Interview : Robert Downey Jr – Moviehole


"My whole thing is that that I saw ‘The Dark Knight’. I feel like I’m dumb because I feel like I don’t get how many things that are so smart. It’s like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I’m like, ‘That’s not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.’ I loved ‘The Prestige’ but didn’t understand ‘The Dark Knight’. Didn’t get it, still can’t tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I’m like, ‘I get it. This is so high brow and so f–king smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.’ You know what? F-ck DC comics. That’s all I have to say and that’s where I’m really coming from.”

I wish there was audio :dead:

I think part of Statham's appeal, for some reason, is that he is exactly the same person in every movie. He's consistent as hell in that one aspect. His furthest departure being Chev Chelios

I believe I saw a trailer a year or two ago where he was supposed to be playing a country boy or something and he was just Jason Statham. I doubt he gives any fukks about the actual acting bit lol. He's not bad, he's not exceptional. He just is.
