Russia is very complicated. It is one of the most complicated histories. I could go on about this forever. It produces Dostoyevsky and Rachmaninoff and then it produces Stalins and Lenins. It is such a strange combination. I don’t know why that rant about Russia was necessary.

I have an aversion to remakes, which is ironic because I’m in two of them right now. When I went back and watched T3 recently, I thought we need to make a better movie. I can’t say I’m a fan.

I was a horrible athlete. My parents are athletes; they tried me to get me to do that, but I just couldn’t. I sucked. First I wanted to be a scientist, and I set our bathroom on fire. Then I wanted to be a basketball player and I’m a not-very-tall white, Russian Jewish kid. So that didn’t work out either.
