'Oh no this film isn't working.'
Well I took a sabbatical. I walked away from shooting movies because I couldn't handle the travel. I'm a single parent. I had young kids and I found that keeping in touch with them from hotel rooms and airports wasn't working for me. So I stopped.
Unlike some of the time-travel movies I love like 'Primer' or '12 Monkeys ' 'Looper' is not about time travel. It's about this situation that time travel creates and the people dealing with that situation. So narratively the big challenge was to have time travel get out of the way.
At the moment I'm doing this space movie so I'm obsessed with physics and space travel. I know three months down the line it's gone. Then I'll be able to superficially say stuff about space.
Movie acting is a great job for your twenties: You travel all over you have affairs with people and you throw yourself into one part and then another. It gets more challenging as you get older and it's not just having a daughter it's wanting to have your own life and be yourself.
I want to take piano lessons I want to study at university I want to travel I want to do other parts make another movie.
I'm really thankful to God man. Like now I'm really making a real comeback with my group. With or without a record with or without a movie. And behind all the negative press behind this movie.
Just because you have teenagers in a movie doesn't make it a teen movie.
I'm pretty sure this is it for the teen movie thing. It's so frustrating to read when you get to page 20 and you're like Oy! It's the same thing again!
I've never done a teen movie before but I certainly could tell you some of the ones I came very close on. I was very close on Clueless and She's All That.
I think I am too old to be doing teen movies. I am just kind of annoyed because you have all these teen movies coming out with usually either Lindsay Lohan or Hilary Duff doing four of the exact teen movies over and over again.
Material Girls was so different for me I'd never done a teen movie.
I don't want to just be in the normal kind of teen movie.
To be honest I haven't seen a lot of the current crop of teen movies because there's only so much time and there's nothing that really drives me to do it.
Final Destination was the closest thing I've done to a teen movie but it certainly had an edge to it.
Teen movies often have an unspoken underlying premise in which high school is seen as less serious than the adult world. But when your head is encased in that microcosm it's the most serious time of your life.
I think anybody who's doing work in their teen years on TV or in the movies you're a teen idol by default.
I found my niche as a character actor and I've never felt like a movie star or teen idol and never wanted to.
When I found out I had to take off my shirt in 'Teen' movie I panicked and hit the gym. I was like 'It's going to be on film documented for my children to see. I can't be 140 pounds. I need to put on a little bit of muscle.'
I wasn't going to have fun doing a teen movie again.
If a movie isn't a hit right out of the gate they drop it. Which means that the whole mainstream Hollywood product has been skewed toward violence and vulgar teen comedy.
The movie industry is committed to working with the technology sector to find innovative new ways to deliver entertainment to consumers.
Technology has not only changed the way people are able to view movies it has changed the way our industry produces and advertises movies.
The man who has done his level best... is a success even though the world may write him down a failure.
