I think when you're looking for scripts or for characters around your own age, a lot of the times they don't have the kind of responsibility that is usually seen in parts that are older for you.
I just really enjoyed all that kind of responsibility, I loved the fact that many people cared. I was doing 4 hours of boxing, 2 hours of weights, an hours of accent and dialect training, I just enjoyed having to do all that for this character [ Vinnie Paz in Bleed for This].
I think hopefully as you're getting older you're getting parts that require more preparation, and by that I just mean - I don't know, usually the older you get you get characters with more responsibility. Each one is different, there are certain movies that when the guy starts you pretty much come with that character on page one and then you see their growth, whereas other guys a lot has happened before that movie starts and you have to come in with something.
I grew up in a very small town in Florida, like, 7,000 people.
'Footloose' is a fun movie. If you do it right, people should leave wanting to dance.
When I was in high school, there was 'Superbad' and 'The Girl Next Door' and 'Wedding Crashers' and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that's smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like 'Superbad.' That movie was so good and so funny.
I like girls who are cute and naturally funny. As long as they are not too high-maintenance, then we're good.
I think girls are surprised when you actually really listen and then you call it back at the end of the night.
In most relationships, somebody cares about the other one more and that's usually why you get out of a relationship because it's not reciprocated.
I don't trust a girl that doesn't eat. I find that a little sketchy.
Some girls have crazy eyes. You can spot that!
At the end of the day, it's hard to keep relationships with people. I've got my family, my best friends and if a girl's gonna be a part of that then it's got to be good. If not, I'm out.
Acting doesn't exist in a vacuum. You need the director to have a set of eyes.
As a drummer, you can't fake the instrument. A trumpet, you could be blowing air; a person who plays the trumpet could still say, "Oh, those aren't the right hand motions." On drums, you have to actually hit them. You can't fake it.
