The truth is - I found myself doing these huge action-adventure movies, and um, and which are cool man. And I really love doing them. And thankfully I haven't had too much dialogue, because if I had I would have really made a mess of it. You know what I mean?

Failure is simply the non-presence of success. But a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.

Lord of the Rings was my first experience making movies and at the time, I had no ideas how movies were done. I thought that's the way they're done, so in a way, I had nothing to compare it to.

I'm trying to mix the cool, independent stuff with the big stuff, but it's been difficult finding the right roles. It's been an interesting ride as far as my career pendulum is concerned.

I wondered how they would top the Pirates and skeletons and moonlight, because that's a pretty cool concept.

Yeah, I'm kind of fit. And I'm quite careful about my diet.

The best way to look stylish on a budget is to try second-hand, bargain hunting, and vintage.

I'm always amazed at anyone's interest in what I have to say.

Life sometimes doesn't work out exactly as we plan or hope for.

I did send a girl a plane ticket asking her for a visit, I guess that's quite romantic.
