The genre of fantasy is about magic and occult characters.

My power is the ability to control water molecules and form them into ice.

There are rumors, rumors, rumors. I'm always the last one to know about these things, literally.

Getting to play superheros is a pretty good job.

Our first scene is sort of a reunion between the X-Men characters, which establishes everyone's relationship to one another, sort of like a recap for all those who have forgotten since the last movie.

I read the comics long before I was ever involved with the films.

I just got Kill Bill: Vol. 2. I've watched it like eight times in the past two months. I just love the scene at the end between David Carradine and Uma Thurman.

Being a villain is great, even though I've only gotten to do it a few times.

It doesn't get more iconic than Terry Fox.

Why would people spend good money to have my pants?

The genre of fantasy is about magic and occult characters.

I never could have planned this, and now I'm in my ideal situation career-wise and just sort of where I am in my life, and I'm super happy with how everything's going.

Ultimately, I think it's just going to get you that exposure, get you in that door, get you that recognition that will hopefully get you opportunities.

I think it is important that you care about the characters, and you are not just waiting for the next action sequence but have a vested interested in what happens to them.

Above and beyond having the social life, to have a core group of people that you work with and spend time with and learn how to work with is a nice thing.

So it wasn't actually that bad, it took a couple of weeks to sort of get used to uh, you know, standing around and pretending to have ice shoot out of your hand, but once you got used to that it uh, it was actually not that hard.

No designer has really wowed me yet, I'm into other people's recommendations when it comes to fashion.

Some people talk about screen kisses being strange or uncomfortable. But I think that I got along with Anna well enough that it just happened; it was a fun day of shooting.

You get bored if you do the same thing too much.

Comic books and The Chronicles of Narnia. My mother used to read those to me and my twin brother growing up.

Lord of the Rings is a good thing for us because it opened the door for the genre in general. Le Guin's stories are very different from Lord of the Rings.

I think it's more fun to play a hero with an edge.

Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality.

As a teenager at high school, I felt like an outsider.

I would love to be able to pursue music as a career but honestly, I'm just not good enough.

I'm a video game buff.

Instead of being on teams at school, I was preparing for auditions.

Playing a character who's dealing not only with a superpower but having a normal relationship is easy to associate with, because I feel that everyone has been through it.

I'm 25, so I've already gone through what my character Ged goes through, though it's on a general scale because I haven't studied at a wizard's school.

I think Ian McKellen made it all happen, because he used to throw dinner parties and invite everyone over.

Every day on set, there was something to watch and learn.

The real excitement and big deal for me started when I got cast in the first X-Men, which was sort of a fluke.

My interests were in fantasy more than comics growing up.

You can also make explicit certain social problems which, again, would be prejudged or not encountered at all in real life, because people have set up defenses against it. Fantasy allows you to get past defenses.

I love biomedical science, I love astronomy, and you can't really do much with those in a fantasy setting.

Fantasy is toxic: the private cruelty and the world war both have their start in the heated brain.

We in this Congress have a choice. The American people have a right to exercise a choice on this issue, as to whether our men and women will continue to fight and die in a war based on deception and fantasy, or to start bringing the troops home.

One fantasy is that I just do a Don Roos movie every year if that's possible. If he'd have me.

I mean, I don't know anything else that I would try to do, but it's a very frustrating thing to do, because you are trying to take what's a fantasy in your head and make it live through the minds of 200 people.

I think sex is very interesting for most people, but I'm interested in sex as a way of communication, I'm not that interested in the fantasy version of a sex scene.

There is no winning or losing, but rather the value is in the experience of imagining yourself as a character in whatever genre you're involved in, whether it's a fantasy game, the Wild West, secret agenst or whatever else. You get to sort of vicariously experience those things.

Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.

Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels.

I think I'll give it up, the fantasy is over, I wanted to play Spiderman, Peter Parker.

Fantasy is the only canvas large enough for me to paint on.

For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror. We've had some very good Fantasy films in that time period, but for my tastes I still haven't seen fantasy done to absolute perfection. That is the hope I have in this project.

The idea of it becomes a little freaky if you're dealing with someone who has trouble differentiating between fantasy and reality, but that's a concern no matter what kind of movie you're dealing with.

Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can. Of course, I could be wrong.

I believed totally in the possibilities implied in the series. I never thought of it as fantasy. Far from it.
