They're trying to beat out this movie, the Ring, which is a similar idea. Our movie is about a website you visit and die in three days. Their movie is about a videotape you watch - and die in three days.

That's the danger of having too much success. You lose that magic, that feeling of not being in control, which I feel now, it's too controlled.

I guess what I learned the most was to feel lucky with what I have been able to accomplish and what I have and to feel humble about the people I have been able to work with.

I've read some scripts, but I don't read as many books as I should.

I started acting before that when I was about 13 or 14.

Vampires to me have always been very sexy.

I don't want to just be in the normal kind of teen movie.

It used to be you did TV or you did film. Now it's like a media blitz.

But, I didn't get my first break until I was 17.

You have to feel the bad to be able to feel the good.

Nuclear arms is pretty scary because that could end the world. I'm more interested in that stuff than I am Bill Clinton. I mean, I think Bill Clinton is a good president.

Yes, I definitely plan to direct at some point.

I wouldn't want to do a whole movie with effects.

I liked getting the best villain award. I thought that was funny.

I play guitar and I love the Beatles and melodic music.

Basically, at some point, one day maybe you can expect to hear some of my music. I haven't really done that yet because my younger brother is a musician and really talented and I want him to come out with his music first.

I've mainly been in dramas, so this is one of my first comedy kind of performances in Cecil B. Demented.

I think acting is only one part of the piece of the movie. I'ts an important piece, but I'd like to be involved in all the other aspects of making movies.

In a movie script, you know what the moments are that you really have to hit it out of the park.

I've always found, when I was younger, that the older guys - the guys who weren't of my generation but were 20, 30 years older than me - were the cool guys.

I've always played different kinds of roles, and I probably played more vulnerable parts when I was really young.

I'm used to having big movie cameras in my face; I pretend that they're not there.

Living at the beach, it's hard to get out of the sun.

Being an actor is pretty much like being in the circus.

My mom always wanted me to do movies where I played, whether I had flaws or not, guys that had a good heart.
