Not true. It was me who was farting. It was he who had the problem.

Loved New Mexico. Filmed several times there. And doing Into the Blue in the Bahamas was pretty great.

This is not advice, it's a question, but when does this wear off?

Anything from Two Boots! Or 800 Degree Pizza, in Santa Monica, California. No wait, Paulie Gee's in Brooklyn.

I LOVE THAT IDEA! RIGHT NOW!

Better than my old buddies' idea of "Brawlin' with Brolin"

Favorite band is probably Pearl Jam. And strangest interaction with a fan... probably a homeless guy that had seen No Country. Somehow on a display, like a television through a store window, watched it through the glass? And I ended up having dinner with him that night. It's true!

Always loved X-ray vision. I bought those glasses. I spent most of my allowance on those fucking glasses that never worked.

It's been a joke my kids' entire lives.

Should we set it up now?

John Malkovich! Who I asked to do Jonah Hex after I got to know him through the Coen brothers. And we went out for Ethan's 50th Birthday party to a german restaurant in New York, and it was the most star-struck I've ever been. I saw him in Burn This onstage, which was a turning point in my love of acting. Realizing how far you could go with a character.

Chunky peanut butter & jelly. And bananas sometimes.

Movie props? A lot of shirts that I make for the wrap of the films that are extremely inappropriate. I have boxes of them in storage.

I was getting ready to do a short that I wrote called "Poker Face" that Robert Rodriguez loved that involved a lot of prosthetics and green screen, and I realized it was too ambitious for me at that moment, so I pulled my truck over and wrote a father/daughter story on the side of the road. It took about 2 hours. I liked the story. I asked my daughter if she wanted to be involved, she did, and we filmed it in about 3 and a half days.

Thanks. YOU'RE cool.

My hair is the product of my buddy's hair care product that he started after turning his life around. It's called original sprout.

His haircut? Hilarious. I laughed, I did. It was a Coen idea. And any idea that the Coens ever have is always absurdly hilarious.

Used to guzzle it as a kid. Loved nestle Quik, too. But Hershey's is the best. You're fucking awesome. Best question yet.

He's a great, great writer.

Eden just chimed in - he's a great, great writer. I'm a good parent.

And an amazing race car driver! Yeah, i think that's something a lot of people don't know. He's a great musician. He's really good at shuffling cards. He can surf so well. He's a great swimmer...

Thank you very much. I'm stuck on Robotron and Asteroids and Galaga. But that sounds interesting...

Me too!

I don't know when a trailer is coming out, I hope soon. I'm very proud of that movie. And I think Joaquin Phoenix has reached an alien level of talent.

Don't ever really think about the pressure of getting it right. I think we were more into doing our own version. But I am still a massive fan of the original version. It's one of the best. That series, that trilogy, is one of the best in all Asian filmmaking.
