I've managed to make a living in a very ridiculous business, and that's fine with me. The trick now is, after you've been in it for a while, you still have to remember to have fun.

More quotes by Bruce Campbell
I see parody as another form of comedy. If you are making a comedy, there are a lot of different ways to do it. I'm not necessarily always aware of my quote-unquote persona when doing things like that. It's more, What does the character need at the time? I'm certainly drawn to certain types of material, there's no doubt about that.

A cult classic is one that has been fully embraced by an alternative audience, not the popular audience.
Bruce Campbell
It's very gratifying that someone likes what you're selling.

The Way I See It: If you're worried about getting a job-or keeping one-start a company of your own. By doing so, you'll reap the rewards of your hard work and you'll only get fired if you fail. This is the land of opportunity. Live in it.

Such is an actor's life. We must ride the waves of every film, barfing occasionally, yet maintain our dignity, even as the bulk of our Herculean efforts are keel-hauled before our very eyes.
Bruce Campbell
For a long time I was embarrassed to say I was a 'B' movie actor, ... But now that I see what Hollywood's putting out, I realized 'B' actually means 'better.'
Bruce Campbell
The prospects were depressing: Adulthood meant that I'd have to stop having fun and do something I didn't really want to do for the rest of my life – which was apparently a considerable chunk of time.
Bruce Campbell
People who sleep around to get roles are frail and scared and most likely without talent. It's their own little horror show that only they can deal with.
Bruce Campbell
I think having simplicity doesn't always mean that you make a good movie. I have a theory that a movie that's easy to make is hard to watch.
Bruce Campbell
Too many actors are trying to be cool: they're trying to do it with their hair, trying to do it with the color, trying to do it with clothes, or some bullshit attitude you're either cool or you're not, that is my theory. If you have to try, it is too late.
Bruce Campbell
I like the TV format. I like how fast it is.

Genres pop up and get hot and then they die down.
Bruce Campbell
I'm not interested in making a $60-million studio film with a bunch of 24-year-olds telling me what to do.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun

I prefer a much looser style. Any time a writer thinks he has all the answers to how someone should talk or react or end a scene, it's a spontaneity - killer. I don't get making sure you get every word right in some stupid speech just because a writer sat there and did it.
Bruce Campbell
You're not looking for the Rolls Royce and the big fancy trailer. Those are supposed to be the byproducts of having fun and then getting good at what you do.
Bruce Campbell
Cult films last forever. I have been in plenty of films that no one will remember, so it is nice to be in some movies that some people do, and that they pass it along to the next generation I'm meeting kids named Ash now.
Bruce Campbell
As far as my favorite sites, I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much.

Actors are always going to have a little bit of themselves in everything.

I think the Internet is the single greatest revolution to come around in a long time. It's so convenient, it's frightening. I can definitely see why some people don't leave their house anymore.
