We don't pretend to disagree.

The result is a picture that represents so much of what I want and rarely get from a movie - a couple of hours filled with characters who are as exciting as the people I know in real life.

I'm not surprised that Spielberg was able to capture the heroism of Schindler; so many of his movies are about the better part of mankind.

John Goodman is more that just a big guy, he's a wonderful actor.

We don't pretend to disagree.

After 27 years, I walked out of my first one a few months ago. Black Sheep with Chris Farley.

Is this film more interesting than a documentary of the same actors having lunch?

But you know, really, if you think about it Roger and I and all critics really have one absolute essential part of our credentials and that is that you believe that that is actually what we think.

In fact, Cannonball Run II. I used to pick that as the worst movie ever made.

They know they got the TV ad, they know they got the name recognition, they know that they can do a tie in with McDonald's or some fast food outlet and the money is just gonna flow in.

That's probably when I get the most angry at American movies, when they just so cynically manipulate the audience without even trying to give a good story.

The only actor who I think probably might have possibly taken a swing at me if he could have would be Burt Reynolds. He used to call Roger and me the Bruise Brothers, out of Chicago.

We'd rather see a picture that we liked then dump on one we didn't.

For my 50th birthday, I got ahold of a new print of 'Saturday Night Fever.' I see it much more as a tough coming-of-age movie than as a disco story.

Going to a movie is a two-hour experience; at $7.50 for a ticket, you are valuing your time at far less than the minimum wage. If you don't understand the film, don't leave. If you understand it all too well and hate it, get out of your seat and walk up the aisle. You will feel empowered.

I would rather turn my head and cough than see any part of 'Patch Adams' again. The title of this movie should have been 'Punch Adams!'

I thought everything would be different in America. It wasn't.

I truly don't have any formula for the choices I make.

Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes adventures story tellers and singers of songs.

The good thing about having this illness is that it allows me to be a little bit crazy.

Building your own home is about desire, fantasy. But it's achievable; anyone can do it.

I get concerned when I see kids on their phones. They don't read enough anymore, anything longer than a tweet.

Motivated more by partisan politics than by national security, today's Democratic leaders see America as an occupier, not a liberator. And nothing makes this Marine madder than someone calling American troops occupiers rather than liberators.

All my brother Eliot and I did as kids was film sketches.

Every Bond girl has a certain charm, and sometimes - almost every time - that charm is more important than beauty. In the films and in life.

Silence never won rights. They are not handed down from above; they are forced by pressures from below.

Prudence does not make people happy; it merely deprives them of the excitement of being constantly in trouble.

By encouraging conservation, increasing investments in clean, renewable sources of energy, and promoting increased domestic production of oil and gas, we can build a more secure future for our country.

Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny.

I'd love to collaborate and write a song with Will Gallagher from Oasis. I think he's a great songwriter.

Some cowboys have to much tumbleweed in their blood to settle down.

Most women set out to try to change a man, and when they have changed him they do not like him.

Things are more like today than they have ever been before.

A lot of times, you had to beat the bullies at their own game. But the difficulty is not becoming the bully yourself.

I'm very lucky to live my life through a sport that I love. I'm in a very privileged position that my work is my hobby.

The whole institution of marriage itself really has no place in a progressive society.

I knew what I wanted to do when I was 13 and I had to go through four years of high school to get out. That's a blessing, because I never had to lay on my bed staring up at the ceiling going, 'What am I going to do with my life?'

It's hard for me to take care of myself, let's put it that way. I am my last priority.

Sometimes you just have to accept the fact that some people only enter your life as a temporary happiness.

I think we'll see, not only with Glass, but the watch wearables, with the contact lens, that each of these things have their own best purpose, but it will take more on our part and society's part to figure out what that is.
