The fact that you can see a movie at home, it's great. You're making it for as many people to see it as possible. And that's nice.
I'm sure everyone's got their back story. I don't come from a place of where I was tortured and needed to let something out. I came from a very happy home. I was a little out of control at times. But my family... we all liked to be funny, we all liked to make each other laugh.
SNL is a home. You've got all of your brothers and sisters there, and it's a great time.
When you're shooting a movie you are away from home most of the time. It's an amazing thing that we get to do what we get to do, but you definitely are away from the family more than you'd like to be.
I'm not comfortable being around too many people.
The Wedding Singer will be the first time I've done a movie and Farley won't be calling me up the night it opens.
So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink, put you to bed when you've had too much to drink.Oh, it could be so nice to grow old with you, I wanna grow old with you.
I choose to ignore hell in my life. When I was a little kid I asked my Dad "Am I going to go to hell?" because I'd heard about hell. And he said, "Nothing you're gonna do will get you into hell." And so I got to ignore it.
One night I couldn't sleep. It was like 2:00 in the morning. I was thinking, 'What can I do?' I'm watching TV. I'm like, 'Let me do something else.' I'm not going to fall asleep for a few hours. What are my hobbies? There was the masturbation option. I skipped that because just knowing my kids are down the hall I felt psychotic. So, I went with watching more TV. I couldn't come up with anything. I was going, 'God, read a book.' Then I was like this, 'Where do I keep the books?' I've got nothing to do but watch TV.
My hobbies are run-on sentences.
I did rocks, all this dumb stuff. But now it's just trying to stay afloat and just get through the days.
I was a big fan of Kurt Russell growing up and I always wanted to be the modern day Kurt Russell.
I still like some of the stuff, skateboarding. Just stupid things.
I say things, like every other parent, that reminds you of your own parents. One thing I do know about being a parent, you understand why your father was in a bad mood a lot.
