I'm not sure anybody's ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much, I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities.
If I wasn't an actor and I watched my films, I could easily be like 'This guy's a clown,' you know?
There are a lot of movies I've done that come and go, and don't really establish a growing fan base.
The longest road trip I've ever been on is from Minnesota to Los Angeles.
I went to college for about a year in California.
Most actors feel only one way. We're just grateful to have a job.
I live in New York, where people don't tend to go up to actors as much.
As I've gotten older, I've become attracted to things that have substance.
I don't want to get home from work and wonder if I could have done better if I didn't go out that night. What you're doing is going to go on the big screen and go down in history.
I love being able to create something from the page and bring it to life.
I always think everything has been the best part of my life.
When I was maybe like, under 10 years old, I was kind of like a maniac.
Everyone should walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. I did it three days in a row because it was one of the most exhilarating experiences I've ever had. The view is breathtaking.
New York is like a vacation - no beach required.
In L.A. everyone is in the entertainment industry, so you're forced to think about work.
I've definitely been typecast, but I have time to do other things and I was glad to have the chances I did.
I would watch 'The Dukes of Hazzard' on loop. At one point I had 30 televisions in my bedroom and I would watch it over and over.
I tend to go for women with common sense. Being down to earth stands out more than looks.
I was a total athlete. I loved sports, but when I realized I wasn't going to be a professional athlete, I realized I wanted to be in movies.
I wish I had more confidence.
I'm cool with the way I look, I'm not an ugly dog, but I don't see myself as a stud or anything.
I don't generally do movies that get good reviews.
You know, I've always wanted to do dramas. When I moved to L.A., that was my dream, because I never really grew up watching comedies, although of course I loved 'Dumb & Dumber.'
When 'American Pie' happened, I was so lucky to get that opportunity and I just tried to do a good job in that genre. But the films that inspired me as a kid were, like, Malcolm McDowall in 'A Clockwork Orange.' He was my hero.
I'm awful at hockey.
Working on the 'Ice Age' movies, I'm really proud to be in them.
I grew up, probably like a lot of people, on cartoons. And I never thought I would have the chance to be in an animated movie. It's good also to show the world my sweet side with them.
I'm the kind of guy that if I don't work out, I will get bigger and look like one of the guys who used to play sports.
I consider myself to be a good guy so it's not hard for me to play that.
I don't know anything about this engagement stuff. I never thought I was going to get engaged.
You have to have fear to take risks - and I want to at least try.
I'm still trying to figure myself out as an actor.
I don't know where the loyalty lies in baseball. You really don't have to protect each other much, unless there's like a bench-clearing brawl. In hockey, it's important that they look out for each other.
