I was four years old when I saw 'Star Wars,' and it has been significantly important throughout my entire life.
Over the last four years, I've made a habit of coming into my office in the morning and just getting to work.
Three or four years ago, I got really caught up in the movies people were making, the opportunities they were getting, and I was looking at them with bitterness. As soon as I decided that their career was their career and mine was mine and I would have to serve myself, my attitude changed. I'm as normal as you can be in these circumstances.
After working for 18 years, all of a sudden I became successful on a level where other people knew it. It's not a cat you can put back in the bag.
I had been acting since I was seven years old, but I had a combination of things happen at about the same time. 'Austin Powers' came out on DVD, I got a series regular gig on 'Buffy' and 'Can't Hardly Wait' came out.
I've worked on some really fun movies with some really creative and fun people and this is the most talented ... group I've ever worked with. We just had such a great time. The stuff you see in the movie is 30 percent of what happened. I wish that we had been filming it all the time because it was so much fun,
The word came back that we weren't right for Cartoon Network.
Benny Hill's character is this twisted sexual deviant who professes his love for obese women, which I thought was so funny. There was nothing like that in this movie, so I thought it would be fun to play my character as someone who had no social graces, yet was embittered by the fact he was universally refused by women.
We are very excited to continue Freshmen with Top Cow,? Green said. ?After the great response to the first mini-series, we've been looking forward to telling another chapter of this story. And believe me-you have no idea what's coming. It's awesome!
'Star Wars' is such a phenomenal global supernova that anything that gets said about it becomes kind of fact and gospel, and then taken by the legions of fans who are so excited to have more 'Star Wars,' that they roll off on all sorts of flights of fancy.
Doing something because it's quote-unquote a good career move doesn't really appeal to me. There's never a surefire good career move except doing good work.
You look at John Travolta in 'Pulp Fiction', you look at Donnie Wahlberg in 'The Sixth Sense.' People have liens against them in crazy ways and the audience is always forgiving - if you prove it.
I mean, we make a 15-minute show that's incredibly silly, even though all of our scenic designers, puppet builders. animators, everybody that works on the show take their work very seriously. So somebody saying that we'd even be in contention for a very respectable award is really nice.
All of my activities are so pedestrian. The extreme sport I play is ping pong. And we play it hard. If any of you suckers want to step up to the table, be ready.
