Commercials Quotes

Our fathers were actually business partners in the same real-estate firm, and we got together and thought, How can we get a movie together and get distribution and create a new movie genre? We started by making satires of commercials Picture Quote #1

We’ve been trained to spend money since we were born with all these commercials with toys and G.I. Joes and Transformers.

I think the challenge in hour television or half-hour television is that the more it’s around, certainly on commercial television, the less time you have to tell stories these days, because the more commercials they’re putting in Picture Quote #1

Commercials are so contemporary and up to date that when you’re involved in that visual world, you can’t really go backwards Picture Quote #1

I started home school around sixth grade, but I’d only done a couple of national commercials. I remember I had this Spalding commercial with Paul Pierce from the Celtics, and I used to go to school, and people made fun of it. It wasn’t even cool to be an actor; you got made fun of Picture Quote #1

It took me nine years to get through the fourth grade. When I got into television commercials, I had to take a crash course in reading. I was 32 years old, and I couldn’t read the cue cards Picture Quote #1

The problem with doing commercials is that the only thing good enough for me to sell is myself, and I stopped doing that once I kicked my coke habit Picture Quote #1

I did tons of theater in school, and then when I was 16 and got my driver’s license, I started driving to Los Angeles, along with my friend Eric Stoltz, who was a year ahead of me and was doing the same thing. So we had the same manager, and we started auditioning for things and doing commercials when we were 16 Picture Quote #1

One survey that I saw that was published I think in Variety or Electronic Media within the last three weeks says that now the average hour of radio in the United States has 18 minutes of commercials Picture Quote #1

A lot of the commercials that I was doing were very slice-of-life, emotional, documentary-style, not big and cinematic and ultimately like the kind of movie I wanted to make Picture Quote #1

My aunt was a fashion model and I happened to go to her agency with her, one day, when I was five. A talent agent said, You should come talk to us. I did a few things. I did an indie movie and commercials, and stuff Picture Quote #1

When your buddy tells you a movie is good, that’s worth 2,000 commercials Picture Quote #1

Good films are not made by accident, nor is good photography. You can have good things happen, on occasion, by accident that can be applied at that moment in a film, but your craft isn’t structured around such things, except in beer commercials Picture Quote #1
