In college, I learned that my favorite parts were the sad clown parts. Those are the ones I love because you get to do everything. You get to be funny, make them laugh one minute, and make them cry the next minute.
I grew up in Brooklyn.
I love all that stuff like 'Tales From The Crypt,' 'Twlight Zone,' and 'Amazing Stories.'
I must have seen the 'Twlight Zone' movie, like, a thousand times.
When I was a kid, I saw 'Heavy Metal' the movie, and my mind was blown. I loved the idea that you could have all these different stories in different styles that are linked together.
Sometimes it takes time to become part of the collective unconscious, just like 'Fanboys' did. Going into that movie, I said to myself that if you were a 'Star Wars' fan, you were going to love that movie. It's an homage to everything science-fiction, but especially 'Star Wars.'
I've always had a thing where, if I start something, it's gotta get finished. No matter how long it takes, I've gotta see it to fruition.
I think I approach everything as an actor first. I'd rather walk onto a set and just act and just worry about that.
I have a large pallette of tastes.
I'd love to do something on 'Mad Men.' Or play Peter Dinklage's cousin on 'Game of Thrones.' That would be fun.
I'm an observer - a watcher of movies my whole life.
When I was a kid, I remember thinking, 'When we reach the year 2000, everyone will have jetpacks, and it'll be like 'The Jetsons,' and we'll fly everywhere!'
It's a fine line between magic and science. In medieval times, science was magic.
I got to work with Ron Perlman. I've been a fan of his forever, since he was Vincent on 'Beauty and the Beast.'
I saw the 'Balls of Fury' script, and I was skeptical at first.
I had 'Star Wars' figures and G.I. Joes and Transformers and all the posters.
I'm a very physical actor.
I love getting crazy and sweaty and wild.
I've always felt like if I was going to be born any other time that it would be during the '60s or definitely during Woodstock.
