I was trying to get an audition for 'Walker, Texas Ranger' and they wouldn't see me. And I was crestfallen, because I really needed money. And to be told you're not good enough to be seen by 'Walker, Texas Ranger' is a tough blow.

I think one of the great things about 'Bridesmaids' is that it's a big studio comedy, but all of the relationships in it are so grounded that you're watching a real movie.

'Rectify' is really good.

I was a pretentious teenager, so of course I had, you know, 'Raging Bull' posters and all of that. 'Raging Bull' is not a pretentious movie, but me having the poster was a pretentious action. I even grew a goatee and had a Knicks cap, because I thought I wanted to be like Spike Lee.
Adam Scott -
I think 'Piranha' won't be in the guilty-pleasure category, because it's gonna be - well, yeah, maybe for some people. From what I've seen, it has a sense of humor about itself, and it's also really scary and really, really violent. I would call it a popcorn movie from the planet Popcorn.
Adam Scott -
I know that I am not entitled to anything, and when somebody thinks they are, that's a step in the wrong direction.

Every year, you can depend on having at least a couple really exciting Nicole Kidman performances, and that's a rare thing.

My upbringing was healthy and terrific.

Most of the time, I don't think movies of TV shows are a great idea. It's worked a few times, but usually, I think that what's on TV works on TV.
Adam Scott -
Just as a fan and a consumer, I think less of actors as one thing and belonging to one genre or medium. People do all kinds of things.
Adam Scott -
And if you get caught up in combing the Internet for what people think of you or how people perceive you, I think that's a slippery slope.
Adam Scott -
I got really into Martin Scorsese as a teenager, so then it was kind of the whole reason I wanted to be an actor. Just like tons of young actors, I think, get freaked out by the Scorsese/DeNiro movies. I loved all his movies in the '90s, too. Then I got a part in 'The Aviator' and couldn't believe it.
Adam Scott -
I love a good, poppy chorus.

I worked at Johnny Rockets. For one day. I had to quit because they said that anytime a particular song comes on the jukebox, all the servers have to stop and do this special sing-along and dance, and I just knew that I wouldn't be returning.

Chasing kids on the beach and sleeping is the closest I come to exercising while in Hawaii.
Adam Scott -
I just like staying at home and eating and watching movies and running around in the back yard.
Adam Scott -
I think people are getting more and more comfortable - watching content at home is blurring that line, because people are getting used to watching movies at home.
Adam Scott -
I'm a big consumer of media and content online.
Adam Scott -
I remember, the first time I played a parent was - I did a guest spot on 'Veronica Mars,' and they were like, 'OK, and this is your daughter,' and there's this little girl standing there. And I remember thinking, 'OK, this is weird... I guess I'm old enough to have a daughter.'
Adam Scott -
As far as base humiliation goes, acting is a tough business. It's a tough, embarrassing thing to do for a living when you're starting out, and you better not have any ego or pride, because that will be wiped away clean by utter devastation.

-
I mean, I love action films, you know, good action films.
Adam Scott -
If I look at it and feel there is someone who can do it better, I won't do it. Whether it's 'Party Down' or 'Piranha 3-D,' I'm going to bring something to it to make it special.
Adam Scott -
The divorce in my family was really amicable. There were no fireworks. It was all sort of behind the scenes, if you will. None of us kids ever saw any argument.
Adam Scott -
I've barfed in movies before. It seems like it always ends up being Campbell's soup mixed with something else.
