I just hope that theaters remain. I think there's something very wonderful about getting into a dark room with a bunch of people. There's something cool about that. Brings us all together in one room where we can experience all those emotions.
Jeff Bridges
Like most of the movies I get involved with, I resisted as long as possible, I really try to figure out why I shouldn't do it and this one had plenty of reasons not to do it.
Jeff Bridges
I kind of quit surfing when I got out of high school, but then a few years ago I started to take it up again. I'm not an expert by any means, but it's so wonderful to get out in the ocean and get a different perspective on things.
Jeff Bridges
As you become famous you lose some of your anonymity, which is wonderful for an actor to have because you can observe people and also people don't have such a strong sense of who you are and that sort of thing.
Jeff Bridges
So I have this word for much of what I do in life: 'plorking.' I'm not playing and I'm not working, I'm plorking.
Jeff Bridges

Jeff Bridges
The problem with the designated driver programme, it's not a desirable job. But if you ever get sucked into doing it, have fun with it. At then end of the night drop them off at the wrong house.
Jeff Bridges
You liked the freshness of it, c'mon try it and I said oh God, I read it three of four times and finally I said all right, I want you guys to organize a reading and I want you to be there to see how terrible this is not going to work at all, so we had a table like this, and read the script, and it was just great.
Jeff Bridges
I'd maybe done about 12 movies when I decided that this was what I was going to do.
Jeff Bridges
Generally speaking I would say I enjoy the smaller films more because there's a less sense of pressure and often the material is more unusual. But in Iron Man it was kind of like both worlds colliding because there was a lot of improvisation, not that we improv-ed in the scenes but to discover the actual scenes themselves.
