Text Quotes
You can’t fix a bad script after you start shooting. The problems on the page only get bigger as they move to the big screen.  (Script Quotes) Whenever I get a good script, I don’t care whether it’s telly or theatre or big screen - I’m not bothered.  (Script Quotes) My biggest thing is telling a truthful story, something that is rooted in something and is very honest. If I read a script and you want me to take off my top, and it doesn’t serve a purpose, then I’m not going to do it.  (Script Quotes) When I’m the one who sits down and looks at the blank page and writes it out all the way, then I’ll call it my script.  (Script Quotes) I try to research or make up for myself what happened in any character’s life. From when he was born until the first page of the script. I fill in the blanks.  (Script Quotes) After ‘Radio Flyer,’ to this day, every family-oriented script or script with kid actors comes across my desk. That’s just Hollywood: you get pigeonholed, and it’s both a blessing and a curse, but you live with it.  (Script Quotes) I would love to be in ‘The Hunger Games.’ I’m one of the few people who haven’t read the books, because unfortunately, I’m not a big book reader. I do read a lot of scripts and I read the script and I loved it. So, yeah, I’d love to be in ‘The Hunger Games.’  (Script Quotes) How I envy writers who can work on aeroplanes or in hotel rooms. On the run I can produce an article or a book review, or even a film script, but for fiction I must have my own desk, my own wall with my own postcards pinned to it, and my own window not to look out of.  (Script Quotes) More of ‘The Bourne Identity’s script was taken from the events of the Iran Contra, which my father investigated for the Senate, than what was taken from Robert Ludlum’s novel.  (Script Quotes) If you put someone in a room with no script to direct, they’re just going to sit there. Writing scripts is the execution for a show. Then the director takes that and hires people. It’s like trying to build a house without any bricks. You need the script. I could build the house, but I have to know how.  (Script Quotes) City lights shine bright on my complexion, Self-reflection...red hairs flashing at the intersection. Life is a green light, one star, no script, Supporting actors...fresh peaches, no pit.  (Script Quotes) To try and stand outside the marriage, I’d say we have complementary capabilities. I do the hustling and the business. I do more script reading. I handle contracts.  (Script Quotes) I think maybe one reason why ventriloquists are looked down on is because it’s very difficult to be funny. I think what happens is that people get a dummy, they learn the technique of ventriloquism, they memorize the script, they think they’re in show business.  (Script Quotes) I’ve always felt that I’m in a spontaneous business and if you script something, if you plan something, it will sound that way.  (Script Quotes) Some of the greatest actors on the planet are the most insecure people. Now I don’t know if that insecurity necessarily equates to a lack of confidence. Some people are just very shy individuals. You give them a character to play and a script, and you put them in front of a camera or on a stage, and they just go.  (Script Quotes) I am a quick study - I can memorize a script in an hour - but I can’t remember a name three seconds. I’ve even forgotten my wife’s name on occasion.  (Script Quotes) When I was eight or nine, I wrote a new version of ‘Peter Pan’ for the school play. They didn’t use it - I imagine it was unperformable - but as recompense for not doing my script, I was offered any role, and instinctively went for Captain Hook. I came on trying to be terrifying, but everyone laughed at me.  (Script Quotes) During long car rides to the set, after I study my script, I go onto my iPad to read books and play games.  (Script Quotes) I’ve never known a situation in my career where a terrible script turned into a movie that was out of this world or was a success.  (Script Quotes) In a play, you know where you start and end and all the stops you have to do, but in television, you can’t construct this carefully planned out arc for your character. You often get a script and you’re shooting it two days later, and you don’t know what’s going to happen next. It’s one of the harder things that I’ve done.  (Script Quotes) You read a script, you try and think through what is the best, most wide-ranging way of telling the story: who stylistically, character-logically, psychologically fits inside the world of what you’re trying to do. A lot of it, when you’re casting, is trying to get yourself in the head of a director.  (Script Quotes) Before I read the ‘Bloody Sunday’ script, I have to admit I hadn’t thought about it that much. There was probably even part of me which assumed there was no smoke without fire. That the Catholics who were shot must have done something to provoke such a response from the army. I was extremely ignorant of the whole situation.  (Script Quotes) I enjoy the details. I enjoy coming up with ideas for improving the script, changing scenes and deciding what locations and wardrobe should be - the process of making a film.  (Script Quotes) In my first film, we always tried to have a script and work in a normal way, but I was constantly changing things during shooting. Because I worked as a scriptwriter for 10 years, I understood that directors always wanted to change what was originally written, to improve on it.  (Script Quotes) Some people say that they read the first 20 pages, and then decide if they want to do the film or not. But, I have to read the entire thing ‘cause anything can change in a script.  (Script Quotes) It’s just I hate reading the description ‘offbeat’ about a character in a script, because I, along with Seth Green, Jamie Kennedy and a few others, have cornered the market on ‘offbeat.’  (Script Quotes) If I get a script that’s set in the jungle it goes to the bottom of the pile because I don’t think the playgrounds are going to be very good there! I’m really aware of how lucky I am but I have the kind of job where I can bring my child to work.  (Script Quotes) Too-broad questions, such as, What’s on your mind? are apt to be answered nothing nearly one hundred percent of the time. Be careful of slipping into psycho-speak, however. Kids pick up instantly your attempt at being a pseudo-shrink. Most resent it and are apt to tune out anything that sounds like you’re reading a script from the latest child-psychology text.  (Script Quotes) I first came across the script for ‘Macbeth’ between the ages of 11 and 12; it was the first book that shook my life. Because I did not yet understand that I could simply purchase it in a bookstore, I copied much of it by hand and took it home. My childhood imagination pushed me to feel like a co-author of the play.  (Script Quotes) When the children were little, I’d fly into L.A. for a specific work project, but then I’d leave again, and when I was home, I wouldn’t even read a script.  (Script Quotes)
