Donner likes what he does and enjoys being on a set. He doesn't have to do it, its not like he has to make the rent. When I get to be his age and still enjoy what I'm doing like him, I'd be lucky.
Flying would be pretty awesome. The super strength thing would get annoying, because when you go to tie your laces you would break them.
For me, I've always taken being on a set as my school, because I've been working since I was ten.
I never went to school, so they just print out the lines, I do them. But that's what I loved about the book, the science of it all.
I wanted Dragnet to be on longer, because then they might make a DVD of Dutch. We could do the commentary together.
I'm a Goonies guy all the way. But The Omen is one of the scariest movies.
I'm really into whatever comes my way, really, and never plan what I want to do, but I'll always take a part that makes me feel good.
If did go back to school, I would want to learn another aspect of the entertainment industry like to become a producer or an agent, you need a law degree.
Real love is more than a physical feeling. If there's even the slightest doubt in your head about a guy, then forget about it. It's not real.
The Exorcist doesn't get me, but The Omen does.
The first Matrix genius, the second one, what's up with the dancing? I haven't even seen the third one.
You can't think about things you want to change. Just be yourself.
You just have to do your own thing, no matter what anyone says. It's your life.
Everybody tries to be exactly the same. I think being an outsider is a good thing.
